    Black Mussels with medium special sauce
    Sherrell L.

    Don't judge a book by it's cover. There are no frills or fanfare inviting you to patronize this establishment but the food makes up for the lack of bells and whistles. The menu is plentiful with seafood provided a variety of ways: hot, cold and fried. For just over $30 I got a JVille Special and Black Mussels and the way it was prepared.... absolutely delicious! I've never had garlic crab before and I'm a crab lover from Northern VA/ Washington DC area but I don't know if I could ever enjoy crabs any other way again. ***Don't forget to ask for special sauce and get it spicy (we ordered medium, but we could have taken it up a notch). The person who served us, M**** was very hospitable too. You must go to this place!

    Shrimp combo! The corn was so good with the garlic butter.

    While on a mini vacation the hotel front desk woman recommended this place. The neighborhood wasn't the best and upon walking in there was definitely a smell. The place was packed and busy. You could buy raw seafood on one side and the cooked food on the other. I ordered the small crab combo and my partner ordered the shrimp combo. It was so much food! Delicious every bite. The only downside is no napkins for the garlic butter sauce dripping off your fingers.

    Delicious!! I'm out here from Los Angeles for my birthday and after reading a few reviews I decided to go get some 'Garlic Crabs' with my sister.  We have a place called the boiling crab back home that is similar... but Baby when I tell you this food is seasoned to a T. It's really really good & the boiled egg is a good touch. The only issue I had is that about an hour later my stomach started hurting really really bad... I'm still on my way there now but I'm going to just pray my stomach doesn't hurt later on.

    Seafood boil had no real favor to it being that they are right next to coastal waters

    Moe and Mark were amazing. For some one who doesn't buy seafood often they made the experience comfortable and the prices affordable.

    Great selection and service Ample servings…read more Low noise levels Parking area with easy access

    I really wanted to like New Berlin Seafood, but after giving it two chances, I'm honestly left…read moredisappointed. On my first visit (a Wednesday), I waited over an hour just to be seated....only to find out they were completely out of oysters for the week. That was frustrating, especially after such a long wait. I decided to give them another shot this past Wednesday, hoping for a better experience, but unfortunately, it didn't improve. This time, I was told that oysters can no longer be prepared a certain way because it's considered a "special order." Instead, you're limited to however they choose to serve them.....either raw or lightly steamed. For a seafood spot, that's a bit surprising. Most people have a preference when it comes to oysters, and being told you can't customize your order feels restrictive. After speaking with the manager, she did agree to accommodate my request this one time (for one or two dozen), but also made it clear that moving forward, it wouldn't be allowed. That response didn't sit well with me....it gave the impression that customer preferences aren't really a priority. Between the long wait times, limited availability, and lack of flexibility with orders, I left feeling unpleased and unsatisfied. At this point, I'm not sure if I'll be returning.
