Where the locals come eat. Waitresses are knowledgeable about what tastes good and the daily specials. Oysters are popular and priced right for the lover twice a week. Beer is cold of course. Ambiance? This is where people come to eat at a fair price! read more

A local staple with fresh seafood. I haven't been here in a long while and then my coworker asked to go. We had the grouper bites To Go. And I've been back several times since! Food is fresh, fast, and filling! The decor is not super fancy, but it is hometown cozy. Everyone is friendly. Today, I went with my Mom and Auntie for brunch. We started with fried mushrooms (Be careful, they're hot! Cut them open first to let the heat out. Haha - don't learn the hard way, like me. Hehe) We tried the trigger fish (catch of the day), the snapper fingers, and the grouper bites. Comparing the fish, they were all delicious. Also had the special (Wed) of $9 oysters dozen. SO fresh! And a bowl of clam chowder. If you've never been, stop on in. All these "regular locals" can't be wrong. read more

Ambience was very cute, we went after the beach so it was a great vibe. Very packed but to be expected. Service was really good especially because it was so packed. Now the food was amazing, I don't have seafood much so arguably one of the best seafood I have ever had read more

The seafood was to die for and the service was a immaculate but the steak was a little to rare and was very stringy

I had the shrimp platter and my friend had the lobster and oyster specials. Everything was fresh and cooked to perfection. My fried shrimp wasn't overbreaded as can often be the case. It's the best I've had in a long time and I've tried a lot of the local restaurants. My friend was beyond delighted with her lobster and oysters. Fun thing they do is provide a largish trash container for shells etc to be tossed into. Also her dishes were served in large aluminum trays that gave ample room to make a mess, as one does with her two dishes. She was delighted. The service was perfection, our server Kara was attentive, friendly, with a terrific sense of humor. We'll be back!! read more

Place was great. Don't let the strip mall location fool you...we had the colossal low country boil as 2 adults and 2 kids (12/10) and it was fantastic. We did not get an appetizer or sides which we might have needed if we were all staring but we finished everything and it was great. We've tried places in the Panhandle, Low Country, Savannah, East NC, MD...this was just as good as a local hidden gem. Highly recommended. read more

I went in on Monday because they advertise 30 % off for all military and first responders. It say because we love our Military. One person I had the Original low country seafood boil which consisted of 2 pieces of corn which is 1 whole ear of corn 1 sausage link and 12 shrimp that the peal was so tight the meat was coming off with it and I had an order of fried mushrooms and a glass of tea. My total plus tip was 52.00 with tip. No 30% discount. I asked, I thought there was a 30% discount on Mondays? The waitress said that's only on certain things on the menu. So I thought maybe I just overlooked it, no I had AI do a search of the internet and it clearly said Mondays 30% off for Military and first responders. We love our Military my ass! Do go here. read more

A long time favorite for Jacksonville beaches locals. A lot of folks drive from town to eat here too. Small and sometimes crowded but worth the wait if you show up at a busy time. Their service is fast so tables usually turnover quickly and the wait time is usually shorter than what they quote you. Not a fancy place but good seafood, prepared well and fair prices. Can get most seafood items fried, broiled or blackened. Portions are large so ask for the lunch size portion if you are not that hungry. Lunch portions are still generous and I often ask for them during dinner hours. They have a good variety of fish (grouper, snapper, flounder are among the regulars) and also have catches of the day duck as triggerfish or sometimes wahoo. Blackened wahoo is my favorite but if they don't have that the grouper is good too. Of course they have shrimp, scallops and oysters as well as some specialities such as fried whole scored flounder or snapper which are very good if you like that sort of thing. They also serve beer and wine. If you haven't tried this place you ought to. I always take out of towners here to get seafood when they visit from landlocked areas. Never had a complaint yet about the food, some say a full bar would be nice but this place is just too small for that. read more

Don't miss this hole in the wall restaurant. Simple at the front entrance until you get inside where everything is a buzz. The menu is huge but the specials are on the chalkboard on the wall. It's there that you will find the best deals. If it says market price don't hesitate to ask...you'll be pleasantly surprised. The wait staff is super nice and on top of your every need. It's almost like they read your mind. It's not a fancy place but it is good ole, down to earth great food and service. read more

As usual always excellent food & Wonderful service. I got the lobster and baked potato and my husband got the pick 3 fish fingers & shrimp with coleslaw. It's not very fancy but clean and fresh. I highly recommend this place. read more

Stumbled on your restaurant today and had a wonderful experience. Super fresh seafood and stellar service. Liz was super. Couldn't have asked for a better time. read more

Definitely where the locals eat! The place was packed when we walked in but we scored a table quickly. This is NOT a chain restaurant - the tables are old and beat up and the overall ambiance is a bit lacking, but we came to eat, not decorate! Melissa was our server and she managed to handle us along with many other tables. We ordered drinks - two seasonal drafts for me and a rather passable Cab for my wife capped off with a Miller Lite and water for our table mates. Carol chose the Flounder dinner and said the it tasted like it just came off the boat! Lori had the Fish sandwich and loved it. ross and I each ordered the Seafood Au Gratin and it was excellent! Located in the back of a strip mall, it can look a little off putting but the food is terrific. Definitely a place to go when you are in Jax Beach. read more

So I found this place after googling the location of the church on the corner. I didn't know the actual one I wanted was across from this place. I also ordered the crab legs because when I called to find out if they were out, they said no, just no more 12.99 a la carte. They asked if I wanted old bay seasoning. Never heard of that, like where the butter sauce or mild? Lol The sides were a baked potato and applesauce. They gave me coleslaw. read more

We were up in Mayport and tried to get into the restaurant up there. They were packed as it was July 5th and seemed many people had the same idea. So we decided to head down to Neptune Beach / Atlantic Beach area. We saw the reviews for the Seafood Kitchen and other places. Sinde we really wanted to get seafood platter, the Seafood Kitchen won the decision. At 2:30 pm, the place was still quite busy and we got the last table. The inside is really nothing to look at. Just some tables and decorations. Service was good. Our waitress answered our questions about the menu and then took our order. I got the 2 choice platter. Fried Mayport shrimp and broiled grouper with a baked potato and cole slaw. The slaw was typical. The bake potato was super hot and stayed hot the entire meal. The shrimp was excellent with just enough batter and a good size. The grouper was also tasty. It also comes with 2 hush puppies. Overall: Food = excellent Service = very good Ambiance = okay Price = very good I would deinitely go back when we are in the area. read more

Wednesday night reasonably priced oysters. Hubby and I had four dozen between the two of us and then share a low country boil with side of hush puppies. All was good, beer cold and service quick and with a smile. We had about a 2minute wait. Since we love oysters we will be going back! read more

This is definitely an old school cafe type feel. If you prefer fried fish - you'll probably like it. We had blackened shrimp and mahi. The shrimp was good. The mahi was a bit overdone. read more

On vacation from Arizona and went to two other tourist traps before I found this gem. The fish, food was all amazing as well as the service. Only problem was the clam chowder, but they credited off asap. Order everything and anything else. Ambience was great for a little hole in the wall. This was exactly the restaurant I was looking for. I had the blackened trigger fish, shrimp cocktail, and fried mushrooms. They even have marshmallow fluff for the sweet potato if you want it. read more

I happened upon this seafood restaurant in Neptune Beach. It's quaint, friendly, and the hospitality is great. They provide a lot of seafood options. All of the seafood is fresh. I don't typically eat a lot of fried food, but if it's fried food you want they have it here. The calamari was my favorite menu item and the greens. The fish could have been seasoned more, but I understand to accommodate the masses less is best. They have garden salad options which were also tasty and fresh. If you're in the area it's worth a try. read more

There seems to be ALOT of employee turnover here. I frequent Seafood kitchen often because my Mom loves to eat here (sometimes multiple times a week!) I've seen numerous wait staff come & go over the past several years. Could possibly be the median age of the staff vs the avg age of the customer group. Young vs older Restaurant is ALWAYS busy. Food is good and never enough room to finish it all! One complaint about the food --- the raw oysters have been ridiculously small the passed few times we've ordered them. Personally, I feel like the ambiance is lacking. I feel like the restaurant is so small and they try to cram as many people in as they can at the same time. It seems like you're sitting on top of each other! Bathrooms ALWAYS seem unkempt. read more

My mother brought one of our mutual friends here on a whim and they both loved it. I was skeptical of the place but that was only due to my own ignorance. She wanted to go back here for her birthday and I was open to the idea, what the heck. I'd check it out. In the past, I'd head over to The Fish Co. and not even give this place a second thought. I've changed this line of thinking since then. The place inside was pretty small and real hole-in-the-wall looking so in my mind right then, I knew the place must've been good. Seeing their awards on the wall quickly shut me up. Also, I didn't know that they were a sister restaurant to OP Fish House. Now you have my full attention. We sat at a four seater in the corner near the front. The staff is really sweet. Our server recommended their Mimosas to us and the Berry Mimosa was right up my alley. Mom had a sweet with lemon and they brought her extra lemons. The server even refilled her tea when it was half-way full. Talk about attentive. We started with their mozzarella cheese sticks which were meh but still good. I had decided before I got to the restaurant that I was gonna try their Triggerfish if they had it available and luckily they did. I don't remember having it before but now it's on my list of whitefish I like. This fish was seasoned and cooked perfectly. No blandness or burnt-ness. Also shoutout to whomever did the collard greens because they were on point! My mom was afraid to order them as a side with her Stuffed Shrimp dinner due to knowing that "not everyone knows how to prepare and cook'em right". These were super cleaned and nicely seasoned. Our food took a little longer than normal to come to our table but our server let us know that the chef apologized for the wait. She stated that he had to do a big, complicated order ahead of us so he comped us desserts. Much appreciated. I took home their Key Lime pie and much of the meringue on top melted, but I happily ate it either way. So if you're heading to the beach and want some good seafood at a good price, definitely stop by here. I'll be back. read more

Went for lunch on a Monday when all other seafood places in area seemed to be closed. Got seated almost immediately. Waitress was attentive and answered any questions about menu choices and was pleasantly surprised to learn they offered lunch portions. All 3 of us were extremely happy with portions and quality of food as it was delicious and served in a timely manner despite a heavy lunch crowd. Happy to say i was a visitor and friends that live in Jacksonville had never been but said they will definitely be returning! Great choice for seafood and very affordable! A side note the hush puppies were absolutely amazing! read more

We've been coming to Seafood Kitchen in Atlantic Beach for over 30 years, and honestly, it hasn't changed a bit -- in the best way possible. It's got that very beach vibe: laid-back, no fuss, no frills, and full of regulars. The kind of place where the servers have been around forever and probably know your order before you sit down. The food has always been solid. We usually go for the Captain's Platters -- fried shrimp, fish, oysters, the works. Always hot, crisp, and not overly greasy. The Seafood Casserole is another favorite -- creamy, rich, and full of shrimp, scallops, and flaky fish. Simple and comforting. The fish sandwiches are a dependable lunch or light dinner, and on weeknights, they often have oyster specials that are worth timing your visit for. One of the little things that makes this place special? That cheese spread and crackers they bring out as a starter. It's so simple -- nothing fancy -- but it's oddly addictive. Just a nice, familiar start to the meal. And don't sleep on the hushpuppies -- golden brown, tender inside, and they come out just right. There's a good selection of beer and wine, and prices are very fair. Service is steady and no-nonsense -- they're not trying to upsell you or recite the nightly specials with flair, they're just trying to make sure you're fed and happy. If you're looking for white linens or a "modern twist" on seafood, this isn't your place. But if you want classic coastal cooking, run by people who've been doing it for decades and doing it well -- Seafood Kitchen is exactly where you want to be. read more

Came in to order out. The place is very casual and lots of locals. The staff was very helpful. Now the food, I ordered grilled trigger fish, seafood platter without the fried oysters, baked potatoes, onion rings and coleslaw. The grilled trigger fish was delightful but the seafood platter and hush puppies and onion rings was blah! I am not sure if the food tastes better eating in? I know fried food tastes good but I wasn't very impressed at this place. I may have to give them another try. read more
