Best restaurant for seafood?

[Laurajane6]

Our 180 day mark is on Friday and want to find good seafood to book whilst we are there as we love seafood!

What are your recommendations?

The buffet at Cape May Cafe was very good and reasonably priced. The dishes are not very adventurous, but were properly cooked and there was a nice variety. The beef was outstanding too!

Coral Reef.

Agreed. We love Cape May.

We've never been but I've heard nothing but rave reviews about Boathouse.

Flying Fish

Yes, Flying Fish is very good.

Flying Fish without a doubt. you can go from safe to adventurous and all are very well done.
Coral Reef has an amazing view of the aquarium, but the food is average at best.
Have not tried the buffet at Cape May, so can't comment.

Another vote for FF as it has an amazing setting, professional service, and the food to match. Save room for dessert...this time it's worthy.
Other possibilities are M. Paul's for that beautiful looking fish filet covered in potato scales or the escargot appetizer; Yorkshire County's fish and chips; Artist Point's salmon (haven't eaten here yet but hear great of it); any of the Japan Pavilion's restaurants offer amazingly light and non greasy shrimp tempura as well as sushi; Boathouse's raw bar; Tiffin's fried whole fish and Chefs de France has some lovely sounding gifts from the sea offerings.

I'm sure I've missed some places, LOL.

Bluezoo, Boathouse, and Flying Fish are all favorites of ours.

The crab legs at Cape May are always a draw for me and they have a rotating list of other items on the buffet as well.

I agree.

When some people say that they like seafood, they mean fried seafood - in that case, I would look at the Garden Grove at the Swan for their weekend (Thursday /Friday /Saturday) seafood buffet (Dining Plan not accepted).

It somewhat depends on what you are used to as far as "good seafood" goes. Are you from the northeast and expecting good cold-water fish from the Atlantic? If so, you'll be disappointed.

. . .pretty much.

Thanks for all your inputs!
After looking at the menus we’re going to try get a res at Flying Fish on one of our last nights

Flying Fish

VERY correct - for what I refer to as "FISH fish" - something that swims, with scales .

Now - a lot of folks love seafood... but what TYPE? "FISH fish", or "SHELL fish" (lobster, clams, crab, mussels, etc).
BEST lobster at WDW is at an unlikely place - Shula's . Another Shellfish option is Paddlefish, though we personally believe their offerings have degraded since the days of Fulton's.

Just us - we really would LOVE it if Flying Fish expanded their SHELL Fish Menu . Barring this, I continue to bug Shula's to start offering serious CRAB .

It's nice to hear so many good reviews for Flying Fish. This has been a favorite of ours for many years and we were considering going on our trip in December, but many of the reviews on allearsnet.com are negative. Some are from a while ago. Adding it back to our short list

 

[LaidBackDad]

Agreed.

Agreed with all of these. Blue Zoo is really a notch above the other 2. All three are head and shoulders above other seafood places like Coral Reef or Cape May.
