Seaside Seafood — Restaurant in Port Arthur

Their BBQ Crabs won 3 YEARS in a row! Well deserved, because it’s literally the best! They have really good food all around but the honorable mentions that my family loved is the BBQ Crabs and fish, shrimp and oysters in their delicious cornmeal batter has been their original classics. Their crawfish fried rice is special because it tastes like a fried rice dish had a baby with a crawfish boil, it’s SO good. Salt and pepper fried baby crabs (seasonal), shrimp, wings and gizzards are a favorite in my family too. I haven’t been able to try their boiled crawfish, shrimp and dungeoness or snow crabs yet but my cousins in town recommend them to everyone. I just get excited for all the fried dishes that I don’t have room when I visit haha!

I drive all the way from Baton Rouge, LA to eat here and I can’t say enough good things about it. They were the first original John’s Seafood and then they built a brand new building and rebranded to Seaside Seafood. I’ve been following them for years when I come into town to visit family and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND...

Their Barbeque Crabs, Fried Oysters and Crawfish Rice are delicious. Good Customer Service! The original owners of John's Seafood (Bluebonnet). Their food is NOT as good quality as John's Seafood signature dishes. Fried Fish is under seasoning and cooked too soft. Shrimp Fried Rice is NOT GOOD at all. Seaside's food is VERY OVERPRICED. I guess by them building a new facility cause them to up their prices. By Seaside upping the cost of their food, Customers should get better...

I can't speak to the atmosphere or service, I ordered online for pick up. I'm 67 yrs old, and I can honestly say these are the best burgers that I've EVER had!! The taste is Great, and they are very moist. They're not over cooked, you can actually order them the way you would order a steak. I strongly recommend the Mushroom/Swiss burger, it comes with grilled onions. The burgers are a full 1/2 lb! There are some really good gourmet burgers in town, but nothing like...
