Best Seafood Restaurants in Las Vegas (2026)

Las Vegas seafood is a desert-city paradox, 280 miles from the Pacific, but the city's seafood bench runs the full format range: Cajun-Asian crab boil (Bag O Crab, Cap't Loui), Baja-Mexican seafood (Bajamar), Strip steakhouse-seafood crossover (Ocean Prime, Don's Prime, Joe's), New England chowder (San Francisco Bay, Luke's), oyster bar (Bravo Zulu), and the chef-driven seafood-bistro alternatives (Water Grill, Cin Cin, Michael's Gourmet Room). The Strip seafood rooms are covered in the dedicated Strip Seafood guide; this list focuses on the city-wide bench.

Every room here is a seafood kitchen rating 4.5 or higher with at least 130 reviews. Fifteen cleared that bar; the 10 below cover the format range and geographic spread.

The thesis: Vegas seafood splits four ways, Cajun-Asian boil, Baja-Mexican, Strip steakhouse-crossover, oyster-bar specialist. The 10 below are rating leaders across all four.

№ 01

Weera Thai Food

8.6Exceptional

6805 S Las Vegas Blvd (702) 915-7888

Weera Thai Food Photo via Yelp

Bagged seafood, bibs, and Cajun seasoning, the south Maryland Parkway kitchen runs the focused boil format without distractions. Mixed seafood (crab, shrimp, mussels, sausage) arrives sauce-soaked in the bag, and the table-share format is the entire point. The southeast-valley regulars have adopted this as their boil rotation, and the kitchen has earned its footing in a format where the seasoning and the freshness of the seafood are the only variables that matter.

Bajamar Seafood & Tacos

8.8Exceptional

1615 S Las Vegas Blvd Las Vegas, NV, 89104 (702) 331-4266

Bajamar Seafood & Tacos Photo via Yelp

Octopus tacos on corn tortillas, Baja-style, with cabbage and crema, are what put Bajamar at 1615 S Las Vegas Boulevard on this list rather than one of the broader Mexican-seafood rooms. The kitchen runs the Mexican-seafood focus without padding the menu with land-based proteins, and the review depth signals the kitchen has held the quality under real volume.

Cap’t Loui - Summerlin

8.2Excellent

9430 W Sahara Ave Las Vegas, NV, 89117 (702) 410-9181

Cap’t Loui - Summerlin Photo via Yelp

Cajun-Asian boil in chain format at 9430 W Sahara, the sauce blends run Cajun heat with Asian-aromatic additions, which is the format's claim to distinction over a straight Louisiana-style boil. The West Sahara location pulls Summerlin residents on a Cajun-boil rotation who don't want to drive to the southeast valley; the chain format holds at this location.

Cin Cin Brewhouse & Seafood Bar

7.7Excellent

914 S Main St Las Vegas, NV, 89101 (702) 909-0906

Cin Cin Brewhouse & Seafood Bar Photo via Tripadvisor

A craft brewhouse running sushi in the Arts District at 914 S Main Street, the in-house beer program is what no other sushi room in the area can match, and both programs hold here. The Pirate Roll is the room's namesake signature. The brewhouse-and-sushi identity is rare enough that it earns its own category: most sushi rooms don't run craft beer, and most brewhouses don't do sushi worth ordering.

Ocean Prime Las Vegas

7.9Excellent

3716 S Las Vegas Blvd (702) 529-4770

Ocean Prime Las Vegas Photo via Yelp

Cameron Mitchell's seafood-steakhouse at 3716 S Las Vegas Boulevard runs the seafood tower and the prime bone-in ribeye as co-equal centerpieces, one decision doesn't crowd out the other. The CityCenter-area location places Ocean Prime adjacent to Aria and Crystals, and mid-week availability is better than weekends for reservation ease.

San Francisco Bay Restaurant

7.8Excellent

5725 S Pecos Rd Paradise, NV, 89120 (702) 476-2336

San Francisco Bay Restaurant Photo via Yelp

Bread-bowl clam chowder at 5725 S Pecos Road, the San Francisco bread-bowl service is the reason this east-valley kitchen gets the destination booking rather than the convenience drop-in. The kitchen makes the chowder the identity dish rather than a menu footnote, and the review base signals the customer base treats this as the chowder destination.

BESO Restaurant

7.5Excellent

4435 S Buffalo Dr Las Vegas, NV, 89147 (702) 202-1405

BESO Restaurant Photo via Yelp

BESO Restaurant in Spring Valley works a mid-tier seafood menu that holds up equally well at lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch. Grilled octopus is the kitchen's calling card, praised for execution and texture rather than treated as a showpiece; the Caesar salad gets the same attention, with calibrated dressing and garlic croutons instead of the usual filler treatment. Tiramisu closes the meal in line with a menu built on a European arc. Saturday and Sunday both open at 9 AM, giving the neighborhood a full brunch program alongside a dinner card that runs to 10 or 11 PM. The room reads well for date night or a long weekend brunch off the Strip.

Water Grill

7.7Excellent

3500 Las Vegas Blvd S Las Vegas, NV, 89109 (702) 832-4777

Water Grill Photo via Yelp

Water Grill in Chinatown handles the upscale end of Las Vegas seafood with a room built for celebration dinners and business meals alike, modern, date-night-appropriate, and comfortable holding a table through a longer conversation. The lobster roll anchors the menu, and the kitchen's black cod arrives as a main confident enough to be called out by name. Calamari opens the meal on a fresh note that sets the tone for what follows. The schedule runs from 11 AM daily, which keeps the room open to a proper lunch rather than dinner-only, with Friday and Saturday service extended to 11 PM for those dining after a show.

Fin & Feathers Restaurant

7.4Great

1229 South Casino Center Blvd (725) 204-9655

Fin & Feathers Restaurant Photo via Yelp

Fin & Feathers Restaurant, south of the Arts District, is a mid-tier local favorite built for the late hours rather than the early ones. Catfish nuggets are the standing order, cited by regulars as the reason they keep returning, and the rum punch gets its own mention as a drink worth ordering on its own merit. Chicken wings cover the casual side of the menu, fitting a room that runs anything-goes once the live music starts. Friday and Saturday hours push to 2 AM, a real late-night option in a stretch of the city short on them. Bingo nights and live-music evenings split the room into two different personalities across the week.
