Best Seafood Restaurants in Surfside

This place is Phuc-ing phenomenal in every way. Was the food phenomenal? Phuc yea! Was the service exceptional? Phuc yea! Were the vibes, decor, and music on point? Phuc yea! Our party of 7 ordered almost everything on the menu and each dish was FIRE: PY Noodles, Dumplings, Broccoli Bao (my fave), Octopus, Eggplant, Chicken Wings (runner up fave), Papaya Salad, Watermelon salad, Million Dollar Rice, The Duck, The Short Rib, several orders of Tostones (because they were thin and crispy and perfection). Every single thing was fresh and delicious and every person at that dinner loved it all. Tough to find a venue that checks all the boxes and pleases a group - well this place exceeded my expectations in every way. Arionne, our server, took amazing care of us and made our experience rock solid. Get your life together and go visit this place ASAP. And when ppl ask you if it was good, you'll say the same thing as me.. Phuc yea!

Like that server did not rush us and was very knowledgeable

Lovely atmosphere!! Great food presentation…solid service !!!

I’ve visited The Palm a few times. Very traditional venue and menu. Well delivered, though: Great food and amazing wine list! While our server was excellent and very helpful, there’s something about the overall experience that leaves me feeling a bit out of place. My wife and I, in our early thirties and not originally from the U.S., have noticed that the typical clientele leans older, more traditional. Unfortunately, this sense of being different felt amplified during our most recent visit. Despite our efforts to engage and enjoy the atmosphere, it seemed like other guests were given preference, making us feel overlooked. The host’s reaction — both this time and on previous occasions — came across as dismissive, almost as if we didn’t quite belong. This lack of warmth made our experience less welcoming, even though we had every intention of enjoying our time there. We acknowledge that we may not be the target audience, but we hope for a more inclusive and respectful approach in the future.

Great restaurant. The food was great and service was excellent. Buts it’s not actually on the beach
