The 10 Best Seafood Restaurants in Long Beach (2026)
This list ranks the 10 best seafood restaurants serving the Long Beach area, using a Bayesian-style score built from Google review ratings and review counts. The ranking was updated in 2026 and balances a business’s average rating with how many people have weighed in, so both highly rated newcomers and long-standing spots can appear. Long Beach’s dining scene spans harbor-front dining, casual seafood shacks, and neighborhood staples, so this roster aims to reflect that variety while relying strictly on public Google review data.
This ranking is computed from Google reviews (our method). Listings marked Partner are paid advertising spots: they sit alongside the ranking without changing its order.

Frequently asked questions
How did you determine these rankings?
We used Google review averages weighted by review count (a Bayesian-style approach) to balance a restaurant’s star rating with how many people reviewed it. That method helps prevent a few very positive or negative reviews from skewing the list.
What should I check before choosing a seafood restaurant in Long Beach?
Look at recent reviews and photos on Google to gauge consistency, check the address to confirm neighborhood or waterfront access, and verify hours and reservation policies on the restaurant’s listing or website.
When is the best time to call or visit a seafood restaurant?
Call during mid-morning or mid-afternoon to avoid peak service hours and get quicker answers about availability. If you plan to visit on weekends or holidays, making a reservation or arriving early is a good idea.
What factors should influence my choice besides ratings?
Consider location (waterfront vs. neighborhood), menu focus (shellfish, fish, or general seafood), price range, dietary needs, and whether you want a casual counter service or a formal dining experience.
