Stepping into Seasurf Fish Co feels like finding a laid-back coastal gem where the rhythm of the ocean subtly shapes the mood.

Whether you’re coming early to secure a quiet table or dropping by during the lively happy hour buzz, there’s a comforting familiarity in the way Oceanside flavors are celebrated without overcomplication. The scent of grilled fish mingles with hints of garlic and citrus, promising meals that feel both familiar and just a touch adventurous.
What makes Seasurf distinct is its balance between casual convenience and heartfelt cooking. The menu reads like a tribute to the coast’s bounty—seafood stews rich with shellfish, vibrant shrimp dishes with a hint of ginger spice, and classics like lobster rolls served with a delicate slaw that surprises with its light, refreshing bite.

Fresh seafood, with minimal fuss. Order and pay at counter...felt a little like Noodles and Co, but for fish. The oysters were delicious...no pictures because they were gone! Clam chowder was not the best I've had, but still pretty good. The seafood cioppino was amazing If you want a variety of everything they serve in a delicious stew, that was it!

I do have to say it’s the first time I’ve had a Sea surf slaw with no mayo and the flavor and was really refreshing. I am very impressed. Thank you. Oh my gosh.

Love this spot for a casual dinner. We go early to avoid the crowd because it's a self serve (order at counter and find your own table) situation. It's reasonably priced and tasty. Love the poke nachos, shrimp rice bowl. The oysters have been just average the couple of times I tried it here which is a bit disappointing. They also have a happy hour with smaller plates at very reasonable prices.

We went for Happy Hour and had got fish tacos, fried calamari, poke salad, cheeseburger, garlic wings, chowder fries, and oysters. The fish tacos were nice and crispy but the fish was also soft. Fried calamari was crispy but it was salty. Poke salad tasted good and was soft. Chowder fries were good and so was the garlic wings. Oysters were very refreshing and had a nice sauce with it. Overall, food and service was good and would reccomend.

Great taste, location, seafood, prices, service!! Definitely recommending this restaurant!! Prices are great even off of their normal Monday through Friday 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. happy hour!

Happy hour oysters are a must!!! Great prices, very tasty food but it like dining in a storefront. Regardless of the sterile and uncomfortable atmosphere, the seafood is super tasty. Whatever you do don't ask them what selection of wines they have in from what vineyards. They have no idea what vineyards they carry. It's really quite ridiculous. Regardless, I do recommend this place especially for their happy hour.

This place totally hits, especially during happy hour. It can get pretty busy, but that just means it’s a popular spot! I love coming here because the food is always fresh and super tasty. What we ordered: • Oysters • Poke Salad • Poke Nachos • Fish Burrito • Fish Tacos • Wings • Fries • Shrimp Tempura • Clam Chowder • Mango Michelada Now that I’ve listed the items it sounds like a lot for two people but to be fair we did visit them a couple of times while in the area! The vibe on a breezy day is really nice, great atmosphere, nice breeze, and good energy. Just a heads up, it can get a little warm inside since they don’t really have AC (or maybe they do, but the doors are always open). The sunlight coming through makes it even better, though! The only thing I’d say is the wait can be a bit wild. The bartender was also the person taking orders at the counter, which slowed things down a bit. She was super friendly but was running around asking everyone if they needed anything else, sometimes it felt like she was stretched thin with the line out the door. Come early, around 4 pm, that’s when it’s smoother sailing. Overall, love the spot, great food, good vibes, just a little patience needed during peak times!

This place hits the spot if you’re missing Hawai’i’s food culture. Lived in HI for 19 years and can honestly say the food is authentic and delicious fish, shrimp, poke. Portions are very generous. My goal is to try everything on the menu.
