From the moment you step into Mayflower Seafood, you are greeted with the aroma of fresh, mouthwatering seafood and a friendly atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at home. What makes this restaurant so special is its dedication to providing customers with not just a meal, but an experience that delights the senses.

As a seafood enthusiast myself, I've visited many seafood restaurants across the country, but there’s something unique about Mayflower Seafood. The restaurant consistently delivers high-quality dishes with exceptional taste and portion sizes that leave you satisfied but not stuffed. The menu is an array of seafood favorites, from crispy fried shrimp to tender fish fillets and hearty clam chowder, all served with sides that complement the dishes perfectly.

A Wide Range of Fresh, Flavorful Dishes

One of the highlights of Mayflower Seafood is the variety and quality of the dishes they serve. Whether you’re in the mood for a light appetizer or a filling entrée, there’s something to satisfy every craving. Some of the standout dishes include:

  • Fried Shrimp Platter: Lightly battered and fried to perfection, these shrimp are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It’s the perfect balance of texture and flavor.
  • Grilled Fish: If you prefer a healthier option, the grilled fish is always fresh and seasoned just right. The smoky flavor from the grill enhances the natural taste of the fish.
  • Seafood Combination Platters: If you’re undecided or want to try a little bit of everything, these platters are the way to go. Packed with a variety of seafood items like shrimp, clams, and oysters, they offer the ultimate seafood feast.
  • Clam Chowder: A rich, creamy chowder that’s served piping hot, packed with tender clams and vegetables. It’s the perfect comfort food for chilly days.

The quality of the seafood is undeniable, and this is where Mayflower Seafood truly shines. The freshness of the ingredients is a key factor in what makes this restaurant stand out in a competitive industry. The staff takes great care in sourcing only the best seafood, ensuring that every dish tastes as if it were prepared by a seasoned chef who knows exactly how to bring out the full flavor of each ingredient.

Being from Philadelphia and the Jersey shore I'm a seafood snob. I ordered the broiled Mayflower platter and a cup of clam chowder. YUM! The chowder was a perfect thickness, clams fresh and spices subtle with a slight hot kick to finish. I usually don't eat hush puppies but these came out looking like onion rings so I thought the waitress made a mistake. After one bite I was hooked. The Mayflower Platter was delicious as well and so much food that I asked for a container. Our waitress was sweet and solicitous. I'm a fan and definitely coming back.

I don't understand these poor reviews. Ate there last night and the calabash shrimp (folks, those are tiny breaded shrimp) were fantastic! Great hush puppies and sweet tea and this is the perfect southern style seafood restaurant. If you're not from the South, perhaps you aren't accustomed to this style - but stop bashing this place. The food is great!
