Waterside Seafood Company 777 Waterside Drive, Norfolk, VA 23510

"The fish and chips was $24 and I only received small two pieces of fish that looked like they were straight from the freezer section. Menu said it came with remoulade sauce, and I never got any. I asked the server and she didn’t know what that was so she brought me tartar sauce instead. Hotel restaurants are usually highway robbery, but this meal was absolutely pathetic and not even complete as advertised on the menu. Avoid this place if you want to receive anything of value."

"Food here was OK. It was Christmas day and they didn't have a lot of help so that could be the reason. 3 tables were seated including mine and it took about 2hrs. Only serving sandwiches no dinner. Will give them another when it's not a holiday. Got the crabcake sandwich and fries."

"Food was good. Despite a very limited menu for this day, probably due to the quantity of guests expected due to a conference, there was entirely too long of a wait to get the food. The food was all able to be pre-prepared for ease of meeting demands. The waitress apologized profusely about the delays. It wasn't her fault. It seemed to be a management issue that was the problem. So many of the other patrons had the same problem!"

"Great lunch service from Mia today...wonderfully personable! Also a nice view of the working Elizabeth River. The appetizer Crispy Calamari was more CRISPY than calamari, but made great croutons for a delicious side House Salad! My Flounder Sandwich was tasty & a good portion & the Turkey Club was very plentiful too (slightly over-toasted the "wheat" bread - gums got a bruisin'...LOL!). And I will return to try other offerings in the future!"

"Last week during my 6 night stay I came here a couple times and I will say I never had a bad meal. But I will review one of my visits. I came here on a busy night and sat at the bar. Still had a great view of the water! My bartender was Felix. He was very friendly, knew a lot about the menu, and making drinks. Never had a problem chatting and always gave fantastic service even when it was very busy. Seriously one of the best bartenders I’ve ever had. Hands down!!! Onto the meal. For starters I decided to order the Fried calamari. Wow this was good, full of flavor, and it was a huge portion. It was sprinkled with cheese and came with a nice dipping sauce! For my entree I ordered the grilled chicken quesadilla. It was served with salsa and sour cream. Let me tell you, this was very good. Cooked perfectly inside/outside and full of flavor. From The two types of melted cheeses to the roasted red peppers and onions. So good, I should have added the guacamole. With the huge portion of calamari I couldn’t finish my entree but I def saved it for later. Next time I’m in the area I will def be coming here again. A+ service and A+ food!"
