As a result of it being restaurant week, only a very limited menu was available. The salad I started off with was good, but I've had as good in many a cafeteria. As for the main course, the sea bass, it was terrible- it sat in a bean stew from a can, and the breading on the fish, something which wasn't mentioned on the menu mind you, was terrible. But dessert was the show stopper. We weren't even going to order dessert, but we had to because it was part of the full course which you're forced to take part in at this time of year. Anyways, the key lime pie was just one of those little, frozen ones that comes in a tin that you get from Trader Joe's. Thing is, it had not been thawed properly, as it was just a soup, like a pudding.
I didn't really want her to, but my mom felt the need to say something to the waitress about this, and while both women handled it very maturely in my opinion, not a few minutes later, upon our departure, did the waitress begin speaking to us in a very rude voice while we were paying.
Heed my warning, folk: never, ever go to this restaurant

We love soft shells, but are often underwhelmed. Not tonight. Seafood Unlimited has the most amazing soft shells, perfectly made. Highly recommend. But you cant go wrong anything here.Cerviche with tender shrimp and scallops. Kudos to the chef. This guy knows how to cook!

We were looking for restaurants and Fell upon this location. Instantly from the door we love the ambience and the staff were so welcoming. We were advised about the blueberry lemonade and Was blown away by my taste buds. The waitress Suggested the grill salmon couscous and I was in paradise.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️????????????????????????????????????????????????

We were here three or four years ago and though unglamorous in looks, the seafood was pretty good, so on a cold night when we were starving and didn't want to walk too far, I felt this would suffice. Once we were seated at our wobbly, smeary little table, I saw to my chagrin that it was tawdry pre-fixe menu, I wanted to take my family and bolt, but our water was served and the owner was standing around in this small space and we were trapped. As an "amuse-bouche" we were served filmy hummus likely from Trader Joe's with crumbling chips. Secondly we had a salad, which was small, but thankfully good, because this was the only fish any of us could eat. Unfortunately , my son had a chowder that tasted like Campbell's. Next came our main dishes, two of them sea bass that had been frozen, thawed, breaded and fried and placed atop canned vegetables. One of my sons had the rubbery steak, which tasted like it had been sitting in water, probably to defrost it, so that it had no taste at all. My husband had a mushy salmon on overdone noodles soaked in a bath of soy sauce. The desserts were a joke. They didn't even bother to take them out of their supermarket foil tins to try and trick us. The runny key lime pie was hilarious. I'll post a photo of that doozy. Obviously the owners know about the supermarket origins of the food, and the staff are complicit, too. It's a tiny place, and every one in the wings knows that no food here is freshly made. We all felt as if we'd been had. I'd had the foresight to order a $20 bottle of warmish plonk straight after I saw the food, so that when we left $250 poorer, I was numb to the pain.

Went here for a birthday with a group of my friends and we each had really good dishes. Everyone enjoyed their entrees. I like the decor of the place but I kinda don't like the people that come in which is not the restaurants fault. We even shared the ice cream cake with the waiter! Place could be better in terms of seating but I booked a reservation for restaurant week and I'm excited to review the place again.

Went here for the first time during restaurant week Fall 2019 and loved it! The place isn't huge and is in a the heart of Center City near Rittenhouse. Plus, it's a BYOB! (So we brought our own wine of course). The food was great! We had three courses. We shared each other's apps, which were the Mac &cheese and chicken bites. For my entree, I got the salmon while he got the steak and shrimp plate. And for dessert, we got the bread pudding and chocolate mousse. By the end of dinner, we were so full. The food was delicious, cooked well and just the right portion sizes (especially since we had the three courses to complete).
Would recommend checking this place out when looking for great seafood restaurant options that's not your bigger places like Devon's or Osyter House. Plan to go back here again for dinner or happy hour.

Every bite of every course was delicious! Oh, the service was great. We never had to look around for our waitress. Hope they consider revamping their day to day menu to add restaurant week entrees and appetizers

I went to Seafood Unlimited during restaurant week. It was my first time. It's a small place nicely decorated. The service and food was good. I had a really good honey lavender cocktail. I would definitely go back and recommend trying it out. The one thing I would say is that the food could've been a little hotter. But I'll give forgive them because it was restaurant week and it was busy.

We love this place! The outdated photos on Google don't showcase how lovely it is inside! My wife and I went here for happy hour and the selection was fantastic! The oysters and clams were fresh and delicious, the shrimp and the ahi were to die for and the service was great! It was our first time ( visiting from out of town) and we will be back!

I had the swordfish and it was great!
The staff was awesome! Even though the place was pretty small and my friend and I were younger than 99% of the people there, they still treated us great.
