Mid Atlantic Seafood

Mid-Atlantic Seafood has become my absolute favorite spot whenever I’m craving delicious, mouthwatering seafood. The moment you walk in, you already know you're about to be treated right. The food is always cooked to perfection — tender, flavorful, and just the right balance of crunch and softness. One the pricey side but the portion sizes are definitely worth it. My personal favorites are the stuffed tilapia, stuffed shrimp, and the catfish — each bite feels like comfort and quality wrapped into one. The sides are just as amazing: the teriyaki green beans and stir-fried squash are the kind of sides that make you look forward to the next visit before you’ve even finished your plate. The drinks are mixed just right — flavorful with the perfect amount of strength — and don’t get me started on the desserts. Their cakes and pies are heavenly, perfectly sweet and full of flavor without being overwhelming. Everything here feels homemade with care, and you can taste the quality in every single dish. If you’re looking for consistently great seafood with satisfying portions and memorable flavor, look no further — Mid-Atlantic Seafood is the place to be!

DO NOT EAT HERE! We ordered food from this restaurant and hair was cooked into the meatloaf. When I called to inform them of the issue, it was as if they didn’t care. This place has gone down. It’s filthy!

Ordered from Door Dash at 1:45 received cold food at 2:46. Sandwich was hard , egg was cooked in dirty grease. Shrimp and grits didn’t contain jumbo shrimp, grits was swimming in butter topped with cheese and dried parsley, not fresh green onion you see in picture. Door dash gave me refund of 11.00 for this 50 order. Didn’t receive home fries I paid extra for. Poor service from both businesses. Definitely an insult to receive 11. To throw away in trash. Will never patronize t door Dash or Mid Atlantic. You can keep your 11 credit to door dash account.

Ordered a Belgium Waffle platter with a half smoke and scrambled eggs and it was delicious. I ordered in so I can't speak to the service or the atmosphere of the restaurant but the food was satisfying.

I always order the same thing because it’s prepared perfectly everytime!!! The cinnamon roll French toast platter with homestyle potatoes. I didn’t know that it’s an actual restaurant because I always order through DoorDash but definitely my new breakfast spot!!! I wish they were open on Sundays though!

Ordered delivery via Uber eats. Fast pickup and the food was well wrapped to prevent spilling. Food was just okay, not the worst but wouldn’t order again. Chicken liver was decent, but the coating/deep frying masks the liver taste so if you’re looking for that, I would pass on this dish. Clam chowder was good; cornbread was average. Didn’t like the sauce on the green beans - too sweet. Green beans were also dry inside. Meatloaf and mashed potatoes - slightly below average and both a little dry. Cabbage with carrots was excellent! Not a lot of seasoning but cooked well and still has a good flavor.

Overall, our order was very good with my highlights being the yams, home fries, red velvet cake, and the soft shell crabs. The stuff shrimp was flavorful, as was the mac & cheese. The only con was the calamari, which was fried a little too hard for my taste.

We placed an order with uber eats. Our food was packaged to stay warm and with almost an hour delivery time, it definitely did its job. Food arrived hot. Everything was sooo flavorful. Large portions, it was like Thanksgiving day. So yummy. Will absolutely be ordering here again in the future.

This place was amazing for breakfast and lunch! I ordered shrimp and grits, French toast platter, deep fried Oreos, jalapeño poppers, chocolate cake and more that I'm forgetting too. But everything was so good!! I ordered for pick up so I didn't dine in, but it's a relaxed environment and easy to navigate. I had no issues whatsoever and would come back if I'm back in the area.

Terrible customer service. Food wasn't that great. I do not recommend this place to anybody. When I got my food I was pissed

I drove by here multiple times and finally stopped in. WORTH IT!!! I was not prepared for how big their portions are, they are very generous! The ribs were great. The mac & cheese was perfection. Seriously, everything is so good! Staff were so nice, and it was my first time, so they explained how the ordering process works. Highly recommend stopping in!

They cook their seafood on the spot. No frozen crap. Menu is full of many options as well

Came here while visiting friends and a friend said the food was good, lies! When you enter the restaurant, it is not appealing whatsoever. Certainly not a place to sit and eat even though there are dinning tables which appeared to be unkept. This place serves what one would consider "southern" food. I ordered the catfish dinner (4pcs), with fried rice and collard greens. The catfish was not seasoned at all and were tasteless. The collard greens were basic, no meat or anything in them and very soggy. The friend rice was actually okay. My friend ordered the veggie platter (Mac and cheese, cheese broccoli, black eyed peas with white rice, and candied yams). The veggie platter did not look good to me but my friend said his food was good, I doubt it lol. I did notice frozen crab legs in one of the showcases so I will assume that they also steam seafood as well. I am not sure nor will I return to try. Overall, I did not like the look of this place and the food did not look or taste fresh.

This review is for the breakfast that is only available online..... The French toast here is out of this world! It's sooo good. I have been ordering every week for the past month and they have not let me down yet. Whomever the chef is need a raise or we can get married because I need these French toast in my life! They are seasoned to the gods of seasoning. I highly recommend. Even the home fries are good! This food will definitely make you slap your momma!

Technically, this review is about Dessert by Mid Atlantic since this was listed as the name on Grubhub. I ordered from Dessert by Mid Atlantic (I assumed that it was a bakery of sorts) because it was one of the few places that delivered desserts after 7 pm. For our order, we went with the Red Velvet Cheesecake, Strawberry Cheesecake, and Apple Walnut Bread Pudding. Overall, I thought the desserts were kind of meh. The cheesecakes were edible, but they tasted a bit bland. I can't put my finger on exactly what was, but something was missing flavorwise. I thought the bread pudding was pretty tasty. Since the bread pudding was about $11, I was a bit disappointed with the portion size of the dessert. I wonder if the bread pudding comes with ice cream when you order in person at the restaurant, which should be the only reason why it's $11. While nothing was horrible with our dessert order, I have a feeling that I might pass on another opportunity to have desserts from this place.

I m never disappointed by their food my standard order is the 9 peice whitting with candied yams and callad greens this week i switched it up and added the Meatloaf. Pure heaven flavorful tender great portions. And the cornbread

Food was good. If I'm ever in the area again, I will definitely go there. The fish was fried perfectly.

I used to go here on the regular but they're prices are ridiculously high. I mean it's no longer you guys recouping from your losses during covid but now they stay this high smdh. I'll stiick with little spots like moms n pop stores or even IHOP A turkey bacon, egg n cheese with one side and a drink should not cost me $20 bucks. And get this if you order three crab cakes and 2, eggs and grits with NO DRINK, it should not come out to close to SIXTY DOLLARS!! LWTH!! Thanks but no thanks. Every dish is basically $5 to $7 dollars more than any place else! I'll pass

They never ever ever send utensils or condiment. This is the most ridiculous thing I ever seen. This is why I normally would never go to this location. I usually go to the one at Queen Chapel because they never forget your utensils and condiments. It can't be that hard.

Kind service, great seafood (anything stuffed is the correct way to go). And their smoothies are an underrated gem down here! A bit of a wait for food but well worth it.

I usually do a pretty good review...good, bad or indifferent. Today, I have received food undeserving of ANY feedback. This has never happened. Yes. It was THAT bad. The meal: *Butter beans (no seasoning AT ALL) *Cabbage (not one flake of seasoning) *Fried whiting (swimming in grease) *Fried shrimp (swimming in grease) Gave them a try because I'd gotten fried catfish from them before that was quite tasty. Oh well.

Great food and lots of it. The portion sizes are enough for two people. Tastes homemade! Service is always top notch.

Catfish was really crispy and flavorful. The kale and potatos were great.Portion were so huge,had to take some to go. It was very busy upon arrival and we had to wait for a while for the food. Apart from that,it was a great experience.

I ordered the cinnamon French toast platter on Uber eats. What I received was only eggs and bread they did not include my main protein or offer a satisfactory resolution to their error. The service is a joke and nobody reached out to me regarding this mishap.

This location is great. I have been eating here for many years. The food is delicious, the staff is friendly and efficient, and the restaurant is always clean. My favorite meal here is the fried catfish dinner. It is always fresh, perfectly seasoned, crunchy, and cooked exactly right (neither under or over cooked).

I've been ordering lunch and dinner and was happy with the services until yesterday !! I spent 100.00+ my fish was soggy fried croakers did not received my corn bread nor my fried rice but yet they still charge 100.00+ I don't know if it is under new management but the customer services sucks the manger was no help with so ever he tells me to bring the food back which I paid $14 for delivery the order should have been check before it sent out!!! UNHAPPY CUSTOMER WILL TELL ALL FRIENDS AND THAT I RECOMENDED TO YOU GUYS!!! UNHAPPY LONGTIME CUSTOMER!!

I really wanted catfish and from another restaurant close by but parking was a nightmare so I found myself back at Mid Atlantic. I had to update my previous reviews however, and in spite of the awesome communication and customer service from the manager Eric because of a few things I experienced during my last visit. I almost always try to place orders for carry-out online so I can to eliminate waiting in lines and tried to do just that for my order that night. I put everything in the cart, indicated that I was picking up and a tip option came up. Since I'm carrying out, I did not include a tip and proceed to the checkout screen...except that I noticed that the tip was still there. Thinking I'd made a mistake, I went back to the previous screen to remove the tip and despite my indicating a $0 tip, a 10% tip somehow made its way back into my cart. I tried to remove it a few more times but with no success. I could see someone proceeding to checkout and not noticing the included tip, which I'm hoping is an error and can be corrected. Because of the issue online, I went inside to place my order the old fashion way. There were 2 ladies in an exchange with the employee that took their orders because they'd been charged too much for the daily special and they were NOT happy about it. Lastly, while I always enjoy the catfish, the sides are another story and they need new recipes ASAP. Throw them all away and start over! Everything looks like it comes from a can and is minimally doctored up, if at all, to taste halfway good. My candied yams and Mac and cheese were flavorless even though, to their credit, they give really large portions. It's a waste though because both sides went into the trash. I will only order fried fish a la carte going forward or until something is done about those nasty sides.

The order looked like it was picked over the greens was all over top of the chicken. There is not potato salad and no cornbread the only thing they got right was the Half and half.

Lots of coughing & not enough sense to walk away! & not enough of changing those gloves! Workers not as friendly as they could be! Its good enough for some!

Too many choices. Food is common typical buffet food. You get a lot for a reasonable price. The seafood was not fresh. The sweet potatoes and greens were canned. I probably won't return.

Breakfast food doesn't disappoint! Only downside is the employees were talking over the food quite a bit, singing even.

I've been a few times. Twice pick up and once sit- down. Everything ordered was plenty and delicious. So much to choose from . Everything was tempting. Atmosphere or ambiance since it serves alcohol customs were enjoying themselves .Ordering was a breeze but you maybe waiting in a line. Food brought to your table took too long. So It's best to pickup . I am going back.

I ordered the baked turkey wings, mac & cheeses & collards with cornbread. Their food SLAPS, never fails you. Very well seasoned.

This place has it all...and I mean ALL the good! I love their red snapper combo, and let me say this...you get your moneys worth! We live right down the street and love getting take out from here! The staff are always working their butts off to make the food hot and ready. They've never screwed up our order and everyone friends or family come to visit us in DC, we make sure to order from here. The place is a bit dated and old looking, but who cares when the foods this good!

This is one of those places I've passed by all my life and never thought to visit. Coincidentally, I've visited their other location in Hyattsville not too long ago. I didn't realize it was the same establishment until I entered and saw that the inside was styled the same way and they sold the same food items. I decided to try something different at this location. I've been craving fried fish lately, so I decided to get the three piece fried whiting with two sides. For sides I got green beans and mashed potatoes, and the meal came with two slices of white bread. The food was so good! I was in heaven! I especially loved the green beans. It was seasoned with I think a teriyaki sauce and had mushroom pieces mixed in it. Each fish fillet was pretty large and it was cooked to order. The wait time wasn't too bad even with a good amount of people in the restaurant. I definitely enjoyed everything I ate and love how huge the portions are. It can definitely be shared with another person.

Catered an order through Mid Atlantic with only a 2 hour notice. The food was amazing! The timing saved me and pick up was on time and ready to go. Seriously can not recommend this place enough! I ordered a platter of fried shrimp, cornbread, Mac & cheese & sweet corn! My office couldn't get enough of the flavor.

Holy portion sizes! I ordered two dinners on the way home from running errands and not only got enough for two dinners but two lunches as well! I've had takeout from here before but only breakfast (which was incredible - highly recommend the pork chops and eggs). I had the baked chicken with kale and potato/onions and the bbq ribs with Mac and cheese and broccoli. SO delicious. I can't wait for my lunch leftovers today! I need to go back for some seafood :)

they had rats running around the dinning hall and when we addressed it they seem to not care or not have any surprise. very unsanitary

Haven't had their seafood but I ordered Cheesesteak Egg Rolls, a Philly Cheesesteak, and a Buffalo Chicken Cheesesteak on DoorDash for my wife and I all of which were delicious.

Their breakfast is a rip off. Just the most basic sandwich a bacon egg and cheese cost around $8.50.No sides nothing. Their prices are expensive.

On Saturday, August 11, 2024, I ordered a dinner at this location. It consisted of turkey wings, cabbage and black eyed peas. I usually eat in, but the other two ladies with me wanted to take it out. When I opened the container I saw what appeared to be a hair in the peas. I lifted it out with a spoon, only to find it was the antenna of a roach covered in the juice from the black eyed peas. I was horrified and sickened by the thought that I could have eaten it. I have been going to that restaurant for years and have never lodged a complaint, but this needs to be reported. The health department must mandate and shut down for extermination purposes. We know that pests exist, but when they are cooked in the food, that is out of control. Beware, check your food. Be vigilant. I will never patronize them again.

The cakes that they have are so fresh and delicious. I have been getting them now like every week for months.

The food at this location is on point. I ordered from here through DoorDash, and the meal traveled well. It was still fresh when it arrived, with the smells from the bag getting my stomach rumbling. I ordered baked Salmon with fried plantains and hush puppies as the sides. The salmon was excellent and in good portions. The plantains and hush puppies were plump and delicious.

Ordered two desserts from Mid Atlantic off of Uber eats. The chocolate cake was a 7/10. Great icing and pretty good cake. Definitely worth the price. The banana pudding was incredible 10/10. Nice big chunks of banana, good pudding and a hearty amount of Nilla wafers. I highly recommend the pudding. Serving sizes are totally reasonable, and the price is fair. I am so glad they are on Uber eats, I will order the pudding again.

Boomboom Shrimp Po'boy was tasty. I asked for lettuce and tomato on it but Next time won't cuz it gets slimy/mushy (due to the heat of the shrimp) BUT remove those and youre good! Shrimp were nice size and the sweet sauce with a lil kick came through even with the bread. Bread lightly toasted. The large peach drink hit the spot. Skip the wings. They were fried hard enough.

I love this restauran! it has everything! I can eat in, or Carry out. It even has a social area with adult drinks if you want to hang out. The food is very delicious and the service is great! when you look around you'll see they're very good about their restaurants being clean. I recommend this great place to everyone!!

Soooo you can't miss this place. It is shaped in a way it stands out. Parking was ok with me when I went in at 11:50am. When you walk in the store the amount of menus that are inside the carry out is overwhelming! Like seriously lol they do breakfast in here too! And they have dessert. Let me not side tracK you guys. Lol They have specials on a separate menu that saves you money and that is always good. The meal I ordered was the grilled seafood platter.. it's was $24 after tax and it came with a crab cake, two whitening fish, scallops and shrimp. Two sides and cornbread. It's ALOT of food honestly for what you pay for. I shared it with my mom and she was full from me splitting everything in half. The sides are ok! Collard greens are basic, their teriyaki green beans are amazing and Brussels mix! The sweet potatoes where huge and hard smh The chitterlings are BOMB!!! And they are clean!! Like that is the most dirty part of an animal but they hook it up! I don't like them but they let me saMple it and I bought a small cup for $9.50. And it was pricey but worth it. Will I come here again? Sure!! Good experience.

Have now ordered delivery through Door Dash twice with very split results. First order, about a month ago, was fried fish with French fries and corn nuggets. Oh, and coleslaw. When I tell you every last bit was AMAZING and delicious, I am not exaggerating. Second order was last night. I ordered fried shrimp, fries, and mac and cheese. The only thing I remotely enjoyed were the fries although there wasn't even a hint of crispiness. They were fully cooked but needed a couple more minutes. Now the shrimp, they were huge. But sadly the taste was very off putting and it made them inedible. I couldn't put my finger on it, but my husband said coconut. I don't think that's what it was because I like coconut shrimp. The Mac and cheese I couldn't even fry. It was a really odd color and so congealed. Hubby said it wasn't very good. So, I'm not sure if last night was a one-off or if I should just steer clear of these items. It's way too pricy for inconsistency like this. Sadly I rated the place 4 because I gave the driver her 5 rating. So felt I needed to weigh in here.

If you're looking for a hardy meal with plenty of food options then I would highly recommend MidAtlantic Seafood (Takoma). I've been to 3 other locations. The Laurel location is my favorite, but I also love the Takoma location. The serving sizes are large, and you will always have food left overs the following day. They also offer breakfast at this location. I the breakfast as well. Sometime it get busy so I usually call ahead of time, and when I arrive the food is always ready. They also cater!

Dessert there is underrated, to say the least. The banana pudding was an item I door dashed and it came promptly and was DELICIOUS. highly recommend this place.

I don't know who taught these folks to make soul food, but it is on point! They serve everything from fried fish to chitlins here, so if they don't have it, you don't need it. I've been coming here for years and always get the same thing, the fried perch dinner with mac and cheese and candied yams. It never disappoints. That fish tastes so fresh, and it's always seasoned and fried perfectly. The portions are generous and even on my greedy fat days, one dinner is enough to last me at least two meals.

I don't understand the negative reviews of this restaurant. I am from Mississippi and I'm very picky about my southern food. I had catfish, mac n cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy and collard greens. In my book, everything was tasty, and definitely a lot of food for the money.

Cold, felt old, not flavorful. Had the crab cakes which were mostly breading and the stuffed shrimp which tasted like straight oil. Should have gotten gravy on potatoes because they were thicker than a snicker.

Best fried fish whiting always fresh and fried to perfection. The yams are always a hit along with the collard greens. Black eyed peas are slapping meaning really good. The service is always good with quick service. The ambiance gives off back in the day school lunch cafeteria lol but it doesn't take away that food is always good. I always carry out but alot of people who dines in are older retired citizens. If you looking for some really good soul food please check this place out

So, the first time I had a poor experience with this restaurant was when they omitted half of my order...Like they never even made it. I decided to try again. Bad move. I ordered 2 lunch meals from Uber Eats. What I recieved was a breakfast order from Doordash with someone else's name on it. I wouldn't recommend ordering from Mid Atlantic Takoma Park through a delivery service. If you aren't walking in or driving up and checking your order before you leave, chances are, the order is completely wrong. You've been warned! Shout out to Kimberly B! I have your breakfast order from Doordash. I hope you at least got my order and enjoy it!

This is so FRUSTRATING! There is NO organization! I have seen people place orders after me and already have left with their food! WTF kind of service is that? All of the staff scramble around without any type of order! I watched some of the staff out LOTS inside of the dishes while others put a little bit! = no standard side amounts! I don't think I'll be back anytime soon! They just called 315 and 310 and skipped my order of 308! Social distancing is not practiced inside even though there are markers on the floor.

The place was huge with many many options. You might get confused with all the options. At least I got confused. There was little wait time but the staff was quick and friendly. Coming to the food we got the sea food special platter B it comes with 1. Chicken wings (4.5/5) it was moist and tender, the best item we eat. 2. Shrimp (4/5) slightly over breaded 3. Fish (4/5) it was cooked good but needs more flavor. We got the potato and sweet potato as sides Both were very good. Nice place to try.
