Seaside Prime by Paisano's

Another great dining experience at Seaside last night. The food is great and the staff are awesome. Excellent fresh fish selections. My favorite is usually the grouper with crabmeat but last night I got the fish fry combo. Saw it come out last visit and it looked great. Two pieces of cod, two jumbo shrimp and two nice pieces of perch. Tasty and cooked perfectly. My wife had the sea bass. We also had raw oysters and Rockefeller. Meghan was our server and Ben was the busser. Shout out to both of them for great service and for making our experience great.

Another delicious meal and a fun dinner with the wonderful staff. You can't go wrong eating at Seaside so make your reservation today!

If you haven't eaten either at Seaside prime or Paisanos.....You are missing out! I think these are hands-down, our favorite restaurants to go to between Chicago and Twin Lakes. We've never had a bad meal, and this one also did not disappoint. The owner goes between the two restaurants and he visited our table this night. We learned that the Seafood Diablo marinara recipe is one that has been passed down since his grandmother. The owner shared that the manager of Seaside prime is one of his best friends, who he would not trust anyone else with the recipes. They are a dream team. The food is always amazing and the seafood is always fresh. It is not easy to find this caliber of seafood in the Midwest! We love this restaurant, and cannot say enough good things about it.

We have dined here before a few times but always with larger groups. Our experience in that setting here has not be always favorable due to the limited size of the place. That said, we recently dined and sat outdoors. We have excellence service taking us in on a late reservation. The cocktails were very good and all our meals - ranging from grilled octopus to salads to rigatoni Bolognese were quite good. For a smaller group, recommended dining.

Great food.I'll eat much more when YOU ARE BUYING!,! Or please loan me 200$. I want BIG LOBSTER next time !

My husband and I made reservations for a Friday night. We were a bit early so we sat at the bar for a bit before our table was ready. The staff was super friendly and very attentive. The ambience was fun and cute, clean and spacious enough where we were seated. We order the arracini balls and oyster Rockefeller for an appetizer. They were huge portions and very tasty. My husband ordered the fry fish dinner and I ordered the seafood Diablo pasta. The seafood was cooked perfectly and my pasta was nice and Al dente. My husbands fish and fries were a bit oily seeing the oil on the plate in a puddle. It was tasty, but to see the oil, it was "a bit" unsettling. Overall great experience, and would recommend to others.

I've been here many times over the years, even back to when it was called Panino's. Seaside Prime is typically a solid meal and the restaurants itself is cute and has fun decor. The drinks are good and the food is good. It's not spectacular, and the prices are high. I actually really liked the greasy, soaked in butter bread, but no one at my table ate them because they were literally soaking in butter. My lobster roll wasn't stuffed enough, but it was delicious! Everyone liked their food and it was a nice summer night. I'd come back!

Service and food is amazing we had Macadamia halibut, prime steak and shrimp dejoun, great music and great ambiance.

Anniversary Dinner. There a few take-a-ways here. We were seated right away at the time we reserved which is a plus. We were greeted by our server and busser almost immediately. Water poured and their delicious fresh bread graced the table. Delightful! Our appetizers of Lobster Cargot and Arancini were fantastic no complaints there at all. We had a few questions for our server and she was knowledgeable. I asked about the Cappino, she said it is very good. I asked what people are saying about it she said people rave about it and ask for the recipe or try to recreate it! That was a really great sell because it's $44.00. I ordered it. My husband got the Crab crusted Grouper and Broadway Potatos. Everything came out in a timely manner. I was a bit thrown off as the Cappino didn't come with bread of any kind. The bowl was huge but didn't seem like there was enough in it to have that much empty space. The Grouper and potatos looked devine. I was excited about the Cappino and sipped the broth, it was bland which I found odd because it didn't even taste like tomato or fish broth, just water. No salt, nothing. I tried the shrimp, over done. Mussel, it was ok. The Squid tentacles can only be described as if I were biting into and through a chicken bone. This was a whole other experience for me as there are no actual bones here. Same texture. At this point I am contemplating my life choices while swallowing my fears and dare to try anything else? Yes! Of course I chose the wrong thing and picked up a clam! Still trying to save the evening I pluck it from its shell and pop it into my mouth only to have a mouth full of mud to ensure my meal is complete. As my husband flags down our waitress and I run to the bathroom shortly after that to get rid of what I could not save to show to the chef. The $44.00 credit and free Anniversary dessert would never be enough to get me to trust this restaurant again. It's a shame because we have enjoyed their food before. If it wasn't for the abhorrent disregard for the health and welfare of your customers I think that it would have been a lovely dining experience.

The food was not very flavorful. This is a seafood and steakhouse that does not serve mashed potatoes....I had high expectations for this place. Overall will never be going back. Many other places that serve much better high quality food.
