We were having a great time the other night when who walks in but Gracie Abrams. Sp? Abrahams? It made our outing that much more enjoyable as my wife is a big fan.
We went early, without a reservation.
While we missed out on the last patio table available, we got a nice table for 2 inside. My 1.5lb steamed lobster was OUTSTANDING! Steamed perfectly, absolutely no water in the shell, which is the benchmark of steamed correctly. This was the sweete
My husband and I had a nice lunch by the water.
We were really craving lobster rolls and some seafood. We ordered a hot lobster roll and a cold one, both were delicious. We also got some clam chowder and clam strips. Overall, we enjoyed our meal!
Great seafood close to Norwalk
Very awesome seafoods. I love the spicy tuna tartare a lot and so does the chips on the side. Great cornbread as well, love the sauce a lot. Service is nice, just a little bit expensive.
Boy oh boy.
I love this restaurant more than just about anything. I've lived in Rowayton for the last 30 years. As everyone from the Rowayton-Darien area knows, Darien has a detestable superiority complex. We here in Rowayton don't care because we k

Get reservations! This place is a hot spot with delicious food and excellent service. On a nice evening, the outdoor seating is perfect. Their new cocktail barge, The Pearl, is fun ! Can't wait to go back!
My family has been coming to the Restaurant at Rowayton
My family has been coming to the Restaurant at Rowayton Seafood for years, and it remains our go-to spot for special celebrations - this time, a birthday dinner that was nothing short of perfect. We started with the hamachi crudo - yellowtail dresse
Wonderful food at a scenic location.
We had terrific seafood outside on a patio next to their boat slips. Allowed us to bring our dog too!
The perfect seafood experience.
Stunning location. Fresh food. Fast service. Friendly all around. This place gets packed quick so get there early. Valet parking. The market is a great place to stop in for quality catch to enjoy later. Fair prices!
If you love people-watching, this place is five stars.
For food and service? Not so much. My wife and I were seriously underwhelmed by our meals and completely overwhelmed by the parade of drunk rich white people dressed like extras in a zombie bar scene sponsored by the J.Crew summer catalog. Highlight
Lovely
This place is delicious, and it's near the water with a great view. The front desk is nice, and the neighborhood is beautiful to walk around in before or after your meal. The oysters were good.
Delicious and a great way to kick off our coastal grandma
Delicious and a great way to kick off our coastal grandma week! Patio was puppy friendly, and food was delicious. Even when it started to drizzle staff made sure we were covered with the umbrellas. Food, service, and coastal vibes were all 10/10
Fantastic restaurant on the water.
Fantastic food, excellent service and a wonderful waterside setting. Everything is very fresh. Wine list is fantastic. One of the very best restaurants in the area. Reservations a must Thurs-Sat.
Off beaten path Norwalk seafood gem
Exclusive on the water lunch experience with top notch menu. Enjoyed the Rowayton lobster roll, the kind with warm butter. Fish dip also a highlight – – ask for it. Valet parking convenient and a must. Can’t beat the vibe, out of the way Norwal
Fab waterfront dining.
The restaurant is in a fabulous setting on the water. And, while we love to sit outdoors when possible, there isn’t a bad seat in the house. The food was outstanding but the staff get the very highest marks. We were greeted at the door by smiling f

I've had some very good meals at Rowayton Seafood over the years, but during my most recent experience, I had steamers so sandy that I gave up eating them halfway through. I know that with steamers you have to be prepared to encounter a bit of sand p
Busy and Vibrant
The view is spectacular and the service efficient, but the restaurant is always crowded and noisy. I find the portions far too large and so ordered two starters which were more than enough. It is pricy but the fish is always fresh and very tasty.

Rowayton Seafood has been added to my list of favorite spots for waterfront dining! The views were stunning and the food was equally as delicious. Their hot lobster roll is one of the best I've had, and the same goes for the roasted oysters. We order

I had high high hopes for this place.
I'm truly disappointed. The 2 stars are for the servers and and hostess for being friendly and attentive. The food was greasy, awful, mostly tastes frozen, with no flavor. In addition, I had awful heartburn the most of the late afternoon. I'm not
Went here for my birthday.
We had a reservation and were sat promptly. The service was great and the food was delicious!!
The three of us went there on a Sunday night.
We were there at 5 PM but the place was packed already. The food is good so is the service. We had a lovely view of the sunset by the water. The only downside was the parking.

We chose Rowayton Seafood to celebrate our first
We chose Rowayton Seafood to celebrate our first anniversary, it was our first time here and WOW we will be coming back. The ambiance, the service (the food came out so quick and pipping hot!) They knew it was our anniversary and made it so special.
We absolutely love this seafood restaurant.
Sitting outside is always preferred. Everything from fresh oysters to lobsta rolls. Oh yes Lobsta and more. Friendly servers make the experience a winner every time.
Best seafood restaurant in the area.
Food and service were great. My mussels were perfectly steamed and seasoned and the swordfish was like butter. Maria, our server, was very friendly and attentive. Beware of the price of cocktails and a drunk guy who hangs out by the exit when you lea
Great fish and chips
Three of us enjoyed the fish and chips and the house burger. Great setting, very picturesque. Ordered some salads to go with the mains, they didn't materialise. To be fair, we never mentioned it due to the large portions. Likewise, we weren't charged
great seafood and location.
We were visiting family in Norwalk and had dinner at this outstanding restaurant. located on the headwaters of Fivemile river, the location, food and service were great!!!
A Fall from grace, can happen; yesterday it was at Rowayton Seafood.
Yesterday, May 27 at 4:15 PM, the setting was epic, riverside with small docks along its perimeter. The orders placed were: Delicious Several rounds of Reposado/watermelon and jalapeño infused tequila cocktails, IO ordera a Grey Goose Martini, sti

Haven't been here in quite a while, so we weren't sure what to expect. Making reservations isn't the easiest as you have to go on to their own site- and availability is like non-existent. We started with soup:Clam chowder and lobster bisque. Very goo

Nice view and location on the water (parking is a nightmare). Staff was very pleasant. Food was average, especially for the price. Lobster bisque was barely lukewarm. The lobster roll was good (I've had better) and the french fries were crisp and nic
Magnificent marina views.
We ate outside in marina gazebo. The food was seafood at its best and quite fresh. Nice spring to fall locale. Have yet to eat in main dining room but it's about the food. Will return. Make reservations!
It Is Just Not the Same
We have been coming to Rowayton Seafood for over 20 years. It has always been one of our family celebration locations—birthdays, anniversaries, kids home from school, kids leaving for school, etc. We have become friends with various past hosts an
Excellent Seafoof Restaurant on the Waterfront
We usually eat lunch at Rowayton Seafood once a week, occasionally dinner. Why? For the seafood. It’s fresh, cooked properly and tasty. In the past two weeks, I’ve eaten the Barramundi and fresh caught Porcini Encrusted Yellowfin Tuna. Bot

Not only is this one of the most scenic restaurants ever, but they have some of the best food I've ever had! All of their dishes are exceptional, but our favorites were the Tuna Sashimi Flatbread, the Shrimp/Lobster Spring Rolls, and the Yellow Tail

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Rowayton Seafood Restaurant and Market Norwalk at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Rowayton Seafood Restaurant and Market Norwalk page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* EternalAnt36, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* EternalAnt36 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to EternalAnt36 for any questions Peter may have as EternalAnt36 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* EternalAnt36 now uses their connections at Rowayton Seafood Restaurant and Market Norwalk to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If EternalAnt36 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, EternalAnt36 receives the $200 reward which is credited to EternalAnt36's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Rowayton Seafood Restaurant and Market Norwalk!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
