Going to Los Angeles for a business trip or vacation? You will need to eat while you are there. Why not take in one or more of the top seafood restaurants that Los Angeles has to offer? Here is a list of some of the most popular seafood eateries around Los Angeles, in no particular order:

The Boiling Crab

The Boiling Crab puts the fun in seafood. Sit down at a paper wrapped table to chow down on fresh crab, lobster, crayfish, and hushpuppies. This is as close as you will get to a crab boil down south while you are in California. Wear clothing you do not mind getting food dripped on or wear a bib. You can choose how spicy the Cajun seasoning is on your crayfish. If you order two pounds or more, you get the corn on the cob for free.

Crustacean

One of the spendy seafood restaurants in Beverly Hills, Crustacean offers atmosphere with a huge glass floor aquarium that you have got to see to believe. The menu is a combination of French and Vietnamese seafood cuisine. Prices are high, food is fabulous. This is the place to go if you really want to make a great impression. Reservations are recommended.

The Hungry Cat

Isn’t this a great name for a seafood restaurant? Small and intimate, the Hungry Cat offers fresh seafood in a central Hollywood neighborhood. Menus change constantly, so stay on your toes. This is a great date restaurant. This is a popular spot for some celebrity watching, especially if you score a table inside the small dining room.
