Best Seafood Restaurants in Aptos

Cafe Cruz is the best. So many local restaurants have raised their prices considerably but Cafe Cruz has not. If they have raised their prices then it’s not enough to be noticeable. The food is consistently good and portions the same. It’s my go to place to take friends and/or family for a few decades.

Review for Pete’s Fish House Restaurant: I had the pleasure of dining at Pete’s Fish Restaurant yesterday, and it was an absolute delight! From the moment we walked in, the warm and welcoming atmosphere made us feel right at home. The menu offered a fantastic variety of fresh seafood options, and everything we tried was cooked to perfection. The fish was tender, flavorful, and clearly of the highest quality. The sides were equally impressive, complementing the dishes beautifully. The service was impeccable—friendly, attentive, and genuinely invested in ensuring we had a great experience. It’s rare to find a place where both the food and the service exceed expectations, but Pete’s managed to do just that. If you’re looking for a seafood spot that delivers on flavor, freshness, and hospitality, Pete’s Fish House Restaurant is a must-visit. I can’t wait to return and try more from their amazing menu! Highly recommended.

We were totally satisfied with the food and service
