We had read great reviews of this place and wanted to stop by but didn’t get a chance to make reservations due to an unsure schedule. This weekend we decided to stop by and ask in person if there were any seats available.

We asked the hostess if any seats were available and she said we could try the bar. At first we didn’t see any but Anthony checked and found us two spots at the end! Side note -as we waited outside while Anthony checked we got to interact with the hostess and Christine and they were lovely. We also got to witness a lady being verbally difficult about her reservation & table and the hostess and Christine handled it with grace. Back to Anthony, he was warm, friendly & enthusiastic which we loved! Kathleen was our waitress at the bar and she was amazing! She was knowledgeable and passionate about the menu explaining she has been there for many years. She was attentive and joyful but didn’t linger. She was a delight!

The seafood mac n cheese is DELICIOUS! We couldn’t believe how much flavor it had and it had the perfect amount of sauce (we don’t like dry mac n cheese). We also had oysters, the snapper & chocolate flourless cake and all were fabulous!

The service, atmosphere, food, staff and owners made our night special and we will never forget it! We can’t thank them enough it means more than we can explain! Highly recommend coming here!

Love it here. Being a small spot, it has a lot of character… excellent chow, great service, and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere. The husband-and-wife owners are clearly hands-on… stopping by tables, checking in with guests, and keeping a watchful eye on everything. It’s obvious they care and truly want you to have a great time here.

I called for a reservation and it was basically sold out… when they said they could take me at 5pm, I grabbed it. Was actually perfect as I was heading over to see the tennis tournament after dinner. On arrival, the place was empty. As expected, when we left, it was completely full.

A half bottle of Sonoma-Cutrer Chardonnay was perfect with my lobster. The wine list isn’t extensive, but it’s well chosen and fairly priced. The food was excellent across the board. A special of Scallops, Crab Cake, topped with Shrimp over Vegetables was fantastic. My guest enjoyed the Clams Oreganata. I loved my Baked Stuffed Lobster (stuffed with crab), served with amazing Mashed Potatoes… and bonus points for a real hand towel after the lobster.

Of course, I had to try the key lime pie… very good.

Now I understand why this casual, unassuming spot is so popular… it hits on every note. I noticed a bunch of regulars dining at the bar, which looked perfect to me. The bar is walk-in only… so next time I don’t have dinner plans, I’ll remember I can just walk in and try for a seat. I’m sure I’ll see two familiar faces… the owners, Anthony and Christine.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

J&J’s Seafood Bar and Grill in Delray Beach is such a great place and hidden gem! If you are new to Delray or just arriving for the season and are looking for a good seafood place, this is it. The atmosphere is very nice and welcoming. My experience was amazing. The customer service was an absolute 10! I ordered the PEI Mussels fra diavolo(in spicy marinara) and bread. This appetizer was absolutely amazing. As though that wasn’t enough, my dinner which was the Pan Seared Snapper with Lobster Sauce was out of this world! Lastly, we ordered the Key Lime Pie and it was light with the right blend of tart, sweet, and creamy, a excellent way to end the dinner! I cannot recommend this place enough as it is well worth the price! So if you are looking for a good quality seafood dish, J&J’s is your place but beware, the season is upon us and I imagine this place is going to be soon be booked solid, it is just that good.

I had never noticed this place before! It’s hidden right next to Hawkers. Went here for dinner last night and we were not disappointed! Started with the PEI mussels in the white wine garlic sauce. Then we each tried an oyster for the first time and they were great! For entrees we got the pan seared snapper, pan seared chicken, coconut curry shrimp and scallops, and the chopped salad with salmon. Everything was delicious!

Was blown away by the food! Ask for the off-menu linguine with clams – the best I’ve ever had! Red snapper was fresh and the sauce was to die for. Jumbo lump crab was high quality. Very comfortable ambiance where you’re never rushed. Such a gem!

I ate there last night for an elegant, classy seafood dinner while on vacation with my fiance and it was the BEST seafood experience of my life. The atmosphere was impeccable and the owner Anthony came over to our table to introduce himself and to really get to know his customers. Turns out we are fellow New Yorkers with him and it was a beautiful home-away-from-home feeling for us. I would absolutely recommend coming here when traveling to Delray beach.

Can’t believe I lived in Delray for 5 years now and one of the spots I completely missed. Little gem hidden on the ave. Food was great and a place I will be going to often . Glad I stopped in!!

Tucked away in Delray, J&J Seafood is the kind of place you hope no one else finds out about—but can’t stop talking about. From the first bite to the last, every dish was a love letter to the ocean. The oysters? Ice-cold, briny perfection—no fuss, just pure, clean flavor. The curry seafood risotto? That’s where things get soulful. Creamy, fragrant, loaded with tender shellfish, it hits like something your globe-trotting grandmother might’ve made after a trip through Southeast Asia and the Gulf Coast.

This is seafood done right—thoughtful, unpretentious, and full of heart. The kind of joint where you’re not just eating, you’re living a little. It’s a necessary stop any time we are in Delray.

With regards to the service, our server was wonderful. Warm, sharp, and effortlessly attentive. She ties the whole experience together like a great bartender in a smoky dive bar—indispensable, unforgettable.

Ate there Saturday 2/28/26 – The new owner Anthony worked very hard to get a seats at the bar and he was terrific (infectious positivity!). We order dish by dish – and ended up having a beet salad (good) and the stuffed pepper special. The stuffed pepper was outstanding – best ever – and we chose to order another! Highly recommend.
