The Seafood Lover of Sterling

Very unassuming storefront, with a lot to choose for your palate. We enjoyed the spicy lobster fried rice with mild sauce, and the Lobster with crab fried rice. Do yourself a favor and visit this place if you love Thai and seafood. The place had an awesome atmosphere perfect for couples. Uno, provided top notch customer service. Will be coming back soon for sure.

We visited here this past weekend and we are pleasantly surprised. ALL of the food was so amazing that we are still talking about it. We had a group of 6 and there was nothing left on most of our plates. The shrimp, fries, crave, lobster, crab fried rice, mashed potatoes, and more. The portions were generous. Everything was amazing and no one had anything to complain about. Our waitress was fun and humorous. If you are ever in the area, I definitely recommend this place. It made our Saturday night amazing.

Also, the bathroom is something to see. Super cool!!!

Some of us were so full, but it hurt so good! 🤣🤣🤣

Had the chicken pad Thai and ordered it "Thai hot" and was not disappointed. It could have been spicier, but it was still very good. Highly recommend and glad my coworker found it because I would have looked right over the place because I don't eat seafood so wouldn't have looked at a restaurant named "The Seafood Lover"!

We absolutely love coming here. The seafood and Thai cuisine it top notch.
Never disappoints. The flavor is out of this world. The atmosphere is terrific. Highly recommend.

Great and tasty food! Seafood and Thai options. Lovely decor! We got Seafood love seafood combo, crispy duck, spicy calamari, Thai papaya salad, crab fried rice. All of them are super delish. Friendly staff.

Very unassuming storefront and when you step in, wow! Festive decorations, friendly staff, and professional service. The menu was wonderful, the food delicious, and of course the spices were amazing. Wish I would've found this restaurant sooner🙂!

The food was phenomenal. I ordered the whole squid grilled, the twin lobster tails (Thai Menu) and shared the Seafood Combo. We had a very large party to celebrate a birthday with lots of little ones and it was the perfect place to do so. We will definitely be back.

This hidden gem did not disappoint!! I will definitely be back!!

Nice place. Liked the decorations. Excellent service. Food was great. Better than expected because it was in a weird location. 😂

Perfect "Lunch Date".
My husband suggested we try a new place today and we ended up at The Seafood Lover. It certainly lives up to its name, with a modest store front that turns into an excellent experience from the moment you enter. If you like seafood you will love this place. If it's not on the menu just ask and they can probably make it for you. Scallops Pad Thai? No problem! The food was delicious and Uno's service was amazing, very attentive and friendly. My husband ordered lobster and crab fried rice and I had spicy lobster fried rice. You can tell them the level of spice that you would like. I had the spicy sauce on the side and it was perfect for me.
This was our first time there and we will definitely be back!

Our first time at Shrimp Lover Restaurant. It was very delicious of menu that we were ordered and the Best service.
Thank you very much for your warm welcome us and your complimentary was delicious.
And also thank you for recommended us to visit Thai Temple- Wat Yarn Rangsri that location near by Shrimp Love Restaurant.

We chanced upon this place and, looking at the exterior, were a little skeptical at first. However, the interior is well-kept and decorated. Dishes we tried were all delicious, and the price is agreeable. Will definitely go back for more.

The food, drinks, environment etc excellent!! My favorite waitress is Som! She is incredibly talented when it comes to choices and I’m humbled to receive her service. Phenomenal food, service and definitely Som rocks!!

This will be a long review. I have attached some photos I took my self.

Parking: parking is limited however easy to find a spot.

Staffing: No matter where you go one of the most important things is the staff that work there and its management. If you want a genuinely kind staff to take care of you and your family this is the place to go. None of them where rude, all had masks on, and it was not the fake happy but genuinely happy. I spoke to the manager to request permissions to take photos and she was happy. Now I didn't mention this until after I ordered to get the full experiance.

Spacing: inside and out is well spaced apart. You will be comfortable sitting down and eating without worry of anyone close to you.

Masks: all staff wear masks. On entry you are required to wear a mask. However it's only in the waiting area. Staff are very respectful and I have seen them offer masks to those who don't have one. But once you sit you do not need your mask.

Food Ordered:

1st Order - Papaya salad pickle crab

I would rate it 9/10 I ordered spicy version. Only reason 9 / 10 is it was a bit too spicy. But some will love that hehe. If you love spicy you will love it.

2nd Order - Steamed Squid with spicy sauce.

Would rate it a 8/10 reason being is its a bit too chewy. So if the kitten works on that easily imporved.

I was not paid or endorsed for this review. I am willing to return if the owner would like me to.

Message to the owner -

You have a good team working there. Staff are only as happy as their management treats them. Keep it up.

Advice,

I would advise working on a kids menu to give parents opens for Itheir kids. The menu is amazing. But is lacking in options for those who do not like seafood.

I would encourage some of the following for kids and others.

Macaroni and cheese, popcorn shrimp, fries. If this is on your menu and I have over looked it I apologize.

If you would like to invite me back for a sponsored review please respond to this and say "We would love to give you a sponsored meal for your and your family (free)" But please know my reviews will be truthful and as I see it.

Good ambiance. Food is good too. Very friendly staff!

The dozen oysters here are an exceptional pick for those going in a group or just as a seafood fanatic. I was not expecting the massive size that they came out in and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of service and preparation. Although there were plenty of options to pick from, given their variety of menu items ranging from seafood boils to thai cuisine, this spot is a hidden gem worth giving an opportunity to. I will be coming back in the future.

Loved it. Went there without any plan. And this restaurant wowed us. So wonderfully decorated! You will feel you are close to the water! Like there menu, easy to understand for a first timer. All of the host and servers were very friendly and know their food very well. We ordered Head on Shrimp, Corn cob, Curly fries ... All were delicious. Will be back soon.

Foods are really great! Specially the oysters! The server was very friendly and took care of our needs, they also have Karaoke. It was fun!

Fifteen of us visited this location late July while there for a softball tournament. Service was awesome, food selection was plentiful (Thai highlights), the restaurant was nice and clean but a little hot! All of us had various items from steaks, seafood, salads, appetizers, noodles and more! Everyone enjoyed themselves! Reasonable prices, nice portions and good food. The owners gave us a special fruit, don't remember the name, but was different and tasty! I tried to get dumplings but not available. I hope they add them! A nice visit!!

Authentic Northeastern Thai food

Im Thai and I know two restaurants that are authentic, this is one of them. If you’re Thai def come here.
