Sea street cafe hyannis

Bright, low-key eatery specializing in breakfasts & traditional New England seafood plates.

Sea St Cafe is one of if not my favorite breakfast restaurant of all time. My wife and I have been here so many times and everytime we come we both have an excellent experience. The first thing you’ll notice about Sea St Cafe when you walk in is that it’s sooooo clean. The staff is constantly sweeping the floor, the bathrooms are clean, and the parking lot never has any trash on it. The outside of the restaurant just also looks so inviting. Seating right outdoors, aesthetic building, truly everything you can ask for in a breakfast place. The waitresses we’ve all had are always incredible, very generous, compassionate, and friendly. The atmosphere inside is very relaxing, plenty of space between tables too so you don’t feel crammed in. The food is impeccable. The presentation is elegant, the portions and ratios of what’s on the plate are always perfect, and it all tastes so good. The food is so fresh too and it’s always made with great ingredients. While you’re waiting for your food, the staff brings out cheese bread. My wife and I always have the biggest smile when the waitress brings the cheese bread over to the table. I don’t even know how to explain how much I enjoy the cheese bread with words. My personal favorite item on the menu is the Irish Benedict. I eat up every last piece of meat and crumb when I order it. Finishing off with the desert, I strongly advise you to try the Lemon Ricotta Blueberry Pancakes. Today I ordered the Steak and Eggs and it came out perfectly. The steak was incredibly well seasoned and packed with flavor and the poached eggs and the hollandaise sauce on top made for an excellent flavor combination. My wife only had good comments about the French Toast she ordered today, she was thrilled to find out that the dish was topped with fresh strawberries and glazed walnuts. She usually doesn’t enjoy eating sweets but she absolutely loved the French Toast anyway. I don’t even need to consider the fact that I will be visiting this place again soon. If you are a local or you’re visiting the Cape, I strongly recommend that you wake up bright and early and get some delicious breakfast from Sea St Cafe.

The food was delicious. The menu had a good variety. I ordered the buffalo chicken roll up. The servers were very nice and helpful. It was rather busy when I arrived for lunch and the food took awhile to come out. It was loud with people talking around.

This place has a lot of potential, but it's not quite there. Not perfect, but you won't be disappointed. First of all, they were very busy when we showed up, and here lies the first place that could be improved: the waiting system. You write your name on a paper with how many people are in your group. We had 2. The problem is that if someone else shows up when a table is ready, they just seat them instead of going in order of the list. I guess it's easier than writing down a new name on the list and making another person wait but it rubbed us the wrong way. The food is great, imaginative, and well prepared (mostly). The cape cod Benedict is very rich (and good) but could use something to tone down the richness (maybe a bit of lemon). Not perfect, as they overcooked my poached eggs, but I'm sure the kitchen was chaotic given how busy they were. I'd definitely eat here again, maybe not at peak hours.

It was great breakfast! Irish Benny, on the salty side! And the Lemon-Blueberry Ricotta pancakes! Wow.. I felt like they did not even need syrup... Which is a must with pancakes..

Oysters from the bistro's own farm, creative seafood dishes & big wine list star in a modern space.
Reviews:
Seafood was fresh and delicious. I ordered their signature haddock and lobster, which had great presentation and taste. The burrata had its own kick that you have to try to know. Ceiling decor was super cool too.

We had two plates of oysters that were perfectly prepared as an appetizer. The ravioli and clam pastas were amazing main courses. Service was quick and informative.

- Raw oysters on the half shell were excellent. They were a little small compared to some I have seen though - Grilled Thai shrimp appetizer was tasty (4 jumbo shrimp) - They have "specials" that are not always on their menu, including a lobster roll which was excellent - Prices were a little high, but the food and atmosphere justify it (I would expect about 30+ per person) - We got seating on a Friday night without reservation immediately in the middle in August, which was nice. The restaurant was still full though - The waitresses were very nice and attentive
BWS Travel
Amazing. Incredibly friendly, prompt, and knowledgeable staff. The food was so fresh and well-prepared. The beef carpaccio and oysters dressed with soy, wasabi, and ginger were killer. Also, an amazing lobster orzo dish that was perfectly cooked. Got a table right away without reservations on a Saturday night and had a fantastic time.
Jeff Wright
We had a wonderful experience sitting at the bar, watching the raw bar and bartender work while enjoying the beautifully curated menu. The cocktails were well-balanced, the appetizers showcased the fall flavors, and the oysters were some of the best I've ever eaten. The entrées were a tasty treat as well, especially the sirloin! It was better than I've had at high-end steakhouses!

Reviews:
Great tapas restaurant, can't be more enthusiastic about this place. Menu is incredible, so many items, too much to choose and everything we had was fantastic. Great cocktails also, but more focused on vodka than whiskey. Please add some good rye. Service was great, the items flowed well, although I would have preferred our lighter seafood items before the beef braised short ribs. Everything was great, especially waffles and chicken I had for dessert. I couldn't pass it up.

Good food, but even better service! They went above and beyond to ensure that we had a great meal and that they were safe with my shellfish allergies.

Great drink menu- highly recommend the Peanut Butter Cup Martini! Food was delicious!

I love a good tapas place with good cocktails so this restaurant fit the bill. It was St. Patrick's day so all the drinks were green. They even had gluten free strawberry shortcake. It was a real treat, along with the coconut creme brulee. The scallops were just enough for me since I wasn't that hungry.

I don't know if there are enough amazing words for this place. The food was out of this word good! The service was absolutely amazing. We where on vacation from pa, a family of 6. I am so glad we try this place. A great experience.

Myself and everyone I’ve gone to this restaurant with absolutely loves this place! My wife and I just visited this place tonight and we had an amazing time. Immediately when you walk inside the atmosphere feels so vibrant and lively. People are everywhere, from meat loving customers to Rodízio skewers flying everywhere. They also have a buffet that does not disappoint, and a grill where they cook fresh takeout meat for customers. Everywhere you look in this restaurant there is something to see. Sitting down and beginning to eat is so exciting, as you immediately are greeted by waitresses taking drink orders and giving plates and already being asked if you’d like a piece of garlic topped cheese steak. Instant gratification at its finest. Everyone is also so cool. The staff are so friendly, and the servers who walk by to offer meat always smile, and seem genuinely excited to cut you a nice fresh juicy piece of meat. I also just love that they have so many different cuts. I had the opportunity tonight to eat cheese injected steak, ribeye, tomahawk steak, lamb, and these are just the ones I can remember. I was also offered so many more. None of them disappoint. And how, how could I leave out the excellent garlic bread. The garlic bread is addictively good. Every time I have come to eat at this restaurant, I have had an astonishingly incredible experience, and that goes for everyone who’s been there with me. I even took my wife here for our very first date, now we’re happily married. Brazilian Grill definitely played a key role in that, take notes single men ;) I’ll be coming back soon, I’d be here every week if this place didn’t rip my wallet in half but it’s worth it. I’ll just buy a new one.
Ian Harrington
Brazilian all kinds of meat. If you are a meat lover this is the place to visit. You can also order a la carte for seafood and poultry. Finally, do not miss out on some signature cocktails.

Absolutely delicious!! Staff was very nice and helpful. Worth every penny!
Michelle Olivares
I've never been to a restaurant like this, but they had a salad bar and my weird 7yr old kid loves salad. So this was his birthday dinner choice. It was phenomenal! The meats they carved were all really delicious, especially the NY sirloin. I wish there had been more chicken options that came to the table, but the chicken wing I had was delicious! The salad bar is also really excellent! We both went up twice. I'm pretty addicted to the brazillian cheese biscuits, I get them at a spot here at home too. Also the grilled pineapple? Aaaamazing!! I would definitely recommend to anyone staying in the area (or living!). I hope to find one similar closer to home because I would love to go back. The service was also excellent, as was the atmosphere with all the pretty plants. Thank you so much for a lovely dinner experience.

I recently dined at this lovely Thai restaurant with my family. We had the chance to savor a variety of dishes, but what truly stood out were the chef's specials. The flavors were exceptional, and the presentation was a delight. The ambience added to the overall experience, creating a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere. Situated on the main streets, the restaurant's prime location was a definite plus. Highly recommended for those seeking a memorable Thai dining experience
Sayan Ghosh
What a great, authentic Thai place! They were out of the summer rolls, so we got the crispy veggie rolls instead and they were delicious, with a light dipping sauce. I ordered a dish I had never seen on a Thai menu: Yellow River, which is lo mein noodles swimming in yellow curry sauce + your choice of protein (chicken, beef, tofu or vegetables). It was truly delightful! I love lo mein AND curry, so it hit the spot. My wife ordered the red curry with tofu, and it was spicy and full-flavored. She loved it! For my son, we ordered an appetizer: scallion crispy pancake with peanut sauce. He loves peanut butter, so he liked this, too. I highly recommend a Taste of Siam in Hyannis.
Ned Gosaynie
Excellent authentic Thai and Asian food at a reasonable price. The service was friendly and efficient. I started my lunch with a bowl of Tom Yum soup with shrimp. The delicious broth contained two large shrimp, sliced scallions, and coarsely chopped button mushrooms. The soup was nothing less than outstanding. This was followed by two shared appetizers. The shrimp tempura was more like coconut shrimp without the coconut than the fluffy lightly battered shrimp I was expecting. Even though given a different presentation, it was delicious and satisfying. The other appetizer was scallion pancakes with a peanut sauce. For a shared main course, we ordered vegetable Pad Thai. I added some umami and salt to my portion by drizzling a little soy sauce over the top. All together, a great meal.

Ended up here sorta by accident but WOW, some of the best Thai food we've ever had. Honestly, we could just eat the appetizers and be satisfied and happy - the scallion pancakes and coconut shrimp were *perfectly* cooked. Will definitely be stopping in the future when we pass thru the cape (and tbh driving an hour to come here anyway isn't out of the question the food is THAT GOOD.
Brian Procopio
Great find in an otherwise expensive town. Modest, but clean dining area and terrific service. Ordered drunken noodles with beef and crispy spring rolls. Both were delicious.

First time in MA. Travelling w/ Diamond Tours, Atlanta, GA. The staff was so accommodating & the mgr, Luis was on point w/ making sure his staff provided excellent svc & the patrons happy. The food was excellent I had salmon, mashed potatoes, mixed veggies & salad. Also bread was served w/ oil & herbal mixture. My table requested addition servings of bread & it was granted. I had an opportunity to speak to the mgr. from Ecuador & expressed my gratitude for the service received from him & the staff.I will definitely return the next time I come & recommend this family own business for great food & service!

I saw that it was after lunch time and I had not eaten yet so I decided to give this new place a try at about 2 pm. Only wanting a lite lunch I ordered a steak taco which was one of the tastiest tacos I ever ate. It was soft shell and nice an juicy. They served some nachos once I was seated and I am sure their own homemade Salsa.
John M.
Servers were incredibly friendly, and the bartender is truly a craftsman, native to the Caribbean. I had the blackened salmon, and it was excellent.
Ian Kaner
Stopped in for a light lunch. We had a steak quesadilla steak taco ad chicken taco. While we waited,a short time, they gave us complimentary chips and salsa which were delicious.
Kathy Perrone
A friend and I just met up and started reminiscing about our wonderful time down on the Cape last summer. One of the first things that came out of both our mouths was "OMG, do you remember that amazingggg dinner we had in Hyannis? That sandwich?". Then we remembered that after eating the seared quinoa and chickpea burger we'd promised ourselves we'd write a review because it was so good, but realized we never did. Anyway, here we are. Highly recommended!
