  1. Tom yum soup Net +4

What to Avoid (1)

Food 1

  1. Grilled crab Net −1

The Bottom Line

Seaworld Seafood Restaurant in Al Safa is a choice-led seafood restaurant: you select fish or crustaceans, have them weighed, and choose how they are cooked. Reviews repeatedly praise the freshness, while the Thai dishes give the menu extra range. Tom yum soup, papaya salad, fish curry and fried calamari are among the clearest standouts.

The experience suits sharing. Diners mention generous portions, private rooms and a clean, comfortable setting, making it workable for family meals or larger gatherings. The seafood displays and cooking options also make it easier for first-time visitors to ask for guidance rather than guess at the menu.

There are practical and financial caveats. 2 kg fish, while another called the restaurant overpriced. Portions can be large, so sharing may help manage the bill.

Cooking quality is not described as perfectly consistent. Two visits produced dry, rubbery fish in one review, and another reported confusion over a soup order. Confirm the dish and preparation before it reaches the table, especially if you have a specific request.
