Sea Kings Steam and Fry Seafood Inc

I visited this location twice on a recent trip to Brooklyn. I tried a couple of the steamed and fried dishes, and found the food to be fresh, well-prepared, and in pretty generous portions. Thanks to the cashier/servers Mrs. Lamb and Taylor for making the ordering process easy and accurate.

It's sort of a combo seafood market and restaurant: you can choose your own cuts of fish and vegetables from refrigerators and ice trays, then have them cleaned up and prepared to order. You can also just buy the food raw and cook it yourself at home, if you like.

They offer a nice selection of fish and shellfish, and vegetable options including corn, onion, potatoes, plantain and more.

There are also some pre-packaged meal packs on display at the front counter, as well as a normal restaurant-style menu if the DIY option doesn't appeal.

Since everything is cooked to order, the wait is usually 15-20 minutes, perhaps longer if they're very busy. They do have some online options to order ahead and skip the wait. I have not tried these, but I do see a pretty steady flow of delivery-service couriers in addition to the usual customers.

There is no on-site dining, it is takeout only. Parking can be tricky, there is a small, often crowded parking area but no legal street parking in front (it's a bus lane and you'll get a ticket.)

Crab cakes were sour and undercooked. Salmon skin was soggy. Plantains tasted off and they gave me the wrong sauce.

We order seakings combo. Per menu it’s supposed to include 10 shrimps. But when we opened it at home, there were no shrimps at all. Unacceptable.
Edit: 1 -> 4 stars after the owner responded.

The best steamed seafood ever. Amarie was really warm and easy to talk to. They also work very fast in here. It’s not a long wait and it’s not rowdy. The seafood and other items are sorted and structured so neat making it easy to select and see what you want. They have a wide range of options from scallops, calamari, snapper, salmon and even crab legs and lobster tail. A seafood lover’s dream hands down.

Definitely am a repeat customer the flavors of the food, the freshness, and the prices are definitely unmatched! I came as they were closing and they opened for me to get a late night/last minute meal, it was truly appreciated and they will continue to get my business for as long as I’m in Brooklyn.

The food here is very good and healthy, but the service is absolutely horrible. Every time I order through Uber Eats, important items are left behind at the store. At first, I had to pay again for redelivery, but even after calling the restaurant directly and asking for my order to be completed, the missing items were still not delivered.

Half the order is usually missing — especially drinks — and it’s gotten to the point where I have to question if this is being done deliberately to short customers. This has happened seven times now, which is unacceptable.

The manager, Amerie, and the workers Shelly and Bianca need to take responsibility. In 2025, no one has money to waste on paying for double deliveries or incomplete orders. Unless this restaurant starts hiring people who can carefully read and fulfill orders correctly, it will not be able to continue operating successfully.

It’s a shame, because the food is excellent, but the constant mistakes and lack of accountability in service ruin the experience.
