I got the 6 jumbo shrimp lunch special with coleslaw and fries. It was hot and fresh made right when I ordered it. The shrimp was big, hot and crispy. Fries were fries but hot and fresh. The coleslaw was top notch. The place looks like a rundown Chinese restaurant because it was. Lol but you can fill up for about $8 for a full meal in late 2025, thats special!

#3 male crabs had a very strong ammonia smell & the shrimp were mushy. Money wasted 👎🏾
This place is run by the sweetest Korean lady. They used to offer rice & kimchi but unfortunately the surrounding residents are more the Fries and cole slaw crowd. Expanding horizons is not our strong suit i suppose. Anyway, the seafood is always on point and the price is reasonable for the specials. Go here. So that they may offer korean banchan again!
Also: I go here for my blue crabs too when i'm looking to support a local business that deserves it.
Kamsahamnida!

I've been a seafood coneseur for decades. I ordered #1 crabs got home to eat the crabs, and there were 3 #2 crabs at the bottom of my little aluminum foil pan. Called her back, no no! We don't have #2 crab. Me: Well how did i get #2 in my order conveniently at the bottom. Can't be trusted, average person don't why a #1 is a #1, and why #2 is a #2. Definitely not because it's heavy, but by the maturity or hardness of the shell. If you can put your finger through the shell, it's not a #1 crab. Won't be giving them my hard earned $$ anymore. Shame, and pathetic yall make sure you get what you pay for. They be trying to be slick with those crabs.

Great fish sandwich and fries for a very reasonable price. The food is consistently good and fresh and they are always friendly. This is just a take out spot there are no tables inside or outside to eat at. They also sell raw seafood. Also, I have never had to wait long even when they are busy. It’s just all around good!

This is what they call fresh fish. Does this look fresh to any one? I purchased 3 trout fillets and came straight home. Upon unwrapping them, the smell was horrible and the texture was very mucous like. There are random dark areas along the edges and all three are generally discolored. I called them to question the quality and ask if I could do an exchange or get a refund. I didn't even get that far. I got screamed at by the woman who answered the phone "OUR FISH FRESH! ALWAYS FRESH!" then she hung up. Would not answer when I called back. The price wasn't bad, but I'm still out $14 and have no fish for tonight. Will never go here again. There isn't even any point going up there to complain of that's how they treat people over the phone.
This is why I generally don't shop for fresh food near the Williamsburg Rd or the East End period. People are willing to sell us anything just because they can then deny they did anything wrong. Fresh food doesn't magically change colors or smell bad. They knew what they were wrapping, that's why the guy kept looking at me strangely. This why I generally shop at Fresh Market, Whole Foods or Ellwood Thompson. Nothing on this side of town is fresh or healthy. It's all fast food or frozen processed junk.
