My family’s been coming here for about 20 years now and love it! The same family has owned it for about that long too– they’ve seen our family grow up and vise versa. Now onto the review. The pros: the seafood is super fresh! They’ve got a market side and a restaurant side so you can eat in then buy dinner for the next day if you’d like. The restaurant is always clean and bright. Very good food. The cons: they’re cash only. It was cool in 2005, just not 2015. Also I wish they weren’t closed Mondays.

Visited on advice from a friend. Glad I listened. Very friendly and very good food. Had the Cajun catfish and fries. It comes with coleslaw. You get good portions. It’s also a fish market so on my way out I bought some scallops. Like I said the staff is very pleasant. Will definitely go back and try something different. A hidden gem.

Is it a fish market with a restaurant or restaurant with a fish market. It’s the best of both worlds. They have fresh seafood for sale to take home or you can order from the menu on the wall. I had Cajun Catfish, deep fried with french fries and cole slaw. 4 good sized pieces of Catfish marinated in a mild cajun spice. Fries were from previously frozen, but were hot and crispy. The cole slaw was pedestrian but still good with a nice crunch. Good sized portions from what I saw of other orders. Tartar sauce came in a squeeze bottle, so no problem getting an adequate supply. I heard raves for the whole belly clams from customers across the room. Absolutely not fancy, no white linen here, but friendly atmosphere as strangers were easily conversing with one another. Bring CASH as they do not take credit or debit cards. Tip: Get dessert next door at «Theme Cakes by Joelene», awesome canolli and cupcakes.

Don’t go close to closing time. Was there about 15 minutes before closing. The gentleman at the counter was very rude, we asked if they were still cooking and they said no we close at 8. Don’t go unless you can be there well before closing.

Great small place for some great seafood, without having to drive to the Cape. You walk up, order, pay(with CASH) and sit-n-eat. I had Cajun catfish, very tasty with lots of flavor but not overpowering. Salmon nuggets were good and the coleslaw. Fries were on point!
