DMV-like lines , tacky nautical décor, and thick wafts of burbling fryer oil—all of which are worth it for the crunch of the ultimate fried whiting sandwich . Read more

Food is great. Usually get fish dinner . You get enough to share. Yesterday, got shrimp ! Was good, but turned off because they didn't devein (clean ) shrimp well . Pet peeve even w/Chinese restaurants .

The strawberry cake is better than it has any business being. The cake portion is moist and light, and the cream has a delicious bubblegum like flavour.

It might have been better (and cheaper) when it was a hole-in-the-wall across the street, but the fried whiting , mac n’ cheese and collar greens are to die for.

Men's Health Mag

This is a straight-up southern style fish joint, which means anything that swims , be it catfish , porgy, or whiting, takes a bath in a fryer before it hits the wax paper. Read more

One of the best seafood places in Harlem. Food's always good & cooked fresh per order. Their 2nd location needs work. It's literally a hole in the wall & sketchy

These people have been miserable since it was that hole in the wall restaurant on the corner of Madison but dammit their food is delicious!!!

Mac n cheese is excellent! Along with friendly service and a clean atmosphere. Try it out.

Best fried fish but go expecting to spend time on line and for your food to be ready.

Nurse Sunshine

The potato salad is THE BEST!!! Everything is good here!

Dominique Atchison

The food was great but it took them 45 mins to get my food. And literally 20 people who came after me got their food before me. And of course there was very little concern when I complained.

Angela Wright

They are truly the best seafood and soul food place in NYC.

Friendly but slow service. The candied yams were deliciously sweet.
