Astoria Seafood

It can get a little crazy in here because it's a good value and BYOB . Order your food first, then ask the hostess to put your name down. Owners were friendly and introduced themselves to the noobies.

"People of all ages, ethnicities, and economic brackets are drawn by a powerful common denominator: fresh fish , prepared simply and sold at a fraction of what it costs almost anywhere else." Read more

Process: Pick some fish , give them to the cashier , choose grilled or fried + sides, give them your name, find Helen and tell her your name and party size, wait outside to be called, sit down and eat.

2nd time. Octopus and soft shell crab clear winners. 2nd time we’ve concluded fish unnecessary. Check if crab salad is made with real or imitation that day. Getting real crab next time.

Unbelievable hidden local gem in Astoria. You choose whichever and how much of the fresh seafood and then order how you’d like them prepared. We feasted like royalty! They serve you each dish.

It is like a small cantina; you pick-up fresh sea food like in a fish shop; they will cook it; the quality is very good. You can also bring your wine or buy beer from the shop nearby.

Absolutely love this place. You walk around and pick out all of the fresh food you want, then bring it to the counter and tell them how you want it cooked. The best part? BYOB

Affordable, delicious seafood . Fried calamari , grilled garlic shrimp , baked fish (sea bass ), and salad . Free unlimited garlic bread . BYOB , they have bottle openers and cups. Go early, it gets crowded

A seafood market that is also a restaurant . Fresh seafood , cheap , and grilled nicely but it is always crowded and very unorganized. Nevertheless good things come to those who wait.

Came here on a Wednesday night, the place was packed. We had red mullet, red snapper , and some fried calamari . Everything was good. Friendly service .. next time I should bring my own sauce for fish :p

BYOB and choose what you are eating, that's as good as it gets here, be sure to pick some octopus and shrimps , ask them to grill your choice of food, it is the best.

Everything is great here! We selected shrimp , scallops , and king crab to be cooked. Get the garlic bread , greek salad , and lemon potatoes too!

Delicious, fresh seafood . Super affordable , but don't expect great service. Came here on a Saturday night and spent 3-4 hours here waiting around more than actually eating.

no disrespect to the establishment, everyone was cool- but if you want to enjoy a nice seafood meal in a relaxed atmosphere - DONT come here!

The food is exceptional! Great seafood and the fishes are yummy!!! If you enjoy seafood this will be a great experience

The food's just great! The place itself looks very simple and some could misled by this fact, but fear not, they know how to cook awesome seafood .

The freshest, most delicious seafood you will ever have. And you get to pick it!

Loved this place - be ready for an intense environment, but damn the food was incredible.

Softshell crab , octopus salad , grilled octopus , crab salad , greek salad , shrimp , scallops

Hidden gem . Choose fresh ingredients by the pound and the house cooks it for you. Very delicious and affordable . Often long lines in the weekend. It's also BYOB ????

All Seafood is amazing but since I had to wait 2 hours outside after ordering - I guess it’s not worth it. I heard that you have to come any day but Friday or Saturday to avoid waiting for long time

Pick out a fresh sea bass from the back. Ask them to cook it for you... Sit down and enjoy

Get the octopus , grilled shrimp (the pricier bigger ones), Greek salad and a branzino

Despite the service, the excellent and cheap food keeps me coming back. Ask for octopus at the counter. ????

Delicious food! Grilled octopus , grilled branzino ; fried calamari , fried smelt. I'm drooling!

The best seafood spot in the area. It gets very crowded so make sure you pick the right time :D

Delicious,fresh seafood . Also really great prices

No Frills BYO seafood spot . Seafood is awesome and cheap . Be prepared to wait.

Stuffed flounder lemon potato and Greek salad . ????????

Chaotic experience with lackluster attention - food is good but there are others in Astoria that are essentially the same set-up but better in organization and service (ex abuqir)

Amazing seafood variety, cooked to perfection, fun experience

Greek salad awesome! Order some calamari and shrimp grill for sure.
