Bergenline Avenue, West New York

Fresh off the ice,
straight into the fryer

A fish market with a kitchen. Whole red snapper, flounder, shrimp and more, chosen at the counter and fried to order, with yellow rice, fried yuca, tostones and salad. Ceviche and seafood soup too.

Humble room, big plates, fair prices. Bring your own beer. Open seven days.

The room and the table

Easily one of the most delicious meals I've had in my life. No menu, pick your fish and they fry it and you eat it nice and hot. The service is fast, enthusiastic, and genuinely kind.Google review
We mix between the fried flounder, whole red snapper and fried shrimp. The fried yuca is top tier. Not too expensive and you get a lot of food.Google review
Not a fancy restaurant but the food is super yummy and fresh. Great prices and very nice staff.Google review
