This spot was such a hidden gem in Atlantic City. Has been open since 1919 and the taste was so fresh and flavorful. The family still owns the location and the service is top-tier. There's limited seating if you want to eat there but the locals definitely keep it busy it seems like a mostly take out. We were able to taste a little bit of everything in our favorite was the white fish sandwich. Definitely a must try, you can have them make it or make it yourself. This will be a new, Must stop at anytime I goto Atlantic City. Thank you.

5/24/24 Hole in the wall seafood market that serves cooked meals. Just a couple of high table and a counter at the window looking out. I've heard good things about them so we came on our trip. Sadly we came just before soft shell crab season. We opted for the Seafood Platter and Fried Smelt Platter with a side of Scallops. Seafood Platter was good, had nice seasoning and plenty of seafood. Came with Coleslaw and Veggies. Coleslaw was good. Veggie taste like frozen veggie steamed, meh. Fried Smelt Platter was delicious! I like the small crispy bite size fish didn't even need the tartar sauce. The fries were crispy and seasoned. Side of Scallops was tender and fresh but not very seasoned. I needed a bit of salt. It was good seafood. We went back to AC in July but so many places to visit so we didn't get to stop by for the soft shelled crab sandwich which people told me I should get hehehe. Maybe another time :]

Great value for fresh seafood. Quick and friendly service. Make sure you check the board by the door for specials. I did not see it until after I placed my order but there are a few items that was not on the posted menu (on top of the counter) such as the calamari platter. Inside, there are about 4 tables and some counter space. Outside, to the right, there are some tables. It was too hot to eat outside so I took the food to go. I ordered two fried platters and was worried it would get soggy by the time I brought it back but it was still crispy and tasted amazing! We ordered the 5 shrimp and 5 scallop platter for $13.99 and a seafood platter (1 flounder, 2 shrimps, 2 scallops and 1 crab cake) for $14.99. Each platter comes with fries and coleslaw. I replaced one of the fries for hush puppies which came in 4 pieces. The seafood was super fresh. However, the crab cake had a lot of fillers. The batter is light and well seasoned. It was a bit salty just eating the seafood alone but a good balance with the coleslaw.

One of the best place for cheap eats. Such fresh seafood and the prices are amazing. The restaurant is a nice cozy place near the Caesars in Atlantic city. Definitely bookmark this place. The guy who took our order was so nice and friendly. He helped us choose a meal based on his recommendation and the founder fish was so good. The soft shell crab sandwich - I thought it would have been an app but no it was so filling and add some hot sauce and coleslaw, so good. It was already delicious on it's own, no fishy smell or taste - just delicious fried crab! Best 6.99 cheap eats. I found myself craving it for days after eating here! Happy eating fellow yelpers!

Easy to find with ample street parking. The gentleman was welcoming and very patient with me. The place was clean with its three high tops and six counter chairs. The prices were comparable. I opted for the fried flounder and shrimp platter with hush puppies instead of French fries. The fish was PERFECTLY cooked. Crispy on the outside and juicy and tender on the inside. The shrimp were good too. Both a little on the salty side so the Kelchner tartar sauce helped. The cole slaw was yummy. Crunchy and seasoned correctly. But the much anticipated hush puppies were a bust. I spit it out. Too dense and waaaay too floury. It's all good...I got full off the yummy seafood! Like Ahhhnold said, "I'll be back!"

Stopped by for a quick lunch and boy did we get a delicious lunch and treat. We were here for a conference at the Atlantic City Convention Center and needed to grab lunch nearby. So we took a 6 minute walk and was glad we did it. I saw the pictures and wanted to find out if this would be a find- oh yes it was. We had 4 people. Three saw the seafood combo platter and immediately went for it at $14.99. I didn't want so much so I got a flounder fish sandwich for $4.99. Food came out fast and hot! The food were fresh and perfectly prepared. The combo platter had fish, shrimps, crab cake, French fries and cole slaw. I asked for extra tartar sauce and was not disappointed. Totally worth the stop not only for your taste buds but also your pockets. Love places like this where you know that the food is good quality at a nice price. No complaints. The restaurant has been around for a long time. The people are nice and friendly. A special shout out to Jean at the cash register who was so helpful in taking out orders! Not a place for a big party to sit down- only can seat about 10 people inside but they do have a space for outside seating on the side of the store. Will be back!
