    Catfish Fillets and grouper sandwich

    The catfish filet left me speechless!!! We stopped here during a road trip and were blown away. I wanted to try everything! The fish is so fresh and perfectly seasoned. Onion rings were not my favorite, but the fries were great. All the servers were so friendly and provided us with a variety of different sauces and recommendations.

    We were In Albany for a family reunion and the 3 of us decided to take a break and find a local spot for lunch. We are so happy that we decided on Albany Fish Company. The food was delicious, hot and fresh. I can honestly say they have the best hush puppies in the WORLD! Super friendly staff. If I'm ever in the area I will be back.

    Catfish dinner with Cole Slaw and Cheesy Grits
    Jerome M.

    Oh this place was a good find and was awesome! Hands down, the best catfish I ever had. This spot is seafood market/restauraunt. We ordered our food on the market side, then sat out in the patio dining area which was really nice. I had the catfish dinner which came with 3 long catfish fillets and two sides. My side picks were cole slaw and cheese grits. Starting with the catfish...PERFECTLY seasoned and coated, PERFECTLY fried and PERFECTLY drained of excess oil. Need I say more?!?! I mean this was not greasy, it had a crispy crust and it was seasoned well that I didn't need to drown it in tartar sauce. Now for the sides...cole slaw was decent. It wasn't mayoee nor too sweet, so it was good for me. As for the cheese grits...this was the only 2-3 star dish. Grits were very watery and they just added shredded cheese which didn't melt. It also include 2 hush puppies which were pretty good. They had corn in them which was different, but still very good. Overall...I really love this place! Too bad I was only visiting, but I wouldn't hesitate to go back if I had the opportunity.

    Bent metal fork and plastic silverware for crab...
    James P.

    While my wife likes the crab here, don't think to dine in. They charge $70 for a bowl of Crab, crawfish, sausage, potatoes, and corn. Then, they tell you they no longer provide the tool to break open crabs because customers steal them. Learning this after the meal is served, along with their "absolutely no refund" policy posted on the wall ruined the meal. My wife could barely break open the crab and was offered a metal fork, which promptly bent in using to open crab cluster. Management needs to learn how to operate a business. If customers steal the crab tool, then it should just be a deposit charged when ordering for dine-in that you get back after returning the tool. Or just charge $3 more for a cheap Walmart tool. When the meal costs $70, paying a small added silverware fee is preferable to the ruined dining experience. I am dismayed the server would even provide plastic utensils for a $70 dine-in meal. Absolutely ridiculous.

    Shrimp and Fries

    The best way is to break down everything. Hush puppies 10/10 SO GOOD, wish they were bigger Shrimp was okay, wish it was a little more tender so would rate this 7/10 Fries 6/10 Wish the cocktail sauce was a little fresher and needed more horseradish Customer service was great! I would try the fish, maybe that's what they are really known for!

    Alligator bites
    Renzo M.

    I saw really high reviews so I had to try this place, later I realized that I should have PAID ATTENTION to what people were commenting. The high scores happened when people ordered a grilled piece of fish and a couple of sides !!! Apparently fish is fresh and it is probably good. Me on the other hand I made a bad choice and ordered out of the Chefs specials !!! Terrible choice. The shrimp and grits is not worth it. Shrimp was fine but the grits and the sauce were really tasteless !!! Considering that I had 5 shrimps it was really overpriced. I also ordered the alligator bites.... they were ok but nothing to brag about either. This place was also a little confusing as you need to order on the building on the left first before getting a table on the building on the right. There aren't even any signs. I saw many people being confused. People were friendly though and the customers that were eating the plain fish seemed to enjoy it that's the reason for my 3 stars .

    8 piece shrimp dinner

    I have been to Albany Fish Company several times and every time I go I'm greeted by KeeVee ( sorry If i spelt your name wrong) my order is quickly taken and within 10 minutes my food is normally brought out to me. Pipping hot ! Everything is always so fresh and cooked very well. I have had their breakfast salmon croquettes and it was good as well. This place never disappoints. Definitely give it a try !

    Grilled scallops - the best!

    Waited in line for service for a good 15-20. No one at the desk and I saw a young woman pecking on her cellphone in the back.

    Was in town to take a relative out to lunch. We were in the mood for some seafood and I had heard…read moregood things about this place. Once inside, there was less than a five minute wait. We requested seating near the front, but was informed that the waitress for that area wasn't on until 12:00. Mind you, it was 11:50 and we could have waited the 10 minutes, but apparently, that didn't seem to be an option. I didn't want to press my point, so we just settled at a seat farther in the back. Our server took our order, but it really seemed as if he didn't want to be there. Not very attentive, but not openly rude. We did notice that he was much more attentive to the family that was seated next to us. But, I suppose these situations just happen. Perhaps he didn't like the way we looked - who knows! Anyway, we started off with the cheesy biscuits and the fried green tomatoes that were delicious (though a bit greasy). It also seemed that the cheese in the cheesy biscuits wasn't melted. We actually thought there were bits of carrots in the bread. Not sure what kind of cheese doesn't melt when baked. Anyway, our table entrees included fried shrimp, fried catfish, grilled snapper, and steak. We all really did enjoy the food, though we had to send back an order (steak arrived well done, but medium rare is what was ordered); we finally received the steak as requested, but after the rest of the table had already started eating (or our food would have gotten cold); never good when an order has to be sent back due to the server's error - this just throws the whole table off. Anyway, did receive the correct order a little over ten minutes later. The good food may draw me back to the restaurant when I am in town again, but I will be sure that we have a different server.

    Bailey took care of us Sunday as our server! She was incredible! She was super fast, pleasant,…read morepatient and professional! The appetizer came out piping hot and delicious! It was 1/2 dozen oysters with cheese....... Phenomenal!! We were able to walk in and get seated right away. The restaurant beamed with it's relaxed atmosphere with fish hanging on the wall and pictures of fishing adventures..... Great place to eat and hang out! Thanks Bailey!!! You set the bar high!!
