Passed by this spot by chance a few weeks ago. Have been wanting to try seafood boil for a while…read moreso gave it a shot. Stopped by after work but unfortunately happy hour was over at that point (I think we arrived at 6:30PM ish). Did not make a reservation but were sat down super quickly. The service was quick and attentive. Loved the ambiance and theme throughout the establishment. The bar in the front still gave that grove street vibe. We ordered Combo A (crawfish and headless shrimp) with their special seasoning plus fried catfish with sweet potato fries. Those sweet potato fries were amazing, best I've ever had. They were seasoned so well, I think cajun seasoning, and nicely crisp. The boil was good, wish it came with more of the sauce/seasoning. I liked the shrimp but was not a fan of the crawfish. Definitely going to return to try a different combination..

What you may not know is that in addition to sidewalk seating in the front, they have a cute courtyard area as well more within the restaurant. It is a bit more intimate and quiet than being in the front. The food is good! They have a nice selection ranging from lobster to crawfish. I ordered the shrimp basket which was delicious. I really enjoyed their home made lemonade as well. Price wise the place is reasonable given its location. I would definitely come back again.

Idk how long their Cinnamon Toast Crunch shot last but it's definitely a go to! I would have gotten 3 of those vs spending $18 on a drink honestly. The automatic gratuity is helpful but idk how much goes to the waiters because I'm not paying that plus an additional tip. Nice decor and they sometimes have a DJ which always can turn dinner into a party!

I was looking to make a quick purchase of a bag of fish that is pre-packaged for quick sale and no one would assist me, refusing to conduct the sale before the allotted time.

The catch of the day was solid but could be more flavorful. The fries weren't my favorite as you couldn't really taste the truffle. I also generally prefer thin cut fries. Service (4/5): The staff were nice and friendly. The place was very busy when we went on Sunday late afternoon around 530pm. Some of the items like the fish and chips weren't available because the shop was short staffed. The food took around 25 min to come out due to the short staff. Ambiance (5/5): Chill fish shop ambiance with indoor and outdoor seating. Nice relaxing music playing and cool fishing decor. Tables inside are a bit cramped while outdoor tables have more space. Spot is pretty busy.

We used to buy fish from Citarella in Manhattan, but now we're glad to have a local store that sells top-quality fish. We often buy their salmon to make oven-baked salmon with red bell peppers and onions over jasmine rice. Their salmon is always incredibly fresh, moist, and tasty. I also love their oyster po' boy and 'fish of the day' sandwiches. I highly recommend Scale's fish to anyone who lives in or visits Jersey City.

Perfect compliment to the day eating my favorite food Sushi. Now I have to take the opportunity as hubby doesn't like it so when we travel no sushi restaurants. Lucky for me and Mom Izumi is the best at sea! So we start with the classics a nice Japanese beer and edamame it was a generous serving with just the right amount of salt. Pork dumplings, and tempura vegetables were terrific for everything else I got adventurous so I said bring me what you do best. That is when they brought everything and alot of it. The chicken dish was exceptional. I ended with a sweet dessert a sesame ball with a sweet dark paste inside it was delicious. If I could I would eat here every day. From the warm greeting of the maitre d who addresses every guest by name. Very nice touch to the intimate setting and the fellow guests most seemed to be here for all their meals. I don't blame them as it was fantastic.

My wife was on a lounge chair about 11ish and I decided to join her after a few screwdrivers made with Titos Vodka. Long Story short, I konked out on the chair! Not to worry, I don't burn. My Italian-Greek skin only gets like skin colored mocha. Sing it! Once I woke up, I was craving a Sapporo and a nice roll. Enter Izumi. We walk in and we're told, sorry we're closed. Oh man, really? Ok.. Come in. We'll accommodate you. That folks, is excellent customer service *Royal Caribbean, are you reading this?? I ordered a funky roll and my wife ordered a nice salad topped with poached lobster and other shaved fish items that she quietly passed to me. An amazing lunch and I thank you for allowing us to dine at Izumi.

And as a bonus, it has not yet been "discovered" by the Yelp Elite / food influencer crowd (besides yours truly). The Alexandrian Style Shrimp was huge and delicious, but the Grilled Branzino (and really, any whole grilled fish) is the big, belting diva of the menu and one you should not miss. Whole, ground spices are packed into every bite care of lovely marinade, and your teeth will rejoice at how tender the meat is. Entrees all come with generous, complimentary portions of salad, tahini and pita, as well as lots of fluffy rice, so you can't walk away hungry. The prices are on the higher side, sadly--it seems nowhere is immune to inflation these days--but at least you'll get a ton of bang for your buck.

A Little Unassuming Gem for Alexandrian Food in JC…read more I found this place on a Eater Jersey City list and wasn't expecting much but the food was surprisingly delicious. The space is small, about 8 tables, with dated, seventies decor, complete with plastic on the tables. Only one woman in the kitchen. We had the grilled Orata, which came with rice, salad, babaganoush and tahini sauce, side of eggplants with peppers in tomato sauce and the Alexandria style shrimp. Everything was fresh, the fish grilled to perfection and the shrimp well-seasoned. There is also a sandwich menu, but it was not available that day. This place as all of the elements I love in small businesses; no pretention, no gimmicks and no "fusion"...just authentic, simple, home made food, from kitchen straight to my stomach with no orchestra and fireworks. My only gripe is that the prices are high but given that food costs have risen so quickly in the last few years, I completely understand.

One line to place your order and another to pay. Both moved quickly. The only wait was the time it took to steam the food which wasn't long either.

Always my go-to for snow crabs!!

Then I go on her page the next day and she is advertising going to different cities/states. I told her she doesn't even tend to her own city and then she replies 'of course not if im closed or sold out.. next'. The 3 bit conversation is below. I couldn't get the full conversation because she blocked me. But it went from that to her telling me I look like a cabbage patch doll and 'why am I tripping? I do not look like I am missing any meals'. Lol her excuse to not replying back is 'when you call the Chinese food place do they call you back the next day asking for your order'. Stupid analogy. Since I called when she was 'open' and the PROFESSIONAL thing to do is to write me back explaining that she's sold out.
