    Amazing new owners with top-notch product and service. Love the oysters and we bought some delicious filet of cod as well.

    Yummy hot lobster roll. Big chunks of meat. Toasty bread. Generous amount of butter. Tastes great.

    Fried clam platter - clam strips rather than full-belly clams.

    This is a good place to go for fresher seafood in the Capital district. The fish holds together and doesn't have a fishy smell unlike some seafood counters at supermarkets. A more diverse selection of fish such as arctic char, bronzini, trout, and halibut can be sourced here. The fresh oyster, clam, and sea scallop section is always worth a look. Additionally, they have some frozen fish, crab legs, lobster tails, etc. in a separate freezer section. As I understand it, flash frozen seafood can keep for a longer duration of time without severely compromising the taste and texture. The meals I've had here have "scratched the itch" if you're looking to satisfy a taste of oceanic protein. I even remember Chef Katie (now the proprietor of Hooked Seafood) working her magic in their kitchen. There is limited seating within the shop if you want to eat in but, most of the time, I order take out. One niggling thing, for me, a person who lived in coastal Rhode Island for over 20 years, fried clams are full-belly clams, not clam strips. Flatlanders eat clam strips. Besides that, this place has always been a reliable bet for fresh seafood.

    Updating my review because I have since had the pleasure of trying more things. Fin has become a weekly staple in our household's grocery agenda. The sword fish steaks knock every other grocery store's out of the park. The lobster mac n' cheese from the frozen section is delectable, as is their garlic aioli dipping sauce. This place has not let me down yet

    Beer to go with amazing fish and chips!

    Back for More yummy food! Fresh fish and chips A taste of New Zealand and some Massachusetts specialities thrown in.... The chips - aka French fries are devastatingly good - it means I want to simply keep eating them one after another... crisp but not hard outside, perfect soft middle and flecks of salt perfectly flavor these lovely potatoes. A generous piece of fish that flakes perfectly in see my fork. This is an Icelandic style batter, To be clear. You can choose fresh homemade tartar with chunks of gherkins, homemade spicy of regular cocktail sauce or the simple Lemon to go with it. They also have malt vinegar in case that is your thing. I love the variation in the pieces of cabbage in the slaw. Some thinner some bigger, crisp, crunchy and lite - a perfect accompaniment. I plowed through the Massachusetts delights in no time at all. So good!

    So would it be accurate to say that the only way to get an order of fresh shrimp is to "like" them on FB? What about those who are opposed to FB and refuse to join?

    Not at all, Chuck! You can send a message to our website (finshops.com) to ask about fresh shrimp and after we reopen on Tuesday, 6/9, you can call us 518.452.4565. You can sign up for our newsletter on any page of our website and receive a Monday…

Eight different varieties.Tedie got fresh whole billy clams I got a white fish sandwich whatever white fish they cut fresh that day didn't check which one it was. No need it was delicious. Crabcakes phenomenal and a restaurant where you can go in and buy fresh fish right from the counter definitely makes it one of a kind. let's just say it was so good when they said it in front of us I didn't take any pictures because I was more interested in eating. service is amazing but then again the owner was the one that was serving us, And just the inside of it is a quaint looking restaurant a very very clean restroom.

Well, at least we kept our word today when we ordered their two different bowls for takeout. My wife ordered the Fishbowl ($30) with the grilled fish of the day (salmon), cherry tomatoes, quinoa, feta, peaches, arugula, and basil lime vinaigrette (she said no to onions). She could not get over how tasty the quinoa tasted and wondered how they prepared it. She also thought the peaches could have been a little sweeter since we are in prime peach season. While the salmon was just slightly overcooked we'll attribute that to it continuing to cook as we drove the meals home. Even with those minor negatives, she said she would definitely order the dish again. I chose the Poke Bowl ($35) for my meal (my first ever poke bowl) with marinated raw tuna and salmon, edamame, cucumber, watermelon radish, snap peas, nori, avocado, sesame seeds, scallions, and pea tendrils, all over sushi rice with ginger gochugaru oil and soy sauce on the side. This was absolutely delicious. It was a wonderful blend of fresh flavors and textures. If I have another poke bowl somewhere else I only hope it can come close to measuring up to the enjoyment I experienced with this one.

I decided last minute that I was going to take home a bunch of shucked oysters with my tuna. Score! They shucked them right there (you also have the option to take them home and do it yourself). The oysters were delicious-even though they forgot one. I was sad. Honest mistake, I guess. The ahi tuna was great-I made it in 2 different ways-tartare with spicy mayo and seared. Delicious. Really fresh seafood and I like the new (ish) location. Very spacious with a counter for coffee and takeout. I spied beer taps and there might be plans for getting those up and running at some point. Plus, there's a kitchen in the back...so stay tuned.

Moby Rick's kitchen is not ready yet so they don't have the ability to prepare any of the fish at this location. They are hoping to have the kitchen completed by Summer. For cooked fish you'll currently have to go to their Clifton Park location (which currently is only providing takeout during the COVID-19 restrictions). Since we were in Saratoga we decided to check out their new location and bring something home to cook for dinner. There was a lot of fresh fish to choose from and we narrowed it down to either halibut or sea bass. I decided on the sea bass because we've never cooked it at home before. It was about $35/lb., which is a fair price. My wife prepared it with some white wine, butter and shallots and it was absolutely delicious. The fish was so fresh and tasty.

    Union Seafood on Central Avenue in Albany is described as "Chinese meets Louisiana," according to…read morethe restaurant's website. I've been there before and the crazy, giant fiberglass crab on display in the entrance is always a hoot. So is the fiberglass shark head on the wall in the dining area. I like a place with a sense of fun and humor. I also like this place for its seafood boils. The good news is that this restaurant--which was very good to begin with-- has gotten even better. Last time I showed up, the server brought the seafood boil still in its boiling bag and cut it open in front of me. It was up to me to reach into the hot bag and pull out its contents. There was steam everywhere. A hot mess, indeed! This time, the kitchen took care of the boiling bag for me. Instead, they beautifully arranged the boiled seafood on a large platter. Wow. It looked amazing and tasted even better! This time, I'd asked for a Number 4 with mix of seasonings, including garlic and butter. There were: one big lobster tail, plenty of shrimp, clams, crawfish, potatoes, corn on the cob, hard boiled eggs and extra veggies. It was described as enough to feed three people. Coincidentally, we were a party of three. We also ordered a Cajun Fried Rice for good measure. We really didn't need it. We were so full. The fruit drinks were great, too. Union Seafood is a franchise with locations in Troy and Schenectady. They're owned by Larry Weng who also opened Ji Bei Chuan Rice Noodles & Ramen on Western Avenue in Guilderland, according to local news reports. In celebration of May being AAPI (Asian American Pacific Islander) Month, it's probably fair to say that Asian-American owned restaurants such as Union Seafood have added much variety to the overall dining experience in Capital Region. Vive la différence.

    Union Seafood is one of those spots that keeps things simple and lets the seafood speak for itself…read more Everything had that fresh, straight-from-the-kitchen feel, and the portions were satisfying without feeling overdone. I also liked that the flavors weren't trying too hard just good seafood, seasoned well and served hot.
