I stumbled upon this restaurant on Google last night and decided to come and try it for lunch today. The market/restaurant itself isn't super big but they have a nice selection of seafood items for sale, both fresh and frozen. There are about 4 tables to sit down at. I ordered the lobster roll and the truffle fries. I forgot to ask for the lobster roll Connecticut style (which I usually prefer) when I ordered so the sandwich had cold lobster with a mayo type sauce on it as well as tomatoes, pickles, and lettuce and it was delicious! It tasted fresh and came with a good portion size. The truffle fries were also good and not too salty. The food was served pretty quickly as well. I will definitely be coming back here to try more of the menu! read more

Stopped in for some fresh fish and was very disappointed to see most was sourced from Vietnam which is notorious for mislabeling as well as having contaminated product . Young man at counter was not very knowledgeable. Not an enticing experience. read more

I have to start off by saying A1 service. We placed an online order through the site for a half pound of catfish nuggets and onion rings, and the she crab soup. When my husband went to pick up the order, they realized that their ticketing system wasn't working since it was new, so they gave us an extra order of catfish nuggets on the house! These nuggets weren't nuggets. They were super large chunks, lightly battered, and super juicy! The crab soup was FULL of shredded crab, and the onion rings were nicely fried. We loved everything, and thank you to Fishmongers for going above and beyond with their customer service! read more

I saw a friend post about this spot so I hurried to check it out! Fishmongers Seafood Market has a ton of fresh and frozen seafood/shellfish for sale to prepare at home, and they also have a restaurant counter for takeout meals. I love a good fried fish basket, so I was really excited to check it out. The food menu is large and a bit overwhelming, but the person taking our order was very helpful, kind, and patient. I ordered the whitefish basket with fries, and Nate got the catfish po boy. They also have fish tacos, a soup bar, featured daily items, and catch of the day that you can have prepared how you like. The space doesn't have any tables for dining in, so be ready to take your food to go. We waited about 15 minutes for our order which was pretty quick. The portions were MASSIVE - I think I counted 8 fried filets in my basket and the po boy was huge. I am not sure if the portion sizes will continue to be large as they dial in their margins, but it was definitely a lot of food that we could've split. The whitefish was a bit fishier than I was expecting, but the breading was super crispy, light, and not at all greasy. The fries were hot and tasty, and I liked the Cajun seasoning that Nate got. I'm already planning my next visit to Fishmongers Seafood Market to try some of the seafood tacos, soup, and more fried fish! I will also be buying some scallops for my Christmas Eve dinner at home. read more

Came here to eat lunch after finding out that they have small tables to sit at! Plenty of people came in for take out orders. We tried their fried cod basket and two soups - everything was delicious!! The cod was very lightly battered and flavorful and tender. Plain fries were not too crispy or soggy. Good tartar sauce and aioli? Sauce on the side. Coleslaw just okay (slightly sweet, light on the mayo) but nothing special. Soups are piping hot- we tried the corn shrimp chowder and the lobster shrimp Mexican soup (has a kick!). We will be back to purchase seafood but also to eat again :) read more

We split the fried cod basket, an order of hush puppies, shrimp gumbo and lobster bisque. All were incredible and better than any restaurant around. Fresh and quality ingredients full of flavor. The market is clean and organized with a great selection of seafood. Professional and friendly staff. read more

Great food Owner looks like central casting for a pirate. Had the lunch special with Mrs. Boss. Third or fourth visit. I'm hooked. See ya soon ya scurvy dog. read more

Great fried fish and the sample station had several things to try for free. It's hidden behind Los Portales. I've been living close by for several years, but just discovered it a year ago. read more

Food was great. Catfish, Cod and Shrimp baskets were flavorful with the right amount of coating. Hush puppies were really good along with the Fries. Don't forget the soup bar, lobster bisque and chowders. Nice to have a go-to fish place on the north side of GR. Thanks for the friendly service and looking forward to returning for some fresh and frozen fish or seafood. read more

The staff has a Great attitude felt welcomed, the food is really good it's just over priced for the amount of food or mayb I'm just to poor $25 for the basket idk Mayb they need to hook it up a bit more with the portion read more

Fishmongers Seafood Market - Perch - Fish & Chips Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

I had been wanting to check this place out for awhile since I live closeby, so I stopped in on a weekday night about 45 mins before closing. It's a nice local seafood market on Plainfield Ave. Good selection of fish in the case, as well as a freezer of prepacked fish and shellfish. Also varieties of sauces, dips, sardines, etc. I've been wanting to switch to more local markets for seafood and meats, and I will definitely try to buy my fish and seafood from here in the future! I ordered the Faroe salmon dinner, sautéed, which came with veggies, and the fried oyster po boy. The po boy does not include any sides, but I was told it was a fairly large-sized sandwich, and it was filling on its own! I would be interested to try more of their fried seafood options and fresh seafood from the case or freezer. They also have 3 housemade soups that all sounded good too, which I want to try next time. There's a couple tables to dine in, but seems more like a takeout spot. Service was pretty efficient and I was not waiting for more than 20 minutes after ordering! I'd definitely recommend that others check out this local spot since it's a bit hidden behind Los Portales. read more

The staff are so friendly and the owner comes out to check on your food. The fish is fantastic and the coconut shrimp is to die for. They have a very small eating area so plan to take out if there aren't any tables available. read more

Wow- hard to believe that fishmongers has not even been open a month now. They run like a shop that has been open for decades. The service is incredibly helpful and kind. They have a fresh case, frozen cases, hot soup bar, drinks, sauces and species. The options are truly endless- scallops, salmon, shrimp, alligator tail, trout, smelt, catfish, snapper, crab legs, etc! They have an expansive menu for dining as well. There is a small seating area. Mahi Mahi tacos with mango slaw - perfectly cooked fish and fresh salsa made for a perfect combination. It was hard to put this down. Cajun fries- well cooked and crispy. The Cajun seasoning is not spicy so easy for everyone to enjoy. Coconut shrimp- WOW. A must. It was a chefs special so not sure if it will stay on the menu but I feel it should. The coconut breading was very crisp but definitely not burnt. The sauce included really topped it off. Hush puppies- you know when you go to a good seafood place in the south and get these and then feel like you can't find them that good anywhere else? Try here! read more

MUST. COME. BACK. Faroe Island salmon was delicious and I cannot wait to try out their red snapper. All wild caught!

Great takeout joint, small interior and they sell a wide variety of raw fish to be cooked at home. I got the cod box and it was enough to split. The fish is very well cooked and the onion rings were amazing. Would highly recommend. read more

So glad we have a fishmonger on this side of town! For our first time trying them out I went in looking for lobster tails for New Year's Eve for our family of 4. The gentleman helping me behind the counter was so helpful. There were no tails in the counter display so he wheeled a cart from the backroom with 2 boxes of tails!He explained where each of the 2 types came from and I ended up with the Canadian. They were amazing! We loved the lobster so much that a couple of weeks later we ordered fish dinners on their online system. The order was right on time when I arrived for pickup. Two of us got the walleye and two got the bluegill and we shared. Both were amazing! Nice flavored light coating - no thick, doughy fried batter here. We also had a cup of Nantucket Chowder that is out of this world. Since they opened, we've gotten chowder at least 4 times. They have 4 different types of chowder out at all times. I haven't yet ventured out to try any of the other three soups, but they all look amazing. Besides the fish dinners, they have other options like Mahi tacos (which I'm definitely trying the next time), and other yummy looking options that they make for you on the spot. There are a few tables there inside so you can eat there or take out. One thing you should know... there is no sign along the street to show you where they are. The building is set back between -and behind- the Mexican restaurant Los Portales and KAZ Auto Repair buildings. read more

Very clean, fresh, friendly, and professional. Prices are good for food, reasonable for fish. Nice gem in Grand Rapids read more

I love this place! Daily soups are fantastic! I've enjoyed the coconut shrimp, calamari salad, cod and more, can't wait to go back again and try something new! The quality of their seafood is excellent. read more

I'm a fan! I was surprised at the quality of the food and service. A great addition to Plainfield Ave. I hope it will be a huge success. We stopped mid-afternoon, and it was very busy, but our order came up in a short time. The shop was clean and cutely decorated, lacking the fishy fried smell I usually associate with fish shops. We will go back often. read more

This has been a great place to try different fish recipes. They have many different options if you're a seafood person. From crab legs to blue gills plus you can buy frozen or have it prepared for you. They also have lots of different spices and sauces to buy, take home and use on your own preference. Also seafood soups made to eat in or home for later. One of the chefs whose name is CHASE has been very much a part of making and creating some fabulous recipes. Plus he's a very positive uplifting willing to share his knowledge of preparing and or cooking. read more

The food here is top notch! It tastes fresh and delicious. it's hard to recommend just one thing when everything I've had has been amazing. But if I had to pick, the Walleye basket, battered, with lemon pepper and a side of jalapeño hush puppies is king. The gentleman working has always been super nice and helpful. It's clean and doesn't smell like a fish market, even though it is one. read more

Great addition to GR. Got the New England clam chowder, fish tacos, poke and mussels. Will be back!

Outstanding. Mahi Mahi tacos with Mango salad, coconut shrimp, and oyster Rockefeller. Everything was cooked and seasoned incredibly well and served hot. Service was quick and so friendly! Ate everything before we could take photos, cannot recommend enough, special! read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE this new place! Finally, a respectable fish market on the north east side. Dine in or takeout, it's all so fresh and so good. In particular, the mahi tacos cannot be beat. I just had some on the San Clemente pier in California, and fishmongers beats them by a mile! We can't wait to go back! read more
