The fish is fresh and you can pick chips or rice on the side. I really like their rice is very authentic. The portion is huge can feed 2 party. The price is good only $12 flounder with rice. read more

I visited Jose Fish Market last weekend and must revise my evaluation downward one star to three stars. The service is still great at the counter and the value proposition is still there. However, something has happened to the rice. Let me first correct a few things from my previous review. The front awning does have the name of the restaurant on it. Jose Fish Market is not brightly painted or printed on the awning. Second, they have flounder instead of trout. The flounder is still a generous piece of fish for $11 for the platter with rice and peas. This time the rice and peas were not edible in my opinion. I do not know what happened, but something was very very off about the rice. I would rather have the fish alone and would be hesitant to have the rice ever again here. The chicken wings at $10 for four and fries is still a great value and the wings were crispy and great with the hot sauce, even the fries were good with hot sauce. read more

Jose Fish Market - Menu and counter at Jose Fish Market - Seafood Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

$10 whiting plate and $12 flounder plate. Excellent with rice. Super hot and crunchy, recommend eating it right there when it's piping hot.

Simple setting. My go to spot for a fried combo. Scallops, shrimp, 2 pieces of fish, crab sticks and fries. When I don't want a fast food "fish on a bun". Doesn't disappoint. Price has gone up since COVID but leaves me full. Order is ready quickly, prepared when you place your order. Try non-peak times, and enjoy. read more

Wow. Impressive, you can order raw fish to take home. Or you can order the fresh fish of your choice and have them to fry your orders. There is also limited amount of sitting. Customer Service is great, warm and friendly. Great place just to relax and enjoy your assortment of fried fish . read more

Ate here today for lunch by myself on a hot Friday and first day of July. I had only ordered the fried fish, fried crab sticks, fried scallop and fried shrimps with french fries. It had tasted super good and really hot from the fryer! As an overall, I was extremely satisfied with my meal! The service was also really good, super quick, friendly and affordable as well! Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time for lunch/anything else! :) read more

I use to not like seafood at all. Then one day my dad brought me here and made me try the shrimp, boy was I surprised!! I fell in love ever since and that was more than 10 years ago! This place is amazing !! Always fresh and food taste great. The price is cheap very convenient. Not pricey at all. Worth it . Food is delicious! Highly recommend this place ! Workers are sweet too. They have a seating place. Combo meals are decent portion . Love this place . read more

Jose Fish Market - Shrimp - Seafood Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

Got the #3 Fried fish- was okay. The filet was sort of tough and thin Fried shrimp- I really enjoyed the crispness Fried scallops- was okay Fried rice- tasted re-heated Nothing tasted fresh. I had a really greasy feeling in the back of my throat afterwards. Maybe I should have gotten the soup instead. Overall, not the best, but OK. read more

Jose Fish Market - #3 - Seafood Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

Food and service is excellent Week priced Food portions are great I would recommend to all read more

It's essentially a fried seafood shack. It's not pretty, it's not fancy, it's cheap and quick seafood. The Korean lady in the front is nice. It's a quick eating spot, there is a long counter on both sides of the restaurant where you eat along the wall or a island that fits around 10 people. It's a very humble working class restaurant. The food: Soup- it's pretty much a Fisherman's stew. It's fish chunks with assorted vegetables, it's actually pretty good. It's filling, warm and flavorful. Flounder with rice- I was kinda surprised how much I enjoyed the flounder, I would definitely get it again. It was fried nicely and the fish was firm and meaty. There were tabeslide condiments of tartar, hot sauce and ketchup. The rice was just rice, think I will try a flounder sandwich next time. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/jose-fish-market-jackson-heights#2eFC0JUkRPZ9M0Cn3vGBXg read more

Jose Fish Market - Fried Flounder with rice - Seafood Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

The combos are all super affordable. I got a fried fish with fried shrimp. You get to choose between rice or fries. I chose rice because I did not want more fried food. The rice wasn't great, but it wasn't awful. It wasn't greasy. They really do their seafood well. I definitely recommend the seafood.I wish there were a little sign that said how much add-ons would be because I would've loved to order their fried scallops and plantains. It would also be great to just have a platter of JUST fried seafood as an option without any extra carbs. As I was sitting at a table, this older man was playing guitar which was a bit loud at first, but then I got used to it and it was nice. It was a good experience. The place was busy, but not packed. Another thing I noticed while sitting there for 15-20 minutes or so is that a lot of people ordered their soup. All the locals had a bowl, but I was too full to have any, so i'll have to revisit the store for some. It can get a bit loud in there since the door is kept open and it is located directly under a train station. A lot of people come in and try to sell you things. Overall, the food is worth the rest of the noise. I'm definitely coming back here for more food soon! read more

It is super greasy and delicious hole in the wall that has a casual attire dress code. Exactly what we expected. They offer many different options all with french fries or fried rice. It's a great way to get a ton of food for an affordable price. I genuinely like the fried shrimp and the fried rice. It was so good! Now, you don't have to go all the way to the city for deep fried seafood goodness. read more

I had stumbled into this place on a friday night in search of something different. i originally wanted to go find a steam-table type of a hispanic place, but im glad i came in here and ate. the atmosphere has the smell of fried fish. AFTER ALL, IT IS A FRIED FISH PLACE. as much as it is confusing to see the sign outside and come in here and see two korean ladies taking care of you at the counter, the quality and the taste is pretty much straightforward, and good! i had the whole fish (tilapia) and fried rice special for 6 dollars, and i must say IT WAS HELLUVA GOOD. the fried rice was subtly flavored but not greasy, and the fish had its head and bones intact. props to them for feeding me a fish dish that is unmistakeably fish - but if you like your fish to be filleted, they have that too. i just have a largely huge preference for whole fish since most fish here in the united states is served in "non fish shapes" my 6 dollar meal, lasted me 2 meals - i ordered it to go, but ate the first half in the restaurant (so i can take the rest home) and had the leftovers two days later and it was still good! i never learned to finish the american sized portion, and i never want to. saves me money and keeps my beer belly trim! this place is almost right under a subway stop, so if you are in the nabe, drop by and eat fish. its good for you! read more

Decent. Vegans don't come here. Health nuts, avoid this place. Come to eat fried food. Fried fish, fried scallops, fried imitation crab, fried flounder, fried, and rice. The place is a little janky. Don't come here for a first date, unless you're over impressing one another and just want to eat fried food. Also the TV show with the sensual sounds was kind of distracting. The vibe with the service is not the friendliest, but it's not like they're rude either. They're just doing business. The good: everything here is very cheap! $5-7 for every choice. I like that they give you lines, tartar sauce, hot sauce and ketchup with your order. Enhances the meal even more :) Improvements: - I wish the pieces of fish were cut just a little thicker. It's not the thickest filet I've tried. - I wish they would switch up the batter to a crispier breading with all the nooks and crannies. But for a $6 meal what do you want? read more

Fresh Fried Fish Heaven! This is one of Jackson Heights hidden gems! Best fish shack in the area. I love this place! You simply have to come and try it. I recommend their fried flounder combo that comes with fried flounder filet and Asian fried rice or fries or the Fresh fried Tilapia (not the breaded one, but the one where you choose the fish and they deep fry it for you). You can also get the Fisherman's stew! It's pretty good with chunks of assorted veggies. Oh! And did I mention that it's super cheap??? Most meals under $8, cash only though! Can't beat this deal! read more

10/10 Fried fish. Super cheap price, large quantity, and fresh seafood. I sadly can't come here anymore because I moved away but I WISH there was a Jose's near my house. I recommend their scallops, whiting fish, shrimp, and soup. They're fried to perfection! Their fries and fried rice is excellent too. Add some tartar sauce and a soda to go with the fried goodness, and you're in heaven. I'm drooling while writing this review. ugh...... read more

Just greasy fried food with thick batter of flour. No taste. Some were over cooked and burnt. The taste usually comes from the condiments provided like mayo, hot sauce... bring your money somewhere healthy and filling. I wish I didn't eat here. My coat and I smelled like food. read more

It definitely took me a while before I decided to venture into JFM. It used to focus more on selling *fresh* seafood and has recently morphed into the only spot in Elmhurst/Jackson Heights where you can get your fill of Americanized fried seafood goodness. The meals are deals - most under $8. The selection is a bit limited though (a couple types of fish, shrimp, scallops, fries) when compared to other fish places that decided at some point to install deep fryers. (No fresh calamari :( although, they serve soup!) JFM's is definitely a good quick-fix spot (keep in mind that it's definitely NOT higher-end quality so one should not expect Chip Shop/Molly Blooms/A Salt & Battery meal here.) where you can hang under the tracks and chow down on fried goodness while watching free cable. read more

Jose Fish Market - Fish and shrimp and fries (number 7) - Seafood Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

Great fried fish spot in Jackson Heights! Good and friendly service with prices at the usual end. Even though that the fries were previously frozen, the whiting was fresh and piping hot. I saw for myself that the whiting was hand breaded, guaranteeing the fish's freshness. Ask for a límon (lime) to squeeze on the fish, as good as it sounds. I would come back if it is possible. read more

Great prices and convenient with 7 train and a couple bus stops just around the corner. Easy to find but cash only place. There's a couple different bank and ATMs around at walking distance so it's alright. Not a ton of different choices but there are a few. Pretty fresh ingredients especially with that good price. Portion is just right and gets busier in the late afternoon/evening. read more

Jose Fish Market - two plates of fried fish and fries - Seafood Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

3.5 stars. I wish Yelp had a .5 stars rating. I'm just torn giving this place between 3 and 4 stars. While this place is ridiculously inexpensive for a fried seafood fare (about $9 for a plate containing a few substantial flounder fillets and a good portion of fried rice) and giving a fast/efficient service but the greatness just stops there. Flavor wise, it's too plain and nothing to write home about. The fish is screaming for more seasoning and so is the fried rice (perhaps a hint of soy sauce & chili sauce & shallot will help?). The place also could do a little cleaning. Anyhow, not sure if I will come back unless I'm feeling like eating cheap fried seafood again. read more

Jose Fish Market - Fish plate - Seafood Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

If 6 stars was possible on Yelp i would give this place 6 stars. First of all the combos here are ridicolous, If you get any combo with fried rice or french fries OH MY GOD it is so worth it either way. Once you enter the place of course its not going to be all 5 stars and what not but that doesnt matter to the person who cares only about the food and fast service like me. I always get number 3 with Fried Rice. Comes with Whitning fish,scallops and shrimps all for just 5 bucks. The most expensive plate i think runs around 7 bucks which is cheap for fish. Every fish here is fried if you get the combo but it is so delicious and so worth the cheap price plus the soups are good also and they have a big selection of fresh seafood such as oysters, clams etc. Pretty much anything you get here is perfect and fried to perfection. Plus their tv is always playing an awesome movie. read more

Who doesn't like fish and chips or fried food? Well I don't usually eat fried food but I was in the area and have always passed by this place for years but never went inside. Few weeks ago we did a lil food crawl in JH and we shared the number 3 which has fried fish, shrimp and scallop with fried rice for $6.50? It's a very simple breading and just fried.. not much flavor really. So it's not horrible, but it's just so damn plain.. it's affordable which is a plus if you're on a budget, but it's not something that will bring you back unless you really like cheap fried food. It wasn't greasy at least, but I still expected so much more with the 4-5 star reviews. I also didn't care for the veggie fried rice. When I hear fried rice I expect it to have that "Wok Hei" and this definitely doesn't have that. It's also a bit greasy. Once again just plain and not really flavorful, I usually make my own or buy some from TJ's. I would not come back. We are not health nuts, but if we're going to eat something fried, it better taste good at least. read more

As of the time I started writing this they close in 8 minutes!! HURRY UP!! I had what I would call the "all in" combo. It consists of fried shrimp, fried dumplings, fried scallop and crab on a stick, and fried rice. Did I mention anything about stuff being fried? They do give you a choice of rice or French fries. I very methodically ate through the items on my plate. Even though the crab seemed to be imitation, I ain't even mad cause once it's fried its ultimate goodness. Definitely stop in here if you need a delicious artery clogging meal. No joke though, it's the only place in the area with fresh fried fish and real fried rice. The staff is really friendly and they seem to enjoy working there. read more

Cheap deep fried seafood goodness! Jose Fish Market is owned and operated by a Korean family. Yes, it's Korean. Many of his employees are Hispanic. I come usually during lunch hours and it's the Korean ahjussi who runs the front. They have a variety of seafood platters on their menu. Most of them are under $10. The best in my opinion is #8. It's fried shrimps, scallops, and crab sticks w/ fried rice for just $5.50. I'm not crazy about the fake crab meat. I would prefer if they just gave more of shrimps and scallops instead. What's really surprising about their platters is their fried rice. The fried rice here is amazing! It's veggies, no meat, nada and it's still really good. If you'd like to dine in, there's plenty of seats here. It's open and spacious. No waiters, it's kinda like cafeteria style. Also, for a fish market, this place doesn't reek of fish at all. Their fish market sections seems pretty small in the back end of the store. They also have raw oysters on the menu but they look pretty small. Their fish soup and other fried seafood are all pretty good. This place would be dynamite if they made fried catfish. read more

I will say the food was cheap. Was it as great as all the 4 or 5 star reviews boasting of it nah not to me. I have had better fried seafood in Harlem and Bed-Sty. I liked the scallops but not fond of the breading mix. To me the was bit to heavy and tasteless. The shrimp had a weird not to fresh taste to me. It was masked by the oil used to fry in. Fish was ok that me and my guess had. She has eaten fish from Hong Kong and was not impressed with the varieties or types offered. I would give 2 stars for food. I gave 3 as the service was fast cashier was friendly and the place was clean. I do not think I will make a trip there again. read more

You know what, I have nothing to say about this place. I think you guys just have to come and try! It's excellent and one of the best seafood join in the area. It's perfect seasoning and excellent price. Overall I highly suggest this place to everyone. It's small and clean. Also friendly service. read more

Fried seafood (and chicken wings) done fresh and fast for $6-8 with rice or fries. Ordered a fish, shrimp, and scallop combo with fries (#3) for $6. Everything was thrown in the fryer after I ordered and was done in less than 5 minutes. Fish came out great, crispy outside with a moist inside and not overdone so that the fish is mushy. Shrimp wasn't rubbery although the breading didn't adhere that well. Most surprisingly was that the scallops were not overdone either. A lot of places that are much fancier than this place will overcook their scallops but this place did it very well. The portion size for the single order could probably be split comfortably between two people. Standard condiments are available (ketchup, hot sauce, and tartar sauce) at the tables and also packed with takeout orders. Overall a great experience and will be back when the urge for fried fish calls. read more

So this place smells like an actual fish market and you would think that it means that the fish is super fresh but NOPE that is NOT the case. We ordered: 1. whiting and fries - whiting was not fresh at all and super disappointing because the fry on it was perfect 2. Shrimp, crabstick, and scallops - again disappointed the scallops were not fresh that I didn't dare finish the rest after my first bite. I didn't even bother with the crabsticks, the shrimp was ok We didn't finish either plate and instead left very disappointed. read more

How could you not give this place 5 stars?! If you are in the mood for fried fish, all different types of fish, then this is the only place I would recommend to anyone. All the combination dishes come with fries or rice and some lime wedges. Every table has 3 huge containers of hot sauce, ketchup, and tarter sauce that you can use as much as you want. The place makes delicious fried fish that is not greasy at all plus everything is fairly inexpensive! The employees here are very nice as well! read more

Love it, the lady in the cashier is always pleasant, and so is the server wonder if that's Jose! smiling cause he is cashing in the money chin chin:). I was here with my boyfriend and he was sweating under his suit. The he states fish soup makes me "horny" and I reply is that so freak well I have the fried fish with rice so I can't agree with your aphrodisiac food claim. I have since converted to the fish soup but not for its aphrodisiac claim but because of the white fish chucks inside but the biggest contributing factor is that now I'm a broke biitch on a budget. read more

Absolutely love this place. Used to come here pretty often but it's not until i moved away that i realized good fish and chips are very hard to find. The flounder is much better than the whiting if youre choosing between the two. Every time ive been there, the battered flounder comes straight outta the fridge and into the fryer so you can see that it's fresh. Fish is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The batter doesnt fall apart in your hands like old skin. And prices are very reasonable. You won't regret the trip. read more

My bf likes to go to Jose Fish Market. We grabbed dinner here tonight. We shared the Combo #3 Fish/Shrimp/Scallops with Chips ($5.50). The portions are large and the plate can feed 2 people. I see a lot of people order the fish soup but I haven't tried it yet. I've only had the fried seafood combo plates here. There's nothing really spectacular about this place, the food, or the service. The batter is pretty bland. If you like fried food and you have about $4-$6 bucks in your pocket then check this place out. read more

Jose Fish Market - A gem in queens! - Seafood Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

My family and I have been coming to this place since I was really young. Greatest Seafood everrrr. Prices are really cheap and honestly I don't even know where to start because I never do reviews but, I had to do it for this spot because I never want them to close down. The sea food is amazing. I don't typically like eating seafood, but this spot honestly is where it's at. And don't forget to get there white sauce. Makes it 1000x better. This spot deserves more starts. From the seafood to the friend vegetables, you get quality food without paying quality prices. This is where it's at!!! read more

Delicious food! You get a lot for a very reasonable price. Finding the place was a bit confusing, but I got there in the end. I got the fried fish with fried rice. Not the most healthy but it definitely hits the spot if you're craving fried seafood. They have deals that consist of various seafood (fish, shrimp, crab) with fried rice or french fries. The lime was dry both times I've been there- I don't know if that's just how their limes are, but those limes are useless. Overall great food, fast service, amazing price! read more
