    a variety of fish on display
    Shaima C.

    Came here on a whim, wasn't sure what I wanted to do. I've never cooked fish.... but I ended up getting a Branzino and a few pieces of the clean shrimp. There are two different Branzinos they offer, one is wild caught and the other is farm raised. The Employee was extremely helpful and patient , I asked many questions and inquired about how fresh the fish was. I ended up going with the farm raised because they were smaller. They were able to gut the fish, cut off the head and tail for me. This was extremely convenient since I've never handled a whole fish. While he was gutting my fish, I noticed they had various shrimps, some where already cleaned out. I ended up getting 3 shrimps because sadly I've never cooked shrimp. The employees were kind, the fish was fresh, and they have a lot of different options. Will come back! And for those who are wondering, I ended up overcooking my shrimp. But the Branzino came out amazing!

    Always fresh

    This is the best fish market ever. Nico and staff treat each customer with kind attention. They carry the freshest seafood and there is always something interesting and new to try. We love ordering oysters or clams on the half shell- they coMe in crushed ice with a lemon. Ibateas of turkey this Thanksgiving, we're ordering a large fish! Perfect.

    This is my lunch today. I made grilled wild salmon :)

    Best of the best. I come here every single Sunday. I've gotten the wild salmon, octopus, calamari, flounder, sea bass, dry scallops, jumbo shrimp, and I continue to try new items. WOW wow wow these people know their stuff. Their fish is always delicious and they always give me great cooking instructions. Every item I've gotten has been so delicious. I'm excited about cooking because of what these people have to offer and it's such a great feeling to know that I'm eating great quality fish.

    The place was clean, fresh products as in (sushi grade)and very kind customer service I would go back there again to purchase my fish. Just had the 2 dozens of oysters with my husband, it was also fresh and delicious!

    I love it here. It was a lovely fish market. I bought an octopus, salmon, shrimps. They were all tasty!! I wish I could pay by Amex.

    So on the way to pick up some meat from a friend of mine in Astoria (meal will be coming tomorrow live), we stumble across Ocean Fish Market. So my beloved goes in to check it out. She sees something that she hasn't been able to find in New York City. Perfectly shaped, large bodied, whole calamari, from head to toe. The owner was very accommodating since he realized that my beloved knew something about cooking and he selected not only the calamari but also the little clams, and even checked individually to make sure each one was closed and fresh. Then upon hearing that we wanted a pound of swordfish selected one that was exactly 1 pound,And it was absolutely beautiful with exactly the aroma that you expect, which is simply the sea and nothing more. Anyhow, we get several to try and my beloved creates this meal. Which I have to say is the best I have ever had in my whole entire life. And no...it's not because I'm biased because it's that damn good.

    The fish was fresh but the owner couldn't give a dam about the service I received, apparently he doesn't need any business.

    So, if they get a good wholesale price on wild salmon or lobster tails, they will have specials on those items.

Astoria Seafood is definitely the favorite! The staff are so welcoming and warm it's like being served by friends and family. The seafood options here seem bigger than other places, though they didnt have my favorite octopus on this day. There's also a huge variety of sides to pick from. The only con I can possibly name is that we both smelled so strongly like fried calamari after dining here that I could only smell calamari on our clothes at our new year's party several hours later! Maybe poor ventilation or just a very busy day. Cannot wait to come back to Astoria Seafood. Very casual dining experience - a must for seafood lovers no frills and great value.

    Will never come back here. Heard about this place on IG and…read morethe crowd was so big when I got there so hopes were high. The lines themselves were confusing but there's an initial line inside where you grab your own seafood buffet style and get online to pay. It was fun grabbing everything because even though it was a lot of people, the other customers and staff (especially the young guy at the cashier and the guy sitting next to the seafood bags) were SO nice. After paying $180, he said we can basically wait to be sat or if we find a seat we can grab it. We got on second line outside to wait for a table, but we saw two seats open with another group who said it was cool to sit with them. We sat for 30 minutes, a waitress came and brought us utensils and plates. Later this bald waiter (didnt get his name) came over and asked if someone sat us from the line and we said we were told we can just sit if there's a spot. He said that wasn't allowed and we have to go on line, we're stunned but like alright...we joined the line again where we're several spots away from where we were originally when we were first online (important for later) but we didnt think we could just cut the line back to where we were. We're waiting for about a whole hour on this line barely moving which it's a friday at a busy restaurant and I still wanna have a good time, especially because we're finally next to be sat. Then this couple just comes out from inside and stands in front of us. We're thinking like um what are they doing but confident the guy knows we're next. The bald guy comes back, asks who's next, the couple raises their hands as do we and the bald guy points at us like no wait theyre next. The couple then says they accidentally went on the line inside for a table. The bald guy is like oh okay and we're like ???? He seats them, my partner says to the bald guy that we had the same situation when we were sat initially at the table and he kicked us out and placed us at the back of the line. He apologized but didn't sit us. We're so pissed at this guy and this couple but at the same time we understand the couple because it's an honest mistake but we've been here for 1.5 hours and the only problem has been this guy. Still, we wanted to enjoy the night and were reallyyyy looking forward to the delicious food. But we end up waiting another 30 minutes to be sat and at this points it's 9pm and my partner has work at 4am in the morning. We are FINALLY sat by another waiter who is very nice and we felt bad because he just seemed busy and overwhelmed. But we're sat and given two plates and utensils. Utensils are plastic knives and forks which Id expect better but sure it's "authentic" and plates are just plain plastic plates. One plate has food still on it and I ask for a new one, then also looking at the other plate it also has sauce still on it and we ask for a new one. We get the salad we ordered and new plates. For 20 minutes, the salad was all that was served, but we also got water with our order and the salad was supposed to come with garlic bread. We ask and the waiter said they're out of bread but he'll bring the water. He brings water, then about 10 minutes later (it's now been a total of 30 minutes at the table) we finally get some of our food. We were given the mussels, scallops, and shrimp (still waiting on salmon, fish and crab legs). Now, we have been here for this long and the food looked like it was thrown on the plate with zero seasoning (we ate some but the photo was pretty much how it was served). But still thought maybe it'd taste good. ...It was so bland and unappetizing. The aesthetic instead of seeming authentic was now just looking lazy and haphazard. This is just such a let down but we got the salmon and it tasted okay, a good cut but that's about it. Then my partner was eating the mussels and got one that was raw, kind of the last straw for us after everything, my partner had to be up early for work AND we still had to wait for the fish and crab legs. He went inside with the mussels and said it was raw and mentioned just the entire mixup of the night. The people inside were SO nice about it. They asked what we'd like to do and we asked for a refund for the fish and crab legs (they finally came while he was inside about the mussels) (also the crab legs were given with no tools to open the legs but the plastic utensils). We left them untouched and just wanted a refund and to leave. He told them that they should also have a sign clarifying the lines AND about the situation when we first sat down. Even the owner said yeah we should've been served when we first sat down and that it was allowed to just grab the two seats (the bald guy was still there and overheard the entire conversation). The cashier guy was very generous and was telling us he'll give the refund but we can still enjoy the crab and fish but we really had to go. Overall, the most disappointing food and service experience besides the people inside.

Be sure to make a reservation, as this spot is popular, especially on a nice weekend. We recently had a weekend brunch at one of the tables outside.

We also had the fried soft shell crab sandwich with the side of Caesar salad. The sandwich was well balanced with the crunchy crab and herby aioli. The Caesar was light and refreshing. The fish and chips came with two fried filets of white fish and a basket of classic fries. The fish was lightly battered and flakey. The house made tartar sauce was a good complement to it.

I've never had anything like that before, but they were crispy on the outside and nice and tender on the inside. - The raw oysters and ceviche were also very good. My only complaint is that this place is quite expensive, but you do get what you pay for in terms of quality, and the portion size was decent. Our waiter was very friendly, and the ambiance inside was very nice, although it is a little tight.
