Pisces Fish Market — Restaurant in Boston

Upon entry to the Fish Market / Restaurant about five or six customers where waiting for Sea Food that they ordered freshly cut and prepared or ordered from the kitchen. I approached the female taking orders. It is safe to assume that many Korean /Asian Business owners that server African-American communities are short on Patience and lack Customer Service Skills / Training. None the less, I really wanted some Flownder and Shrimp, but that was an impossibility and she let me know that if I wanted Cat Fish, it would be extra in addition to a High Price. So the logical and most economical choice was the Haddock with Shrimp and fries. I paid for what I ordered, sat down and waited. Approximately five minutes later she called my number and I came to the counter to remove the container from the bag to inventory and season my food. When I opened the container, there were two small pieces of Fish with an ample amount of Shrimp carefully placed over French Fries. Presentation looked nice. I drizzled some Hot Sauce over the Fish and Shrimp and Ketsup on the Fries. I came back to my Car, sat down, opened up the bag, and removed the container with the food inside. Of course there was not any Cocktail Sause for the Shrimp. I began to dig in by tasting a little bit of everything. The Fish, Shrimp and Fries where over cooked and not very flavorful. When I put my fork into the Haddock Fish, it fell apart. Usually when fish is continuously frozen and unthawed, once cooked, it falls apart. The Shrimp was the best thing on the plate though they were fried a bit too hard. The French Fries were over cooked short of being burned and when I bit into them, they tasted like hot air with a faint taste of salt and ketsup that wouldn't stay on and kept rolling off when applied. It is Safe to say that if you are not from the Boston Area as I am from the South, do not waste your time and hard earned money on such bland food and more bland Customer Service. A Gentleman and Paying Customer was stranding at the counter while his food was being prepared. A female working on his order got up set and asked the paying Customer to sit down. Apparently, she felt uncomfortable with him watching her prepare his food. What was she afraid of? Like I said, there Customer Service...

This place is so busy today. Two sides, one to buy raw fish and the cooked fish/seafood, too, on the other side. They are good about it, though, as I know some ppl/customers can be impatient. And they have made the place more bright and itbis clean. Doesn't smell "fishy," which I have learned is not a good thing in a fish market. It should smell fresh and clean, not "stank fishy." I am still learning how to buy fresh fish, but this I do know. ☆☆SIDE NOTE 📝THEY DO COOK FISH WELL. DO NOT BUY CHICKEN FROM A PLACE THAT SPECIALIZES IN FISH, JUST BUY FISH OR SEAFOOD. IT ONLY MAKES SENSE TO ME, UNLESS REGULAR CUSTOMERS TELL YOU THE FRIED CHICKEN IS GOOD AND YOU DON'T MIND UNSEASEONED FRIED FOOD. THERE IS A POPEYES NEXT DOOR IF YOU WANT...

The woman, that's the owner, conveniently "forgot" to give my friend the 2 bluefish that we paid $50 for on top of the fisherman's platter that we bought totaling $80. She initially tried to give us the fish with the red eyes, and even chastised a worker for bringing out 2 good fishes for us because she was trying to get rid of the a bad one by giving it to us and trying toplay us, which she ultimately did. She handed the fisherman's platter, added $2 extra for one extra tartar sauce and hurried us out. This is Saturday, and Pieces is closed on Sunday so do I get 2 fresh fish on Monday or the same 2 from Saturday. I still have my ticket and receipt so I will be back with an update on Monday. Hopefully Pices...
