J & C Seafood — Restaurant in New York

Even though they do not steam here, I’ve eaten at this take-out restaurant for YEARS and they have NEVER disappointed me. This is at least ONE of the places I can STILL get REAL WHITING fish! and NOT have to reject that FAKE substitute going around instead. Their porgy fish is tasty too. They also usually have string beans, cabbage and/or collard greens as vegetable choices for brunch, lunch or dinner. Those whom I’ve known to eat fried shrimp here, have ALWAYS gave it a thumbs up. Let me warn though; they take their TIME here WITHOUT wasting time to PREPARE your food FRESH!!! so be prepared to WAIT for deliciously cooked goodness. If you want “Fast Food” keep it moving.

IF you are looking for something like DELICIOUS TASTING, PERFECTLY SEASONED, COUNTRY FRIED fish, cheesy grits with scrambled eggs, toast and juice or tea for breakfast or fried fish & vegetables for lunch, brunch or dinner, THIS is the place...

I ended up giving my food to a homeless person couldn’t even finish it i was disgusted. Stay away from this weird...

A great family business with a loving touch. My family and I have been patronizing this restaurant for years. The seafood is brought in fresh daily and deliously cooked fresh while you wait. There is a variety of sides to choose plus dessert offerings. My family favorite are the whitings or progies with a side of string beans and potato salad. I suggest on Friday to go early. You will NOT be...
