Hidden gems are a travel blogger's best friend, and stumbling upon Fulton Fish Fry in Las Vegas felt like finding a culinary jackpot. Tucked away from the Strip’s neon-lit glamour, this unassuming eatery offers a genuine taste of Southern-style seafood that is both comforting and exhilarating. It’s the kind of place you hope to discover on your travels, a spot that prioritizes flavor and heart over flash and fanfare.
The atmosphere at Fulton Fish Fry is all about the food. It’s a no-frills setting where the aroma of frying seafood takes center stage, immediately whetting your appetite. The simplicity allows you to focus on what truly matters: the perfectly prepared dishes coming out of the kitchen.
My order was a true test of their offerings, and I started with the Fried Shrimps and Fries. The shrimps arrived with a golden, crispy crust that gave way to perfectly cooked, tender meat inside. The seasoning was spot on, offering a savory kick that was not overwhelming, allowing the fresh flavor of the shrimp to shine. The fries, too, were a delight; crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, they were the perfect vehicle for a dash of salt and a squirt of lemon.
Then came the star of the show: the Clam Chowder. Oh, this clam chowder. It’s the kind of soup that makes you pause and savor every single spoonful. Rich, creamy, and wonderfully seasoned, it was filled with tender, flavorful clams and soft, hearty potatoes. It was clear that this was a dish made with a great deal of care and attention to detail. This isn't just soup; it's a bowl of pure, unadulterated comfort.
Not to be outdone, the Fried Fish and Fries were just as impressive. The fish was flaky and moist, encased in a light, crunchy batter that held its integrity without being greasy. Paired with the same delicious fries, it was a classic combination executed to perfection. The generous portions for all the dishes are something to note; you leave feeling more than satisfied, a rarity for such reasonable prices.
Speaking of which, the value for money at Fulton Fish Fry is excellent. Given the quality and freshness of the seafood, the prices are incredibly fair. It’s a place that proves great food doesn't have to come with a hefty price tag.
The service was another highlight. Friendly, fast, and efficient, the staff added to the pleasant dining experience. They were attentive without being intrusive, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable meal from start to finish.
Verdict Fulton Fish Fry is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic, no-nonsense seafood. With its fresh, well-seasoned dishes, generous portions, and exceptional clam chowder, it’s a true hidden gem. I highly recommend it to families, casual diners, and anyone who appreciates a hearty, satisfying meal that offers great value for money. It’s the perfect spot for a delicious escape from the usual tourist traps and a genuine taste of...
Read moreMy husband placed an order with Fulton Fish Frye in New York New York. Yuranny took the order. We ordered and paid for the chicken and fish plate. As we are sitting and waiting for our food, we are watching as customers that came after us get served before us. My husband went to the counter and come to find out, they “forgot” to cook our food. My husband made the decision to get calamari instead because it wouldn’t take as long to cook. Yuranny said that the calamari was cheaper than the chicken and fish plate and she couldn’t give us a refund. On top of that, Yuranny never apologized to my husband for the mess up. So, not only did we not get the difference in money back for her mess up, but we also didn’t even get a simple apology. I went up to the counter myself to get the calamari and told her it was bad customer service to not even offer an apology and I was met with a snotty look as she was holding my calamari close to her body. I HAD TO ASK HER TO GIVE ME MY FOOD AND SAUCE. She is horrible and horrible for this business as well as the tourist business in a popular Las...
Read moreIt gets 3 for the price, but for the most part, this food isn't very good. They bread and fry it in front of you so you know it's fresh. But the chicken is VERY bad. Just a weird flavor; hard to describe but you can't say "It tastes like chicken". LOL The fries were good. The fish was okay. Everything was VERY greasy. My wife had the cole slaw and said it was good. Staff was less than stellar. I had to repeat my order many ... too many times. It was at least four times. Instead of listening to what I wanted, she kept trying to ring me up before I finished. I admit I finally gave up and told her to stop typing and just listen. Then she got it right. I felt bad, but at that point, I was already ticked. Despite having terrible chicken, we did have a TON of food with plenty leftover. I don't think I would go back, given all the other options, but it wasn't a terrible...
