I have been purchasing seafood from the original A.N.S. Seafood in Elmsford for 2 decades. Their prices are much more reasonable than the two fishmongers in Mt. Kisco, and levels above the stuff you get in a supermarket. The owner, Nick Konstantakopoulos, is up everday at 2 am to go to the Fulton Fish Market, thatâs how fresh the fish is! Given how far my home is from Elmsford I could not have been more excited to find out about their new store in Mahopac, which is considerably closer to where I live.
Went there for the first time a coupla days ago and could not be happier! The store is clean and bright, with the delicious smell of super fresh fish. The selection and prices are the same as the Elmsford location. Nick, who mans the counter could not have been more helpful.
Unlike the location in Elmsford, this location also has a cafĂ©. I canât wait to have a meal there. And if you arenât interested in whatâs on the menu they will prepare whichever piece of fish you select from the case for $5 over the retail price.
On this occasion I purchased sashimi grade tuna and salmon to make poke bowls at home. The quality of the fish was, as always, spectacular!
A note to anyone looking for fresh lobsters: the store does not yet have lobster tanks installed, just give them a call in the morning and they will bring your bugs up from Elmsford in time for dinner.
Not to toot my own horn, but I am and excellent home cook and always want the highest quality products for my kitchen. YOU CAN NOT GO WRONG with anything at ANS. Drive up and give them a try, you won't be...

If I donât, I would never bash a place - I simply wonât go again and will advise anyone that asks my opinion accordingly. Ample parking. Walked into a clean atmosphere warmly greeted by the owner. Such a nice guy that I really, really wanted to at least like the food. I love the idea that you can pick whichever seafood you are in the mood for (and he has an impressive selection) from the display case which you pay by weight and then + $5 for them to prepare it as you choose (grilled, seared or fried). During lunch, it comes with fries and house-made coleslaw. Had the grilled shrimp, calamari and scallops. WellâŠunfortunately we didnât like it - WE FRIGGIN L O V E D IT - O M G SHUT THE FRONT DOOR - WAAAAAAAAAAA - HOLY GUACAMOLE, GOOD LORD UP IN HEAVEN! Even though the food was in transit for approximately 25 minutes (we did take out) - I cannot express how delicious everything was. So soft and mouth watering delicious. Such quality, freshness and grilled to perfection. Fries tasty and the coleslaw was perfection too. He really has a good thing going. If you havenât already - RUN, donât walk to try them - you will NOT regret it. Dine in or take out. Seriously, go see for yourself. Wow, just, wow. We most definitely look forward to trying all of...
   Read moreI have been a loyal customer of the A.N.S. store in Elmsford for more than a decade. There is quite literally NO competition that even comes close to providing the quality, price, and service unless you're hauling a catch out of the ocean yourself.
When we moved up to Carmel last year, I dutifully drove down to purchase whatever I needed, and it was worth the trip every time. You can't imagine my joy when I discovered they've just opened a satellite store in Mahopac - it was like the best early Christmas present!
I danced in today to place my holiday order. We also had take-out from them this evening, and everything was spectacular: tremendous fried shrimp, excellent clam chowder, and scallops wrapped in prosciutto. The owners are lovely, and the shop itself is huge and so clean it sparkles. You have the option to dine in if you choose - plenty of space and tables available.
You owe it to yourself and your family to drop in and see why I'm raving. Whether you're picking up food from their menu, or picking up something to cook for yourself at home, I guarantee you'll quickly become a loyal customer, too. Absolute perfection - would give them a hundred...
