Fresh and delicious. I can always count on a great meal. It's hard to find a traditional seafood menu. Steamers, broiled or fried seafood platters, baked Halibut, chowders and much more. Highly recommend!

Very unassumingly situated in a strip mall this is a hidden gem. Outstanding fresh seafood at a very reasonable price. They are also a fish market and even have a small selection of fresh vegetables for sale so you can create your own dishes at home.

We had dinner last night and was blown away. Grilled swordfish, broiled scallops , fried seafood platter, corn and crab soup were all delicious. The portions were large and even the vegetables were amazing. This is really the place to go for seafood and the chef is on his A game.

If you’re looking for the freshest seafood in Jersey you have to come check out the navesink fishery! everything is fresh never frozen or from a can, right from ocean to plate and you can really tell in every dish. At this Mom and Pop vibe restaurant, the staff and atmosphere will make you feel like you came for a warm meal at your favorite grandparents house and treat you as one of their own. the flavor on these dishes is unreal and everything is handcrafted from the owner who makes sure things are running smoothly every night in the kitchen. come stop by if you are looking for a 2lb crab meat stuffed lobster or, simply a warm cup of homemade soup! 10/10 :))

We had a remarkable meal here with friends just the other night. Our server, Allie, was wonderful - pleasant, attentive, knowledgeable. Our food was fantastic - so fresh, perfectly prepared, flavorful, and the portions were very generous.
