Description

At this W 116th St spot, the seafood is fried fresh-to-order in generous portions. For newcomers, the introductory sampler of shrimp, catfish, and whiting showcases the kitchen's seasoning: the shrimp has an unexpected sweet background flavor, while the catfish is crispy on the outside and tender inside, without a strong ocean taste. Southern-inspired sides complete the meals, though guest feedback on the side dishes is occasionally mixed.
