I was surprised coming into this place, would expect fresh local seafood from this surrounding area, which was a little bit run down, mind you they don't have tables and chairs to eat here, it's a to go place They have a lot of variety of fish and seafood here, me and my girlfriend opted for the famous super sandwiches that we read from the review and boy was it super, I couldn't barely fit it in my mouth, it's like a fish o fillet on steroids, comes packed with fries, coleslaw, cheese, a wide of fish, tarter sauce and fried onions, *droolllll, I can't wait to come back here again Prices are fairly cheap too, we also got the cajun catfish sandwich which is similar to the super but I found the catfish to be a bit more fishy, btw the fishes are all fried, my Cajun catfish was $9 which came with a tray of fries and 4 yummy fried shrimp A must try, will be coming back to try their other yummy delights, wish I bought their homemade tarter sauce read more

I had food delivered via Skip The Dishes, so this is a review of the food. I ordered the Home style Rib Dinner and Sweet Potato Pie Ice Cream, yeah, I know its a seafood joint, but I was in the mood for ribs. The highs: The collard greens were fantastic! A little sweet, (maple syrup maybe?), and a little heat. It was the first time I have ever had them and they were incredible. Do yourself a favor and try them. The ice cream was really good too, I did not, however, get alot of the sweet potato pie in it, but it was really good. The ribs were tender, coming off the bone cleanly. The good: The sauce on the ribs, cole slaw, mac & cheese, ribs, and hush puppies were good, not great. The mac & cheese was really creamy. The bad: $16.99 for a rib dinner and $4.99 for ice cream and you still charge me $0.25 for plastic ware? Are you serious? You can get a solid, hearty meal from Bailey Seafood. read more

Very abundant portions and a vast menu but hit or miss on flavor depending on the item. Ordering appeared to be simple but was actually a total debacle. They have a very impressive on line menu in which to order from. Supposedly you can order before they are opened and choose a pickup time. Notice I said supposedly. This is where things began to fall apart. I placed my order at 7:40 AM for a 6:00 PM pickup and immediately received a confirmation Email. I was given instructions not to come to the restaurant to pick up my order until I received an email telling me to. Seemed pretty easy at first glance. We drove to the restaurant and parked a few doors down arriving around 5:50. At 6:01 I received an email from them. I foolishly assumed this was my pickup email. Wrong, this was another acknowledgment. I had already received an acknowledgment immediately after placing my order, why did I need another 10 hours later? At the restaurant door it was chaos. People were waiting, most with masks but some without. Grub hub drivers were waiting and upset with their wait times. Employees were bringing out orders in various stages of mask wearing. Some without, some with and some wearing it over their chins. Looking through the window the same could be seen by those working inside. I would think those working side by side should be wearing them. Some orders were coming out wrong and some had missing items. When mine came out at 6:40 I was missing a side that I had to wait another 10 minutes for. This was cornbread, an item that requires no heating up. All that was needed was to hand it to me. We dropped a steak and chicken skillet at my son's house. He was underwhelmed by it. It looked plentiful but he found the steak and chicken to be of poor quality and taste. My wife had a lobster and shrimp platter with old bay seasoning. Very plentiful and other than the shrimp being quite salty, she said it tasted good. I chose the crab, shrimp and sausage platter. It was good for the most part but the crab was lacking in flavor. As for quantity it could have easily fed 2 people. The rice that came with it could easily feed 4 or more. I added lobster bisque and cornbread. The lobster bisque was very thick and no more than average at best for flavor. The corn bread was good. To sum it up, poor organization with ordering, safety doesn't seem important to them, very generous portions, some items good, some not and some ok. Won't be returning. read more

I've passed this place a million times and never really paid too much attention. Honestly it looked like another closed business. My friend found this place and we love seafood, so we decided to check it out. Bailey Seafood did not disappoint! I will definitely be returning. Only tiny complaint I have, is that they didn't give us any forks lol. read more

Not sure how to review. The food was good, and large menu. But we thought this was a sit down restaurant. We had to fight for street side parking, there are all these other customers just standing around out on the corner outside, felt very unsafe. Felt like a drive by could happen at any moment. Woman curtly took our order, demanded payment on the spot then told us to wait 20 min. All manor of delivery people coming and going. I had steak & chicken strips, which wound up as a huge plate of rice, potatoes, corn, and what you might put in a cheesesteak, less the cheese. For $24. And we had to ASK for plastic forks, went back, and the server seemed quite annoyed. Guess she eats rice another way. Wife had fish, said haddock was just ok, but large portion. Just know what you are getting into. Can't imagine winding up here taking a date out to a seafood dinner, then eating out of a styrofoam clamshell on the sidewalk. read more

Was craving some seafood and I found this while doing some searching on yelp. I decided to give it a try. I got the haddock super combo. It's definitely enough food for two people at a great price. I would come here again. read more

Awesome fish fry place. You can't go wrong with any of their options and the portions are big! Come support this local business :)

I paid $65+ for 2 dinners and my rib dinner was not in my bag! So I ended up with wet mushy tidbits and fries!!! Never again

Tried for a second time. Both occasions the fish was just overly fishy and didn't seem fresh. Sides are okay, hush puppies good, clam strips were also good. Just disappointed with the fish, which should be the reason we go. Cold and soggy from grubhub this time didn't help, but can't put that on them. read more

Wish I could give them 10 stars. I've been going here with my mom since a kid; and PROUD to say I am from the East Side.. Anyways, lol, now my wife and I frequently here often. Wether it's fresh seafood to chef yourself or pick up eats, this place is seriously the bomb. Nice staff, FRESH, FRESH, seafood and the biggest part is that time and time again they're constantly updating and upgrading the menu, THANKS GUYS..... Thanks for employing our community and making super good eats along the way!! Try everything guys!! read more

So happy to have discovered this place! The food is great and reminds me of my time in the South. I highly recommend others try it if they're looking for some true southern fare. The catfish sandwich is my favorite! read more

A really tasty meal was delivered to me. It was hot and fresh. There was also enuff for two. The shrimp were good and came on a bed of rice. The mac and cheese was ample and good but the greens were so yummy I could have eaten more. Cant wait to try them again. read more

I LOVE this place! HUGE PORTIONS of fresh food at a reasonable price. Their mac and cheese portion fed me for days! My fish fry, i had the haddock, was enormous and tasted really fresh. The New England Clam Chowder is outstanding. The corn bread melts in your mouth. The potato salad is uniquely mouth-watering. I recommend this place 100%. read more

Ordered the haddock fish with greens mac and cheese and shrimp spent over 35 dollars for that garbage. This establishment has hit rock bottom not what it used to be. Greens taste like they came out of the can , mac and cheese tasted like cardboard, coleslaw watery, my haddock did not look or taste like haddock and it was undercooked. The only thing that was somewhat ok was the shrimp. Had to throw the whole meal in the garbage where it belonged. Lesson learned never again. read more

Today I had a taste for some fish and I hadn't visited this place for years, I always felt like I smelled like a walking fish when I walked out. Anywho, I ordered online because it took me a while to figure out what I wanted (not knowing you save 10% by doing so). I ordered the fish (perch)and shrimp dinner. The food looks amazing and it was cooked perfectly, however it could use some seasoning. I know each person prefers diff seasoning but I believe this is straight fish and batter. The coleslaw and the hush puppies were GREAT!! I would go again if I needed a quick fish fix if it's not Friday. The ability to order online is a huge perk. read more

Literally the worst customer service I've ever experienced in my life. The lady who brought my food out was extremely rude, I'm not sure why she is even working with the public. I placed my order online and then immediately called to find out what time it would be done. She said check your email. The email I received said 6pm. I showed up at 6pm only to find that my $50 worth of food had been sitting for nearly 30 minutes before I arrived. I was frustrated already. While standing in front of her I opened the boxes and touched the items to feel how cold they were so I could decide whether or not I just wanted a refund. She said "well if you're going to touch everything then you're just going to take it". I will never return. read more

I ordered the frog legs with onion rings, the yellow pike (in case I didn't like the frog legs, as I have never had them before), and a side of a crab cake. My boyfriend ordered coleslaw, 2 cornbread muffins, the fish and shrimp combo and extra tartar sauce. It delivered pretty quickly, but the quality didn't really match my expectations for the price. My order cost roughly $30 and while there was a lot of food, only the crab cake was really edible. I think it's in the batter and the tartar sauce. Either they put some extra ingredient in it or both went bad/ I want to be charitable, so I think it's some extra ingredient, but either way it completely ruined the flavor of anything that was battered at all. The fish, the frog legs, and onion rings all had this flavor and I literally can't describe in any other way than "the flavor of old garbage smell." My boyfriend didn't really notice it, but for me it was awful, I had maybe 1 onion ring, one bite of a frog leg and one bite of fish with batter and one without and none of it was palatable. I will probably never order from here again. I've had better fried fish in a small town bar. read more

I would have left a 4.5 but it was either a 5 or a 4, and they were better than a 4. As with all their fish, it's tastes fresh from the sea, is battered perfectly, lightly, and their fresh and home made tartar sauce is scrum-dilly-isious. ;-) The fried shrimp pairs perfectly with the cocktail sauce. The downfall was that the fried oysters tasted a bit fishy which really surprised me as all of their fish is stupendous. Of course I will definitely order from Bailey Seafood again!! 2 thumbs up! read more

I like seafood, but only fresh seafood because my palate can definitely taste fishy nasty old seafood. This place has fresh seafood, for sure. I had the super haddock sandwich, which was only $5.49. This thing was so huge that I had to flip the sandwich over and pry it out of the container. It had a nice, meaty piece of fried haddock (not greasy!!!), coleslaw (which I usually don't like but it was good), tartar sauce and fries all between a bun. Who knew this would be good? But it was DAMN good. We also had the super combo haddock dinner, which had a huge nice piece of haddock, a good amount of fries, coleslaw, tartar sauce, hush puppies, 4 shrimp and 3 chicken fingers for $10.99. Wait, what? Since when was food that cheap? When was seafood that cheap? Everything was delicious! Well maybe except for the hushpuppies cause I don't really know what that is and didn't enjoy it too much. Anyway, that dinner had so much food that we couldn't finish it. It seems like they're pushing for more online orders than anything. 15% off first order online then 10% off for life if you order online. They also give you this super super cute menu that's in the form of a newspaper made with newspaper that has the history of Bailey Seafood and the menu inside. I think they're also super nice and efficient and surprisingly clean looking. :) read more

Honestly I ordered off of skip the dishes ! This is the worst catfish i have ever had. It has no seasoning. It tastes like they just caught it and dropped it in old batter. Maybe frying isn't their specialty? I'll try baked next time but their fried fish is trash. Literally a waste of money. The fries were nasty ass well and the shrimp. #BaileyDontKnowWhatSeasoningIs read more

So I had the fish special sandwich yesterday and now it's all I can do to keep from thinking of different ways to get it - all the different fish options, baked, or Cajun seasoning. Seriously it may become an addiction. The sandwich is sublime. The fish is fried fresh, fast, and to perfection. It goes on a large soft bun with coleslaw, tartar sauce and French fries (yes, fries). Cheese is an option, which I didn't choose in this occasion. It was a very filling meal. Totally satisfying, and at $7 and change, a bargain. There's a fresh fish section as well. You can order ahead, which is what most people do because there's no table service and one long bench for waiting. And maybe because this section of Bailey intimidates people, popping in and out appeals to a lot of folks. Ask for extra napkins, by the way, it's a hot fun delicious mess read more

Bailey seafood Fish is amazing. Great atmosphere in there also. Very tasty. Customer service is excellent.

I was going to do 4-stars because the red snapper fillet seemed small, but then I was like.. "oh hell, they cooked it for me". =-) I ordered the **RED SNAPPER**. The first time I've tried red snapper, reminded me of turkey. I also ordered soft shell crab, which I made into a sandwich on my own at home. It was super super delicious. It is convenient to order online, and when I arrived to pick up, the girl at the counter was super sweet and smiley. The boy who gave me the food could smile some though, hard day I suppose. The bulletproof bank-type glass by the registers is a little scary. It is in don't-walk-around-at-night area. They offer a wide variety of fish, that are not only fried, but can be baked, or take it to go so you can cook the food. The items (such as the fried Okra, yum!!) are breaded on site from my understanding. I will definitely be back to try more things. read more

I will never use the service again, Ordered seafood from a seafood place and a steak sandwich for my son and the only thing that showed up was the steak sandwich in the tartar sauce I had to drive to the location to get my food Why would I pay you guys nine dollars delivery fee plus the convenience fee and everything else to not receive the food that I ordered because the driver was in a hurry and forgot it read more

Let me premise my review with the fact that I grew up in Seattle catching my own clams, mussels, dungeness crab, fish, squid, etc. which has left me a constant craving for seafood. Since moving to Buffalo 7+ years ago I have been on a diligent search for good seafood restaurants. Coming across an article on yahoo and cross referencing reviews on yelp I decided to give Bailey Seafood a try. After reading reviews about wait time I ordered online (got my 15% off first order), I picked up about 30 minutes later. I walked in and it was clean, but the counters were really high and I was just a bit disoriented. But then I saw signs and I walked over to the "order" area since there were folks there and was able to pick up my order and pay with credit. For a little less then $7.50, I got a huge yummy super sandwich with the works (fries, coleslaw and tarter sauce), and a 16 oz clam chowder! I was full after eating the sammy, but had to try to the clam chowder. It was super thick (i put the plastic spoon in the middle and it stayed upright) and clammy with tons of potato... the only thing I wished it had was some celery and bacon. Would I go back? YES! I can't wait to try the soft shelled crab, hand breaded okra, and the homemade sweet potato pie! I urge you to get out of the suburbs (realizing that you will need to dismiss the voice in your head that is filled with all the crazy crap your parents told you about the city) and get some great fried seafood for a price that is worth the drive. read more

Ordered the chicken strips. Not too bad but way too much batter. Had to keep removing it to get to the chicken. But not bad of a flavor.

EXCELLENT fried haddock sammy! The ease of use of ordering online from here is REALLY great. You check off exactly what you want, confirm your order and pick up time, and they send you a confirmation email. EASY. I wish all take-out joints had this method in place. I ordered the fried haddock super sandwich combo with New England Clam Chowder ($7.99!) and a giant chocolate chip cookie ($1.49) on the side... Let's deconstruct, shall we? The sandwich: No wonder it has really great reviews on here! First off, it's served on a Costanzo's roll- which in my opinion are the BEST rolls around. And the fact that they're locally made is that much better. You can't get these rolls anywhere else in the country, so they are solid GOLD! The fish was dynamite! A nicely portioned piece of haddock, breaded and fried. Now, I usually prefer beer-battered and like any beer-battered fish a lot more than breaded, but for being breaded, that fish was excellent! I ordered just ketchup and tartar on the side. Usually their super sammy comes with coleslaw and fries on it- I didn't want either. BUT- they put fries on my sammich. Shoot! Luckily they're easy to pick off. Not like everything being slathered with mayo when you said no mayo and hate mayo (I don't understand mayo haters- or Miracle Whip haters- I love both!). Anywho, the combo of the crunchy coated, firm fish and soft, chewy Costanzo's roll was beautiful. I slathered mine in ketchup and tartar (little packets, not homemade- boo) because that's how I roll. The chowder: Nothing special in my book and tasted burnt... Not sure if this is typical or not, but me no likey. I mean, it wasn't terrible, but it didn't taste much different from Campbell's Clam Chowder in a can. Meh. Huge portion though, but not worth the extra calories to me. Didn't even finish half of it. Wouldn't order it again. If you want some homemade chowder that'll knock your socks off, Zuppa is where it's at! Anywho... The cookie: ... what cookie??!?!?!?! They forgot to put my cookie in the bag... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I should have checked before I left! Wahhhhhhhhhhhhh! I'm gonna save my receipt and hopefully I can get the cookie the next time I visit. And there will be a next time because this isn't far from work and I wanna try the soft shell crabs AND I saw some AMAZING looking 15 oz. Brazilian lobster tails in the case that looked meaty and huge and delicious for $15.99/tail. SAY WHAT?! Overall a good visit. Will update as I indulge further in their offerings. YUM! read more

Great place for seafood takeout! I'm trying to eat healthy, and a lot of the items are fried, so if you like fried fish/seafood, they do it right. If you're trying to avoid fried and are looking for baked seafood, it's a much smaller selection, it's decent, but not my favorite. I really like the bisque, and the shrimp boil. Give this place a try, they even have delivery through grub hub. read more

The place will remind you about a busy Indian fish market. They have one fresh fish section and they have variety of fresh fishes which was a surprise to us. On the other hand they have food section where you can order different types of fish fries, sandwiches, greens and a lot of other foods. The place was so full of people which shows that they have a great reputation. read more

One of the best fish sandwiches I've had in my life. I definitely recommend the Super Fish Sandwich with everything on it. The Haddock tasted so fresh like it had just been battered and deep fried to a nice golden crisp while keeping the insides moist and flaky. It's then piled high with crispy, golden fries and a cool, zesty slaw which helps balance out the greasy aspects of the sandmich. Lastly, it's smothered between two toasted buns spread with a creamy tartar sauce- drooling as I type. Now, it is crazy messy to eat so be prepared with napkins. Also, it's not a sit-down sort of eatery so make sure you have somewhere close by in mind to sit and enjoy your meal, otherwise I could imagine it getting cold and soggy the longer you wait. They also sell fresh fish here and I did call them once asking if they sold lobster to which the chick said no and abruptly hung up on me as I was in the middle of asking her if they sold clams. Thank goodness for online ordering- clearly their customer service is lacking. read more

Ok. So if you've searched multiple buffalo food spots you might notice my face/name as i am currently on my buffalo food tour. And I must say I was beyond disappointed with this stop. I originally we were suppose to go to pine hill but bc of their reputation with long waits we opted for Bailey's. We ordered online which was cool bc we got 10% off. Unfortunately when we got there 30 minutes later it still wasn't ready. Fast forward to the food intake I was less than underwhelmed...more than underwhelmed? I had two bites and I was done. I ordered the fish & shrimp. I didn't like any of it. I don't know if any of it is fresh, honestly it just wasn't good. I didn't even like the fries. Sigh read more

Now listen here, I've been going to this Fish Market since I was 6 years old. Do you hear me? Six? At the ripe age of...six...my dad wold send me down the street to pick up fish dinners for my family. I love that the place still looks the same. I love that their prices have remained SUPER reasonable. But most of all, I love that walking into this place reminds me of "home". Way to be, Bailey Seafood. Way. To. Be. read more

Food was delicious. Very generous portion. The wait was very long though and the driver claimed that he was tasked with delivering multiple orders at once. But the wait was worth it. Highly recommend. read more

The food was cold, hard and BAD!!!!! I won't be ordering from them anymore this century!!!! There are 10,000 better restaurants. Don't believe me? Waste your money and try the place. YOUR FUNERAl!!! read more

Diamond in the Rough....literally! The neighborhood isn't fantastic but the food in this place is! Ordered ahead to have their super fish sandwich- fried haddock on a soft bun with cole slaw and french fries! I would have never imagined this would taste good but I was pleasantly surprised. Try it before you try any thing else here! read more

I've now visited Bailey Seafood a few times and have come away pretty happy each time. One of the best things about the place is simply the amazing range of seafood available fresh or cooked. How many other places are there where you can order half a dozen different types of fried fish instead of simply, say, haddock or something? The service is always efficient, and even if you have to end up waiting a little bit for food (which is often due simply to popularity!), it's definitely worth it. The combo meals are colossal - it's easy to simply pick one with a decent variety and then share with family/friends. Everything comes out hot and fresh. read more

the best thing about this place is you get to make your own order!!! i had the fish s/w with coleslaw and tartar sauce! It was soooooo amazing!!! It looked a bit small for a 5$ s/w and i was a teeny bit disappointed with the size... but just after eating a few bites I started to feel full!!! Yep, the s/w size is just perfect! The food is awesome here! I love it! Definitely worth going again!!!!! read more

I ordered their shrimp and chicken skillet. Like with all their food, the concept is good and it looks good, but it Lacks FLAVOR! The corn on the cob was mushy, no crunch whatsoever and no flavor at all. Come on, we're talking about "Corn on the Cob". If they're going to have greens on the menu, learn how to cook them. If you're going to have Soul Food, have someone cook it that knows how to season and cook it. Same with your Cajun food. Example, Po Boys and BBQ. They give you a nice size portion, but I have to add seasoning to everything I get here, even the fish and French Fries! read more
