Absolutely CRAVING King Crab and they're baaaackkkkk!!!! I absolutely love the outstanding tender king card, the great service from the red head behind the glass, and the neat store front read more

My ocean perch was steamed to perfection but the potatoes weren't scrubbed to remove dirt and rotten spots. As others mentioned the broccoli was a but overdone. As of today (5/24/25) the menu items are $5 more per item. There is no new menu you have to ask the cashier. read more

It was honestly just ok I guess could have honestly been better the girl in the front was really nice I loved her personality. The food was just average or below average I'll say. read more

OMGoodness!! We've passed this station thousand of times, never knew this was there! My homemaker told us about it one day and I'm like where is that?

Not an eat in diner, menus on the walls, you can park outside and wait for the order! We've been twice since then and they still have not disappointed!!! Give it a try..... Enjoy! read more

I am soooo done. First things first, the quoted wait time is a complete lie (quoted 10 minutes, actual wait time 40 minutes). Ok let's move past that, prices have sky rocketed (normal almost everywhere), but the portion sizes have decreased by more than half. Almost $35 for 2 1lb tilapia dinners and just look at the portion size!!! ( I've been a customer over 5 years so I know the difference. Their explanation is that it's the same amount of food in a smaller container. Well I'm here to say that that's a complete lie. To add insult to injury on any given day only 1 half filled butter is included. In closing, less than half the original portion and almost double the price... yeah I'm done. read more

Nom nom nom!!! read more

Price issue: 1/2lb shimp is $7.99 but 1lb is $18.95. That's a problem bc two 1/2 lb would be $15.99 which is eviqualent to 1lb. Quality issue: The shrimp were room temperature and I was present for pick up once they were ready, which was exactly 10 mins as guarantee. The actual shrimp were soggy soft and did not taste fresh. 2 star service, cashier didn't greet me nor give me a reciept or thank me for business. Just go down the street to Seafood Junction. read more

Over the last few years the seafood platter lane exploded in Chicago. I've been to a few places but this by far is my favorite to date!!! Over the last month or so, I think myself and my mate have been here for dinner like 5 times(....ooops!) He's not a big seafood eater and VERY hard to please. I'm not fond of the customer service or the parking lot, however neither of those cons have stopped us for coming back for mooooore. I always get the house seasoning however I have my eyes on lemon pepper or cajun seasoning for the next go around! I always order the king crab legs, I wish they gave you more :( We've tried the salmon that was pretty good, but most people always over cook salmon so whatever.lol. Next on my list of seafood to try is the lobster tail. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because the last time I went it had a suuuuuper faint seafood smell which we all know isn't good if it's strong but we didn't get sick and it wasn't putrid, so we aren't going to stop coming. In addition to the customer service ALWAYS falling flat. Pleeeeease try the peanut butter cookies if they have them. They are so GOT damn good! Enjoy! This spot is worth a try and may become your favorite too :) read more

The first 2 times I had ordered from here my food was great. My usual order is 2 #14 and #25. There aren't too many places like this on the southside. The cajun and jerk seasonings are great. The last time I came here was on a Sunday after church. I ordered my usual. My shrimp in all but one order were mushy. I don't even know why. It was so disgusting. I live 15 minutes away and didn't want to take the journey back. FYI: They accept LINK but charge $1 to cook your food. NOT a bad deal for a healthier option. read more

Clean and Friendly place. The young Lady who took my order was very Friendly and took her time with me Asking Questions because it was my first time there. I got the #16 I think it had 1lb of Crab,half lb od Shrimps came with corn ,Broccoli and red potatoes. With Main sauce on the side there's lemon, melted butter, Cocktail sauce( nice & Spicy) love it. Will be back to try the other Sauce they put on the Seafood. Parking was easy from parking lot or street. Enough for 2 to3 people!! read more

Fisherman's Island - Large shrimps and fresh - Seafood Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Very nice alternative to your typical fried fish and shrimp. My personal favorite are the shrimp. I have only tried the Cajun seasoning. Hard to deviate from anything that works. I always request extra seasoning. The crab legs are good as well as the talapia. I haven't tried the catfish yet, but I plan to. I didn't love the salmon. It was bland and fishy tasting. I look forward to trying the catfish. Carry out only establishment. Service has been exceptional each time I've visited. I suggest calling ahead. read more

Food was very old and not season. And all they could say was Bing it back and I will add more seasons. They should have done that when they cook the food. Poor service read more

I'm giving this place ONE STAR because of the HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! If this place wants so survive please fire the whole staff. I thought about calling the restaurant to speak to a manager then I thought to myself, why waste my time just go to Yelp. I spent $90 for a seafood tray. My food was terrible, I also asked for extra butter that I DID NOT receive.. I asked the girl who was taking orders for my butter she totally ignored me. What a total waste. Whoever owns this place needs to be aware of this issue. PS: I won't be back. read more

Fisherman's Island never disappoints. They satisfy all my seafood cravings from crab legs , shrimp, lobster they have me covered and I get them with my fave house seasoning steamed with my favorite season with corn , potatoes, broccoli. The staff here is pretty friendly here as well . read more

I eat at the one on 87th quite often. I love that I can quickly get some seasoned seafood. I love lobster tails, crab legs and shrimp. The potatoes, corn and broccoli is just an added bonus. The butter puts the icing on the cake. Yummy!!! read more

Soooo. Worst customer service ever. The cashier female cashier treats the customers as if they aren't assisting in keeping the business open. Then her attitude should be better especially because most times the food is half done of overly cooked. Limp broccoli and gummy shrimp, the worst. I also trashed the potatoes which never have taste. If you ever visit you will watch every customer check there pan in fear of a disaster. And if a disaster is discovered be prepared to deal with attitude form either the cashier or the person distributing the orders. I refuse to spend my money there. read more

I enjoyed the food from Fisherman's Island. With no traffic I can make it here in about 20 minutes & the food came out extremely quickly. There's a adjacent parking lot on the north & westside of the restaurant. Let me start off by saying the veggies were terrible. They tasted stale. That's where the negatives end. The food is cooked to perfection. This was the first seafood boil type place that gave me a cocktail sauce & it was fantastic. The medium lobster tail was on the smaller side but accompanied with the potatoes & peel & eat shrimp and corn you'll have plenty of food. This establishment was slightly cheaper than similar places but the food was still good. I opted for Cajun as well as Lemon pepper seasoning which paired well together. I'll definitely return soon & will try the jerk seasoning because I didn't realize it was an option until it was too late. After the closing of the Garfield Park location of Seafood Junction I'm dubbing this my new "seafood boil to go" spot read more

Fisherman's Island - 1/2 pound of shrimp & medium lobster tail with lemon pepper & Cajun seasoning - Seafood Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

The cocktail sauce they're continuing to serve is spoiled. The ghetto cashier told me I'm the only one that complained... so I guess it doesn't matter? I've complained twice on two different occasions. They also gave me reheated crab legs. I will not return. Do better read more

One of the cons of residing on the south-side of Chicago is the food. Every restaurant consist of fried foods. I'm a HUGE seafood lover never patronized Sea Food Junction etc no particular reason but I decided to try Fisherman's Island one day. THUMBS UP!!! My food was fresh, large portions, and seasoned perfect! read more

Fisherman's Island - Seafood Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Not sure who the owner is, but I am sure he or she is laughing all the way to the bank..the customer service is HORRIFIC!! For the amount of money seafood cost you would think the establishment would hire or train staff on etiquette and quality control...the entry way is dirty..the cashier is ghetto and rude. They charge $4 for a salty hotdog in which they call a sausage. The cooks overcook the items so they are mushy, my potato had mold on it..tried to reach a manager, but supposedly he/she is never there. Consumers deserve better. I wouldn't take my dog here...horrible place..reminds me of a gas station that serves seafood. Pitiful....and grossly overpriced..but the Staff that work there are by far the worst I've seen in a long time... never returning...spend your money elsewhere...surprised they are still in business..if they didn't take EBT they probably wouldn't be........I paid cash and want my hard earn $140 back read more

My favorite seafood place right now. This place has 10x the flavor of seafood junction. I go hear so often during the week, that I sometimes think that they sprinkle an addictive special ingredient on your food. I get a #15 with a mixture of the Cajun and house seasonings. The corn is sweet and the broccoli is cooked tender. Not a fan of potatoes. My food is always fresh and delicious. I want to try lemon pepper and Cajun seasonings mixed at some point. I would recommend this to anyone who loves crab and lobster tails. I have not tried the other items. read more

Fisherman's Island - #22 1/2lb of shrimp, 1/2lb of perch . You can get it with your choice of fish. Broccoli, corn and potatoes - Seafood Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Don't get me wrong. The food was good. However, if you're trying to buy for more than yourself. DO NOT GO HERE. I received 3 clusters in my first visit, so i ordered an extra cluster the second time, since I was bringing my friend for the first time. Imagine our disappointment when I still had 3 clusters AND spend almost $15 more than the first time. Nowhere to sit and the second batch smelled like week old fish. Spend your money at the Angry Crab. read more

Wow. Passed by there many times, looked up on Yelp and decided to try it. Wonderful choice, especially for shrimp that IS NOT FRIED. Clever seasonings and red potatoes, broccoli and corn cob with every dinner. Went on Friday night around 8pm and cars were parked all around the place. Good sign, right? read more

I've heard great things about the ins and I tried it and I will be back lovely place great food friendly people.

Decent price but I ordered ahead of time and was even late by 15 mins picking it up and they still were not ready with my order. I had to wait an additional 30 mins for my order. It was my first time ordering and they didn't offer me the flavor options or anything. I was only aware of how customizable my meal was once I got to the "restaurant" and had to wait in a confusing line with a bunch of people who were ordering their food, figuring out where their orders were and which line to stand in. It didn't help that the cashiers were so lighthearted and nonchalant about the lack of order that was going on. Every time I went to ask how long before my order would be ready they'd say "it's almost ready" and then nothing until I'd ask again. My friend asked me what was taking so long to visit them and once I said where I was they were no surprised about why I was running so damn late. I went through all that and the portion size wasn't even as impressive as I was lead to believe. Oh and they don't accept credit cards as payment -_- never going again. It tasted decent though. read more

I have to say thank you, for showing up to work during this pandemic. Now let me tell you about how bad this place is running, It is hard right now, but if you are making your job harder for you im sorry I don't fill bad for you. I called in my order only to have to wait over 80 mins , mind you I called from home 25 min before I got their, so now I get their the line around the building, at this time 15 has passed in the line, now I call from the line, she tell me "your food been ready", I say so can i walk in a get it, she tell me "you have to wait in line", I told her "that is where I'm calling from and that I have been their 15 plus mins". She hung up. I wait another 30 min or so, the places was packed. I will never go back... read more

Bad place not good service hate it do not go here not good food and no refunds and no parking

It was my first time there and they were closing soon after. The staff wasn't that helpful. But I ended up with the crab legs and shrimp platter with extra seasoning and it was good! I will give them another try. read more

Good, not great but if you love seafood go for it. A nice option for dinner (though a bit pricey) if you don't want to cook and have a taste for crab legs. I'd recommend calling in your order. read more

For a small place it's large taste good seafood restaurant the shrimp and tilapia was awesome and nice size crab legs good job you guys

The food there is good, but the black lady taking the order is so damn rude, I REFUSE to spend my money there anymore. My family was eating there maybe once a week, but once the short light skinned lady with the fake eyebrows taking orders, it was over for me. She was very rude months back, I vowed not to come back. Today, Feb 19, my wife talked me into going back. The lady was still rude. I'm not going to spend money and be disrepected. Will not be coming back, two times is enough for the rudeness. read more

Basic seafood spot crab legs,lobster,shrimp,crawfish things like that. The service is pretty good food is usually ready in 15 min so it is best to call ahead. If you're in rush or something. Good seasoning and prices are reasonable. On the plus side they do accept link. read more
