Went in to purchase a caviar flight and walked out with nothing as this place isn't well kept at all. Everything looked stale. The biggest turn off was after about 8 mins in store not a single staff offered a hello or any assistance. Appears to have variety but not hygienic for a seafood spot. Don't think will give another try.

Smoked salmon sandwich
Anthony P.

Can see why this place has the reputation it does. It's a classic no frills jewish deli serving some really high quality smoked salmon. I got a bagel sandwich with smoked salmon and cream cheese and enjoyed it. I will say that the bagel isn't necessarily the best in the city, and I do prefer other places' overall and their smoked salmon sandwiches, but the quality of the salmon is undeniable. Cream cheese was just fine overall. This is more of a quality neighborhood spot than it is a destination spot, imo. Although if I did return I would probably craft a more complex sandwich, knowing that I'd be paying for it too though. If you're in the UES and want to check out the smoked salmon scene, this place is a must visit. It's a small space and service was quick.

A line to get in.

Long line before holiday, food looked good but didn't wait. Take out only. Small deli atmosphere.

Thinly sliced Scottish Smoked Salmon
Pat F.

Waiting to cross E. 76th St. and 3rd Ave. I happened to look behind me to see a bright store sign - SABEL'S. The exterior looked new and inviting and as I could do with something quick to eat decided to check them out. Walked in to a clean space, with a refrigerated section displaying an array of cream cheese spreads, salads and smoked fish. As well as eager to assist workers behind the counter. What really caught my eye was one worker in particular expertly carving almost paper thin slices of Smoked Salmon. This had me sold. I asked for a 1/4lb of Scottish Smoked Salmon, plain, no Cream Cheese or Bagel. I decided to stand at a table. Admired the beautiful packaging before opening, then ate each unctuous slice of Salmon. I must say this was THE best Smoked Salmon I've had in some time. To me it had that Japanese Tuna Otoro consistency. At $61.98/lb, it was well worth it. P.S. While exiting and taking a pic of the store front, I noticed their claim of WORLD'S BEST SMOKED SALMON. Until I stumble upon someplace better, they indeed own that brag.

Belly Lox! iykyk
Antoine L.

Simply put, Sable's in New Yorks best appetizing store. Their Master fishcutters are brothers from Hong Kong recruited many years ago from Zabars. Their belly lox (hard to find these days) is just perfect, beautiful and buttery, never too salty. They were among the first and best purveyors of Scottish and specialty salmons like Pastrami cured. Nobody elses compares and it is beautifully cut. Their baked salmon and whitefish salads, always fresh smoky and delicious. Bagels fresh baked daily and sourced from the best bakeries. Additionally do not sleep on their chopped liver and chicken salad! New York's finest. They have been catering our Medical office Pharma lunches for 25 years. Never late. Always delivered fresh. Support the real New York. Support a true Appetizing Store. Order from Sable's!

Smoked salmon with cream cheese, tomato and onion!!   :)
Donald K.

The staff greets you once you walk in. They have a great variety of bagels and sandwiches to choose from. I had the smoked salmon with cream cheese on wheat bagel and it was very delicious and fresh. The staff also makes sure that you are very satisfied with your meal which I was. It was a great way to begin the weekend. If you are in the area, then I highly recommend Sable's Smoked Fish!! :)

Sable's smells like fish but for a Sunday morning coffee I sat down and enjoyed a small cup for $2! Service was quick and the employees are all very pleasant to deal with. I've had their food and there's definitely some items I need to try. Now that I know they open early on Sunday I'll return. They have outdoor seating too. I'm recommending! Especially for fish lovers!

Lox with Egg Over-Easy Sandwich
Michelle Y.

Pretty decent bagels but not a lot of options, esp for spreads-- as the name suggest they are mostly known for their lox & other smoked fish! We got to sample their lobster salad(?) which was pretty good. I think the lox could be too "fishy" for some people. The inside reminds me more of a deli but there's a couple of tables inside and out for those who want to sit and eat.

Service was a bit rough and hectic on a Sunday afternoon. Bit of a wait as well. We ordered the turkey and egg on a whole wheat bagel and it was delicious. Fresh ingredients and the bagels were perfectly soft on the inside. Even tried the tuna which was amazing. Sandwiches come with a free water/soda/coffee. Seating also available inside.

Scottish Salmon tomato onion caper sesame bagel
Stacy T.

Came on a very cold rainy day. The salmon was amazing - springy and happy, definitely 5 stars. The whole combo was ok. The bagel was not as fresh and didn't have that classic chew. Onion was very thickly cut. They also charged me double for tomato, probably by accident but I didn't realize till much later. Overall I would just buy the salmon and then get a bagel separately .

Very disappointed. Instead of nice slices of Nova on my bagel, I was given a few left over scraps. Not cheap either!

Do they have salmon wings?

Hi Harold, yes we have salmon wings. We have both smoked & baked salmon wings at our store.

Do you still carry the smoked salmon ends and smoked salmon(wings)? What are they priced these days?

I am a seafood fanatic and I loved this place. I have tried several Greek and Egyptian style…read moreseafood restaurants in the area of the same concept. Astoria Seafood is definitely the favorite! The staff are so welcoming and warm it's like being served by friends and family. The seafood options here seem bigger than other places, though they didnt have my favorite octopus on this day. There's also a huge variety of sides to pick from. The only con I can possibly name is that we both smelled so strongly like fried calamari after dining here that I could only smell calamari on our clothes at our new year's party several hours later! Maybe poor ventilation or just a very busy day. Cannot wait to come back to Astoria Seafood. Very casual dining experience - a must for seafood lovers no frills and great value.

I came in on a Friday noon and it had a decent crowd, but I didn't have to wait in line and easily…read morefound a seat for 1. You can order hot, readymade foods and/or grab a plastic bag and pick your seafood at the raw bar (an array of whole fish, fish fillets, squid, octopus, crab legs, squid, shrimp, lobster tails etc.). I picked out 4 squids and 6 scallops that ran me $21. They allow you to choose how the seafood will be cooked-- I fried my calamari and grilled my scallops. The fried calamari was the best calamari I've had. It was meaty inside and tender, with not too much breading, paired with yummy tartar sauce. Weirdly, when the scallops were served to me, there was 1-2 missing. Um ok? It was bathed in olive oil and was scrumptious. Overall, the seafood was super fresh and tasted amazing. I have to come back to try grilled octopus and whole fish! Also, the server lady was nice knowing it was my first time there, but as I was leaving the joint, she solicited me for tip, telling me that "tip was not included in the price paid". Weirded out, I gave her a $5 bill, and looked up the reviews of this place to find that sometimes the servers will approach you for tip and have even been known to chase you down the block if you leave without tipping. Super weird, but whatever, they work hard I guess. I'd come back... for now.

What a great seafood restaurant! Greenpoint Fish & Lobster has a fresh seafood counter to purchase…read moreitems as well as a full restaurant. Be sure to make a reservation, as this spot is popular, especially on a nice weekend. We recently had a weekend brunch at one of the tables outside. Everything on the menu sounded good, but we decided on a couple of their specials. Started with the razor clams, which were cooked perfectly and topped with fresh herbs. We also had the fried soft shell crab sandwich with the side of Caesar salad. The sandwich was well balanced with the crunchy crab and herby aioli. The Caesar was light and refreshing. The fish and chips came with two fried filets of white fish and a basket of classic fries. The fish was lightly battered and flakey. The house made tartar sauce was a good complement to it. One of my top meals this year so far! Perfect summer meal!
