    I'm never disappointed when I visit Ms. Virginia and her friendly staff ar Forsyth Seafood Market…read moreand Cafe. Since I moved to Greensboro, I take every opportunity I can to stop in while visiting Winston-Salem to place an order just before hitting the road back home. On this day, the cafe was busier than I had ever seen it. There was a conference happening at Wake Forest University, and many of the attendees had selected Forsyth Seafood as their dinner (without calling ahead, I assume). The self-seating cafe is large and adorned with several tables and chairs, so it was well-equipped to accommodate the large group, plus other guests that was there to eat. In stellar fashion, the kitchen staff was taking and getting orders out to the cafe and their usual takeout patrons quickly. I ordered a 5-piece Catfish, an order of hushpuppies, and a small coleslaw via their website, and had less than 10 min. wait for my order, after they recooked my order (it had mistakenly been held too long when they didn't realize I was in the parking lot, due to the large group, not a normal occurrence). One tip that Ms. Virginia (the owner) gave me for longer road trips (over 40 mins.) was to, instead of ordering a pickup online, order at the counter, and then the fish will be fried and hot (instead of fried and sitting waiting on me to pick it up), which makes it even fresher by the time I get home. As usual, I arrived in Greensboro with 3.5 pieces of fish and 1/2 an order of hush puppies because I can never resist putting my fingers in the box and eating some (despite burning my fingers lol). My entire order was delicious, and I had enough for a second meal the next day. As a successful, family-owned and operated business, Forsyth Seafood Market & Cafe has been feeding generations of families delicious food for years. In addition, it has been a willing contributor in the Winston-Salem, NC, community for years. However, what speaks the loudest to me is its commitment to remaining in the community and maintaining a quality product and service. Forsyth Seafood Market & Cafe is definitely Kiesha Speech-approved. I recommend trying the whiting filets or the catfish filets, with some hushpuppies (or white bread, if that's your preference) and coleslaw. Don't forget the hometown original: Texas Pete hot sauce! ;)

    My husband would give this place 4 stars; however, I feel a little differently. One thing I really…read moreliked is that you can select your seafood fresh before placing your order. It's definitely a local favorite. The restaurant appeared clean and sanitized, though the lobby could use some improvement to create a better dine-in experience. Your wait time depends on how busy they are, so I recommend calling ahead, especially during peak hours. The pricing is reasonable, and there are plenty of combo options to choose from. As for our order, the sides were hit or miss. I wouldn't recommend the gumbo, but the greens and sweet potato were good. We chose fried options, but non-fried selections are available as well.

Not to mention their seafood and prices are competitive and even better quality than the grocery stores in the area. When I was in they had fresh scallops, so fresh in fact they gave me a sample right then and there.... It was perfect!! I can't wait to swing by the next time we need fresh seafood.

    Hot damn! These folks take the hassle out of getting your hand on fresh, East Coast sea food. On…read moreThursday mornings the folks that run this business head to the docks around the Topsail Island/Sneads Ferry area to select fresh, local seafood - shrimp, crabs, and a variety of fish. They have added items from other locations once a quality supplier was found - like lobster from Maine, oysters from Virginia, puffer fish from Virginia also. The truck heads back inland, and they sell their fare staring Friday at noon, and will be selling on Saturday, and even Sunday, if supplies last. You can go to their excellent website, register, signup for their weekly newsletter, and place your orders, and specify a pickup time and location - works seamlessly. Once you sign up for the newsletter, you will receive info on Thursday about what items are available, and you can make your selections. The weekly items vary depending on availability and seasonality, but frequently available items include: several choices of shrimp, clams, crab, oysters, scallops, Black Drum, Chilean Sea Bass, Cobia Steaks (you really need to try these bad boys), Cod, Flounder, Grouper, Halibut, Red Snapper, Swordfish, Triggerfish (see Cobia Steaks), and Tuna! And there are always more choices. These folks bring you what seafood should be about - it is local, if at all possible; it is never frozen, if at all possible; and they tell you were it came from and in what condition. If you want seafood cheap, don't come here, you'll not be a happy camper. If you want fresh tasting, first quality seafood to prepare for you and your family, come here, you'll all be happy campers. Suggestion (notice I didn't say Pro Tip, that so sucks), if you've never had Puffer Fish, get some - the fish is incredibly ugly and I threw them back in for years, but these are awesome just lightly floured and fried - you could close your eyes and have trouble telling whether you are eating frogs legs, chicken tenders, or crayfish.
