This is an extremely casual (read shabby) place, but the food is outstanding. We went at lunchtime after reading about Maria's here on Tripadvisor. Mom Maria does the cooking, while son Lamar waits tables. All you can eat fish fry for $14.99, but we had the 3 piece lunch for $10.99. (American farmed swai) It was more than we could... More

We used to love to eat here on vacation. Nice, fresh seafood, well prepared. Last year it was pretty bad (ordered the seafood platter, and when it arrived without oysters, we were THEN told, "oh, we're out of oysters"). We figured it was just an off night, so we went back this year. This time we knew to ask about... More

This place is not fancy, service not the best,and is hard to find. It is BYOB. If you want excellent smoked fish, one of the best fish fry's you have ever had, and other fresh seafood give it a chance. You will be happy you did.

Drove by the "All you can Eat Fish Fry" sign numerous times. Checked reviews & gave it a try today - EXCELLENT FOOD! Lamar greeted us immediately, bringing us a sample of the smoked fish spread on crackers. YUM! He also allowed me to sample the Mango Sweet Tea - I ordered it. We both ordered the Fish & Shrimp...

I've been driving by the place for years and even stopped a couple of times but either couldn't figure out where to park for it or could not figure out how you got into the place. Well! Friday night I decided that I was going to give it another try. After finally deciding to park next to the sign but... More

They need a new cook and a exterminator! Seriously,after a failled attempt on a 18.00 meal,wich was far from fresh. They served me a fillett with ants crawling on it as a bad attempt to rectifie the first. The first and only meal I had ordered.This place realy needs an inspection at BEST.And there food wich is why we stopped... More

food was awesome. I have stopped by twice before and never could catch them "ready" for customers for one reason of the other but today finally got them "ready" for customers and I tell you it was well worth the weight. You have to be really looking for this one it is on the west side of san carlos blvd,... More

I read about this place from contributors on trip advisor. They were sooo right! The fish is very light and flavorful. Great cole slaw, i don't even like coleslaw! Worth a visit. The shrimp were huge ans tasty. Worth a visit.
