Island Fish
Here at Island Fish, we serve seafood with pasta, vegetables and rice dishes, Portuguese bread, tasty soups, personal seafood pastry pies, red and white wines. We are located in the central and mid-point of Long Island, NY in Farmingville. This comes most convenient whether you are heading out east into the Hamptons or heading back west towards New York City.

Island Fish is a "must drop by" seafood place to pick up what you need, want or for a tasty bite to eat and stay awhile! You'll find nothing, but local fresh seafood brought in daily fished by Long Island's own local fisherman.
Services
Back in 1997 father and son, Stewart and Jordan Brill, came up with a great idea to sell frozen seafood out of a van in coolers to the public on street corners throughout the 5 boroughs of New York City. We would buy from directly from importers so we could afford to give wholesale prices to the public.

Purchased 3lbs of fresh salmon, lobster bisque and a few other already prepared items. Salmon cooked perfectly and was so delicious. It’s a small place but they have so much available! Will definitely be returning for my seafood needs

Basically amazing. Family run business. Super knowledgeable about sourcing seafood and its specific history. Ask about the red shrimp for instance. They taste like mini lobsters! The fresh flounder/fluke fillets were the best I’ve had in years when not catching them myself.

This little gem makes great burgers & fries. It is easier to get a table during the week, they are all outside, on weekends it is packed!

The best place to get seafood on the island!!! Never steer you wrong... the recommendation are " off da hook" . They will ask what you need the seafood for and then ask you if you would like suggestions of how to prepare it. They will give you samples if you are not sure about anything. It's a local homie feel. The prices are great!!

This place has the best fresh raw and cooked seafood in the area. Great prices, Great customer service, awesome selection, clean place and great location. Not hard to miss on the road. Love this place. Come here atleast every other month to get my seafood fix. Have been open lately with all the new bull going on. As you can see I got snow crab legs and they are surprisingly huge. Better then going to BJs or Sam's. Not that they not good but these are better. See you guys soon. Its almost about that time. Stay safe and wear your mask when going in.

Never again will EVER buy ANYTHING FROM THIS PLACE SMFH my family and I were soo disappointed with everything we got I spent $46 and the pasta Had no taste the baked clams were overcooked and cold and the lobste you can tell was old and overly recooked and definitely was in the freezer for months ‍ The only thing that was good was the guy that I spoke to but he definitely talked a good game cause he told me how my food was going to be cooked and made me really excited about eating what I ordered but it WAS THE WORST I EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. We tried to keep the leftovers of the linguine and clam

Ok so...it was truly 4.5 stars.

I stopped here late on a Sunday and was greeted by the friendliest guy at the counter. I ordered to go and he had me sample so much since it was my first time. ;-)

So I tried the shrimp and dill salad...this was awesome. I would love this with some tortilla chips. Would be awesome at a party....

I thend tried the lobster bisque. This I will be back for. This was soooo nummy. Reminds my of bisque from the low country of SC. Nom nom nom.

I ordered a crab cake and a fish cake, fish tacos and a fried platter. So....I am always totally honest. The cakes were really

This place deserves all the business in the world. Epitome of friendly local establishment. I always feel so appreciated and I am obsessed with their crab cakes. Also their giant shark is hilarious. Long live Island Fish!

Raw clams were fresh and tasty. However raw oysters were small and not as fresh as clams -- maybe just not a good timing here. The price is reasonable tho.

What's a girl to do when having family over the house for a gathering with no intention to cook? You guessed it, catering it is! This was my first time ordering catering from this place. My dad loves seafood so that was the theme of the night.Service was top notch when ordering the food to receiving the food. The food is where is goes downhill. I ordered individual lobster bakes which everyone in my family enjoyed. I also ordered paella,Hawaiian chicken, stuffed mushrooms, and baked clams which were all mehhhh.I honestly was embarrassed that I served this food at my family gathering . It

If you are looking for a great seafood meal that grandma made, this is your place. Homemade sauces and a great selection. This gem has been here 16 years and I'm at a loss that I never tried it. Best fish sandwich around!

Made a quick stop looking for a seafood salad. Had a great shrimp and dill salad that was perfect. The shrimp was perfectly cooked and proportionally seasoned mixed with fresh vegetables . Also, the owner couldn't have been nicer ! Fast service , good food and great price !!

Absolutely DELICIOUS! I am so mad that I just tried Island Fish for the first time today and I've lived in the area for so long. They're my new fave. The stuffed flounder is to die for and the staff is super friendly. I will definitely be eating here 24/7 now that I found this place.

Big time hidden gem! If you're a seafood lover this place is as good as it gets. Last week we ordered the Lobster risotto balls, absolutely amazing. Staff is super friendly, parking is a pleasure, and it's very easy to get to. Definitely recommended!

The food is amazing! Staff is friendly and service is great! I've always stuck to my linguine with white clam sauce but i want to try the other dishes. And the new england clam chowder - soo good! I've purchased their frozen king crab legs and the big shrimps that tastes and looks like a lobster tail - amazingly good!!! Must try!

What a hidden gem! I stop here all the time to get my seafood fix. Their prices are very fair and the fish is always fresh.
The atmosphere is homey, they have a few small tables if you want to dine in but I usually take my food to go. The staff is always very friendly and you always get served with a smile whenever coming in here.
The menu is huge here. They have frozen fish, or hot plates, sandwiches, wraps, a very wide selection.
Their lobster bisque is pure gold. I could eat that stuff everyday and never get sick of it. Definitely try it if you come here.

We ordered food for Christmas Eve. This is my only experience with this place and its probably their busiest night of the year, so review may not be a usual experience here.

We ordered food to be ready at 4:00. We got there at 4:10 - the place was crowded with people who had apparently been waiting an hour. . .we ended up not getting the food until 5:15.

They could not have been less organized. The impression I got was that the people working don't usually work there, were just were helping for the night. Honestly, it was comical how disorganized they were.

On a positive note,

Worst seafood place ever. Not only was the place extremely pricy the food was absolutely horrible. Here's what we ordered:
1. A dozen of oysters - they were warm, we were scared that we were going to get food poisoning afterwards. I should have known not to order them when I asked them what kind of oysters they were and they didn't know even though they only sell seafood.
2. Fried calamari - worst calamari we have everrrrr tasted. It was bland and rubbery. I can't respect a seafood place that can't get a simple appetizer like this right.
3. Shrimp & dill wrap - this was

OMG! This place is so AWESOME! I don't even know where to start in terms of telling how great of an experience I had at Island Fish. Firstly, the seafood for sale is SUPER FRESH. I found the price to be average and well worth it. I did not feel at all that it was over-priced. The variety of seafood that is offered is great. From crabs, shrimps, fish, and their amazing fresh lobster tails. I bought 2 bags of snow crabs, 2 bags of Brazil lobster tails, 2 bags of local small lobster tails, and 3 pounds of flounder. All so FRESH and DELICIOUS!

And I'm saving the best part for last
