I have a friend in from Texas and thought - Caplingers! I had been to the Fresh Catch Seafood Market before, and just LOVED it. We went to the southside location out of convenience, spent around $30.00 for two, (water to drink) and the dissappointment was very high. Long Johns would have been just as good. The Seafood Market location on the Northside of Indy was great; Took my non sea-food eating mom, and even she loved it. However, the location at 7620 Meridian was not so great. The fish and shrimp were overcooked, like it had been fried before, rebattered and fried again. The portions were very small for the price. Neither of our plates were 'fresh' at all. I contemplated grilled, but thought I'd try fried for a change. -Never again. I'm skeptical to even go back to the other location I really enjoyed.
Very busy place... Good fish... Didn't have long wait time wasn't awful considering how busy it was catfish was amazing
It's been many years since our last visit, and we're sorry it's been such a long lapse. The facility is a combination deli and restaurant, with some really tasty options from which to choose. If one is eating in, one orders up front; and the cooked food is brought to the table. We enjoyed the Caplinger's special and cod dinners; as well as the accompanying baked beans, mac & cheese, hushpuppys, etc. We especially enjoyed (later) the take-out seafood (lots of shrimp) pasta salad, and really delicious smoked salmon dip. Our only suggestion would be that their banana pudding parfait be stronger on the amount of banana pudding, and a bit leaner on the vanilla wafer. All and all, this location is an excellent option, if one is wanting to explore a good seafood selection (both cooked and raw). We definitely won't wait so long again, to partake of their offerings.
So I ordered off Doordash ordered the alligator tail and frog legs. I did get the alligator tail....priced about $2 a pice for what they offer. Got the waffle fries I think there were 5...for how ever much they charge. Never got frog legs...just think way to expensive for what get
We went to the south location. The food was great and the staff was very friendly and attentive! We will definitely be back!
For the 2nd time in a row they could find my online order. Online order stated would be ready by 7:33. Arrived 10 minutes late from previous experience and behold I was told to wait another 10 minutes. The store was not crazy busy. Good food but made my wife promise me to not return because of lack of organization and delayed after delayed food service. BE, Indy
Wonderful choice of fresh fish and seafood. Maybe the best fried cod in central Indiana. Clam chowder and greens are also the very best.
Amazing fresh fish! The chef came out personally to make sure we were satisfied. The whiting grilled fish with blackened seasoning was cooked perfectly and delicious! Hush puppies were amazing. My brother had the Caplinger’s special which was a huge fried fish sandwich. He said it was the best fish sandwich he has ever had. Wonderful service! They also have fresh fish display so you can cook at home. They are opening one close to Greenwood so looking forward to having one closer.
We stop by Caplinger's any time we're in the area to pick up 1 or 2 containers of the Smoked Tuna salad to take home. This has become a staple in our home. Always fresh and delicious. So much better than lunch meat.
