The prices are amazing but I don’t like the food I tried. Also, the service was great and the cashier was very polite. However, I dined in and had fish, shrimp, fries, and an egg roll. They don’t specify what kind of fish it is. The fish is battered with some kind of fish fry, no cornmeal. Just flour and some other things. The fries were decent but unseasoned. The egg roll was flavorful but extremely greasy. The shrimp was fried in flour as well. I actually waited about 20 minutes for the food to cook and they left off my shrimp. I then waited another 10 minutes for it. It was fresh and decent for the price. I just don’t think it tasted that great.

So todays lunch was seafood. I wanted to try this spot that my brother told me about.It's a small shop that sells fried seafood and they also sell fish and shrimp to take home to fry or cook on your own. I was greeted as I walked in the door. I ordered 1 catfish and 12 shrimp. There was no combo for it so I ordered the dozen shrimp combo and added a piece of catfish. It comes with two sides, I got fries and an egg roll. What I did like was the holes they put in the to-go box so that the steam would not make my food soggy on the way home. First bite into the catfish I noticed that it was not catfish, I believe it was swai catfish (a type of catfish) and I don't care for for swai at all. The food was fried to perfection especially the shrimp. The crunch was like crispy fried chicken. The batter was seasoned as well. The shrimp was so good. When I have a taste for some good ol' fried fish I will be going here and it was not expensive at all.If you want good fried shrimp go here. If you don't mind eating swai catfish then you may like beachside it was definitely seasoned well and fried good.

Fri 3/18/22 5ish pm2 fish/2 shrimp combo side fries canned drink $11 a bit overpriced the Fries were dry & bland. The Fish was ok, the shrimp was ok. It was edible, it wasn't somethig to write about, I don't have to go back. The cashier was polite, the food was made to order. The establishment was clean.

Simple, fresh, clean. AND DELICIOUS!!!41 years , Keeping it a family business , pure honest and friendly.

Food is great! Employees very nice. Definitely recommend if you want good fried fish and shrimp. Hot and fresh.

Omg this place is heaven. The food always taste clean and fresh. I never had fried salmon until I had it here, talk about awesome!!!!!!! It’s everything!! They always make me and my granddaughter feel welcomed when we come in. She still can’t believe I’m a grandma.

They have a variety of fish filles. At least 20 options on the menu. Personally, I like the eggrolls.They're just as good as Jack in the box. You can get 4 eggrolls a side of cole slaw /with fries for less than 10$. Hours are from 10am-6pm daily. Closed Sunday. Very small establishment but has been around for quite some time now. Try it out

Fountain View Seafood Market has got "seafood going on"! I've been many times. I normally get the #16 (3 fish, 12 shrimp) with 2 choices of French fries, slaw, or egg rolls. I like all the sides and normally have a hard time choosing.It's mostly pick up or delivery and some eat there while all in their own zone surfing their cell phones so don't expect conversation. I don't think they have a bathroom so pee before you go. The ladies are friendly but don't expect too much conversation from them either. The kitchen and display areas are spotless despite being an older place and a lot of effort is spent to maintain a fish place. No greasy or fishy smell when you walk in.I don't like fried food, I don't like fried food! So what? There are other things to get so get over it.

Now I remember why I havent been back here for so long... jacked up the prices and portion seem like gotten smaller, go figure. Their fried fish fillet are paper thin, you see more breading than the actual fish, it's pathetic.
