Worst Experience EVER! Walk-in order at 7:33pm...8:09pm check on order and the chef says he never received said order. Tells me wait 10 mins which turns into another 15 mins. Ordered Pepper Steak, sauteed spinach with rice and peas on the side. The spinach and pepper steak are drowned in gravy like soup and the rice is a pool of what I think is the water from making it. Definitely not the experience I would have expected but they wont be seeing my face again...even though I only live 2 blocks away. The only saving grace was the extra polite and apologetic cashier.

First off it’s 90 degrees in NYC, why wouldn’t your establishment have air conditioning? Secondly there’s no one at the register to take customer orders, customers literally standing on line for 10 minutes or more to order. The Uber / DoorDash workers are standing inside as well making the heat conditions worse than they need to be. & third, the dark skinned woman who serves the food has no manners she’s either ignoring customers or Uber/DoorDash delivery drivers. Management is a must because more than half the menu is prepared already buffet style so why does it take so long to get out of Bed Stuy Fish Fry? Bad business. Won’t recommend. Like if you agree.

Saturday 5/1/22 aproximately 9:30pm- Food was good, BUT the service was HORRIBLE! Upon entering I was greeted nicely by the cashier. I told him I was from CT and this was my Virgin voyage and they were highly recommended. However, after paying and stepping to the side for 25 minutes I watched the server preparing orders. She was flinging the food into the containers sloppily and had very poor customer service skills. I noticed she was preparing my food so I stepped forward. She prepared 2 of my 3 orders then glared at me and said Your orders not ready. I said, That is my order youre preparing. She then raised her voice and said Didnt you order fried jerk salmon? Do you see it? Your orders not ready. I then said, Tone!?! She rolled her eyes took off her apron went to the cashier picked up a soda and started drinking. The cashier whispered something to her then began filling the orders after she said she cant be bothered. When she came back, without washing or sanitizing her hands, the attitude was worse. After 45 minutes I asked what the hold up was and she yelled You ordered jerked salmon and it takes time! She then continued to loudly mumble. I said Are you talking to me? You have dropped 2 baskets of chicken and they are being served to people who ordered after me. Surely salmon cooks faster than chicken. My daughter who was in the car saw her posturing and gesturing and called me. When she heard how the server was talking to me she came inside and asked Who is talking disrespectfully to my mother? The server rambled on saying she couldnt MAKE me understand the salmon takes longer to cook because it is cooked to order. I then said Salmon takes 5 minutes at most to cook. I said, Show me this salmon that takes 45 minutes to cook. They hadnt dropped it yet. She then was disrespectful to the fry cook who said he was not given the order. I said, Then cancel the order and refund the meals. She yells NO REFUNDS! My daughter told her No problem. I will dispute it with my credit card company. The cashier then said the meal would be ready in a few minutes. It was, but the sides were wrong. After all of this the food was good, but the service... have mercy.

I love Bed-Stuy fish fry! They are very nice here. I often order the cat fish fritters. Yummy! Their potato salad tastes like ya favorite Auntie made it… no lie. The mac and cheese is good and the yams… the greens are cooked well not salty.

UPDATE: I never really give an updated review on places I visit however I feel like this one is necessary. I raved to my cousin about Bed-Stuy Fish Fry and since we were in the area on Sunday we decided to visit. By the time we got home we realized our order was incorrect and items were missing. I ordered and paid for a large cabbage and it wasn’t in the bag. My cousin ordered large yams and was given baked macaroni and cheese instead. The whiting fish taste absolutely horrible. I was surprised because the last few times I’d been there the food was absolutely amazing. The cabbage in one of my other orders wasn’t even cooked the cabbage was hard. The yams also taste horrible and werent cooked. The fish and chips we were we received about a ¼ of fries. Mostly importantly the employer who took our order was nasty and seemed as though she had an attitude. What I didn’t appreciate is she waited until we placed our order to tell us they were only accepting cash since the machine was down. There should have been a sign or it should have been mentioned before we ordered. What if I didn’t have cash on me? I was highly disappointed with both the service and food. The little bit of food I did eat upset my stomach to the point I felt like I had to vomit. I was even more upset there wasn’t a number listed so I could contact the restaurant to inform them I was missing an item and my order was incorrect. I’m not sure if I’d visit anytime soon after the experience I just had.WOW, I don’t even know where to start. A friend of mines recommended Bed-Stuy Fish Fry to me years ago. I was finally in the area and decided to give it a try. I almost walked by the restaurant because there is no awning. There are QR codes outside the restaurant so you can view the menu. The restaurant accepts cash and card. However, if you pay with card be prepared to pay a processing fee of 3.5%. It was about a 10–15-minute wait because there was no baked macaroni and cheese ready. There is a. bench outside the restaurant for you to sit on while you wait for your food. The restaurant is very clean, no foul smells, the cashier was very polite and welcoming. I ordered the fried whiting dinner 4 pieces with cabbage and baked macaroni and cheese, and baked chicken 2 pieces a leg and thigh with yams and macaroni and cheese. Let me tell you it was love at first bite. The fish is seasoned well, the yams are soft and sweet and the baked macaroni and was worth the wait it was perfect. I love the fried whiting fish was very fresh and has no bones in it. The baked chicken meal also comes with a drink. The baked chicken was okay. I will definitely be back for more, give them a try I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.

I usually go to the one on Fulton and I love it there! The food is amazing!!!!!!! But since I was closer to this one I said let me try it and it was DISGUSTING, definitely two different recipes. Money wasted and I’m so disappointed. Never switch stores again.

Ok EVERYTHING was on and popping even the long stems left on the collard greens....I was popping them in my mouth like they were string beans.....oww wee...my son said he aint mad that the delivery was delayed....I still was, I had to wait longer for the deliciousness....shrimp, catfish, whities, Mac n chz, sweet potatoes, French fries, and corn. I never had corn like that in my 57 years of life.....thank you FINALLY a meal worth purchasing and worth the wait according to my son...Follow up...I originally ordered from crown heights, they are still 🔥 in my eyes.....today my son wanted me to order again so I DID, this time from the Halsey address....I ordered the oxtail dinner with peas n rice rice n collards....the collards was ok...the peas n rice and the oxtail seemed under cooked FOR ME...the oxtail I had to FIGHT to get off the bone and the rice was hard..I know there are a lot of people who enjoy it that way ( the flavor was on point tho) but thats not my preference....I ordered the catfish, shrimp n fries the shrimp never made it to my house THAT IS 1 AND 1/2 DEDUCTION..if nothing else AT LEAST GET THE ORDER RIGHT....we waited longer although the place was closer and the order was missing an item....but back to the taste of the food...THAT CATFISH WAS OH SO DAMN GOOD!!!!I also ordered the rasta pasta and jerk ckn which wasnt bad and I ordered the seafood mac n chz, paired that with fried catfish and I TELL YOU I WAS IN HEAVEN...ok lets wrap it up I will DEFINITELY order from them again 😅🙃 I will ALWAYS ORDER THE FISH ( hence bedstuy fish fry) but steer away from the oxtail n rice...southern dishes YES!!!! Caribbean dishes NO....HALSEY ST need to do better, other issue was not securing the oxtail gravy....they served it in the wrong container whereas the order came in 3 different type of containers they just selected the wrong container ( probably because they didnt have a bigger version of the container they shouldve used). They definitely serve NICE PORTIONS of food

Had To Edit My Review From 4 Years Ago. Just Got Some Food From One Of My Go To Spots . With Great Disappointment I Had to Write This Review, Number One The Place Was Ethiopian Hot. . I Ordered The Honey Glaze Salmon It Was Very Salty I Could not Eat It , the Mac And Cheese Was Very Dry. It Was More Like boiled Macaroni with cheese on top , Dry Dry With Seasoning On It . I have Never encounter This before . Not only that Yes The Prices Are Much Higher The Service Is Has Dropped And Then You want To Give People Half The Food. Sorry but this review was So Necessary . Respect Your Ne Neighborhood We Will Respect You. Loyal Customer

Ordered steamed catfish, string beans & asparagus. I have eaten here before but was disappointed with the high amount of salt in the catfish. I choose steamed as a healthy choice & it was inpalatable. The string beans was great. The asparagus had 2 to 3 tips & mixed stalk which was mainly the bottom large area which was too hard to chew or eat. This was a $22 meal. Dont offer asparagus if over 50% of it is not edible.I waited months for you to reopen. Please do better.

Horrible service. No customer service skills at all. They play around while people wait in line for over 20 mins to support there business. The dark skin cashier is a joke. She should not have a service job. They need a new staff. I just walked out I will not give my money to no black owned business that hires people that gave no respect.
