"A Northwest Side seafood market and restaurant that’s been around for almost eight decades and is one of only two remaining natural hardwood smokehouses in Chicago (South Deering institution Calumet Fisheries being the other), this spot draws people for smoked fish from salmon to sable to trout, plus a variety of fried seafood and a stellar crispy pollock sandwich. What really makes it worth a visit is its smoking service: customers can bring their own fish and the shop will clean and smoke it for them. There’s no indoor seating and only a few tables outside, so be prepared to take the food to go." - Ashok Selvam
