Greenpoint

This place is so lovely. When you walk in it's a fish market, then you see the open kitchen and seating area. They greeted us when we walked in, w head no reservations but were seated immediately luckily it wasn't a busy time. We order the lobster rolls Lobster bisque Clam chowder We order a lobster roll with fries and one with salad. The side were great, fresh cut fries are my favorite. Side salad came with a tasty vinaigrette. Lobster roll was packed with well lobster. Crispy toasted roll, very buttery. Honestly the best lobster roll. Lobster bisque was lovely, had some cinnamon & other spices in it, which added a depth of flavor I never realized lobster bisque needed. Truly unlike anything I've ever had before. Clam chowder was just ok.

Absolutely delicious! 4 of us walked in (after putting names on the waitlist) on a Saturday at lunchtime and were seated right away outside. We were on a bit of a time crunch but service and food came quickly! Everything was fresh and delicious. The lobster meat in the lobster roll was absolutely perfect. Loved the $2 oyster special, too! Cute inside but small, so the outdoor seating was perfect. I do wish they had cocktails (maybe even canned options?) but otherwise everything was wonderful!

Absolutely love this spot. Upon walking in I saw a small fresh market with 2 lovely workers . The reso itself is rather small but they do have plenty of counter and outside space. I got the fish sando w/fries Togo and let's just say I almost ate the box it came in. Fish was fried perfectly with all the sauces, and potatoes were fresh as well.

So good! Everything was fresh - oysters and scallops. I was also happy that they had razor clams as a special. That was cooked perfectly as well.

Greenpoint Fish & Lobster was a great place to get a quick bite to eat! It has become my yearly tradition to get a lobster roll for my birthday, and they didn't disappoint. The amount of lobster you get is wild, and the salad was excellent. The chowder was good, and it was a significant portion. There was a seasoning in it that I couldn't figure out what made it unique to other chowders. They offered happy hour daily, and the staff was extremely friendly. It was a cute place to enjoy a glass of wine and a lobster roll. I will go back!

Greenpoint Fish & Lobster have long been on my radar. I was meeting friends for dinner and we decided to meet here. The dining room is tiny and that's one of the negatives of the spot. It's not really conducive for a leisurely and lingering dinner with friends. On the other hand the food was very good. Excellent quality and very delicious even though it's a bit on the pricey side. I'd say 3.5 stars. If they got a bigger space and it was a more comfortable experience I'd round up to 4.

Super busy place! Ordered a lobster roll (the butter version), clams and oysters, and chowder. The lobster roll was my favorite! Everything was delicious and tasty. The servers were very busy but the food came out fast which was great. My bf and I did outdoor seating and we enjoyed every bit!

i heard some rough stories about what happens in back of house with management here. foods good though.

This is easily my new favorite lobster roll in NYC! Came here on a Saturday night - I would recommend making a reservation as tables are limited and there was a line when we left around 7pm. Inside has a few tables with a really nice space, but the majority of their seating is outdoors. Service was quick and attentive! We ordered lobster rolls (mine was with mayo and friends was with butter) and a shrimp cocktail to start. The shrimp cocktail was well priced and very fresh. I loved the touch of a bit of olive oil and salt! The lobster roll was overflowing with fresh plump lobster meat and I loved that the mayo one was not overdone with mayo, it was super light. Side pickle was perfectly crisp! My only complaint is that I wish the fries were more crispy, but other than that it was an awesome dinner!

The food was delicious and fairly quick! I had a craving for lobster and clam chowder, and this spot in Brooklyn really hit the mark for a seafood fix. The fish tacos and clam chowder were bursting with flavor--so satisfying. The bread that came with the lobster was a bit soggy and lacked taste, and at a whopping $35, I'm not sure it was worth it, though it did satisfy my craving. We ended the meal with a key lime pie that was simply divine!!! The service was fairly quick & smooth.

Love the midday happy hour deal here! For $2 each you get high quality oysters, incredibly flavorful and more fresh than most other oyster happy hours. Seating is a bit tight but in the summer they open up the patio which has a chill vibe and a great place to relax with a few drinks and seafood. Service is pretty decent and they have a surprisingly nice restroom too.

The lobster rolls here compare to Boston!!! The lobster was so fresh and juicy and they served a ton on the roll - get it with butter so the taste of the lobster shines through. Thought the fish tacos with fried fish were even better!! Really liked the food but service was so slow and the waiters were rude even though it was 2:30 pm on a Friday....

sat outside at a little table that was pretty awkward. It really wasn't big enough and it was not stable . Our water spilled on us and it was just a little annoying. The place is very busy and the service is very, very good. I did not love the lobster bisque. I did love the razor clams special they had. The oysters were delicious. They definitely do not give you enough cocktail sauce, but we're very accommodating when I asked for more. The crudo was good but i'm not sure it's worth the price for what you get. The mussels are yummy. a bit spicy for me, but i can't handle any spice. lol. I would go back and sit inside.

Got to visit this great spot the other night and I was highly impressed. I loved the ambiance of the inside area and I was seated within minutes. The wine list isn't huge, but they have some great options that pair well with the food. I'd recommend the Spicy Salmon Burger - super good with the right amount of spice!

I ordered food to go (which was delicious), and the service was remarkable. The outdoor seating is pretty too. Thank you so much Nassem!

You must get the scallop! It's so fresh - just add a squeeze of lemon and the chives that are hiding under the roe. The roe is the star of the show - it is lightly seared so there is a chew but the inside just melts in your mouth. I would come back just for this scallop dish. The oysters are fun to try and freshly shucked to order! They rotate the type of oysters - we were lucky and got to try the "fat bastard" oysters which was plump and juicy. The front of the store is a market and the back has some small tables and a bar for dining. It is nothing fancy but the food is fresh.

This is a small restaurant/fish market combo. I ate at the restaurant during its happy hour. The happy hour is a fantastic deal with a delicious East coast oyster treat and discounted wine and cocktails. We stayed for dinner and loved the lobster roll with good fries. My husband enjoyed his tuna fillet. The bottom line I look forward to a return meal.

This place is one of my lists of restaurants I want to go. During the day especially, early afternoon was a good time to go without line and craziness. Happy hour is from 12-6PM but for the drinks is only 4PM. I got 2 glasses of Muscadet, 1/2 dozen of east oysters and 1/2 dozen of clams. Also got cup of small chowder. Food is fresh and service is good. I just wanted to try to get to know if I will bring more friends for fresh seafood. Overall, the place is good and recommended come during the day, not on weekends.

Review is based on service only, food is great but I will never eat at this establishment again. Not sure where this staff learned their skills from but service here is non existent. Not only are they all arrogant, I sat down no one came up to us for 10 mins when they finally did I waited 30 mins for a small Cesar salad, meanwhile the couple next to us who was friends with the waitress kept on receiving new dishes. My waitress finally woke up, and came over to ask how things were after 45 mins wait on tacos. Fast forward I ended leaving a tip 15% and got an eye roll and a nudge in my hip. Awful waitstaff!! Hire new people!! I should have left $0 like they deserved.

Small, but busy seafood restaurant serving hot seafood options and also a raw bar. I highly recommend coming for HAPPY HOUR (even served on the weekends 12-6pm!) Make a res ahead of time, or put your name down and visit a local bar while you wait. We got a few orders of a dozen oysters ($19!!), the clam chowder, fish and chips, and daily crudo. The oysters are so worth it and I'd pair it with the fish and chips if you want something hot. Top it off with a crisp glass of rose, and you're golden!

Nice place to go if you want some food and chill. We ordered the Lobster Roll,Brussel sprouts, and shrimps. It's so cool, there's a fish market inside!

Attentive service, ample seating outdoors and in, and a well curated menu! Came for the $9 wine ans $2 east coast oysters 4-6pm HH but was taken away fr the fish & chips! Tuna burger was good to try and will certainly be back for the lobster roll.

AMAZING. The mussels are SO unique and amazing. Can't go wrong with French fries to dip in the extra sauce. Tuna tartare is one of the best I've had. Worth it for the price enough to split with someone as an app. Service is quick and easy. Great vibes. Great energy. If your a local you must visit and if your a Manhattan girlie you must make the trip.

We walked in without reservation on a rainy Saturday afternoon and after waiting a bit, we were seated. There were tables available but the hostesses were not very attentive and took a while for them to serve us. Hence the docked star. They have happy hour every day from 12-6pm and at $2 per east coast oyster, this was amazing. Shucked well, big fat oysters and the cocktail sauce with radish went well with it. My bf got a dozen west coast oysters and they were Kunamoto oysters. It was a bit annoying because the first waitress just brought us the oysters and expected us to know what kind of east and west coast oysters they were but after flagging another waitress over, she explained which were which. Id come back for happy hour and because the oysters were delicious but they definitely need to work on service here.

This review is for dinner. Very casual neighborhood spot. Overall, I enjoyed the food. The seafood was definitely fresh and I can see myself coming back because I live in the neighborhood, but not sure I'd go too far out of my way to come here. I ordered: -Shrimp Cocktail: it's hard to go wrong with this. Very fresh. I just wish the sauce came on the side. It's at the bottom of the bowl with the shrimp on top. It's hard to dip and there isn't a lot of sauce. -Oysters: good, fresh. -Daily Crudo: mild taste, very fresh. -Caesar Salad: standard, but it was very good. -Fish and Chips: pretty standard, but it was good. A little confused on others who said the portion was big though. Mine was quite small - it only came with two small pieces. -Lobster Roll: again, nothing crazy here. Pretty standard. It was good though. A little spendy for $34, but I guess that's somewhat standard for these.

Disappointed. Expensive. We went because we wanted fresh oysters, lobster rolls and we have heard and read so many reviews. The lobster roll was not that fresh. The color was off, the west coast oysters tasted ok but I was hoping for fresh oysters. Mussels were ok. We sat outside but the flies made the experience a bit unpleasant. The check total with two glasses of wine was $143. That was way too expensive for the food. I guess I was paying for a table at Greenpoint. Save your money and time. Go somewhere else.

This place is THE spot to go satisfy your fish and chips craving. Each piece of fish had a crispy exterior with the meat basically melting in your mouth. I've never had fish and chips that keep their crunchy shell even after it cools down, usually it turns into a mushy mess. (5/5) hands down! We also had half a dozen east coast oysters which were pretty standard and a bit on the smaller side. They came with a mignonette sauce, lemon wedge, horseradish, and cocktail sauce. (3/5) The scallops were so fresh and delicious, lightly seasoned with olive oil and chives I believe. Before we knew it we finished all the slices and revealed the cute shell it came in. (4.5/5) The tuna burger was also pretty good and flavorful, with 2 patties inside and a side of fries. (4/5) Overall, the fish and chips were the star of the meal- highly recommend to try if you're in the area.

This place is a hidden gem ! My boyfriend and I were craving lobster rolls one morning and ended up here for brunch. We were so surprised at how fresh everything was ! To start we had we decided to try the lobster bisque & east coast oysters (forgot to get a picture). The lobster bisque was on the sweeter side, if that how you like it then I def recommend trying it. I usually like mine a little more creamy. But the oysters OH MY GOSH so yummy and fresh!! We also had the fish and chips which my boyfriends fav. But my favorite part was definitely the lobster rolls ! The warm lobster rolls came with butter and the cold comes with Mayo. My boyfriend asked to have both Mayo and butter and we were told by our waitress apparently that wasn't possible ?? Either way we enjoyed our lobster rolls very much. This was such a quaint little spot. I would definitely come back here

Do you give Greenpoint Fish & Lobster a four or a five, that is the question. The Brussel Sprouts get a five without any discussion. Happy hour gives you a discount on certain drinks including wines and the michelada. The Michelada is pretty good and the glass is properly rimmed. sitting outside on a nice day is great as the outdoor seating is on the street side of the property rather than the more pedestrian ridden avenue. Lobster bisque tasted good. I had to wonder if it was actually a butternut squash soup with lobster added. Nothing wrong with that, but the question still occupies a place in my mind. It was tasty. So who gives a damn. The wait was for a table, but I didn't have to wait for a table. When one was available, my party was seated. Oysters were very tasty. Happy hour oysters were about $2 (East Coast). There is a bar inside that you can sit at as well. Four stars if you have a stick up your butt. Five stars if you walk around, understand what your options are in the area and appreciate what these people are doing.

We visited here twice, most recently on August 24th. We ordered at 4:20 PM and waited until 5:00 PM for our food. We had two lobster rolls, oysters, and the wait was exactly 40 minutes. Outside, the smell of garbage and sewage was unbearable. We enjoyed the food, but the long wait and the unpleasant odor were significant drawbacks. The check included 12 oysters for $24, a glass of Coke for $5, beer for $6, lobster rolls for $70, and sea scallops for $15, totaling $150 with tax and tip. We left a 15% tip due to our dissatisfaction. Considering the time, odor, and cost, it wasn't worth it for a snack.

Does not disappoint. EVER. Lobster roll and fried scallops will make you slap your mama!!

Crispy delicious lightly sauced lightly breaded fluffy tacos & loved the side of coconut rice

Overall rating: 4.4/5 I came to Greenpoint Fish and Lobster with my family since we were craving seafood and definitely left satisfied! :-) There is outdoor (unheated) and indoor seating, ambiance is definitely very casual, and service is more relaxed. The flagship is much more approachable than their location in the Hugh. We got the happy hour oysters, octopus salad, live sea scallop, green curry mussels, a lobster roll, and the monger's dinner with salmon. Everything was delicious, and I'd totally order anything we tried again. Seafood was super fresh and flavor pairings were on point.

Great restaurant. We just finished up lunch here and everything was fantastic. The lobster salad sandwich was particularly amazing!

I was craving a good lobster and this place did not disappoint!! the inside is adorable and gives that old school diner / ice shoppe feel, and the lobster is amazing. Hot, juicy and delicious. Staff were friendly and attentive. And they just celebrated 10 years!

Great food, friendly service. Razor clams incredible, lobster roll wow with all that hot butter!

If you're looking for fresh seafood, then this is the place. It's a small restaurant/fish market hybrid. You can have fresh seafood to take home and prepare yourself or you can eat in with a decent menu. I had the Fish and Chips and the fish was flaky and delicious. It comes with English vinegar and tartar sauce (I think it was made in-house). If you're in the Greenpoint neighborhood of Brooklyn, this is a must stop for seafood lovers!

We stopped in for happy hour drinks and oysters...it's a plus to sit outside. Everything was good (price, quality & overall vibe) and we hope to be back for dinner someday soon...

Good clam chowder (more Rhode Island style x Italian Wedding herbs rather than New England thick cream style) but their sandwiches are ok. We waited 5 mins to get seated on an empty day but servers are super nice. My friends love their oysters in particular but for some reason I didn't like them (and I do enjoy oysters). But I usually come back for their white fish items which other places don't do well.

Delicious spot!!! Awesome service and kind people. Great outdoor seating experience. A Must try is the specials, the crab cake smash burger is to die for!!! If you're in the Greenpoint neighborhood and you love seafood this is a must go spot. Enjoy

Limited menu and bar service but what you can get is well worth it. We ate outdoors and the neighborhood scene is NYC gritty and entertaining. The fish and chips were among the best I have ever had and the lobster roll was mostly lobster. I would go back and make it my go to restaurant of its kind. That and you can buy fresh fish and more in their store.

Wow. One of the best brunches I've had in Brooklyn. Everything tasted so fresh. My friend is from New England and is a lobster roll snob and she loved her lobster roll and fries. There's plenty of outdoor seating. My friend and I walked up at 1:30pm on a Saturday without a reservation and were able to be seated quickly even though it was pretty crowded. Price was definitely reasonable--especially for the quality, taste, and service. Our wait staff was stylish AND friendly. :) And the chef or owner came and asked us how are meal was and thanked us for coming in. This place had super good vibes and energy. My friend had a couple of glasses of wine and we just had a great time. Can't wait to go back.

Always fresh! Perfect outdoor ambience. Service it's a hit or miss. The host could be more welcoming.

Best cold lobster roll I've ever had, hands down. In fact, the food all round is fantastic: super-fresh and tasty oysters, nice salad, crispy fries, and more. Yum. I just wish the service were faster. We went twice recently and it took literally an hour for us to get our entrees. This wasn't always the case: with the outdoor area they've built during the pandemic, they've massively expanded their capacity. I assume their kitchen just can't handle that capacity. I hope they remedy the issue by bringing on more (or more efficient) staff or reducing their seating capacity. The food really is A+. Pro-tip for dessert: Moe's Doughs is just a few doors down. My fave doughnuts in NYC.

I'm excited to be writing this review just ahead of their scheduled reopening for the season. Spending an afternoon enjoying many of their seafood dishes at one of their outdoor tables a few months back is a memory I think back on fondly. I remember our server being so friendly, the dishes being tasty and even the coffee served was delicious. Of the dishes we enjoyed, the seafood chowder and curried mussels were especially satisfying and warmed my soul on that brisk day. We tried some oysters on the half shell and they were quite fresh. They only have outdoor seating so they're only open for dining in temperate months, but are fortunately reopening for the season this weekend!

Ordered takeout from Greenpoint Fish and Lobster Co. and the experience was excellent. Their lobster roll is definitely one of the better in the area. The lobster meat was very tender, the bun was toasted perfectly and light on the mayo. The fish and chips were also excellent as well. Not too greasy and seasoned perfectly. The food arrived well packed and fresh. I highly recommend for seafood takeout.

A great Connecticut-style lobster roll! Bun was nicely toasted, ample amounts of lobster, and they didn't skimp on the clarified butter. The seafood chowder was good too. I am from CT and have been to Abbott's in Noank quite a few times. This is almost as good. The waiter was wearing a Chris Isaak shirt. Good taste in music. Everybody likes "Wicked Game" (and rightfully so), but "Somebody's Crying" and "I Wonder" (off the "Tin Cup" soundtrack) are also great songs.

As Italian I'm very picky when is time of eating fish... Well I found the right place here! Fresh food ( they have a daily fish market beside so the rotation of the fish is very high )good selection of wines and super friendly service. The plate are rich ! I recommend the " Tuna Tostada" and I love the oysters so...even them very tasty. As hot I got the "Monger Dinner" A place where you want to eat and enjoying the atmosphere!!

- no dine in as of 5/20/22 - THAT was a lobster roll - $37 for lobster and fries without drink - fries were thumbs up - the bread on the lobster roll is grilled to perfection, although it is a little flimsy - on an empty afternoon, my order was done within ten minutes
