Fresh Fish House

I was out running errands with my dad and he suggested that we stop at the Fresh Fish House to get some seafood. I have to say I’m glad we did! We both ordered the Wednesday special of shrimp dinner for only $ 7.99. The food was excellent and fried to perfection. The staff was very friendly and very helpful in helping us to decide what we wanted. I will definitely be back again. Been craving those delicious shrimp ever since!

I passed this place many times over the years and was always curious to stop by but never had the opportunity. That chance came a few months back when I wasn’t able to find crab legs for my Mom at Meijers, who wanted to surprise my Dad with some crab and rice for dinner. I took a chance and checked Fresh Fish House out.
Parking lot is a bit tight to navigate and making a left can be a pain with all the cross traffic. But it was worth it to find out that they do indeed sell crab legs there and the prices were pretty reasonable. I’m not sure if the «U Buy, We Fry» applies to crab legs but that wasn’t an issue since my Mom would be cooking the crab legs.
It was worth the trip to see the smile on my Mom’s face when I came home with my bounty. Plus it’s nice to have a fish place for those in the city to go to w/​o always having to venture out deeper in the suburbs.

Neighborhood fish market with a few upscale choices. You can get your fish fried while you wait. Nothing fancy and reasonably priced.

U Buy We Fry!
Passed this place a thousand times and have always wanted to stop and…
…today was the day!
There are a couple of U Buy We Fry places in Detroit but this one seems to be the crown royal; always busy with it’s tropical décor and neon lights.
As you enter the joint, the fish smell hits you. The place is a huge, open space with a counter and frier in the back. There are couple of seats and pictures of famous people line the wall which include P Ditty with J Lo, Donald Trump, and some Fox 2 New Reporter. As for the fish, they offer a huge variety including whiting, orange roughy, ocean and lake perch, bull dog (carp), catfish, shrimp, rock bass, and tilapia. The options are fish n’ chips or sandwiches. Depending on the fish they may freshy filet it for you.
I decided on the steak of fried fish and selected orange roughy. At 6.79 for fish and chips — it seemed like a steal. The taste was surprisingly good! Nice crisp batter and fresh fish. Fries are thick but a little soggy. Comes with wheat bread, tartar sauce and frank’s hot sauce.
This place has a private lot and I probably will return again when i need my fill of fish n’ chips.
Oh and my Japanese friend gives it two thumbs up! :)
