All the seafood here is fresh, local, and reasonably priced. Spicy salmon sandwich was 10 / 10. Key lime pie was also very good (perfect amount of tartness with hint of sweetness coming from the whipped cream). Service was great and outdoor seating was lovely. Will definitely return !

Every dish at Greenpoint Fish & Lobster was on point. The west coast oysters were so good that we ordered them 3 times! The crudo and tuna tostada were refreshing and a great way to start our meal. Octopus salad was my favorite dish, loved the olives with it. Lobster roll with butter (not mayo) was great too. Fries came crispy just how they should be. This is definitely a place to go in a group so you can try several dishes and flavors. Servers were friendly and helpful too. Large wine selection and they let you try as many as you’d like! Only negative comment is that the seating wasn’t very comfortable, but the quality of the food made up for it. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a seafood spot in Brooklyn.

So delicious! We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. I would highly recommend the green curry mussels. If we were to come back, we would get the oysters or fish sandwich, since those seemed popular and looked delicious. Small indoor space, but they have outdoor seating as well. Would recommend making coming prepared to wait a while if you come on the weekend.

Small, quaint, fun place for dinner. Besides the delicious food, the music and vibe is hip! I want to go back for the razor clams! OMG! The octopus salad was also flavorful and fresh. The lobster bisque was good but I think the lobster chunk cooled the soup down too fast. It was only luke warm. We had the key lime pie for dessert which I don’t even really like but this one was the BEST I have ever had!! They don’t make it in-house but it’s locally made by Steve in Red Hook 🤣😋

This spot is a neighborhood gem. The lobster rolls are consistently fresh. I’ve never had a bad meal or experience here. The vibe is relaxed and friendly, service is always on point.
