    The Manhattan Soup was absolutely fantastic! The ice tea is unsweetened (like I prefer) but not at all bitter, quite delicious. I had their swordfish as I've never had this fish. It was good but not a favorite of mine, it's something between a Tuna and chicken. Service was perfect and the place is clean. I will definitely return if I'm ever in the area again and hungry.

    Went here for my friend debbies daughter graduation celebration. She has been telling me to go here for years and I'm so mad i never came. My lobster roll was so good and fresh. Even my added on steamed vegetables were tastier than i expected. Everyone's food looked specially prepared just for them and i didn't see one unhappy face. I will be here on my next Friday date night with my wife.

    Decor is very dated. Food was good... not great and definitely not worth the money I spent. Service was great. Just over $200.00 for dozen oysters, calamari appetizer, 2 dinners and 2 bar drinks, oh and 2 club sodas as well. To pricey for just ok food.

    First time here. We had the calamari which was ok but about 16rings for $16, 1/2dz chopped baked clams that were very small about $13, clam strips were mostly breading. A cup of Gumbo and New England Clam Chowder that had 3 little pieces of potatoe and 1 small piece of clam. A Ceasars salad. Also a Titos and pineapple juice that was mostly juice. No value for your money. Not worth going back IMO.

    Easy to see right off of Fire Island Avenue servicing Babylon and the adjoining areas of Suffolk County. Plenty of parking and a wheelchair accessible entrance. Moderately clean facilities. Public Restroom. Reasonably priced. Credit cards accepted. Nice staff. We will most likely be going back..

    A out of the way place by the water in Babylon. A casual seafood joint that offers fresh food. I was there during lunch time on a weekend and it was fairly empty. More guests were coming as I left. I feel it's a place locals like to go for well priced seafood.

    Not what we expected at all for the price we paid. The worst bisque I've EVER tried. The Cod was sloppy and a had a weird after taste. It felt as if it was bathed in chemical bath. The only meal that was ok - a burger. The service could use some basic training. Will not return.

    I will say this is some of the freshest seafood I've enjoyed in a long time. The service was warm and inviting. The young busboy was polite and attentive. The seafood bisque was creamy, but not heavy. The clams and mussels were absolutely to die for (with perfect texture) and the garlic bread was an excellent tool to use in order to lap up and soak up all the wonderful sauce. The grilled shrimp were perfectly cooked and seasoned. The margarita on the rocks went down so smoothly I had to ask for a 2nd round. I cannot wait to come back and try some more dishes like the clam chowder or soft shelled crab. There are plenty of seats either indoors or outdoors, with a parking lot as well.

    Went there for some dinner after a day of boating. This place is conveniently located right next to the Babylon marina and has plenty of parking available. I got the snow crab dinner with a side of pasta. For $35 bucks it was an amazing deal!!!! Other places charge twice as much for the same thing. I was very impressed with the quality of the food and the attentive service. I will definitely be back.

    My friends and I were celebrating our friend's upcoming relocation. It was the first time all 6 of us were there. It was a Friday night and there was a decent amount of people but, not crowded. We had a great time together in an environment that did not rush us. The staff was friendly and patient with us. Would I go back, absolutely!

    Stopped in for our 29th wedding anniversary started off with an amazing bloody Mary appetizers and a five star dinner we were so please we came back two days in a row. Can’t say enough about the staff and owners Mellissa and Franz and the entire waitress staff they made us feel like we’re the only customers

    Had the BEST experience here! My husband and I had dinner here after leaving another establishment where we were ignored for over 40 minutes. We are SO glad we did! Josh was our waiter and he is phenomenal! He made us feel right at home and his service was impeccable. The food was fresh and delicious, we will definitely be coming back!

    We've been going here for many years and it never gets old. What's better on a summer eve to have a cold one and some fresh seafood on the deck. Then stroll around the docks afterwards. Real Long Island living.

    Horrible Food and Drinks for ANY Price. Its a very sad place. It used to be good. Went there with another couple and we split the check. Next day I checked my credit card and low and behold the waiter charged me with the entire bill , charged my friends with the entire bill and also charged me an extra 100.00 on seperate transaction. Now I have to fight to get my money back. Stay away from this place.

    Disappointed is the best way to describe my experience this time out. Stuffed flounder, while I'm sure this was made on site, lacked flavor. The fried shrimp was crunchy, had seasoning, but I'm sure this was not made on site. It seemed like it was frozen. For the 2 items above and a couple of others not worthy of mention, our tab without drinks read over $70.

    Alot of good tasting food for the money,great service

  • 4/5 David S. 2 years ago on Google
    Pic of inside(dining room) looks a lot better online than actually being there, took one star away for that. (Atmosphere not so great). Food(fish)very fresh and good both times we ate here. Bowl of seafood bisque was very tasty, except mostly small shrimp not sure what else to be honest, Stuffed Flounder (a classic) a one of the best, really well made always a sure bet! Try this place and lmk what you think...

  • 1/5 Alex R. 10 months ago on Google
    Avoid this place. We waited over an hour and 15 minutes for our clam chowder to come out, which was most likely from a Campbell’s can. You would think with how long it took, they were out catching the fish fresh, but after the food came out the portions were small and we still left hungry. This deserved a zero star, but the bus boy was such a rockstar it brings it up to one star.

  • 5/5 Jeff S. 9 months ago on Google
    The food was decent. The fish could have been better seasoned. The shrimp could have been sprinkled with old bay seasoning. The steamed veggies were awesome.

    Wonderful quaint place with terrific food and service, the Babylon Fish and Clam restaurant offers very fresh fish (they even sell fish in one section) and great service! I ate with a group of ladies from church, and all enjoyed their experience.
