Fast Food RestaurantSeafood RestaurantTake Out RestaurantChicken Restaurant
Real seafood should be sourced from real sea-places, like, you know, oceans. So that's exactly where we source our wild-caught Alaska pollock, wild-caught Alaska salmon, and wild-caught north Pacific cod. We’re no one trick sea pony.

    Fish was hard. Cooked to long in dirty grease. Cole slaw was bitter. Ate in Merrillville on our way home to Anderson. They closed ours in Anderson so we thought we would get a great meal. Terrible should have went to captain D's. They should close this one Dd

    My food was fresh and hot. I tried their new cheese curds. They were a little pricey but good.
