Fordham Fried Seafood & Chicken 2468 Grand Concourse, The Bronx, New York 10458,

"I've been coming to this place for many years because the food was always delicious and affordable. On my most recent visit 4/13/24, the food was disappointing to eat. The seafood lacked any type of seasoning, tasted really bland and it was soggy when I brought it home 10 minutes later. I had to use tartar sauce and hot sauce to eat it. However the most disappointing part of the meal was the "fried" rice. The rice was very mushy and tasteless. It must have been sitting in the rice cooker too long or prepared with too much water. After 2 spoonfuls I had to throw it out. At first I thought it was just me. But my son who also ate the same thing I ordered felt the rice was gross and the seafood lacked flavor. I always ordered the rice over fries with my meals so this was a huge disappointment."

"I usually get steamed shrimp with vegetables and Food is always delicious . Call to pick up my order and worker is always nice . Do recommend"

"What more could you ask from a fried seafood spot? It's got that hole-in-the-wall vibe, super affordable, and very tasty. Happened to be nearby and haven't had fried seafood in quite a bit, so why not get their deluxe (which is like a sampler)? I ended up Getting the No8 - Seafood Deluxe. It comes with: 1 fried fish 2 fried crabsticks 3 fried pieces of shrimp 5 fried scallops. I got it with fried rice, but you could also get French fries. All of that for $8.35. I read bad reviews about the fries, so stuck with the rice. This also came with hot sauce, garlic lemon sauce, and tartar sauce. The rice was really good and if you're okay with fried like I am, everything else was fried perfectly. Good crisp outside, soft inside...all of it. I also got an order of tostones which were fried perfectly and their mini fridge is stocked with crab salad and potato salad. Both were really good. And let's just make sure we're clear...this is probably all imitation crab, but I grew up on that in my childhood, so I'm perfectly fine with. Definitely patronage this shop if you need your fried seafood fix."

"I have been going to this wonderful establishment since I was a child. They are the truth. Their food is the truth. Humble people. Love their steam vegetables, crab sticks and fish sandwich"
