Greenpoint Fish + Lobster Co.

What they say

“We believe the long-term viability and future of the world’s seafood starts with responsibly managed fisheries, transparency, traceability, and well-informed consumers. We focus on local and seasonal seafood from fishermen and purveyors who care as much about the health of our oceans as we do.”

Signature Dishes

Fish collar simmered in shrimp curry, serrano peppers, and cilantro; live sea scallop crudo; porgy fish tacos topped with citrus cabbage slaw and chipotle-lime mayo, radishes, and cilantro.

What we say

This pristine white-tiled space in the Greenpoint neighborhood of Brooklyn doubles as a fish market and a restaurant for those who would prefer to have their seafood cooked (or shucked) to order. The team partners with the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch to ensure they’re protecting the future health of the oceans and seafood businesses like theirs.

From clam chowder and fish tacos to hickory smoked fish pâté and razor clam roti, there’s little on the menu that doesn’t come from the sea, and there’s no meat in sight. Diners are served at a marble bar and a few high tops, so it’s best to arrive with a date.
