BYOB counter service Astoria, Queens Seafood restaurant.
If you love a little DIY effort mixed in with your seafood dinner, there is only really one place to go in NYC. At Astoria Seafood—it started as a market before expanding to include a restaurant—diners select the fish they want from a shimmering selection of snapper, trout, shrimp, and more, and the chef takes it from there. Simply prepared in olive oil or breaded, the dishes more than make up in freshness what they lack in complicated recipes. Dig into a Greek salad or other sides to round out the meal.
