Tuckahoe Seafood

The best of the best! If you’re looking for impeccable service, fresh shrimp, and delicious crab, this is the place to be! Jake is always wonderful when I call, answering all of my questions and setting aside or ordering what I need. I cannot recommend them enough!

I discovered Tuckahoe Seafood and went shopping for scallops and fresh tilapia and blue crabs. I didn’t find fresh tilapia nor live blue crabs, but I got very fresh scallops and their seafood looks very fresh as well. The place is small and very clean and they carry other goods as well, that complement the seafood. I asked how to cook scallops and received good advice. I seared them 3 minutes in the pan as suggested, no butter no olive oil cause it burns quickly, a bit of canola oil salt and pepper to season the scallops and they came out very tasty. I added steamed broccoli as a side enjoyed this light dinner with white wine.

For $11 just ate the best shrimp I’ve ever had. All shrimp will forever more fall short. I am a new woman. All the guys working there were kind and helpful, even when I walked in 5 mins before closing. I also got a dozen oysters (fresh, incredible) and a tuna steak (if it’s not good it’ll be my fault). Wanted to take a picture but I literally ate the shrimp up in a wild frenzy and the five I saved for my son are now actually three and I’m actually about to just eat the rest of them. My seven year old ate one of these oysters for the first time and actually liked it.

I went to check this place out because the Internet said they had a good selection of tinned fish and I needed to get some for my dad for Christmas. I found a bunch of really interesting and high quality options! Will return.

Today was my first time in and I loved everything about it. The oysters were delicious 😋 I would send a pic but....there ain't no more 🤣😂
