“ We got the whiting and flounder , super fresh and hot , breading was super crunchy and tasty . Mac n cheese and potato salad were also very good . Love the tartar sauce also , you cam taste how fresh it is. Highly recommend ”
“ Tried this place for the first time today and picked up some catfish with fries. Honestly, I was surprised by some of the negative reviews because the catfish was excellent—golden, flaky, and cooked perfectly. As for the restaurant itself, the interior could use a bit of sprucing up, but my interaction with the gentleman working there was great. He was friendly and even thanked me for my purchase, which I appreciated. I’ll definitely be back soon, but I do have one suggestion: why doesn’t this seafood spot serve hush puppies? Is there something against hush puppies in the Northeast? It’s surprising that no one seems to have them around here! ”
“ My husband and I went today and ordered, I ordered the Flounder with cabbage, potato salad and cornbread, he ordered Whiting with fries, and coleslaw. We were all in it. The fish was large pieces crunchy and the fish was meaty just the way we liked it. The potato salad and cabbage was delicious also. The fries and coleslaw were delicious but he said that he likes my coleslaw better. Overall it is our place for fried fish for now on. The lady at the counter was very polite and welcoming. The place is small, but I like the idea of having to see into the kitchen. ”
“ Heard about this place from a friend. Stopped today for a fish fry sandwich. See the photo of just one sandwich. I ordered fried clams as well but I ate them before I could take the picture so there is nothing to show but an empty container. They are so nice and accommodating there and the food is outstanding. I will definitely be back. BTW. My side and I split the one fish fry sandwich it was so much. Yummy ”
“ Dropped by for chicken, but I was curious about the fish. I got some fried fish and I was super impressed. 3 whole fillets, perfectly breaded, not greasy. The cornbread is to die for too, it knocked my socks off. ”

“ The fish was really good that I ordered and wasn’t too greasy which is good because that would have killed the meal for me . Definitely coming back soon . ”
“ Today was my first time ordering at Vicky's. The food was very tasty. I had fried oysters, flounder, whitings, candy, yams, macaroni and cheese and fried oysters. The servant sizes was enough for two people. I will return. ”
