点评:As full time residents on the beach, Fishtale was once a nice spot for the locals to get away from the craziness of the Time Square area and enjoy tasty food, a great view and awesome staff. We, personally, would frequent 3-5 times a week and referred to everyone as our “Fishtale Family”. What has happened as of 2022 is that Fishtale has been bought by the Phelan group, which owns Pinchers.
We have never and will never visit a Pinchers as we do not support chain restaurants and would rather support small businesses, like it was. Since then, it has become exactly what you’d expect - lower quality food at higher prices and honestly it’s embarrassing to see what it’s become.
We were excited initially for a few new menu items but having an almost $30 crab cake with a disclaimer of “So fresh you may get some shell” isn’t my idea of a good addition. They couldn’t even be bothered to come up with something different with that, as it’s exactly the same description of the crab cake at Pinchers.
We strictly go back to support the staff that remains from the old owners.
翻译:作为海滩上的全职居民,Fishtale 曾经是当地人远离时代广场地区的疯狂并享受美味食物、美景和优秀员工的好地方。我们个人每周会经常光顾 3-5 次,并将每个人称为我们的“Fishtale Family”。截至 2022 年,Fishtale 已被拥有 Pinchers 的 Phelan 集团收购。
我们从来没有也永远不会去 Pinchers,因为我们不支持连锁餐厅,而是像以前一样支持小企业。从那时起,它就变成了你所期望的——质量较低的食品价格较高,老实说,看到它变成什么样子真是令人尴尬。
我们最初对一些新菜单项目感到兴奋,但有一个将近 30 美元的蟹肉蛋糕和免责声明“如此新鲜,你可能会得到一些贝壳”并不是我认为的好补充。他们甚至懒得想出一些不同的东西,因为它与 Pinchers 的蟹饼描述完全相同。
我们严格回去支持旧业主留下的员工。
