"Very disappointed, paid $30 for a lobster roll, got a broken stale bun and soggy flavorless fries."
Our first time at Sheelen's was Saturday evening 4/16/22 when we were passing by on South Ave. in Fanwood. Since it was late, we chose takeout are very happy with the quality and taste of the battered fried fish chips, Po'boy Shrimp sandwich and fried battered zucchini! The battered food is fried until golden the fish is cooked just right. The portions are a good size, larger than we expected. The Cole Slaw is tasty. The knowledgeable young woman who took our order answered all our questions about the foods. While we waited for the food, she said we were welcome to sample their soups; the 4 large soup kettles are self serve. We tried the Lobster Bisque and the New England Clam Chowder both w...
After my work day, I was craving for some Poke Bowl so we decided to drive and check out Sheeleen’s Fish Market. Poke is pronounced poh KAY and rhymes with OK. The place was nice and cozy, both indoor and outdoor dining. Of course, we picked outdoor, next to the flowers, basked in the hot sun on a summer day. They had a whole lot of seafood choices! My choice of bowl is the Tuna Poke Bowl fresh tuna tossed in teriyaki ginger dressing, corn, edamame, cucumbers, seaweed salad, mango, pineapple, carrots, scallions on brown rice. I got my husband the Lobster roll. Since it’s officially Summer, Lobster rolls are the best! A lobster roll consists of chunks of tender, sweet, cooked lobster meat bar...
The food arrived in less than two minutes, which should have raised a red flag. The ceviche was particularly bad, tasting mostly like plain tomato juice with no hint of lime, salt, or pepper. To top it off, they only provided three chips with a large bowl of ceviche—completely unbelievable!
I can't understand how a fish market could lack a proper selection of fresh seafood. After spending that much on food we couldn't even enjoy, we definitely won't be coming back. While the customer service was great, it couldn’t make up for the terrible food experience we had.
The first few yrs it was open it was good but has gone steadily down hill. The fried stuff is over attested and greasy. Got a poke bowl a few months ago and was swimming in the sauce making it inedible. I called to inform them and the owner did not care or offer to remedy. Tried fur last time today. The lobster rolls have always been good. Ordered a cold lobster roll but instead got one that had melted butter and lukewarm. The fresh fish behind the counter looked like it had been lying around. That's it. I am done. I'll drive to the fish store in Plainfield

So sorry to report this first time here and just t spent 20.00 on garbage hush puppies taste like sweet doughnuts everything is not cooked just soft not crispy I even asked to make it crispy my mistake is I paid b4 getting my nasty meal tried to give them business and when I tried to go back they were closed I support new business but u guys stole my 20 bucks
The fish was absolutely delicious! However, the empanadas were quite difficult to eat. They are made with a cornmeal tortilla, and the filling wasn't very impressive. On the positive side, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was lovely. Unfortunately, I wasn't a fan of the tartar sauce.
They've significantly reduced the menu and removed some of their best dishes. I understand it might have been a business decision, but I’m not impressed. There's really nothing left that interests me.
Best fresh seafood and fish you can buy!!! Had king crab legs, scallops little necks and tilapia for New Years Eve. Cooked them myself and they turned out excellent.

Easy stop after work for fresh fish, pre-made choices, or take out. Convenient and fresh! And do try their soups!
Very disappointed, paid $30 for a lobster roll, got a broken stale bun and soggy flavorless fries.
