This place is still the real deal. I am so lucky to live close to the gem of a restaurant. This place is for seafood lovers.Alaska Snow Fish is spectacular, the onion rings are spectacular and they are more amazing food here. I can't stay away. The tomato and zucchini was a let down.The service is quick and easy. This old school restaurant runs with military precision and execution.They have a senior menu on their website to save money, so by all means check that out too. You can't go wrong coming here.

This review is kind of difficult because I'm a bit split on my opinion. I'm going with four stars because the good in my opinion outweighs any negative. The first thing you'll notice when you pull up in the parking lot is that the building looks pretty dated and it is. There's a sign when you walk in that says welcome, established in the 1950s. That's impressive, but it also shows in a lot of the areas that have not been maintained well. The staff was all very friendly. My server was great and it only took about 5 to 10 minutes to get my food. I went on Saturday around 3 PM and it was not very busy. The menu was easy to flip through and not overbearing with too many options. I chose fried fish and fried shrimp and then I also got french fries and the stewed tomatoes on the side. The fish was very delicious and the shrimp were as well. The fries are your standard crinkle and the stewed tomatoes were delicious. There's lots of variety of seafood and options to meet anybody's pickiness.Overall, I thought it was a good experience, but they definitely need to do some work making it look nicer and newerPositive: Food and Service Negative: Ambiance, decor, dated building and furnishings

My boyfriend and I came in hungry and we were immediately greeted and sat by the friendly hostess. The restaurant was clean and decorated very nicely for the holidays. We ordered fried green tomatoes which came out hot, crispy, and fast! We ordered the captains platter and the hungry man's platter as our main course which was delicious as well! Thank you so much for a great service and a great experience!

I just want to let anyone who has the chance to come to this locally family owned restaurant to NOT PASS IT UP! Amazing food! Love the Scrod! the chowder is also amazing! comes out piping hot and full of flavor! I always have such a hard time picking an appetizer because they are ALL SO GOOD! Last time here I got the captain and it was so fresh and I had to pack up the rest! Amazing food! Great Prices and the owner is the sweetest! The staff makes you feel like they know u personally! I will be back next week

I worked at the Goose Creek Rd. location some 35 or so years ago, now that location has since closed and what is left is this one on Bardstown Rd. When we went inside, one couldn't help but to go back in time....when things flowed more smoothly. I can imagine the place hasn't been updated in quit some time. But its the food I am after. You know, good "Seafood" places are hard to come by. Hungry Pelican seemed to deliver some pretty good seafood. It was around my birthday when my wife suggested fish since she knows I really love it. She also suggested Hungry Pelican since I mentioned it one Sunday afternoon while sitting on the patio. I ordered the clams, she got the Fish Sandwich. We also tried the Fried Pickles which were pretty good! The fish was cooked just right! The clams were fresh and tasted great! The service was fantastic! My wife mentioned it was my birthday to the server, then the server offered us a free desert! I opted for the turtle cheesecake which was very good! They have a "Children's" menu and a "Senior's" Menu also, which unfortunately I now qualify for...lol

Hadn't eaten here in 20 years. Now I remember why. Waiter took our order, 35 minutes before we got our food. People next to us, came in, ordered, ate and left before we got our food. 4 of us dining. 3 warm dinners, one piping hot which indicates they missed a meal, cook it and left 3 under the heat lamp. Food was okay, but honestly, Moby Dick is a better value and more fish. Waiter took our order, never came back to check on us or get refills. Had to flag him down to get our check. It will be another 20 years (a least) before I come back.

For a local fish spot, this one is pretty great. They are one of the few "fish houses" they offer non-fried options. They have everything from cod to salmon to oysters. I always get mine grilled, and here, it was prepared and executed perfectly. Flakey, juicy, tender. I got the cod platter on this visit. It comes with an ample amount of food. You'll definitely leave with a doggie bag. For my sides, I got the kale and green beans. Oh so good! I could have made a meal of these! I'll definitely be back! The ambiance is what you'd expect of a local, family-owned spot. It's not fancy. Wear whatever you'd like, I'd say. They're welcoming, humble and personable. The decor is very much that of the inside (or outside) of a boat. Or, what you'd see at a beachside fish place. The outside looks nothing like the inside though. The service reminds me of what you'd get at a local diner where the patrons are the same every day, they all know each other, and their time to be polite has passed. It's not that they're rude. They're lovely. It's just that there is no pomp or fluff. Very to the business of getting your order, serving it, and moving on- all with a smile and kindness. I recommend it. Get that cod! And the clam chowder seems to be popular, too!

We went to Hungry Pelican the weekend before last than eight inside. I did a pick up last week as well. The food was absolutely fabulous both times. I'm very picky about good fish. They offer great fish and they cook it very well. I've tried several things there and it's always delicious.
