Review The Seafood Collective - Albany

Third time coming to this place, great for kids, extensive menue and good environment. The best selection was the Seafood Platters which were great. This place is the best Gourmet Fish & Chips. The grilled prawns were just so incredibly delicious. Staff were great and will definitely come here again.

Was pleasantly surprised! Drive past a lot and keep meaning to try - it's a bit of a weird location. Super yummy fish burger and fries from the express lunch menu. Surroundings are really nice and staff friendly. Will definitely be back!

Great friendly service. The seating was pleasant and the interiors are clean and refreshing. Would want to dine in next time I'm here.

Eaten here twice and both times been blown away by the freshness of the food and the staff being so nice!!

I am not a big fan of fish but this shop made me a huge fan of chippy! Clean and crispy. 10/10

Absolutely amazing seafood and service! Loved it and will be going back

Delicious takeaway. Very freshly prepared and very tasty. Kind of Mediterranean style. Enjoyed that very much. Thank you

The Food and Staff here Great. Good selection of all types of seafood and salads. I have found I possibly have an allergy to some types of seafood ( shellfish ). But there's such a good selection here there's always something I like to eat. Love the Snapper and Salad.

I absolutely love the way they make the food here it's not the same as other LJS. The staff and owner is so nice and friendly... the quality of food is 5 star. Thanks for making a great meal everytime I get something.. Highly highly highly recommend!!!!!

Absolutely delicious and great staff had the salt and pepper squid and fish burger, chips were awesome too. Highly recommend and will be back

Not your run of the mill fish and chip shop. Ika mata raw fish is beautiful. Battered fish light and crispy not at all oily and greasy. Grilled squid was also amazing not to be compared to your local takeaways this place is the bomb. Highly recommend

Shoestring fries are so delicious. I eat here everyweek sometimes twice a week. Fish(crumbed tarakihi) and chips is what I normally get. Fish tacos are good too, they have a nice chipotle mayo and nice and crunchy hoki bites(?). Place always looks clean and staff is always friendly and answer all my questions(usually about the fish and ingredients they use) which I appreciate. I will keep coming back as long as I live in Albany.

Beautiful food and great service - we were even given complimentary drinks. Will definitely be back! The tasting platter was amazing!

Delicious food, friendly staff. Definitely would recommend to anyone who loves seafood. Will be back again <3 got given complimentary drinks :D cheers!

AMAZING FOOD. Love the prices too and the sharing platter is so packed. Loved it and will definitely get more asap. Already craving some as i'm writing this.

First time trying this place today and the food was absolutely delicious! Definitely worth the price and the customer service is awesome. Definutely a satisfied customer will be back again :)

Had dinner here the other night <br/>Place was very clean and tidy <br/>And the staff were awesome <br/>We all ordered the seafood platter !!<br/>Wow what can I say it was super tasty & fresh <br/>We definitely be back soon <br/>Thanks

I popped into to their new branch last week and ordered the family box..<br/>The food quality was great, staff were super friendly and overall great experience!<br/>It was amazing my wife and kids loved it..<br/>Perfect kiwi Sunday at the beach with fish n chips!<br/>100% recommended!

We had the seafood platter for 2. Excellently seasoned. Will return.

Excellent service and food. The seafood platter is a must. Mussels and Prawn is superb. The fish and chips is nice too.

Delicious food, well presented and very tasty! We got snapper and chips, Tarakihi and chips plus shared a prawn taco. The house made tartare sauce was DELICIOUS.

Top notch fish n chips. Something a little different.

Bye LJs 🤘🏻<br/>The Seafood Collective truly delivered 🥰 was in for a Sunday treat and boy, these guys don’t deserve that 3.3/5 on Zomato 🤣 minimum 4/5 at all time, since i’m in such a good mood and starving, they went way above the grading system.<br/>Ranging from crazily good home made tartare sauce, fresh and juicy scrumptious fish and legendary garlic sauce on their butterfly prawn. Their grilled squid is gooood and I haven’t tasted this kind of squid since God knows when 😭 <br/>Anyhow, give this local biz some support and flood their store with orders cause IT IS GOOD 🤘🏻<br/>P/s: their spread looks real good but I could not resist so only could take pics of the takeaway 😂

A new seafood eatery next to Albany’s caltex station. The place is very clean and the service was excellent. Food came out fast. We had the platter taster for 2 and for us, there was enough food for 3 people. A good range of food included in the platter & all were cooked well and tasty. Would recommend this place to people

New seafood place in Albany behind the Caltex. (Ex L.J.S) Clean, well decorated in a minimalist fashion. Had the Fish n Chips and wife had the Prawnamari meal. Both really liked the fries, Lemon Pepper seasoning really goes well with the seafood. My fish was well cooked in a crispy breading and plenty of Tarter sauce to go along with it. The wife's prawns and calamari were also well cooked on the grille and well seasoned. Took about 10 minutes , but the service was decent.  Under $50 with drinks for 2

Used to love LJs would come here so often, tried the seafood collection and prefer LJs by far! Customer service was better with the seafood collection compared but food was just not as good, fish tasted frozen and the slaw in the burger was very wet which made the whole burger very soggy. Chips didn’t have any lemon pepper on it either which was my favourite! Very sad to see LJs no longer

Great food, love the feel inside and helpful staff.  The platters looked amazing though I had the tacos, which I really enjoyed.  Will go back to try the platters though!!  Thanks The Seafood Collective.

Very friendly staff and good value food. We made our own platter which is way more than enough food for two people for less than $30. This place is very new and atmosphere is great! Would definitely come back. Highly recommend!
