It's hard to
tell what Gary Royce is proudest of: his Key West roots, his special
salads iq option or his favorite football team.
All are in evidence at the small seafood store Royce and his wife,
Martha, own and run behind Arlington's Lee Heights Shops.
Fresh fish and shellfish
once were the only products at the shop, where the walls are sprinkled
with colorful mementos of Royce's Florida home town and a blue-and-silver
Dallas Cowboys logo sits on a countertop. But
several years ago, Royce began building a repertoire of prepared
foods. Now his salads, soups, sandwiches and platters fill an ever-changing
menu that, he estimates, accounts for more than a quarter of his
sales.
His smoked scallop salad
($15.99 a pound) features pleasantly firm bay scallops, red bell
pepper and scallions in a tangy dressing. Royce says the shrimp
vinaigrette ($16.99 a pound) is a big seller, but we preferred the
shrimp salad: plump Florida gulf shrimp in a dressing spiked with
Dijon-style mustard, garlic and Worcestershire sauce ($15.99 a pound).
Calamari salad ($13.99 a pound) is good: lots of fresh squid with
a bright, vinegary dressing.
Royce says he makes the
soups from scratch, beginning with homemade fish stock. The lobster
bisque ($6.99 a pint) is a winner: creamy, lobstery and with a peppery
bite to cut the richness. Grouper soup ($6.99 a pint) is filled
with generous chunks of the fish.
Sandwiches
($7.95 to $11.95) are grilled or deep-fried to order and served
on a substantial but not-too-firm sub roll. Our warm salmon sub
featured a sizable fillet, nicely iqoption seasoned and cooked. An additional
$2.99 buys you two sides: cut-to-order french fries and light-on-the-mayonnaise
coleslaw.
Just about every type
of fish in the store can be cooked for a fish platter ($11.99 to
$17.99), which includes the fries and slaw. Portions are large:
Our blackened rockfish platter ($15.99) weighed in at over a pound.
There is just one dessert:
Martha's Key lime pie, available only as a whole pie ($16). The
graham-cracker crust is forgettable, but the filling is the real
deal: tart, tangy and a perfect finish to a seafood meal.
The store also sells
its foods in quantity for parties -- such as, say, for the Super
Bowl. "Dallas versus New England," Royce predicted before
last weekend's playoff game. Ah, well. There's always next year.

Diner's Review
Owner Gary Royce brings the best of the sea to Beltway-bound drones
via a variety of daily soups (crab, grouper and New England clam
chowder), homemade salads (grilled tuna, smoked mussels, shrimp
vinaigrette) and robust specialty platters (conch fritters, sauteed
salmon, fried, soft-shell crabs). Virtually all the fresh seafood
on hand can be made into a generously sized sub of your choosing.
Their tiny shack off Lee Highway is just big enough to house a wraparound
seafood counter—Royce says he buys direct from fishmongers
located from Boston to Key Largo—and a handful of picnic tables
out back. The standard menu includes a slew of sandwiches (most
under $10) and mixed seafood platters (hovering between $12 and
$15), plus a number of daily specials. ~ Reston, VA

I have eaten here many
times and Gary and Martha's (Owners) seafood never disappoints.
I like the fact that it is family run and has been for a couple
of decades now. Gary is a master at preparing flavorful dishes and
my favorite is the crab cakes...no wait, the blackend grouper...hmmm,
maybe the fried shrimp platter...it's all so good!! They have a
patio in the back which is ideal for hangin' out with friends and
eating some great food. It is only on Fridays though - warm weather
permitting - that they are open past 7 pm (until 9 pm), so take
advantage of it because it's worth the unique ambiance. By the way,
Gary is quite the character! Enjoy! ~ Arlington, VA

Editorial Review
This is the place to come for the best crabmeat soup around. According
to enthusiasts, "it tastes like the shore." In our opinion,
it doesn't get much better.
