The Smokehouse

Hand-selected. Small-batch. Never outsourced.

Every pound of Ivy City product is cured, smoked, and sliced in our custom smokehouse in Washington, DC. Our Smoke Masters — one of whom is a Michelin-awarded Chef — have been smoking seafood since 1984, with a combined 70+ years of experience between them. That's the widest variety of seafood produced in the US smoked-seafood industry, all hand-selected and made in small batches.

Only the freshest seafood, hardwood smoke, and all-natural ingredients make it into each recipe. No chemicals. No artificial colorings. No private-label shortcuts. The salmon we serve at Tony & Joe's is the same salmon we ship to your loading dock, and every product traces back through FishPrint to the vessel that caught it.

Recognition followed. Restaurant Association of Metropolitan Washington Best Regional Food Producer/Manufacturer, 2018. American Masters of Taste U.S.A. Taste Champion, 2019. Chefs who tour the smokehouse tend to switch over the next week — that's the pitch.
