Beautiful fresh fish, mussels, and clams. Love coming here to make delicious dinners with my family.

~ Konrad L.

The new owners have done a great job of stepping up an already solid seafood market. They have added a take-out option and it is great. Fried clams, tuna melt, calamari, etc. All great options for a quick pickup- no seating.

~ Jim M.

Amazing fresh seafood! Fish & Chips are fabulous, fried calamari fresh and delicious, tuna tartare was out of this world! Take out meals or raw fish to cook at home. Highly recommend.
