Just about the best fish market in the Bay Area. Sushi grade. We have been going there for forty years or so, and they have been more than reliable and accommodating. Never have tried to BS me into buying something more costly if they weren't convinced that it was superior. Very knowledgeable staff, little turnover. Please be aware that you generally get what you pay for in life. This is not a budget fish market. Not that supermarkets have bad stuff, but I happen to prefer paying for top quality when and if I can afford to. Their café is nice. Same top quality well prepared. Take home a quart of cioppino and a baguette. Life is good.
Its been awhile but I've been craving the turkey and avocado sandwich...today was the day with a side of sea salt chips. One of favorite things about this turkey Sammie is the balsamic vinegar, how plays so nicely with the turkey, avocado and arugula. Makes this a special one to try. Side note: I wished they had more side choices (e.g. Side salads, soups, fries) to round out the plate.
Pricey, but you know it's good quality & fresh seafood. Their fried shrimp are amazing. Super quick for 5pm on a Friday too! Plus the guys on the store side showed my little guy all the whole fish for sale and let him look in the lobster tank. Everyone was super nice.
Good food but smelled fishy from the seafood market attached. I almost left but the reviews were good so I decided to try it.. didn't get sick! But they gotta do something about the odor..
This place would usually get a 5 star review. I've been here many times and had awesome fresh seafood at reasonable prices. Last time I went the calamari was super salty and undercooked. Not sure what happened but it sucked.
