Bought a huge piece of black cod shoulder among the collars for sale at $5.99 lb I got 4 huge steaks to sear for about $18! Total meal cost for 4 including all ingredients bought at ABC was $7.50 per person. Best that Uwajimaya! read more

I recently purchased lobster from ABC Seafood Company, and the quality was outstanding. The lobster was incredibly fresh, with firm meat and a clean, sweet flavor that really stood out once cooked. You can immediately tell this is a company that takes pride in sourcing and handling their seafood properly. The staff was knowledgeable and helpful, answering questions about sizing and preparation, which made the buying experience easy and stress-free. Everything was well-packed and handled with care, giving me full confidence in the product I was receiving. The Rotary Club was picking up my lobster and the company didn't charge me until after the order was picked up. The took my word I was going to pay. Get character from them. If you're looking for high-quality lobster--whether for a special occasion or just a great seafood dinner--ABC Seafood Company is absolutely worth the visit. I'll definitely be coming back for future seafood purchases. read more

I agree with the one star reviews. I walked in and there were no other customers in the store. Not at all helpful when I asked if they had clams. Was told I had to be more specific (not sure how much more specific I had to be) and the guy waved me off to go look over there. Considering nothing was marked being directed to "go look over there" was unhelpful. I left and won't be going back. read more

Very clean, good prices and great seafood ! The seafood all looked clean and quality. They also sold a few other things too. read more

Really excited (and happy) this place exists. ABC Seafood Company is my #1 choice for Dungeness crabs which I can't get fresh (live) in Colorado at all. I also look for tasty saltwater fishes here and am never disappointed. Just remember it's not their fault that they sell out! If you want to enjoy the freshest seafood and have no idea what you are doing buy whatever you want here and then take it to Yan Zi Lou (just a short drive away) and they will cook it for you anyway you'd like (yes, there's a cost but you are having a professional do all the work and all you have to do is eat it).

ABC for live crabs!!! They are open Christmas Day. They will be open on New Year's and NYE too, they said they may close earlier on those days but will be open in the AM for sure. We got Dungeness crab, they also have Norwegian King crabs too. Note some pictures from last year were market prices back then... read more

Bought three large dungees for New Year's Eve. Freshest crab I've had, not from the pot. Wild caught, reasonably priced and a real treat. I can't wait to try the rest of the seafood offered. Well done! read more

Legit Seafood market that has been in Portland for a few decades now I believe. Everything is pretty fresh, and the tanks are well maintained. Various types of shrimp (my favorite) as well as fish. For cheaper you can go with the frozen options which are still pretty darn good. A lot of people who make hot pot at home shop here, so that is why you'll also see a variety of vegetables and hot pot soup bases for your convenience. Employees here speak English, Cantonese, and Mandarin, so communication issues should be minimal. Cash, Debit, Credit all accepted. Crawfish is bomb too and a great item for the whole squad. read more

This is why I moved to Portland! Growing up in the desert, I never got fresh seafood like this store has. I was happier than a kid in a candy shop. So much variety. Mostly fresh & alive but also a great freezer selection of fish and seafood. The prices were so good I went back for a 2nd round after they rung me up. One day, I'll get one of those Norwegian King Crabs!! read more

The place is a little rustic but the have a very large variety of seafood that look healthy and delicious. Great seafood store!!!

The best fish market in Portland, this place has a good selection of fresh seafood with a touch of asian style.

We came here to buy live dungeness crab, they have a few huge holding tanks, which the crabs are separated by size. They even have a separate tank for 1 claw crabs for a couple of bucks cheaper, i thought that was fair that they'd sell the damaged crabs for cheaper, i'd be kinda pissed off if i paid full price for a crab that was missing a claw. They also have live spot prawns, geoduck clams and lobster and some fish which I'm guessing changes by the season. There are also some other fresh fish on ice and a small selection of asian produce. The owners were helpful and the crabs were delicious. read more

Freshest clams and live dungeness crab! Also best prices anywhere. Never disappointed

My family has been coming here for years for fresh live seafood. Their prices are more than reasonable for crab, oysters, clam, crawfish, and other delicacies. Every couple weeks I stop by to get a dozen Pacific oysters (for less than $15!) - they are huge and perfect for grilling. read more

ABC is the only place I buy fresh seafood. We buy live Maine lobsters and crabs every year for Thanksgiving. They are always fresh and good. The meat has always been very good. We also get oysters here and clams in the summer. The store is small, but has plenty of selection and good prices. The store has a small parking lot in the back. The people there always pick us very good crabs and lobster. They also have a lot of live fresh fish as well as a wide selection of clams. read more

If you are looking for crab this is the only place to go!. When I visited I must of seen over 500 crabs in various holding tanks, separated by weight size, they even had a separate tank for one armed crabs. All the prices were way below the grocery stores. They even had a large tank with over fifty live king crabs. They do also sell fresh fish, clams, oysters and other yummy items from the sea. read more

Been coming here for years. Always good quality live seafood. Reasonably priced. It's small and the parking is very limited so watch your step read more

A fine place for fresh seafood, particularly live Dungeness crab. ABC offers larger crabs, smaller crabs, crabs with a missing claw, all in different tanks and selling at different prices. ABC also offers live lobsters, clams, mussels, oysters. lots of live fish. We go here for crabs and haven't been disappointed. The store is small but the staff is more than willing to help and answer any questions you might have. read more

14 years since my first review. Still fresh, live seafood. Still great prices. Still bringing to SE PDX. Great spot!

SO disappointed in this place. Once again I guess you can't assume that just because 74 people on Yelp love something, that you will too. Dark, dirty, and no salmon? Really? This shop basically sells crab, crab and oh.. crab. Crawfish if you like that too. Not at all what I had hoped for after reading the reviews here. Plus it's just off of Powell.. ugh. I'll keep on the hunt to find a great seafood shop in Portland. read more

I feel I have to start this review by stating I haven't been to ABC Seafood in probably close to 8 years. That being said, the only reasons I have not, is because I am (at this moment) unfortunately the only seafood lover in my household, and I now live in SW Portland. In the past, I drove all the way from my house in West Linn to ABC Seafood at least 1x a month. The quality, price, and wide selection of live exoskeleton seafood creatures, fish and shells were unbeatable. More than worth the drive! I'm getting hungry just thinking about all the lovely stews, and stir-fry dishes I would make after a trip to ABC. Yum! 2017 #15 read more

Best place for seafood-great people and very helpful. And what can I say, love all the live seafood in tanks-I feel I'm taking a visit to the Aquarian read more

Super rude staff but excellent crab / reasonable pricing. I had a horrible shopping experience and don't like how I was treated. The experience was bad enough for me to write a bad review a month later - but the crab was good enough for me to come back at least 1 more time. You can't deny good product but I wish the staff was friendly read more

Like a shop in Chinatown NYC is correct; has a good selection of fish and made me remember my good fish markets back east. The fish was fresh, the place kept fairly clean for a fish shop and the staff was fine to me; very on point and they run their business well. Appreciate that they sell other basic extras; some veggies, fruits, (saved me a trip to another store). Got 2 pounds of the prettiest, fresh whole bass and a pound a cod fish from here. Took my butt back on the #9, (frequent bus line on Powell, good for those of us who don't drive). I was just about ready to give up; catch a Greyhound bus up to Seattle, Just to get some fish, (besides salmon and tilapia). ABC Seafood was recommended by a guy on the bus and Glad I went. As I was leaving, lady was pouring out a big bin of fresh crawfish; I will be back! read more

Great fresh live seafood. The store is clean and the staff is great.

Prepare yourself for an exotic adventure into an Asian market with live seafood galore. The crabs are delicious!

I've lived in port as my whole life and didn't know this place existed!! I love bringing my seafood home alive, it doesn't get any fresher and the prices are great too! read more

If you listen to the reviews about ABC then you may think that you will walk into a store full of grumpy fishmongers, but this simply is not the case! I went bc a friend recommended ABC and I was greeted by a bunch of very friendly, knowledgeable people, I purchased fresh Dungeness Crab, it was very fresh and healthy. I have done my fair share of crabbing and know good crab. To be honest it was the most flavorful crab my family has ever tasted! Nice people, great prices, great seafood, Highly recommended! They have more than seafood too! Enjoy! read more

I have been going to ABC for 20+ years to get fresh crab. The prices have gone up in the years but the quality is still the same!!! Very nice people working there as well. Give them highest recommendation read more

Razor clams live and kicking, $3.99 a pound, three for $5.00. pick your own. my style. No language problems for me. They let me pick my own and gave me extra ice... They ship....Their razor clams had a rubber band aroud each one, I guess to keep the shells closed...Bondage for clams? read more

Affordable, fresh, abundant seafood. The people are super helpful and friendly. I picked up 12 pounds of head in shrimp for a shrimp boil and they were fantastic. I'll be getting all my seafood here! read more

SHOPPERS BEWARE!! Yesterday I went in as usual and have been a regular shopper for the last 10 years. I bought 4 pounds of clams. When I got home I discovered they had ROCKS MIXED IN WITH MY CLAMS!! About a pound of rocks was in with the 4 pounds of clams I purchased. The rocks were the same size, color and shape as the clams. I bet they figured people wouldn't come back to dispute the rocks for a few dollars. How can they knowingly look at their regular customer in the eye and ask them if they wanted more clams and give them rocks? This business is dishonest and shady. VERY BAD BUSINESS THAT CHEATS CUSTOMERS!!! read more

People were very rude when I went in . And it wasn't even busy. I would understand if it was busy and they can't help me out just yet but all I asked was a simple question about where the tilapia came from and all they could say was if you don't want to buy it don't ask questions..... Wow really ... Now thats quality service read more

As FRESH as it gets...shrimp, clams, oysters, mussels, and fish...all are still swimming (or at least squirming) around! Let's face it, ABC is awesome and it really doesn't even compare to Freddie's, Albies, or others. ABC is like wandering down to the pier in SF and looking your dinner straight in the eye! read more

I've been coming here for years and recommending it for just as long. I honestly thought I had already written a review for here, but when I checked in yesterday lo and behold, no review, so here it goes. And if you want to make fun of me for forgetting that I had yet to do a review of this place..."Hey, I can blame partying in the '70's, what can you blame things on?" I have always read with interest the reviews people have written about ABC that they were treated rudely, yaddah, yaddah, yaddah, sorry folks you just don't understand the culture, I could go on about that but nobody says it better than Yen D. in her review, so with apologies to Yen and giving her full credit I offer you this quote: "Asian culture doesn't give a shit about coddling you like a little bitch and making sure your overly sensitive, politically correct white feelings as its #1 priority." Just about sums it up, don't you think? Really the selection here is at times phenomenal, and prices I have found to be the best in town. Like yesterday, they had three types of live crab, dungenous, snow and softshell blue crab, they had many types of live fish, shrimp, prawns and oodles of different shellfish, it was like shopping in an aquarium. And no, they didn't kiss my white little ass, but they did hurriedly offer to help in broken English, which is fine with me. The place was jam packed with dozens of customers, busy, harried, brusk, a little rude and I was almost the only non-Asian there. It was a decidedly cultural experience, which I enjoyed. The shop is really quite small and is stuffed floor to ceiling with aquariums filled with all types of live critters, selection varies seasonally and it is always a joy to come here and find something I didn't expect. I noticed they are adding on so I look forward to increased capacity in the coming months. read more

Super excited to find an Asian Market with Thai Chilis. When you first move to a new place being able to find the comforts of home can be difficult. Especially when home comes with a certain spice level that's beyond just a number category. I'm talking that good homemade fire in your belly that's passed down from generation to generation. So I was thrilled to see some super fresh seafood that looked good enough to eat there. I grabbed some Thai basil, chilis, and fresh shrimp with heads to whip up something my Mama taught me! Glad to see good culture in Portland! read more

Nothing says fresh fish like watching it being killed in front of your very eyes. Definitely not for the squeamish but if you want some fresh tilapia, sidle on up to the tank that holds them and point to what you want. It will be caught, killed, and gutted for you before you can even ask "HOW MUCH?!" Last time I bought one it was so fresh it was still having last minute muscle spasms in my car on the ride home. As barbaric as I'm making it sound, I do have a heart and was screaming my lungs out at the possibility it could still be alive. But oh man, steamed tilapia in ginger/soy-well worth it. This is the place to go for fresh clams, oysters, crabs, lobsters...whatever your seafood loving heart desires. Forget the frozen crap sitting on ice at your local grocer! Yum, just writing this review makes me want to drive over and get some fresh clams for dinner tonight! read more

Whenever I'm back in Portland, there's things that I always HAVE to do. Like eat at Jin wah, have an Oregon burrito, shop cuz it's sales tax free, visit coffee people, eat at my favorite conveyor belt sushi joints, etc.. Most importantly, eat lots of fresh seafood!! We cannot afford that luxury in the Midwest. I mean I can afford it but there is no ocean people. Aaaack. Sushi just isn't the same and it's all smothered in a bunch of spicy mayo and tempura crumbs, a bunch of bullshit to mask that oh not so freshness. So gross. "Look ma I'm eating sushi! But it has to be drenched in spicy mayo, fruit, fake crab, hair extensions, glitter, hot dogs and fried batter for me to be able to stomach it, and to mask that it may not be all that fresh!" um yeah. Anyhow, this is the go to place for my family for fresh, live seafood for years now. Dungeness crab still alive and kicking? They're here! Fresh plump oysters. All for great prices. My dad makes the best chili and ginger dungeness with the crab he gets from here. We also like grilling oysters and on the half shell having it with spicy chili sauce on the side. So good. This summer, we have had live oysters galore here. It's perfect summer westcoast food and my parents know I want as much fresh seafood as I can have when I'm back home. We always go here first before going to other stores for fresh seafood because they have better prices here. Until next time west coast... and do I dare go after "fresh" oysters in the midwest? As if! read more
