    I stumbled across Locals Seafood while visiting the WNC Farmers Market looking for veggies, and I'm…read morevery glad I did. It is a branch of Locals Seafood at the Raleigh Farmers Market. Almost all the markets in the Asheville area only carry frozen/defrosted seafood. I was born in a little fishing village in New England, three houses from the docks, and am used to buying fish directly from the boat, so frozen just wasn't getting me what I craved. Locals Seafood has its own trucks to bring in fish fresh from the boats on the North Carolina coast. This might lead to slightly higher costs than at the megamarts, but premium quality is always worth at least that, if not more. Over the last month I have tried their Tile Fish, Swordfish, Snapper and Black Drum, and every meal was wonderful, the fish was pristine fresh, firm and flaky. The staff is great, very friendly and attentive, and always willing to share cooking tips and tricks. the store is squeaky clean, all the fresh fish resting on ice, which they pack with your fish to keep it cold on the way home. I have subscribed to their weekly email announcing what is going to be available on the weekend. The most recent email listed: FRESH NC SHELLFISH Kinnakeeter Oysters In-Shell: Briny, Vegetal, Sweet, Medium Ocracoke Select Oysters In-Shell: Briny, Buttery, Medium Herring Shoal Oysters In-Shell Croatan Oysters In-Shell: Salty, Mineral, Large Shucked Oysters by the Pint Littleneck Clams In-Shell Large 10/20 ct.

    You can't find better seafood in Western NC. Cheaper, maybe but nowhere near the quality. Their…read moresalmon is the best I've ever had here and I use their scallops regularly for Ceviche that melts in your mouth.I get fish and chips as well as Clam Chowder regularly and it is always awesome. I special order Salmon roe periodically and it is always wonderful. Do yourself a favor and give them a try, you will be very happy you did.

    First visit here for lunch. Plenty of parking on mall lot. Walk-up order in store with limited…read morechoice of seating indoors but plenty covered outdoors. Orders are delivered to table. My partner ordered the lobster roll and was pleased with the the quantity of lobster, size and taste of bun, as well as the side salad that it comes with. I had the fish and chips. 3 decent sized pieces of a thinly coated fresh perfectly cooked cod. A good stack of crispy french fries and side of coleslaw. The plates are smallish rectangles.The fish sits stop the fries. Condiments were individual packets. What I wish I knew about eating the fish ahead of time. The thin battered crust broke apart very easily which led to the fish flakes falling out. Couldn't dip in tartar sauce without it disintegrating. It was a struggle to enjoy it the way I normally eat fish and chips. The trying to squirt out tiny amounts of ketchup for the fries was an additional pain. We enjoyed the seafood and will be back with my own bottle of ketchup and will ask for an additional plate to separate the fries from the fish.
