Ive known about this fish market since I was a kid. Moms used to take my siblings and me here as a kid. Decades later, I take moms here. She loves this place. They have fresh fish at great prices. They are open a few days a week. The fish is great. Ive read some comments about the place possibly being under new ownership/management. Moms echoed those sentiments prior to reading the reviews. She based her sentiments on the new faves in the front and back. If it is under new management/ownership, it has not affected fish quality and prices. The negative is where this fish market is located...which is Green Meadows district...a low income/high crime/gang-infested neighborhood. Directly across the street from the fish market is a liquor store where smokers/alcoholics/druggies/prostitutes loiter/frequent. So it's a good idea to keep an eye peeled on your environment while visiting his area. In terms of safety....my advice is to park in fish market parking lot. Roll up windows. Lock all doors. Make sure all valuables are in glove, under seat, non visible, or inside trunk area. read more

I grew up in this neighborhood in my young adult years. Recent visit to this community notice they NOW fry. Never B4. Have returned several times. Enjoyed the fish , shrimp, Oysters, prices are reasonable. Friendly staff. However, notice owners changed. Sold to Mexican s. Along with a recycle business on lot. Then at night another group on lot cooking street food. .....three businesses on one lot. Now for years blacks worked in the fish market. Wonder why the business was not sold to blacks ! I'm noticeing black people are becoming invisible in the business community..and home ownership. read more

Best fish, great friendly staff. I always get they buffalo, catfish, red snapper, shrimp, frog legs.. just the best fish ever.

i only get buffalo and since the business changed owers the quality of the buffalo is CRAP. It appears to me that they leave a lot of fat on for weight. I never tasted the horrible quilty of buffalo they sale with the previous owner. read more
