Fried oysters are so good!!! Hubby likes the mixed seafood dinner as well. They need to find a better type of French fries brand in my humble opinion. read more

Marvin is a love of local residents. A lot of local love the seafood take out. This seafood market has fresh seafood in the market and cooking the seafood in the same spot. The order of the cook seafood is not in the store. It is on the side of cover side windows. The menu include garlic or fried seafood. We got the combo. This combo include fried seafood with crab, fish, shrimp, fries, and hush puppies. We add additional fried crab for additional $3.5. We like the crab because the meat is fresh. At the end they give us three crabs due to smaller size crab to make up the difference. We like the food. The seafood is fresh and good quality. read more

This is my go to spot when I'm in the mood for some fried blue crabs! I love the batter they use and the customer service is always great! Y'all should check this place out next time you're in the area, "always flavorful never flavorless." read more

A friend recommended Marvin's when they heard I've been on a hunt for blue crabs. The phone was answered quickly when I called, although the worker could hardly hear me when she answered because some man was hollering the background. She was helpful in discussing their options, and I ordered half a dozen blue crabs with hush puppies. The store is located in a sketchy part of town, so even though they have porch seating to eat, I would definitely get it to-go in the evenings. The building is very old and run down. Everyone I encountered in the store, from the man behind the fish counter, to the cashier, to the manager was super friendly. My food was ready by the time I had paid for it. I got home to discover that they had given me fried blue crabs instead of the garlic butter ones I thought I had ordered. No biggie though-I've always wanted to try them cooked this way. The batter was nice and light, and the crunchiness was an interesting balance to the soft crab meat. I did find most of the crabs to be very small and somewhat mushy inside unfortunately. The hush puppies were fresh and good however. I'll have to go back again to try the garlic butter crabs-and now I know to specify medium or large when I return. read more

Recently visited this restaurant and was knocked of my feet by the cuisine. The food is well seasoned and freshly cooked to order. The customer service is friendly and family oriented. There isn't really seating available so most orders will have to be takeout. I would recommend giving this Marvin's Oriental Fish Co. a try. read more

Good portions. 15 min wait on a Saturday afternoon. Reasonable prices. Food is not highly seasoned. Good for people who need to watch their sodium, but that's not me. They sell fresh fish and prepared meals. Be sure to ask for condiments before you leave. read more

I went there on a Saturday. After I entered the lady behind the counter said lock the door. It was locked by another customer. I place my order and after already waiting 10 minutes she tells me, "Oh we're closed". No one told me they were closed and it was early enough to place my order. The food is ok there, but with that type of service, they will never get another penny of my money. Anyone who asks me, I will not recommend them based on this incident. You never get a second chance to make a first impression. read more

Cooked to order. Food was very fresh, seasoned to perfection, and filling. Order this combo 2 days in a row read more

I am a pretty frequent customer there, have always had good to say about their live blue crabs. I understand businesses can make mistakes. This time there was no error I asked for 2 dozen of large crabs, evidently they must have ran out because when I got home to cook them there were 5 small crabs included and yet they still charged me 34.50 for large crabs. I'm normally able to to see the crabs before I buy them from the crates, for some reason the crates weren't out in front, they were bagging them in the back. Feeling jipped. read more

We love this little gem, and have been a few times. The smoked mullet is perfect every single time. They even have smoked salmon on occasion. And, Marvin is so friendly and helpful. read more

The satff is wonderful, including the owner who came to greet us at our table, the smoked mullet and shrimps were amazing including everything else, I highly recommend this place if you want to eat or simply buy fresh seafood! read more

The staff members are always nice, friendly, courteous and very professional. They do the best job of ensuring the fish are well cleaned; I have never had to go behind them and end up with fish in my kitchen sink. Be sure to go early on Fridays and Saturdays for best selections. read more

They always have good fresh seafood. You can buy some and cook at home or have them cook it for you, which is always delicious. My favs are the fried blue crabs and whole fried mullet read more

Was in Tampa FL for family visit and get together. Coming from out of town, Marvin's Oriental Fish Company was highly recommended to me. Food and service was OUTSTANDING. Prices were extremely reasonable for the exceptional service and delicious food that we received, and there was plenty of it!!! The fish, shrimp, and oh those crabs, and hush puppies were superbly seasoned. Everything tasted so fresh!! Everyone loved it!!! The icing on this exceptional delectable cake was the service. Food was ready, hot, and packed up to go when scheduled. One phone call did it all !!! This New Yorker will be back for Marvin's wonderful culinary experience. read more
