I had a feast every day of my birthday week. I was inspired by the cooking demonstrations on the Salt Water Market livestreams. Nothing can compare to fresh shrimp. The flavor of fresh shrimp is so much more superior to the jumbo frozen shrimp that I have in my freezer. My New York Strip was better than Ruth's Chris or Morton's. I need a little practice with the tenderness of my lamb chops but the flavor was there. I experimented with scampi butter, Cajun and other seasonings.

Be on your toes about what you'd like though. They don't do 1/2 lb of anything as well. You can order fish to go or have it cooked on sight. So we had 1lb of croaker cleaned and fried. 1 lb of large shrimp cleaned, deveined and fried. An order of fried okra and fries. The fish and shrimp were seasoned and fried to perfection. We sat and ate the food in the car!

Finally, we were all refused service because the associate said they were closed. The open sign was still on, and according to the hours sign, they are open until 6 pm on Wednesdays. The two individuals already inside said they were waiting to be serviced and were not told the market was closed. The owner was not at the market, so there was no explanation for allowing the customer in while it was closed. If they were closed, the open Sign should have been off and the entrance locked.

Half seafood market, half Asian grocery, half asian fast food (guess that's three halves but you…read moreget the drift). We stumbled on it from seeing posts on a facebook group. Definitely easy go-to alternative to a larger Asian grocery like Seven Moon. The seafood looked fresh and from seeing the amount of orders on a random Monday morning, looks like they fry up a lot of fish...however, I didn't try it. Lots more frozen inventory than what was on ice. The little kitchen they have was a nice surprise and enjoyed the Salt & Pepper Squid. Definitely a place for take-out as they only have a couple of stools to sit and eat. If you're a chicken wing person, this is most probably the place for a good fried wing!

The foods are typical Chinese and deep fried fish. The difference between this place and a typical Asian takeout is their specials on Friday. It varies depending on what they cook that day, but I was told it usually runs out by 10:30am. Their specials are only $6. Definitely would recommend this place on Friday, but get there early or their specials will be gone.

It's only him, and he is taking orders, cooking, packing, and so on. The place is clean and has a few seats for waiting. There's also fish on ice for purchase. I ordered the flounder and shrimp, which were, of course, fried to order. I enjoyed the flavor of the flounder and especially the shrimp. The breading was good, and everything was fried well. The fries were cooked hot, and they are crinkle cut. I enjoyed the food, including the hush puppies, coleslaw, and potato salad. The lunch special comes with tea.  This side of town could use a solid fish spot like this one. The location is kind of tricky. Park on the side of the building. There is a sign, but you do have to be on the lookout for it. It's across from the pet hospital over there.
