    Snapper, mmmmm!!
    Sue N.

    We drove down to the shrimp docks to get some shrimp and while there asked if they knew of anywhere we could buy crab and fish. They recommended the Crab Hut. We've driven by here a few times and was never tempted to go in. It's not a pretty place. But, we LOVE places like this and finally went in. People were coming in and out, it's obviously a popular place. Old, run down, dark, dilapidated, just our kind of place. But it looked clean and didn't smell horrible for a fish market. The mother & daughter working here were very nice. Offered lots of advise on how to cook the blue crabs. We bought 1/2 a dozen of the large ones for dinner. We also bought a red snapper which they fileted for us. The fish alone was $16, not cheap at all, but we got 2 good filets which were plenty for dinner. I like that they had a good variety of fish to choose from. Snapper, mullet, grouper, tilapia and I forgot the rest. So much better than Publix where it's salmon or tilapia! We won't buy the crabs again though. Just not enough meat on blue crabs and too much work to get the little you do get. They were good, so if you like this kind of crab, this is the place to get them. We'll be back to try some other kind of fish for sure.

    Crabs were fresh, full and delicious. Now that Seabreeze Crabs is gone I needed a new crab man and I found it at the Crab Hut!

    I stumbled onto a lil hidden gem in the Tampa area for you fresh-seafood buyers it's named "Ocean…read moreLobster Key West" Seafood Market. After searching for fresh seafood in the retail/wholesale category on the Internet this little gem came up. The place was a classic hole in the wall find. When I got to the plaza, didn't see the name of the market so I asked around and found out it was around back of the building. I walked in one of the first things that I noticed was the place was neat, and I didn't notice that classic "seafood smell " we all know about. The two owners were very gracious and showed me around. I called prior to coming there and ask them for fresh whole grouper, snapper and lobster tails. Upon arriving, the owners proceeded to open up freezer cabinets and showed me an abundance of snapper and grouper varieties in the whole fish category. Looking at the eyes of the fish, you could tell they were super fresh, just the way us seafood buyers like them. I did have them fillet, scale, and butterfly some of my fish while I was there. I also purchased pre- frozen lobster tails had them the next night for dinner absolutely So tasty.. Here is my pro tip of the day : The afternoon I was there, I saw the sign they had a GROUPER FISH SANDWICH with fries and a drink for $10. (The only thing I'm missing is a picture). You cannot get fresh grouper w/ lettuce, tomato, and onion (on a bun toasted) with fries and drink for $10 ANYWHERE I KNOW OF (ask them for a bit of the homemade spicy hot sauce) tell them Jeff P. sent you "thank me later".

The first time, I was searching online for a place where I could get some oxtail, and I came across this store with a 4.7-star rating. I decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad I did! More importantly, I can't believe I didn't know about this place during the 25 years I've lived here in Tampa. From now on, this is my go-to spot for all my meat and seafood! The prices were unbelievable, especially for the amount of meat I received, and the quality was second to none. Not only did I get my oxtail, but I also picked up some goat meat at an outstanding price! I also learned they offer a 5% military discount for veterans during the last week of every month, which is another great reason to support them. I want to give a special shout-out to the owner, Bill, who took great care of me at the register. He made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in, told me about all the great deals they offer, and truly treated me like family. I also want to recognize Nicole and Shanta for providing outstanding customer service while helping me choose from their huge selection of meats. I think it was Nicole who told me I needed to buy more oxtail, but I didn't listen... and guess what? I had to come back the very next day because she was absolutely right! Thank you, Nicole and Shanta, for serving me with smiles, enthusiasm, and genuine kindness. Great customer service is hard to find these days, and you both absolutely knocked it out of the park. I can't wait for my next visit. You guys have earned a customer for life. If you're looking for quality meats, fresh seafood, great prices, and even better customer service, do yourself a favor and check them out. You guys ROCK, and you're second to none! -- Lenny Woods

The woman answering the phone was very pleasant, and told me they did, then without me even asking, went and checked the price per pound. Since $30 seems to be the going price for a pound of mediums this year (2021), I headed out. I never would have found the place if it weren't for my navigation system. I still went past it, then had to circle back. Inside was clean and bright, and surprisingly, not fishy-smelling. You order whatever you want at the counter, which is backed by boxes and boxes of frozen seafood, apparently for those who want large quantities, or restaurants. I was served promptly, and the man was very helpful. They were also well stocked on items you would need to cook seafood, like seasonings, etc. Check-out was easy, and the woman was even like - oh, are you the one who called? They have their own parking lot, but it's a bit beat up, and people seem to park every which way. There is a food truck in the parking lot which cooks up fresh seafood, and seafood boils. My game plan is to try that option next visit.
