Really miss the old way things used to be. i'm gonna have to try tunaville or go back to point Loma. I also miss the old people they used to employ. But mostly it sucks that now you see fish out there when it shouldn't be out there anymore and just weird tail pieces left and it's not trimmed very well and there's not a lot of variety. Why go to the East Coast for Atlantic Farmed Salmon? Why keep weird pieces of the local fisherman's catch out there that make the whole thing seem like a bad deal?

There is only one food stall towards the back that sells prepared dishes. Lines gets very long but moves very fast. There also isn't many seating due to the small space. I came mainly for the food stall in the back which I believe their business name is called dockside fish.

Cool place, stopped by here with my brother yesterday to check out the fresh catch. We got there…read morearound 11:30 and parking was challenging. There's a lot very close by but parking is $8 ($5 if you get validation by making a $10 purchase in one of the shops at Seaport Village). A lot was sold out by the time we got there so I would recommend coming early in the morning. They had fishmongers scaling and cleaning fish off the pier and a wide array of fresh fish by the pound (prices were very affordable). When we were there, there was one "cooked foods" booth with clam chowder, ceviche, fish and chips, uni hand rolls, etc. Prices were fair but the line was long so we opted to skip it. Much of the menu was sold out by that time anyway. Food looked decent based on what I saw others eating. Overall it's worth a stop if you're in the area, want to do some shopping at Seaport Village, can find parking, etc. Otherwise I'm not sure it's worth a trip per se.

SO GOOD!!! Only bought fresh raw fish, did not try any of the cooked food, but what I got was all…read moreexcellent. If you do buy a whole fish and don't want to clean and gut it yourself, there is a stall at the very end of the pier that will do it for you for about $1/lb (up to $20/fish). I bought a big slab of bigeye tuna (4lbs), and some smaller (but still large) filets of ono and halibut (maybe 3 lbs each?), and 3 rock crabs (2 female,1 male -- loved that I could choose crab sex). Total cost of the fish was $76, and the crabs were $13. For that amount of fish, I think it's really great. I prepared the tuna as tataki and poke. I checked with the seller than the fish had been frozen on the fishing vessel to kill parasites so it was good to go. INSANELY delicious. If I were hosting a big party, I would absolutely go for a whole fish. The whole halibuts were about 7-14 lbs each (for $13/lb) and the whole tunas were about 20 lbs each (for $3/lb!!!) in Dec 2024.

I see the negative comments and they aren't necessarily wrong…read more It is expensive, it could be better, the parking lot is bad. But for us out of towners, on the way to the airport stopping off for as one of our friends put it... "one last plate of fish", we enjoyed our pitstop here and seafood lunch with a harbor view. Something we weren't going to get again any time soon in the desert. Fish and chips weren't my favorite since I had 10/10 ones at Pelly's in Carlsbad. Chowder wasn't particularly memorable. Clam strips were enjoyable. The sourdough and dungenous was nostalgic. Again, nothing was amazing but just enjoying our final seafood lunch with the view made everything taste better. While it's not a must visit spot, it's still worth checking out if you're not a local for "one last plate of fish".

After looking around the are, we ended up at Point Loma Seafoods for lunch…read more The parking lot: Very busy on the weekends! Look for the parking attendant walking around who will help you find a parking spot. We only had to wait about 4 minutes. The Restaurant/Market: The inside of this seafood market is pretty cool/ gives Seattle vibes with their displays of fresh fish over ice. They have a pretty big selection of food, daily specials, and catch of the day... and even some merchandise. You walk up and order at the counter and get a number. Where to eat? There's outside tables and tables upstairs on a balcony. We chose the balcony so we could look out over the harbor. We did see a Sea Lion swimming along while eating which was fun. It was relatively clean, very noisy, and it smells like fish there. What we ate: I ordered a fried seafood sampler platter with crab cakes, shrimp, and deep fried fish fillets. It was a bad choice. The fish tasted dry and old, it was greasy, and there was a lot of oil. My son got fish and chips and it tasted like mine, greasy, oily and not great. The fries were pretty awful (hard and tasted like they were re-fried to heat them up) My brother got the ahi salad which was just okay. The salad wasn't anything special, he said the fish tasted decent. My Mom got the clam chowder soup. It wasn't very flavorful and pretty watery. Overall- we were not impressed with the food at all. There's much better places to get fish in the are. The ambience of the area is great though, and it's lovely to be by the harbor!

Food is delicious & the fish is fresh! We've had better clam chowder, but it was still good…read more The gal at the register was great - answered all our questions/gave her opinion between choices we were struggling on. She didn't make us feel rushed despite the growing line behind us (we were truly trying to hurry, though, because of it). If you like sashimi, get their sashimi appetizer! We haven't been able to find a good place for sashimi since we moved to Southern California 5 years ago. Don't get me wrong, we've gotten good sashimi, but not cut thick & with good quality that is worth the price like this place. The price wasn't even as high as many of the other sashimi places we've tried! They give you only 2 fish choices on the plate, however. They have listed about 5 or 6 different kinds, but it depends on what is available. We had salmon & tuna. Salmon is my favorite, but their tuna was fantastic! First time I can say I may have liked it better than the salmon!! Their other dishes we had were also yummy. My daughter loves scallops & they were cooked to perfection. I don't usually like scallops because most places cook them till they're rubbery. Not this place! My husband had swordfish & I had the sea bass. Both were also delicious, but I think they may have mixed up which plate went to which person. Good thing, as we were trying each others' food, my daughter noted the slight texture difference between the two (I hadn't had a chance to taste them yet). Interestingly, swordfish usually has a vastly different texture than bass, but here, they cook it so well, there wasn't a huge amount of difference! That says something since swordfish is usually very "meaty." If my daughter hadn't noticed, I wouldn't have complained even though I was looking forward to the bass. I like flakier fish. However, the bass wasn't as flaky as I anticipated, but both were so tender, the mix-up wasn't a deal breaker. I don't know how they season the rice, but YUM! Even though I'm Asian, I'm not one who usually eats the rice. It's usually just a filler for me, & since I don't eat much, I'd rather eat the "other stuff" & usually leave most of the rice. Not here! I almost couldn't get enough of it, lol! So good!! At the end, we needed boxes. We had to ask two different waitresses since the first one we asked never came with them. It's an "order at the register then find a table" type of place, so there wasnt any "service" to speak of. Be prepared to stand in line - this place is popular for a reason! Parking is a challenge, but worth it. We definitely will be back!
