Pearson's Port is a hidden gem in OC, known for its fresh and affordable crabs. The crabs are always freshly caught, and customers can buy them to steam with beer, lemon, and water. It is recommended to call ahead and ask about the day's selection. The store also offers a variety of seafood, including John Dory, which is hard to find elsewhere. The market has a charming, old-time atmosphere and good service. Customers often praise the freshness of the seafood, mentioning salmon, yellowtail, halibut, shrimp, spiny lobster, and scallops. Many appreciate that it is a family business with friendly and helpful staff. The seafood is caught at the port, sometimes by the owner’s boat or local fishermen, ensuring high quality and freshness. While the selection of fish can be limited in winter and prices are slightly high, Pearson's Port remains a great place to find fresh, high-quality seafood in OC.
