We were in the store last week and purchased swordfish that was recommended by the person working behind the counter. He said it was just cut that day. He also recommended some shrimp that tasted like lobster he said. We got home and made it and were so disappointed. We couldn’t even finish our meals. Neither of them were fresh!! The shrimp we’re kind of mushy in the swordfish not fresh at all!! We will never be back!!

This place is fabulous!! Been coming here for 4 years! We’re from the north and we don’t have markets like this. The staff is very nice and very knowledgeable. Always a pleasure to purchase anything from the folks here.

Best bait around. Can’t get it any better
