Seafood Speakeasy! This unassuming Fish Market’s best kept secret is that it operates a restaurant in the back of the marketplace with the freshest catch you’ll find anywhere! Truly so good they will have you hook, line and sinker! The Halibut is to die for and lobster bisque with generous lobster portions. Better yet, if you want your favorite fish cooked a certain way, they’ve got you covered! Blackened swordfish? No worries matey!The room is small, immaculate and intimate yet service is kind, friendly and expedient. Note there is an early dinner crowd of locals, so timing is key. Nonetheless, despite the humble setting Seafood Gourmet churns out the most delicious seafood around, rivaling the most discriminating seafood establishments you can think of. Set sail on a voyage worth taking!PS Did I mention it’s BYOB?!

Wow, what a good find and fresh fish dinners are to die for. We just happened to find this place while walking by and so happy that we stopped in for dinner. The staff are very attentive and the service top-notch. Small place but very clean my wife and I would recommend dinner here for sure.

I heard about this place for years but this was my first visit. I've read many reviews here and i'm sure there are great dishes and repeat customers. Disclaimer: This was for Dinner...I did ask for No/low Salt...Their Lunches appear reasonably priced even though their Fresh Fish (to go) includes Salmon at $30/lb!! PROS: GREAT SERVICE! (But it would have been nice to be told of additional charges, even if mentioned on the menu, as not everyone reads each detail). Lobster Bisque was delicious. Salad was crisp and tasty (with requested Balsamic). Bronzino was tasty. Prices include soup or salad and vegetables. AVERAGE: Clams Oreganata just O.K....Shrimp Scampi slightly overdone...and I thought this dish usually includes Garlic but this one had no kick. (Also, I know many places serve with the tail on but it would be nice to have without the shell to eliminate digging in with fingers and spitting out shell pieces) CONS: Scampi sauce was just O.K...Roasted Potatoes were not roasted well...Broccoli was plain. Had to ask for bread. Prices were outrageous. My friend always orders Bronzino elsewhere, and even the River Palm is only $30 and it's $36 here + (charged $2 for Spinach). Overall, without coffee or dessert, with tax and tip, it was $100 for a place with the ambiance of a pizza joint. Nice people all-around and nice neighborhood crowd but there are so many alternatives, I cannot say I'll be rushing back.

My fiance and I ate here on February 17,2024 for the first time and the food and service was amazing. I had the grilled cod, shrimp and scallops with fries and broccoli and it was out the best I ever had. My fiance had the tuna steak, potato and broccoli, the tuna steak was perfectly cooked. The service was great and the owner took time to talk with us. Will definitely go back.

I got the fried fish sandwich and loved it, got it with tartar sauce and hot sauce. It comes on a hero and the bread was fresh. I would definitely get it again. Also got some clam chowder and was filled with clams and potatoes etc. I waited a little while but was worth it, they have many pickup orders. I recommend ordering ahead.

Their fish selection does not disappoint. And if you don't like fish, they do have land lovers option :)
