    Fish and chips is an entree that is commonly served in Asheville restaurants. We can truly say that…read moreMother Ocean Market has the best fish and chips in town. Three nice sized pieces of cod, battered all crispy and fried just right. It came out of the kitchen sizzling hot. We have ordered fish and chips from Maine to Galveston, Seattle to Key West. They don't get better than this! Just to compare, we also ordered the fried shrimp basket. Another clear winner! The shrimp were very fresh and the batter was deliciously crispy, sizzling hot as they arrived at the table. The staff was warm and friendly, and they accommodated with a smile every customer who walked in the door. I can't rave about the ambiance like I raved about the food but hey, we sat at a clean 2-top and what else could we need. Just between you and me I overheard the front man tell a customer there is a $3 discount on fish and chips on Friday. Don't tell anyone!

    This is a review for their food service, not for purchasing fresh seafood over the counter. I…read morefigured this should be a great place to get fish and chips, so that's what I ordered for lunch here. As with many places in Asheville, you order at the counter, they give you a number and then bring your food to you. It did not take long to get my order, which I know was freshly cooked, as it was very hot when it arrived. There were 3 good-sized pieces of fish. The fish itself (cod I think) was very high quality: thick, but cooked through, not dry at all, beautiful white fish with no dark spots and no excessive fishy smell or taste, and basically so soft it fell apart when I bit through the batter. The batter though was pretty disappointing. I've had better batter at just about any little chippy you find anywhere in the UK, as well as many places here in the US. With one of the pieces, the batter tasted a little off. Not sure whether it was the seasoning, the oil or maybe it was cooked a little too long. I got remoulade as my sauce (other choices were tartar and cocktail sauce). The sauce was very good and was the thing that really gave the fish some flavor. The fries/chips were okay. They were seasoned with Old Bay and were best when dipped in the remoulade sauce. This meal also came with a little container of coleslaw. Thankfully, it was only a little container! I like good coleslaw, but honestly, it is rare to find good coleslaw. Usually it's just okay/passable. But this coleslaw was unfortunately among the worst I've ever had. Basically inedible. I tossed it. I recommend just telling them to "hold the coleslaw" to save yourself the waste of tossing it. So IMO they need to either really up their coleslaw game or just stop serving it. Service here was okay and the ambiance was minimal, but okay (decent outside seating on a nice day). If it wasn't for the high quality fish, I would have given this place just 3 stars, but based on the quality of the fish, I went with 4.

    Stopped in on Sunday afternoon to get some fresh fish but they were out of almost everything. Got…read moresome frozen scallops instead. I thought they were a bit overpriced but they were some excellent scallops. I would definitely go back again when they have fresh fish in stock but I feel like they are a bit overpriced but everything in the WNC Farmers Market seems a bit overpriced.

    I stumbled across Locals Seafood while visiting the WNC Farmers Market looking for veggies, and I'm…read morevery glad I did. It is a branch of Locals Seafood at the Raleigh Farmers Market. Almost all the markets in the Asheville area only carry frozen/defrosted seafood. I was born in a little fishing village in New England, three houses from the docks, and am used to buying fish directly from the boat, so frozen just wasn't getting me what I craved. Locals Seafood has its own trucks to bring in fish fresh from the boats on the North Carolina coast. This might lead to slightly higher costs than at the megamarts, but premium quality is always worth at least that, if not more. Over the last month I have tried their Tile Fish, Swordfish, Snapper and Black Drum, and every meal was wonderful, the fish was pristine fresh, firm and flaky. The staff is great, very friendly and attentive, and always willing to share cooking tips and tricks. the store is squeaky clean, all the fresh fish resting on ice, which they pack with your fish to keep it cold on the way home. I have subscribed to their weekly email announcing what is going to be available on the weekend. The most recent email listed: FRESH NC SHELLFISH Kinnakeeter Oysters In-Shell: Briny, Vegetal, Sweet, Medium Ocracoke Select Oysters In-Shell: Briny, Buttery, Medium Herring Shoal Oysters In-Shell Croatan Oysters In-Shell: Salty, Mineral, Large Shucked Oysters by the Pint Littleneck Clams In-Shell Large 10/20 ct.

    I have seen this food trailer parked in front of Strossner's Bakery at the corner of Roper Mountain…read moreRoad and Congaree road for quite some time. A few months ago, I noted that this was a fresh seafood distributor. Or, as the owner Jason Janson would say, "your personal seafood purveyor." Which is both really cool and convenient - really cool because I have always wanted a personal seafood purveyor, even when I didn't know that I needed one (kind of like the ATM before there was an ATM) and convenient, because he is on my way to and from the gym every Saturday morning at 11AM (opening time). Prior to this first visit, I had scoped out his seafood offering on Facebook. There are several good selections, mostly all from the Carolina Coast, with the exception of some lobster tails, or halibut collars, or such specialty items. What makes this personal is that you can go to www.broadwatershrimp.com and join their email list and do pre-orders from there. This is a handy piece of information. I arrived for my first visit after seeing that they had live soft shell crab available and it is peak season right now. Fortunately for me, there were only six available soft shell crab that had not been on a pre-order. And I showed up at 10:30AM, so I was a bit early. They had pre-orders for 32 crab and had 38 on hand. My lucky day. Even at $12 each, still a bargain for this delicacy. All the other seafood looked fresh and excellent, but I was tapped out on seafood for today's budget. Other items are reasonable, but this is special. Jason also sets up on Friday's at the Swamp Rabbit Cafe from 11AM to 4PM but check his website or FB page as this is a full mobile market but also a pop-up location situation that may change. Jason mentioned he is also a personal chef and will be doing a full on Master's golf food spread for a client come this Sunday's final round of the Master's 2024! This seafood market and his personal chef are his primary income, so get out to visit and support this excellent market so we can have it around as an option!
