Shopped at market fisheries today 30 December. I arrived at 1006am and there was a full house. If…read moreyou don't know , market fisheries has a number system, you pull your number and wait to be called. The first number they called was 32, I was number 48. This gives me time to check prices and product. The employees kept the lines moving and in less than 15 minutes I was getting served. I needed crab legs, crab meat, Cajun chicken sausage. This place always has what I need and the service is excellent. I'll be back for some catfish and buffalo later.

I decided on a 10 piece party wing combo with buffalo sauce. For $10.99 it came with fries and two pieces of toasted white bread in total. My only complaint was that I had to pay 75 cents extra just for ranch and ketchup which is sort of nickel and diming you, but the fact that it's salad ranch packets and not actual legit ranch made for wings is what was a bummer. I'd still return to try some other things on their menu! Great seafood selections for great prices!

Corn, broccoli, potatoes, rice, and two large fillets, and this was the "small." Wow. What was not so great: One of the garlic butters leaked. The smell was really good. Everything was sprinkled with hot red powder, either pepper or hot paprika. Too hot for me. I will rinse the leftovers before eating. I must be the only South Shore resident who doesn't like hot pepper. Next time I will ask them to leave off the sprinkle. Surprisingly, my husband is still chowing down, and usually he is the one who can't eat hot food. The food really is very good.

Hmm, where to start. I ordered 2lbs of snow crab legs with sausage. When I opened the tray I had 2…read moreclusters of snow crab not 2lbs and no sausage. When I went to opening the crab legs there was no meat in them. If they would've weighted it which I assumed they did, they would've realized I wasn't receiving 2lbs of snow crab more like a pound of shell. A whole leg came with a half knuckle size of meat. Maybe they overcooked it, i dont know. They also wouldn't put any of the juice or boil in a separate container for dipping the crab meat. Most establishments charge you for sauce on the side which I was willing to pay for but the lady behind the counter refused. It was a very disappointing experience, and honestly they probably got these snow crab from a Costco or wherever they sell them in stores. If people are paying money for snow crab please ensure the snow crab has meat in them.

I still remember how incredibly tasty their fried shrimp was and still is. They offer multiple shrimp sizes to choose from, plus options like catfish, frog legs, and more. Everything is fried fresh to order, and I love that you can pick exactly how much you want. The seafood is flown in daily, and you can truly taste the difference. The jumbo shrimp are my personal favorite , it's so plump, juicy, and perfectly cooked every time. On top of that, the service is always friendly and welcoming. This place is not just delicious, it's nostalgic, comforting, and consistently amazing.

And it's not that I can't afford it, but i'm not gonna play a ridiculous price for some shrimp, that's common sense .I'll never return.Don't need the attitude.You do need money though

I made sure to get a half pound of each of their Crown Jewels- the smoked salmon and the smoked shrimp. I also tacked on a small side of fries with some ketchup and hot sauce. While the shrimp was fairly solid and certainly had the subtle smoky flavor present, it didn't blow me away quite like the salmon did. That was that the best smoked salmon I've ever had in my life, I just couldn't get enough of it. No idea how they possibly pack so much flavor into every single bite, but I left nothing behind. I can still smell the smoky savory flavor, and will certainly be getting the salmon every time I come back. The piping hot fries were delicious as well, especially after plopping down my meal on a bench outside in the 20 degree weather to scarf everything down at once. Service was great as well- had some questions about what was offered and they were happy to answer everything and make recommendations. Would go back for sure.

The quality of the fish is excellent, especially the shrimp. I think I could eat that fried shrimp every day. All the fish was perfectly fried but as much as I like catfish, I might take a pass on it in the future. The fish was beautifully meaty but the coating does nothing for the flavor of the fish and it came across as bland. To me, the smelts could have used a squeeze of lemon but that's just my taste. I'm not as good a judge of smoked fish but once again, the shrimp were outstanding, mostly due to the quality of the shrimp. I'm not as big a fan of the trout partially because I don't care for the variety of trout they use and partially because while the smoke smell is very strong, the smoke flavor isn't quite that strong. The garlic pepper salmon went over well. The flavors were well balanced and the fish was nicely moist. The store is tiny, parking may be challenging, and when they sell out of something for the day, that's that. The staff is helpful and efficient. And remember, CASH ONLY.
