The Public Fish Sales Float along the south seawall, immediately in front of the little Go Fish…read morerestaurant, offers fish directly from the boats. It's a great way to help the fishermen cut out the middlemen and maximize their profit. I find the prices less expensive than grocery stores. Cash only; nearest bank machine is on Granville Island. It's located at the north end of First Avenue where it meets the south shore of False Creek, near Granville Island. There's also the fun factor: make it a part of a seawall walk & stop at Granville Island Market along the way for your other dinner fixings.

Great place to get local fish. At this time of year, all of their product is frozen, but it was…read moreflash frozen and packaged at the time it was harvested meaning it is probably fresher than anything you purchase 'fresh' that hasn't been frozen. We've had several of the products from here as recently as two weeks ago when we walked down there for an adventure to pick up some shrimp and some jerked salmon jerky. Yes that's right, Jerked Salmon Jerky. YUM. We ate the entire package in one afternoon. The shrimp comes frozen in a bed of ice and needs some time to thaw. But once it is thawed, it's great quality and wonderful in any seafood dish or simply as part of a shrimp cocktail with seafood sauce. This is how we enjoyed our last batch of shrimp. Also available is salmon and assorted white fish. If you enjoy fish and/or seafood it is worth visiting the docks and getting something local.

I understand king crabs are expensive…read more What I ordered on the website stated it would feed "2-3 people" (see photo) and I would argue this is misleading. Granted, I'm at fault for not paying attention to the grams because if I did, I would have realized it's barely enough for 1 person. In they store they actually tried to justify that this is enough for 2-3 people. I'm willing to pay market value, even more to support a business I like, especially during these rough times. But sorry, this is just plain deceptive.

This time they said they have already packed (vacuum and frozen) one but unfortunately sold out. So I did it same at home again. I recommend to ask if they still have "packed one" if you are thinking to get ready by yourself.

The oysters were fresh and tasty. Calamari was crispy. Ceviche was 1 of my favorites and the brussel spouts were great! My least favorite though was probably the crab cake. I would definitely skip that in the future. Everything else, you can't go wrong. Would totally come back again!

I stopped by The Lobster Man while exploring Granville Island Public Market…read more It's a small spot with no real place to eat inside, so plan on grabbing your food and finding a seat somewhere around the market. Service was standard, nothing memorable one way or the other. I ordered the warm lobster roll and a prawn cocktail. Unfortunately, the lobster roll was a letdown. It wasn't very warm, the lobster itself didn't have much flavor, tasted off and the whole sandwich was just kind of dry. Thank goodness I also ordered the prawn cocktail because it saved the meal. It wasn't anything fancy, but the prawns were a good size and gave me something I actually halfway enjoyed. Overall, I didn't have the experience I was looking forward to.

If you want seafood fresh, as in live in the tank, then spare yourself the trip to China town and…read moreaccess this Riely Park special. Spotted prawns when in season, always lots of crab and lobster, clams and mussels and rock cod and red snapper. As a side note they sell cheaper lobster and crabs that aren't restaurant quality because they only have one claw. If you don't know, they taste just as good but for value I always get the double clawed because it's the best eating. I am always the only person here that doesn't speak Chinese but worry not there is always one young guy that you can talk with. I think nobody knows about this place because it has a door with bars on it and a small sandwich board as advertisement. Their prices are fair. This is a great resource for any home cook that is brave enough to venture into the dark and forbidding world of the sea

Always driven by this place on my way to dim sum or Cantonese restaurants on Victoria Drive and decided to stop in and look and was pleasantly surprised they had a whole tank of live rock cod. Live and fresh is always better if you don't mind splurging and the price per pound which included scaling and gutting the fish was fair considering what larger places like Tnt were charging for live rock fish. I would recommend this place if your favourite fish market in Vancouver Chinatown doesn't have what you are looking for, they had a large tank full of live king crab while I was there as well.

However, the quality of their product is pretty good. Most of their items that they sell are frozen. The store is very crammed and not a lot of space to walk in. Service was ok. I feel like I could get fresh seafood elsewhere for slightly cheaper prices. They do have some unique items like the smoke cod (which I do not recommend because it is super tough and chewy), smoked maple salmon (super yummy but very expensive) and other items as well.

I have come here many times, and whenever my wife wants those sea creatures, whether in whole form.. or in other forms (fish paste, fish balls, etc.) this is a stop off when buying groceries. Of course Chinese is an asset when coming here, doesn't matter if you speak Cantonese or Mandarin these people have you covered, just ask, yet you cannot be shy. It is not a fancy place, and your nice suede shoes could get wet walking in here, at the same time, any time of the day another truck with fresh stock could come right past you, this is the nature of the business, yet this is one of the best places in Richmond to buy seafood, hands down!
