Got the take away lunch fish n chips for myself and calamari for the person with me. They were both average as far as deep fried seafood goes. I paid extra for the tarter sauce and it was pretty good since its homemade. The French fries were larger sized potatoes and tasted pretty good. I usually like ketchup with my fries but that isn't really served here. I think ketchup period is kinda an American thing. It's considered tacky to ask for it. Lol. Oh well, I added a little salt and they were pretty delicious! They also sell a variety of fresh seafood and even offered recipe cards for ideas on cooking the fish you buy. The staff was quick to help and the wait wasn't very long. We ate across the street at Manly beach which always offers incredible views!

There's nothing like a slab of barramundi on the barbecue, and I've had some of the best from the Manly Fish Market. Give them 24-hours notice and they'll bring in whatever size you need, and prepare it so you're down to marinating and cooking - yum! And they're not short of advice either - we wanted to replicate a dish we'd had in Thailand, and they were able to advise on just how to marinate without overdoing the cooking in the acidic lime. Of course if it's more the instant fix you're after, this is a cafe too, where the chef will whip up a dish from your chosen piece of fish, or your can switch to take-away and grab your portion with chips to enjoy outdoors. For me though, the true plus of this place is that its the next best thing to getting to the fish market in town at 5am when the boats come in - they'll do it for you.

Fish and chips

Nice take away place for classic fish and chips. The use hake to make their battered fish. They also have grilled fish if you. Don't like deep fried seafood. Sauces are an additional $2.50 per container.

Cross between a fishmarket, factory wholesaler and retail shop, Faros Bros offers fresh seafood at…read morea fraction of supermarket prices. Not many people can afford to pay for parking at Sydney fishmarkets or make a special trip to Pyrmont to buy fresh fish. This place brings the fish to you! When you walk through the plastic flaps and into the giant cool room, it's evident what is for sale. Fresh fish and all different kinds of seafood lines the walls, so close you could touch it. But you don't, because there are people in gumboots, gloves and hairnets waiting to pick out the produce of your choice. There are people in the back gutting fish for the shop, so if you want to buy something whole, they can fillet it for you on the spot. To get an idea of price, the most recent visit I bought salmon cutlets for about $18 per kilo. A bit cheaper than the salmon fillets at $24 per kilo. Beats supermarket prices in the salmon stakes by at least $10 and makes eating fresh fish an affordable habit. If going at Christmas or New Year time, or any other holiday period be prepared to wait in a queue outside. Then be prepared to take out a whole garbage sized bag full of seafood for your holiday celebrations. Faros Bros is always busy and at super busy times there is a ticketing system. Parking is a bit hairy, with only 6 or so spaces in front of the shop, and on street parking a little difficult. There are now more spaces on the other side of the road, but take care when looking for a park as it's in a one way street with cars crossing from one lane to the other depending on which direction they are going.

I recently read that eating seafood is good for your mental health. You could call this the…read moreapothecary of mood enhancing substances. I came for the crab. The unlucky Crustacea are my flavour of the month right now, after I discovered how easy it is to make your own Singapore chilli crab sauce, which I admit I I have been craving after since I went to Jumbo's in Singapore earlier this year. (There is a great SBS food video and recipe that's easy to search for, if it's up your alley too) Googling for seafood outlets that are on my way home from work, I found the yelp reviews straight away. Easy for me to get to when swinging home through Marrickville. It's true you wouldn't know it was a seafood shop from the outside, but the fact you can very rarely get a spot in their tiny car park is testament to the fact a lot of people shop here. Park on the opposite side of the street to avoid the frustration of squeezing in. Think of something from the great deep blue that you can munch on and they probably have it here. Oysters, all of the Oysters!. Scallops on or off shell. Cooked yabbies - make yer own crawfish pie! Thinking I might do that next time I go. Fish of all species, Prawns cooked or raw, Octopus, Squid, and the one thing I came for Mud Crab. They have 2 tubs, one for boys and one for girl mudcrabs. I'm not up on the ethics of Mudcrab choosing, so I went for the biggest one. That sucker was alive and kicking. Trussed up of course, but that's the thing about crab.. fresh is best and you have to dispatch that little beggar on your own. She cost me $19. and she was delicious. There is a ticket system to get served, but for some reason I got bumped up the queue. I dont know if there were any tickets left, but the staff were immediately helpful and attentive. Prices seem pretty good, and everything looked fresh as a daisy. I dont even remember there being that fishy fish shop smell. Faros Brothers is totally worth of my half century review. If you're a local, go and see them the next time youre in need of a seafood fix I dont think you'll be disappointed.

It's massive, modern and provides plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy all the fresh sea food from the vendors inside. I got Peter's- a salmon lover's bento box- and everything was so delicate and fresh. The salmon sashimi melted like butter and the rice on the nigiri was fluffy, tender and went perfect with the fish. The service was super fast and the workers were direct but friendly. The lines honestly weren't that bad when I went- so try to go on a weekday if possible. Great spot to bring friends and family. The only annoyance were the birds! Be ready to run away from the seagulls- they love to gather here.

This is a really fun market located in Sydney Australia. In addition to fresh seafood (both raw and…read morecooked), they also serve food from all around the world including Chinese dumplings, Italian food with other meats, pastries, desserts, fresh fruits and foods from different cuisines. I got 2 of the fresh raw large prawns. They were so sweet and delicious! I ate them off their shells raw. You could dip them in soy sauce with wasabi for extra umami. I also got a variety of nigiris and they were all delicious! I also got the Portuguese custard tarts and they were very close to the ones I got in Lisbon ! I also got the fried fish burger and their Barramundi fish (which tastes like sea bass) was tender and moist! The fresh cut mangos were very sweet and I plan go back one more time before I leave Sydney! The fish market was recently renovated and just opened earlier this year. The birds outside can get very aggressive. Indoor seating usually requires you to purchase from the restaurant with the seatings. Seating can be a challenge and to me that was the biggest downside to the whole experience.
