I had a feast every day of my birthday week. I was inspired by the cooking demonstrations on the Salt Water Market livestreams. Nothing can compare to fresh shrimp. The flavor of fresh shrimp is so much more superior to the jumbo frozen shrimp that I have in my freezer. My New York Strip was better than Ruth's Chris or Morton's. I need a little practice with the tenderness of my lamb chops but the flavor was there. I experimented with scampi butter, Cajun and other seasonings.

What a great place to buy fresh meat or fish. The place was packed with customers either picking up…read morepre order food or placing an order like us. You can buy rubs, marinades, salads, sides, bread, rolls, desserts, etc. They also have frozen wild game if that is what you are into. It was unfortunate that half their store did not have power as we were not able to see any of the meat or fish on display. iI was ok we were not able to hand select our steaks or fish - the store has such a great reputation we were not too worried about what we would end up with. We decided to order 4 prime marinated NY strip and 2 tuna steaks. They make theur own naribade so we had to try it. We also wanted to try one of frozen pre-made meals so we chose the sausage and pasta with vodka sauce. While in line to checkout we saw more than a few people with trays of cinnamon buns so we had to try them as well. This is a summery of our purchased food:. The cinnamon rolls were grainy. Not smooth. I think they were old (I had to pull them from the back). The steaks had a great flavor as the marinade was really good. Three of the 4 steaks were over cooked because we were given 4 different sized steaks. 2 got burnt the third was well done....$60 wasted. The tuna was good but again they gave us one large steak and one thinner one so the smaller was was dry....another $15 wasted. If I can make any suggestion....do not make a purchase without seeing what you are buying. $136.00 later I can say I was disappointed because of the unevenness it was cooked improperly. 4 stars because the cook is partially to blame. 3 stars otherwise. The sales person is the first person that should know better than to sell meat and fish the way they did. Ruined my Christmas meal. Only 1 of us ate. :(

I picked up the crabmeat ($180+) and returned home to make the crabcakes. The sell by date on the container was prior to my purchase and I was very concerned about serving seafood that had an expired sell by date. I called Mike and he argued with me. He said I should smell the crabmeat and if it did not smell right, to call him. Also, the crabmeat was not jumbo lump to which he replied that was all that was available in the market. I called Saltmarket and they were fabulous. They were able to get actual Jumbo Lump crabmeat for me that was fresh. I lost over $180 to avoid the possibility of giving our guests food poisoning. If you buy from Lucky Fish, buyer beware. Check the sell by date and also ensure you are getting what you ordered.

Last week, I called ahead and ordered two branzino with Pete. He cleaned and scaled them for me,…read morewhich I really appreciated since it was my first time cooking this fish. I was a little nervous, but also excited--and Pete made the whole process easy. He was very pleasant to talk to. I learned that branzino isn't something they always keep in stock, so it's best to call ahead and order. While I was there, I also picked up thyme, rosemary, lemon, red onions, regular onions, and honey, which saved me a trip to the grocery store. The shop was very clean and didn't have that strong fishy smell, which I liked. I was greeted right away, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Overall, it was a great shopping experience. I'm already planning to order a whole red snapper next--or maybe even baby back ribs--since ordering here is so easy. I'll attach photos of how the branzino turned out.

Prices are very fair too (I wish they would list this on their website because I think it would bring in more customers). Fish was fresh and I really enjoyed the cuts I ordered. They will cut steaks from the whole fish behind the counter. The rest of the store shelves are really sparse. There are some Asian products and lots of spices, but there is so much opportunity to make this place a really solid Asian fish market (fresh vegetables would be a game changer). There's lots of parking and the staff is really nice. I'll be back here for sure to try more.

For instance, snapper, grouper, mahi-mahi , tile and trigger fish. Often times they will have a wide selection of frozen fish in stock. They have well stocked supply of flash frozen gulf shrimp from Florida or Alabama. Their prices will be a bit higher than what you might pay at your local Harris-Teeter or Publix but the quality far exceeds. Their big differentiator is their customer service. They are a small independently owned business so their customer service is exceptional. Today I stopped in and ordered some fresh Snapper and got 2 pounds of frozen gulf shrimp and their seasoning. I got great customer service from Thos & John who were very professional and helpful. They also have the Low Country Boil packages. See my photo that goes into detail on the three levels and pricing. Go check this place out and support your local independently owned business!
