We went with the lake trout as she said the bass would be too smelly. The cut the trout up just as we needed it so no head, tails, scales or guts. Just fish, spine & skin. All the fish looked fresh. Pretty good variety too. Definitely worth the visit.

I've shopped at Cho's in Lexington Market since 1995. In my opinion they have the best fresh fish…read moreI have ever eaten (and I've eaten a lot of fish over the years)!! I moved to Ohio in 2019 haven't been able to find decent fish since I've been here. I hear that Lexington Market has been renovated and that Cho's has not opened yet. Can't wait until they return. I pray I will be able to order fish from Cho's when they open to have it shipped to me here in Ohio. Did I mention the professionalism and friendliness of the staff. They definitely aim to please! Hurry back Cho's because you are definitely missed! CF

Our go-to fish mongers/fish market. Have not tried the hot food but the people in line look…read morepretty psyched every time we go, The shellfish (muscles, clams, oysters, shrimp) and fresh fish options are great with plenty of frozen options too. Call ahead if you questions or requests to save yourself time, the standards will be in stock. The people and the service you get is as good as it gets. If the place is not crazy talk to this great bunch of nice folks who know their stuff. When it gets crazy be patient please because seafood takes time and is hells hard work. Enjoy! Don't pick up the damn crabs you heathens !!!!

It's been a min since we've returned. Unfortunately customer service has drastically changed. We…read moreencountered very RUDE service over the phone. No greeting just silence and then got hung up on after a second of them picking up. I called again and they finally young lady decided to answer with a greeting. Upon arriving to grab our LG dozen... we've always been able to stack military discount and the online coupon for $5 off since our last visit. I even confirmed with the cashier during our last visit because I thought that was really nice of them. The young lady cashiering this time around had no remorse or explanation but a "NO" just military or the coupon. If you're okay with this type of customer service and can over look it plus this place being a bit $$$ definitely try their steam crabs and fish they got here. Customer Service definitely needs work. Its very awkward coming inside to an awkward staring contest with everyone behind the fish counter and cashier ( NO GREETING OR HELLO) as if your trespassing into the building or hi how can we help you today? Are you looking for anything specific???. ... Anyways ... not sure when we'll return..

She gave me the Lenten and Monthly Specials menu to accompany my gift card and Get Well Card. Nothing like Conrad's great seafood and additoinal items sold in the store to make a meal that will heal! My friend texted when they got it to say that I had such a Good Idea and they are carrying it out!! Small world: bought from a Mercy Alum, by a Mercy Alum for a Mercy Alum's husband and herself!

Not impressed. We've been here before and it's never consistent. This time we ordered 2 backfin…read morecrab cakes (fried) an entree. It comes with 2 sides. We got onion rings and coleslaw. I tried to pay cash but the cashier counted only $30 so I paid on my credit card. Before I even had the opportunity to use the touch pad to put in a tip she immediately hit enter several times so it bypassed all the options for tip, text receipt etc.... I was thinking ok, not wanting a tip I guess. It seemed rather rude. While we waited I counted my cash and I did have $40 so I'm not sure what was up with her math. Food came out really fast. Our drive was not far so our food should have been hot. Instead the small racquet ball size crab cakes were cold. I don't even think they were cooked thru. I had to stick in air fryer to get them warmed up. The coleslaw which on previous visits was good lacked any flavor besides mayonnaise. My poor wife cracked down on a sharp pointy shell in her crab cake. Needless to say we were both disappointed and still hungry. I'm not sure what happened but we won't be going back anytime soon. I think we'll stick with Pappas.

GREAT crabs. I use to drive past this place all the time and it wasn't until I saw that they had…read moregreat reviews that I decided to stop in. I called to find out their largest crabs and placed my order and they were ready when I arrived 10-15 min later. Crab shack 2 is carry-out only so you can only get crabs to go.

On the first oyster, the knife slipped and I jabbed by palm. Thank god I bought the oyster knife or the regular knife would be sticking out the back of my hand.
