We have been getting seafood from Todays Catch since we have lived in Columbia! Wonderful!! Always fresh and delicious. They have a good selection and freshness beats Whole Food, Wegmans and any other market that sells fresh fish. It's a Hidden Gem in Columbia. If you really want sushi grade seafood this is the place!! read more

Far be if for me to rain on the love parade in Columbia for Today's Catch but I can only address my experience today. $30 a pound... for cod? Isn't cod the classic fish and chips ingredient? Something you can get battered, cooked and served hot and ready to eat at any chippie in the British Commonwealth at two in the morning - with free fries - wrapped in a newspaper for an awful lot less than this cod! I mean, the cod at Today's Catch costs as much as the rockfish next to it. By contrast, Giant currently offers cod at $12 for TWO POUNDS. Sure, maybe Today's Catch IS better and fresher - but is it 5X better? For cod? Yikes. read more

I went in here a number of months back when me and a friend met up at the Starbucks in Columbia to hang out. It's a small store, reminds me of the cozier counter deli's in New York City, but that certainly doesn't mean they don't have a lot of seafood to sell. The first time I came, I decided to go with the seafood monger's suggestion on salmon. He said it was their most popular salmon by far ( I think they have about 3-4 different types). And to my surprise, it was easily one of the most delicious pieces of salmon I'd cooked up at home until that point. The next time me and my friend went to meet up in Columbia, I made in point in saying that I wanted to stop by Today's Catch Seafood lol. Ever since I had that salmon the first time, I wanted to get it again. Now, I live in Gaithersburg, so a bit of a ways from here. And I usually purchase my seafood from Costco. Sorry... I eat a lot of seafood and am on a budget. And I'll be honest, the seafood here is a bit pricey - especially compared to what I would get at Costco for my money. But the old adage resonates loudly in that price comparison. You pay for what you get. The quality of the seafood here... well let's just say that Costco's doesn't hold a candle to it. If you're in the area and want to treat yourself to some legit fresh and delicious seafood, I'd recommend you stop by. Just one note: the two times I have been in here most of the workers were not wearing masks. I'm assuming they've been vaccinated. That said, you can easily get in and out of here in less than 2 minutes. They are incredibly efficient, usually have plenty of people to help you, and a large seafood refrigerator separates you from the employees 90 percent of the time. I'm very much looking forward to going back. The second time I picked up the same salmon (I wish I could remember the specific name - but just ask for the most popular one and they'll know what you're talking about), some cod, and some shrimp. The cod was *chefs kiss* just like the salmon. I will be back. read more

They always have a good selection for such a small place. Reasonable prices and good service.

Best fresh seafood around ! The clams and mussels are always so fresh that they all open upon cooking. Salmon is delicious.... their offerings are high quality and worth every penny. Let's support a small neighborhood business read more

If you want truly high quality fresh fish and seafood, this is the place to get it. Excellent service and displays of many kinds of fish. I routinely get salmon, cod, halibut, scallops, mussels and oysters in the shell. Unlike most grocery stores, the fish that Today's Catch sells have not been previously frozen and you can tell by the flavors. read more

Look at the eyes of the fish here. Many are stated fresh so fresh may be up to interpretation. It's clean.

Better customer service is needed. I realize it's busy on Dec 23rd but your sign said closed Monday, with the door locked. We had a pick up at 10 but the door was locked. I knocked everyone just looked at me left me out in the cold without offering to tell me I needed to come back at 11. I wouldn't have minded coming back I just found the sign confusing and misleading. When I did get in I found everyone to be quite rude. read more

Always our go to for the freshest seafood. We have been going there for years and never had any complaints.

I called ahead of time due to the size of my order. Upon arriving I was greeted immediately. That may seem small. But, you'd be surprised how often customers are ignored when they walk into an establishment. I gave my name and they began preparing my order. I asked questions about the difference in cuts and fish. All of my questions were happily answered. The seafood display was clean and everything looked so fresh. I ended up adding large shrimp and some seasonings to my order. I will definitely be back and plan to try something new!! read more

Best fresh seafood and the staff could not be friendlier! This is our go to for Christmas time! Never been disappointed, highly recommend!

We went to Today's Catch for our first time. The quality of the fish was terrific and the price reasonable. I was disappointed with the customer service-- I walked into the store 1.5 hours prior to closure and requested a red snapper whole fish. One of the workers scoffed at me and stated they typically do not provide that service so close to closing. I apologized (it was my first time visiting the store and I was unaware of this policy). He responded extremely sarcastically with, "I am sure you are sorry." His co-worker was nice and picked up the slack to quickly complete the order and provided a good service. Frankly, we almost left to take our business elsewhere if the other worker was not there. Summary: high quality fish at reasonable price; could work on customer service read more

Today's Catch Seafood - red snapper, whole. Grilled! - Seafood Markets Near Me - Columbia, Maryland

I stop buying sashimi at restaurants and korean supermarket. I'm buying Salmon grade in here instead. I save money alot. The quality were the same at 4-5 star restaurants. They are gentle, nice, welcoming and professional. read more

Best fresh seafood (and service) in Howard County -- bar none! I've been buying fresh fish, shrimp, soft crabs, and other shellfish here for over 30 years and have never been disappointed. Do yourself a favor and ditch the supermarket seafood counter for Today's Catch -- you'll never go back! read more

I think of Today's Catch as the Treuth's seafood, right here in Wilde Lake Village Center. Privately owned business operating here for decades (they just moved to a different side of the village center during the remodel). Fantastic seafood, fantastic employees, barely pricier than other local options that are not as good. Don't even have to deal with an overcrowded mall lot. It's a win on every single point. Those were some damn good scallops ! read more

Although this was a small market, the selection was extremely fresh, the store was VERY clean, and the staff was extremely helpful. I was very impressed with the quality and price of the seafood - top notch! The employees took the time to inspect each oyster before bagging them for us and labeled the area each of the two varieties we got were from. My husband loves catfish and it is difficult to find fresh, wild catfish and we were able to get it here at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend checking them out! read more

This is the only place I come to for fresh seafood. The staff is very knowledgeable on how to prepare, cook, or season whatever it is you choose to buy. It's always fresh and I love supporting a great local business. Highly recommend! read more

This is the only place, AFAIK, you can go and buy seafood in HoCo and just know it is going to be good. It really isn't more expensive than say Wegman's or Whole Foods, but the level of knowledge of the employees is second to none. They know what's fresh, they know what was filleted that morning, they know what is in season etc.. They are happy to give suggestions. A dream if you are a cook, really. They deserve 6 stars. read more

Quite hard to find this place. And when you do, its not very appealing. Place is pretty small and looks kinda run down. But its not about the ambiance or setting. Its about the fish! Walked in and even though the place is small, they have a huge selection of fish you can buy. Many of the fish here are high quality or in other words sashimi grade. Expect prices to be a bit higher. Every time I got fish from here, whether its Monk fish or Salmon, they were amazing. Ate a piece of salmon and it almost melted in my mouth. Delish! Out of every place I got "fresh" fish from, this place cannot be beat! read more

Everytime I make the drive out here I think "why don't I make the drive out here more often". This is an honest to god seafood market. You will find fresh incredible fish. The prices are a tad higher than you'd pay at a supermarket, but the quality is leaps and bounds above even the best. The best part is - you can even ask questions about your seafood. They know where it came from, give suggestions on how to cook it, let you know how long you can store it for. They'll encourage you to try something new (I cooked whole fish for the first time since moving down here, a couple of times). I also love that Dave's Organic Market is in the same plaza. I bring an insulated bag, Today's Catch throws in a bag of ice to keep my purchase cold, and then I head over to Dave's to get whatever one-off items I need to cook up the fish. The US produces some of the best seafood in the world - just ask China, they import more of it than we eat. They then ship us farmed seafood they don't eat. As a result, we're polluting and destroying our wild seafood sources, and they're using questionable standards to grow our farmed seafood. Buying locally sourced seafood is not only healthier, not only better for our economy as a whole, not only ethically sounder - it's also just tastier. Today's Catch is a great place to realize just how good seafood can really be. read more

Let Today's Catch make you believe again in scallops! My wife loves the sweet bivalves, but I have bought too many supermarket scallops that tasted flat. Nothing special about them except the exorbitant price. The Today's Catch Seafood Market in Columbia made me believe again. The clerk told me that they don't always have the bay and sea scallops, but when they do, they're "dry" scallops - which means that they're just scallop. Never been treated. Never been injected with saline solution or however else the wholesalers extend their profits. Today's Catch's scallops were beautiful, a half-pound of sweet, firm flesh sauteed in nothing but butter and the juice of a lime. Today's Catch has a minimal feel. Fish on ice, fillets in coolers. There is a small freezer and a display of spices, but mostly, it is a few clerks, a few fish and you. The smell is right, more sea water than fish. The selection runs from mild tilapia and cod to sushi-grade tuna and strong-flavored mackerel. read more

The best seafood place in Howard county. I have been a loyal customer for 35 years and they have never disappointed. Knowledgeable, friendly, helpful If you need it. Will gladly share their expertise with you. They have stayed loyal to the community through hard times. Really the best! read more

Used to go here all the time and the fish was always amazing. Moved back into the area recently and got some cod yesterday. Best cod I've ever had. And the prices are still super reasonable. Not much else to say - if you want fish come here. read more

Today's Catch is the best place to get seafood in town, hands down! Our family have been customers for 30+ years. Everything is always fresh, delicious- top of the line. The staff at Today's Catch are extremely knowledgable and go above and beyond to help you make your selection. read more

I wanted crab cakes that were made to cook at home and saw that Today's Catch Seafood was highly rated. And the reviews were right! The crab cakes were deliciously fresh and only $7.99 each! I loved the local vibe to the place and highly recommend supporting this longstanding local business that I had never tried before. read more

Fresh fresh fresh. What else could you ask for? A hidden gem of columbia. Prices can get up there, but the quality is always consistently high. Sometimes when you buy seafood you get what you pay for. read more

The best place to buy fish in Howard County. Better than the high-end grocery stores. Fresh, fresh, fresh. They even have sushi-grade tuna, which I've had several times - always solid. Never much of a wait, either. Friendly, local small business. Great food resource in the area! read more

The helpful and knowledgeable staff helped this novice seafood cook navigate the fresh selection fish, mollusks and shrimp, and offered preparation suggestions. Googled foodie sites suggested an appetizing recipe for searing my sushi-quality tuna steak. It was beyond delicious! I'm now a regular Today's Catch shopper. read more

Freshest seafood I've ever had. The workers are, without exception, extremely well trained, fast and polite. And did I mention fast. If you've ever paid premium prices for fish in places like Whole Foods, the service here is a million times better. The workers really know their fish, they know how to slice, de-bone and fillet each one, and they are a pleasure to watch. The owners are hands-on, and very involved. It's not a chatty sort of place, but the air of professionalism is a pleasure to behold, and you simply won't taste better fish. It's pricey, but worth it. I recommend their crab cakes too. read more

Excellent local fish market with the freshest fish. We've been going here for years to get all the seafood we need.

The staff is super friendly and can always help make recommendations. I've been coming here for sushi-grade salmon and tuna for the last 2 years and I am never disappointed. Good prices and always fresh fish would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for fresh, raw seafood. read more

Best seafood out there! You won't get a fresher piece of fish. Been working there for 3 years now and it's a family owned business. Best place to work and get fresh seafood, what could be better? read more

I've only tried fresh fish from Today's Catch twice. Both times, the service was good, and the fish was excellent. Nobody's going to fall in love at first sight with this small, pretty bare store. However, it's evident what their priority is, and that's providing customers with good fish. I'm no fish connoisseur (I'll usually buy canned tuna or smoked salmon), so each time at Today's Catch, I went with the random filet. Both times, the fish was delicious. Either I got really lucky with my choices, or they have a selection of good quality fish. The prices are higher than what I normally pay for seafood, usually canned or frozen, but I'll splurge once in a while for fresh, unadulterated fish. read more

This is the freshest, best seafood I've ever had. The employees are extremely helpful and knowledgeable as well. The fish at Whole Foods doesn't come close. read more

Awesome soft shell crabs, shrimp, jumbo lump crab and squid!!! So fresh! Nice sized selection. Very nice people working there Love that this place doesn't smell fishy also read more

When we discovered today's catch in Columbia, md, we were SO happy! We needed a good place to get quality seafood. Let me tell you, they have it. Only fantastic quality products. They provide great service and educate you about the different fish and even suggest cooking methods. My husband and I only buy our fish and scallops at this store. Just amazing quality, friendly service all the time. Recommend to anyone who loves high quality seafood. read more

Agreed that finding Today's Catch Seafood was a challenge, but once located I knew I would be back again. The fin fish (Halibut, Salmon, Cod, Tuna) cooked up deliciously whether baked or pan fried. A 4 - 6 oz portion makes a satisfying entree for a supper. The quality of the fish at Today's Catch is well above that of any fish I have gotten from supermarkets and although the price is higher it is well worth it. read more

Today's Catch is a real treasure. I served TC's salmon to friends this week and got the usual response. "Wow, did you get this at Today's Catch." Obviously, we are old timers who know our fish and know that you can't do any better than buying at this market. Bill and Jim pick only the best. The selection is amazing, and they are most helpful. read more
