    This place has been around forever; well at least 50 years that I know of…read more Obviously, not the same people behind the counter that I knew back in the '70's. Real fish stores are rapidly disappearing. Long hours, heavy loads, good chance of an injury from spines, small profit margins; nowadays everyone wants a cushy job. Here's the reasons for 5 stars: it's clean, it has never smelled fishy when you walk in, the fishes eyes are clear (a sign of being really fresh), there's an exceptional selection of fish, shellfish, and crustaceans, they'll clean the fish to your request, if you ask, on a hot summer day, to double bag the fish with ice in the outer bag it's gladly done for you. They know their products. There's lemons, sauces, and vegetables. They can create a cooked meal for you; pick out what you want. They do the rest. You know it has to be great if it's always crowded. Two people behind the cleaning stand and a few others helping customers. The prices are reasonable. They take cash, credit cards, and EBT.

    One of my favorite things is getting really good fresh shucked oysters and clams. This is the…read moreplace. Right out on the street. They have multiple types and you can mix and match or just keep trying whatever and how many you want. The fishmongers here really know their stuff and can even guide you into which oysters or clams you might enjoy the most. All the popular items are there to add to the shellfish, but honestly...the quality of these demands you eat them without. Especially the oysters. They were all just perfect. Now IF you can tear yourself away from the shellfish outside...you will find a huge market inside with incredibly fresh fish and seafood and knowledgable fishmongers. This is THE place on Arthur Avenue to get you fish.

    Went to Arthur Avenue with a friend on a Sunday and decided to create our own "food crawl". Our…read morefirst stop was Cosenza's Fish Market, and it ended up being the perfect way to kick things off. We ordered fresh oysters and clams, which were shucked right in front of us. Everything was incredibly fresh, briny, and full of flavor. They offer different toppings like vinegar and hot sauce, and we enjoyed them at one of the high-top tables outside, just steps away from where the seafood is displayed. Prices were fair (around $3 per oyster), and they do take credit cards, which made the stop even easier. Between the quality, the setup, and the energy of Arthur Avenue, this was an excellent start to our crawl. Would absolutely return on my next visit.
