Even though I didn't buy any fish at Monterey fish market, it is a place that I intend to go back to when I want to buy FRESH fish. Have you ever been in a fish market where the smell drives you away?? In Monterey Fish Market the air smelled fresh!!! Their selection was amazing with fresh clams, oysters, scallops, and sashimi grade tuna. They also had live crabs and lobsters available. Might as well shop where restaurant chefs shop.

The only place for fish. They know what fish to purchase, never purchase endangered or overfished types, and every restaurant that I have worked at over the past 38 years has used fish from Monterey fish market .( I am a cook)

Great service, excellent source for local and sustainable seafood. Don't forget they have curb service if you order online. However, I prefer in-store when I can so I see what's new. For example, I'm including a pic of boned skate. It's a hard-to-find seafood delicacy. Also we love their tartar and cocktail sauces.

The Monterey Fish Market has the freshest seafood you can buy in the Bay Area, ranking at the top with the Tokyo Fish Market. What sets the Monterey Fish Market apart is its focus on sustainable sources; each product is accompanied by a description of where and how it was obtained.

They seem to be shut tight today, windows papered, not taking calls. Many people get crab without ordering in advance for Xmas eve, but be prepared for a 30+ minute wait.
