It’s not the most orderly place but the people who work here are so nice. Good Southeast Asian grocery selection. I did not buy any fish but they seem to do a good amount of business. They cater to the diversity of the community. The seem very helpful and I noticed they helped a young mother save money when buying rice. I thought that was nice.

Many products from the Caribbean there. Normally I would have to travel to Brooklyn NY to get this but the staff is very helpful to order it if you really want to buy it.

I keep asking myself whether or not health department ever pays a visit to this place. Theyre just selling rotten fish.

IMO, this is the best place to buy fresh fishes. I never mind driving 30 minutes to get here. The staff too are great. They clean the fishes really well, and are always eager to help you out with choices. I rate them a 10.FYI, they only take cash. There’s an ATM like next door though, if you forget to carry cash.

Its closer to than the other Asian markets if live near by. Everything is good except their freezer area. They need better freezer. Cause everything in the freezer always looks like its defrosting. Although, it looks like they are working on it. Besides that, everything is good. Customer service is amazing and very friendly.

The people there are very nice. Also very accommodating. You can get the favorite West Indian groceries there. All you have to do is call and they can see if they can get it

Decent prices.. lol the health inspector came while I was shopping and was making sure things were properly iced and I guess it was a good mark because the inspector left after a few minutes.. thats a plusI got blue crab..was small but sweet

Great prices on seafood. One needs to pay attending to how fresh things are as some is past its prime. Overall good selection and friendly service. The place is often busy but the service remains friendly and helpful. They will clean, filet, or cut the fish as you want. Often has a good selection of fresh shellfish as well.

Seafood and fish are fresh. Prices are not too bad. Only reason for the 3 stars is because of cleanliness. Some of the products on the shelf have expired for several months now...kind of scary. The other thing is that they accept only cash, no cards. Perhaps because of the area, and the costs of card services. We go here regularly though.Update on the cash: we were told due to several thefts in the area, people were using stolen cards without ID and it charges back to them when the card holder disputes. Its a small business after all.

Sometimes it’s not worth writing a review about certain places and this is one of them. I was looking for fresh mackerel to buy. I entered this shop and it smells. I got to the fish area and the mackerel on the table have been stored for a very long. I walked away and have since not visited this shop.

Lovely place to get affordable sea food! They clean and cut it for you, my only issue is that most of their items that aren’t sea food are expired!

Ja
Review №44

Place is trash because of the trash they allow to run in and out of there. I just had to go off on a loud ratchet for yelling on her phone using explicit language in front of my 4 yr old. Im a paying customer and the owners are sitting here putting up with this lady. That is bad for business if someone is literally in and out the door cussing someoneout on the phone and they arent even buying anything KICK THEM OUT. They lost business because Im never putting up with that nonesense ever again until they learn to keep their store in order smh.

The seafood is not as fresh as I thought. I had a issue with green catfish and the store sells expired dairy products and fruits that are old.The worse part about it is that they claim nothing is wrong with the green stink catfish and dairy.

First of all, if you have respiratory issues, this is not the place for you! They have no courtesy for their customers, they are burning incense constantly to some horrible looking Halloween statue they called their god. The smell is simply disgusting and abhorring! Place your pathetic god somewhere else out of view and the area and burn your smelly incense and pay homage to your pagan god elsewhere. We come to buy your produce, not smell like your Halloween looking god! Smh!
