I have been here several times now and view it as one of EBs hidden gems. Arturo and team care and it shines through on execution experience and transparency.

They are clean friendly and confident in their product and a small local business that deserves the community support more than those big chains along 18.

Excellent presentation of prepared seafood as well as a vast variety of fresh fish layed out in and on ice. Whole fish, too, if you're inclined. Frozen seafood also available, spices, rubs, marinades, Citris. Well organized, friendly, courteous service. No smells of any kind. I go with a cooler and they even prep your uncooked seafood with fresh ice. Certain items can be cooked for you, if you prefer. Current market prices, naturally, but you're getting the top quality fresh seafood you could possibly find. There's also a podium with a recipe book to give you inspiration and ideas with how to cook and present your favorite seafood meals.

TODAY I WAS CRAVING MY FAVORITE, BLUE CRAB ! ANYWAY I DIDN'T FEEL LIKE COOKING OR GOING OUT OF MY WAY SO I GOOGLED LOCAL SPOTS. ALL I CAN SAY IS OMG!! I GOT A HALF DOZEN & THEY EVEN THREW IN AN EXTRA 3 FOR ME!! SO DELICIOUS, FRESH, & VERY WELL FLAVORED WITH OLD BAY & GARLIC! PRICES WERE MORE THAN REASONABLE ESPECIALLY FOR THE QUALITY! ALSO, THE STAFF MEMBERS WERE SUPER SWEET ! I WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK

The best #1 size crabs we've ever had!! We were in the area and found this place. They're meaty and sweet. Great service too

The selection of seafood is so great at this market! It is always fresh and I am absolutely love it! The staff is always friendly and polite, the prices are competitive enough. Nice location. Definitely the great place to buy seafood. Highly recommended.

Best fried flounder I ever had, orders are always on time and you get a decent amount of fish. Plus their fries are pretty good

*****

I have never seen such a beautiful fish market! The quality, freshness and selection is outstanding! The prices are much lower than you would expect for such quality. Customer service is friendly, on point and knowledgeable. You can even pick out your fish, they will filet and even cook it. ARTURO is a very talented Chef. I will never buy fish anywhere else! I give E.B Fish 5 fishes!!!!!

Yesterday I went into this new East Brunswick fishmarket for the first time. It was amazing. Extremely clean everything looks so fresh the owner is the nicest guy. The seafood I bought for dinner last night was delicious and the price was good. I highly recommend them its nice to finally have someplace other than the grocery store in town to get some nice fish. I will be going back.

Wonderful fresh fish! Friendly service!

*****

The freshest seafood I have had in a long time. Much better than the grocery stores in every way. Prices are great on both the fresh fish and prepared foods. Their fried clams are amazing.

*****

The most wonderful and appealing fish market I have ever been too. I was amazed when I walked in and saw the vast selection and awesome prices. really best quality I might have seen anywhere! The fried soft shell crab was the cleanest and the fresh fried clams came by the pound and was the best tasting and freshest we have ever had anywhere in any state! I can't wait to go back, they are extremely friendly and accommodating as well. I can't say enough about this place we love it.

Fantastic fish market. Friendly customer service - and the product is top notch quality. I would highly recommend the branzino! They can cook them for you (fried or grilled) to order. Its absolutely fantastic. This spot is my go to.

Arturo and his staff are amazing! They answer all my questions and are so helpful! Arturo thank you for always making my visit to the fish market a great one! Recently I became pregnant, and Arturo and his staff are so helpful & reassuring me I am getting the freshest fish, and they even walked to food to the car for me! The fish is absolutely fresh and delicious you can taste the difference! Thanks Arturo and staff you guys really need to open a raw bar for clams and oysters- EB residents would LOVE that I think !!!

This market it literally right around the corner from my house. Tonight my wife and I decided to check it out so this review is only based on one experience. We purchased some wild caught shrimp in shell as well as two snapper fillets. While the snapper was good, it wasn't the freshest I've had but to put things in perspective I've been a fisherman for many years and often consume fish that was literally swimming hours ago so my bar is high. The shrimp however were some of the best I've found locally and the fact they had wild caught not just farm raised was a huge plus. We will return, perhaps next time I'll ask more questions since we're open to eating many varieties of fish and see what was brought in the most recently. Other pluses, the market was clean and organized, price were reasonable and they had a nice selection.

Stopped in on our way back to Chicago. We had the pleasure of meeting with Arturo whom was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. The space was clean, wide selection and all very fresh. We were even helped with ice and a container to keep everything fresh on our way back. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Finally a GREAT seafood market in East Brunswick. I no longer need to drive an hour round trip for EXCEPTIONAL seafood. I grew up in Rhode Island and was raised on seafood. It is part of my soul and I am particularly picky and expect the highest quality. These guys come through. I would strongly recommend.

This was my first visit to EB Seafood. The store smelled amazing, was clean and all the food looked extremely fresh. All of the prepared foods looked so good! I got a prepared platter of salmon with pico de gallo on top. The salmon was cooked perfectly and the pico was deceptively spicy and delicious! I also got a coconut shrimp which was to die for! We will be back!

*****

Some the best fresh seafood (mussels, salmon, etc) I ever had. Great selection. And the owner is very friendly and helpful. I was going to buy his cooked shrimp, but he said if I have a few minutes he would be glad to cook a fresh batch- which he did for free. Great to have a local place like this

*****

We used EB Seafood for a family Clam Bake. Arturo was pleasant and easy to work with, the food was ready on time, fresh and flavorful. The price was good for what we received: steamed lobster, blue crab, shrimp, scallops, clams, corn and potatoes with a lot left over. The only thing I might do differently would be have them give it to me ready to cook and cook it myself next time, but I would definitely use them again.

*****

The seafood is very fresh! The octopus and shrimp ceviche is excellent ! Definitely recommend !

*****

I just moved to the neighborhood and I decided to buy some seafood. I was really impressed with this place. I love how the majority of the fish I saw was wild caught. The fish was fresh and Im so glad this place is nearby.
