235 Fish Market

“ Asian Grocery, Veggie and Seafood that you will love. Great customer service and helpful staff, and its located in front of Stop and Shop Central Ave. corner Manhattan Ave. next to Pershing Park. ”

“ They have a wonderful line of fish and Asian products that you must see. They have veggies and fruits. They have condiments (soy sauce, fish sauce, marinade powder etc) They have Filipino frozen products too. ”

“ I love this place. Great people and prices are very very reasonable. I really don't want to write this as this is my go to spot but I will share. They have the best blue crab in town and for the best price. I know because I have been to all of them. ”

“ Staying at a friends house in Jersey and her husband said he always got $9.99 / lb. lobsters here! So I took a gander upon arrival saw they were $15.99 but I've been wanting to cook them for a minute and still seemed like a decent price. So I got 2 that came to be about $23 a lobster. Upon walking in the store it seems very clean and there is a LARGE amount of seafood offered. Along with many Asian pantry items and spices. I was able to get full sheet sea weed paper which I sometimes have a problem finding in my local grocery store in manhattan. The lobsters turned out AMAZING! Honestly one of my favorites, was my first time cooking as well. I've definitely had my shared cooked for me so I think I like to know what I'm talking about. Lol Definitely will be back in the future! Highly recommend if you live in the area. ”

“ This is our go to fish market on Central Ave. Fair prices and fresh fish, shellfish, and some vegetables and shelf safe foods such as canned sauces, dry rice noodles, etc. A limited but good selection of South East Asian products. Don't expect anything fancy or wholefoods experience, this is a local, mom and pop type of fish market but great variety and freshness. Some people mentioned the "fishy smell" but come on, this is a fish market. That is unavoidable when these folks are cleaning and cutting the fish for you in-house even if the fish is super fresh. I got halibut, cod, and salmon steaks. Used the halibut for making beer battered fish and chips and froze the rest for later:) a must stop by when you are exploring Central Ave. Markets. ”

“ Basing this review purely on the raw fish and no prepared foods - this place is Chinatown legit and you shouldn't let the strong fish smell deter you. It's the best seafood vendor in the Heights and they will do everything to a fish that I don't want to do (scale, gut, filet) if you want them to for no extra charge. The prices are reasonable too and they have some live fish options for those who are interested... ”

“ This place re-opened and is now called "235 Fish Market." So far they have a good selection of seafood from shrimps, squids, octopus, clams, mussels, porgy, flounder, butter fish, etc. They also sell several East & Southeast Asian vegetables, spices and condiments. ”

“ The freshness of the seafood here is something that keeps bringing me back. This is a Chinatown style fish market with some produce. What they stock is amazing because if you're looking for a quick way to make an inexpensive and healthy meal 555 is all you need. They run out of oysters fairly quickly and are at high demand here. So get here early if you are looking for a popular item. I can't get enough of their selection and service. Very nice and unpretentious place. ”

“ 555 is a godsend! I wanted a place to get seafood in the area so bad. Seafood is hard to come by in the Heights. And you have to be crazy to get any meat from Stop and Shop All fish here is very fresh. They got live tilapia, catfish, lobster, crab, and other fish. The fish selection is great: never frozen trout, rainbow trout, porgy, snapper, tile fish, and more. They also got never frozen salmon fillet and steaks for $6.99/lb, and they are delicious. Of course you can get shellfish and squid as well! The shop also sells some produce and cooking ingredients. And if you are not up to cooking you can buy prepared fish (it seems like it is mostly fried). I have not tried the prepared fish, next time. Most importantly, prices cannot be beat for selection and quality. You'll be paying more at Shop Rite for worse quality, and you'll be paying A LOT more for same quality at places like Whole Foods or Morton Williams. Think Chinatown seafood prices and quality. Not to mention, everyone there is super friendly and helpful. ”
