Atlantic Coast Seafood — Attraction in Jacksonville

I had no idea this place existed until I did a search for fresh seafood. The location is tucked away behind a Walgreens but I found it easily using GPS. There is plenty of parking in a lighted lot. I walked in and my first impression was how busy they were. They have ample employees so I didn't have to wait but a few minutes. A very polite and hardworking man assisted me with my purchase of 30 lbs of fresh shrimp. I was buying a large amount for a Low Country Boil and they had no problem filling my order. I had shopped around and their pricing was comparable to the other local companies. There was a big selection in various sizes as well. While this kind gentleman was collecting my large order, I looked around the market. There was an impressive variety of iced fresh seafood; all kind of freshwater and saltwater fish, squid, oysters, clams, shrimp, etc. I really liked that the pricing was very visible, so didn't have to ask. For you fisher persons, there are fishing supplies as well. Once my order was bagged and iced, it was weighed at the register where I was able to see the weights and price. A pleasant young woman rang me up after assuring everything was okay. There was a small selection of lemons, limes, batters near the register too. Once my purchase was complete, the same friendly, smiling gentleman carried my purchase to the car for me. Altogether I was extremely impressed with this seafood market and will be going there for my fresh...

The cashier/owners daughter..VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!!! I went in to buy 3 large frozen crab clusters. When she went to weigh the bag I noticed that it was 4 or 5 single/loose crab legs added in addition to the 3 clusters I asked for. I kindly explained to her that I only wanted 3 whole crab clusters & asked if she could remove the extra single/loose legs that she added to my bag on her own. She then explained to me that legs break off clusters sometimes during shipment and that if they didn't add a few broken legs to each customers bag, they'd be left with a lot of loose crab legs. I told her that I didn't want to pay for the loose legs that she added, just the 3 clusters as I asked. She got upset and told me "Fine, we'll just raise our crab leg prices"... The comment was very unnecessary and rude! The seafood is so good I'd be willing to pay more if they did raise prices due to that matter! But to tell me that so rudely...I've been a customer for over 8 years & have watched her boss around and disrespect other workers but never thought it would be customers. I'll be looking for another seafood market in the...

Unprofessional. Someone needs to give their daughter cashier a lesson on customer courtesy. I've been spending my money at this place for the entire fifteen years I've lived in the neighborhood and the situation I experienced yesterday was ridiculous. I went in to purchase a pre-cooked shrimp tray and pointed out the one I wanted. The price on the carton read $9.99, however one of the employees realized after I had selected the tray that he had accidentally inverted the price on that tray with another tray that read $11.99. It would have been common courtesy and even more so common sense to sell me the shrimp for $9.99 as printed on the container. Instead these unprofessional, money-hungry people argued that if I wanted the shrimp I had to pay $11.99 even though it was their employees mistake of writing the wrong amount on the carton...how smart is that losing a customer over two...
