I finally got a chance to stop here and WOW, I'm impressed! I was immediately greeted and directed to the fresh fish area. The fish could not look fresher! I was asked to select my fish and they would cut it up any way I like. Fish were filleted to perfection. Not a bone or scale was found at the dinner table. I stopped going to Golden Rule after an employee pressured me to get the precut fillets and was annoyed when I asked him to clean and fillet the fish I had chosen.

I havenāt had seafood this fresh since I left Puerto Rico! Open Sea delivers exactly what it promises ā Daily Fresh Fish from the Ocean to the Table. I had the red snapper, fish croquettes, and their amazing fish soup ā every bite was bursting with flavor and prepared with true care.
It was so good, Iām even bringing some home with me back to Tampa. Thatās how worth it this place is! If youāre anywhere near the area, do yourself a favor and stop by. The quality, seasoning, and authenticity brought back memories of island cooking.
Also, a heads up: they close at 6:00 PM, not 8:00 PM like Google Maps currently says ā donāt miss out by arriving late!
Canāt wait to come back. Highly, highly...

They charge around 3-4 dollars per pound to fry. The staffer told me that the wait would be 1 hour to fry my fish because there were 3 orders in front of me and they only had one fryer working. Total disappointment. So you can get any appetizers because those too had to be fried. Place is overpriced and dirty. Flies everywhere and those 2 ladies weren't washing their hands. Waste of...
