Nothing beats the quality, taste, knowledge and customer service at Bardales.
I’ve been a Facebook follower before they opened their storefront. It was worth the wait.
They have a smaller display case than a typical store but they offered a variety of seafood. The place was very clean and neat. And surprisingly didn’t have a fishy smell.
Customer service was excellent at the store and over the phone. The owner even mentioned that if he didn’t have an item at the store he could always try to get it from his processing facility.
This is the freshest seafood in the state and it is truly the best. Straight from the boats to here in Indy. No middle man. The prices are not as steep as grocery stores but quality is the best.
I tried the stone crabs, patagonia salmon, shrimp (no shells and deveined, and the seafood chowder.
The salmon and shrimp are some of the best I’ve had! They didn’t have a weird texture nor were they slimy. I found their seafood easier to cook and monitor while cooking vs frozen or previously frozen seafood.
As for the seafood chowder, I wish I ordered more! I didn’t realize until I was at the store that they offered premade items. Highly recommend for a quick dinner!
This was my first time eating stone crabs and the gentleman at the counter was very helpful and let me know how I should eat and prepare them. I give the crabs a...

Located right off the Monon Trail, Bardales Seafood (online it’s called BroadRipple Seafood Market) is a treasure trove for seafood enthusiasts! Nestled in an unassuming little spot, this place serves up some of the freshest fish I’ve ever tasted.
I was delighted to find out they prepare fresh fish to order. My husband and I decided to take home some fresh red snapper for dinner, and it was absolutely delicious! As for our meals at the restaurant, I opted for the salmon while my husband had the grouper sandwich.
Both were prepared to perfection—flaky, flavorful, and incredibly fresh.
I’ll admit, I experienced a bit of sticker shock initially. However, once we tasted the food, it was clear we got what we paid for.
Fresh, high-quality seafood is hard to come by these days, and Bardales Seafood exceeded our expectations.
I don’t write reviews often, so when I do… it’s worth your time. If you’re in search of fresh, delectable fish, look no further.

Read moreYou really gotta mess up for me to post a bad review, like my man I went to the fish boil with my 80 year old neighbor, and now she and i both got pretty bad food poisoning. I've been going here a while, but to pay $164.00 for 2 people to get severe food poisoning is pretty bad. Now, in the back of my head, im like, did she and i catch parasites? I'm also now worried that my 80 year old neighbor might have to go to the hospital because I took her to this fish boil. Like, yall for real?
