Have always had great, well-priced seafood from here particularly when you’re after something specific like smaller/medium squid, red spot whiting (both frozen), blue swimmer crabs. However our last experience was not great. We bought huge prawns, SA Coffin Bay oysters and 7 Blue Swimmer crabs and some whiting fillets. Crabs were steamed/shallow boiled with salt in a big pot. Prawns done in a garlic butter. Oysters a la natural. Whiting fillets in a green curry. All seemed good but dad felt unwell and threw up about an hour after eating.

Read moreMy husband's love of somked salmon sent me on a mission to search for a more affordable way to have this smokie fish on his breakfast menu more often than once a fortnight. My mission was a success and more. I have found the pot of gold at the end of the seafood rainbow. Their prices are great, 100g smoked salmon under $5, salmon for sashimi "a portion for 2" $15, DIY seafood basket for two under $12 and there are many, many more bargains for your picking. Today's live mud crabs was only $40ish a kg. Seafood always fresh, shop does not smell, always clean and welcoming. Staffs are happy to help and answer your questions. You will find fresh fish, lobsters, oysters under $20 for a dozen, and a must try is their Japanese squid salad (ready to eat) tray under $8. Prawns, many different size and variety, so fresh, great...
Read moreThe customer service is terrible. I waited for 10 minutes at the display window in front of the prawns whilst holding my 3 year old. During this time they served everyone around me, including people that had just entered the store. The real deal breaker was when they asked who was next and looked at a guy who was standing behind me who then had to have me move out of the way so he could see the prawns. That’s when I decided to put everything back and leave because they were clearly not going to serve me. It’s obvious that the person who is standing at the glass is next not the person waiting behind. The store wasn’t even busy but they deliberately served everyone around me. I will not be returning and instead took my...
