Ocean Odyssey Inland — Restaurant in Edmonton

I am not a fish eater, however my wife is. We went on a Saturday and the door was opened before the advertised business hours. That made me a fan right off the start.

Once inside my wife commented on the great variety of products. Everything was nicely displayed with prices clearly marked.

Not knowing much about seafood I thought the prices seemed high. She commented that if the quality was good then the extra cost was worth it compared to buying fish elsewhere.

After a few minutes a nice young man asked if we need assistance. Sure we said. What fish would be good for pan fried sweet and sour recipes? He offered suggestions based on the fact that certain fish are firmer and would not fall apart during cooking. Nice. I thought. Someone that actually knew his stuff. These days people have no idea what they are selling. Sad but true.

We purchased product based on his recommendation. Later in the day we cooked the fish and I was pleased to find the whole house didn't have an overpowering fish smell. My wife and son were in their glory eating their sweet and sour fish. While I ate something else. They commented how good the flavor and texture was. Much better than other fish we had previously bought from other sources.

So we now have a new source of seafood for them and we will be regular customers. As for me... I noticed they sell large containers of local honey. That's a reason for me to look forward to a return visit.

Support this fine establishment. They provide good quality products and deserve...

it's my 2nd 5 stars review for this place.

by far the best seafood shopping place we found in this seafood desert town. most of the seafood you found in the stores are next to garbage in our standard. we want nothing but clean and safe to eat seafood. couldn't believe here in Edmonton supermarkets are selling almost rotten fishes, crabs stored in dirty water, etc. we found this store by accident cause it's not on a busy road. we received good service there and gained some extra knowledges too about the seafood. although I did not figure out why bison meat is available in a seafood store but it is not what I care anyway.

highly recommended.

don't expect you can find live fish swimming in crystal clear sea water like they do in Asia in this town, this shop probably is the most freshest seafood you can find.

I like they put my oysters in small boxes with ice on the top. keep them...

Our experiences at Ocean Odyssey have been nothing but positive and engaging with Chef Dan providing us with knowledge on the seafood he brings in and the best ways to enjoy it. We've had different varieties of fresh seafood including oysters, clams, and mussels, and they've opened up beautifully upon cooking to create some of the most delicious dishes we've had anywhere! We're so fortunate to have access to such high quality ingredients here at home, thanks to people like Dan bringing them in! There's also a wide variety of frozen seafood, such as shrimp and lobster meat, and house-prepared products, such as fish stock, that I'm excited to use in the future! Worth including this place in your regular rotation of purveyors and producers to support in the city. If we don't use them, we lose them! Show them...
