I’ll make sure to give you all the best tips for a 💯 hassle free experience at Dampa Seaside Market ⭐️ First thing to take note - make sure to buy the ingredients yourself. It’s a great experience to personally choose the freshest food you are craving for. Be careful of those who offer to make the purchases for you because you won’t be completely assured your getting your money’s worth AND their service comes at a HEFTY price point 😅 Second - Weekends are always a good time to drop by Dampa but make sure to come early and if possible avoid the peak hours of lunch/dinner. Parking is very limited in this area so if you’re lucky enough to squeeze in one, well and good but if not you can always opt for the parking across. Third - make a beeline for Seazar’s! Ambience is somewhat old but the food cannot be compared to the other restaurants within the market. Highly recommended are: Halaan (clams/mussels soup) Adobong Pusit (i order this everytime and you’ll know why 😋😋) Crab (Sweet Chili) Scallops (Baked with a generous dollop of cheese too) Hope these tips help you out and always make sure to be vigilant with your belongings especially at night. It still very much is a Market Place wherein Security is not as tight as should be.

Very unique place for someone who's visiting the Philippines, or even a local. It is definitely worth visiting for the experience. Basically the first step is walk through the market, choose a vender, select and purchase your fresh seafood. Second you select one of many restaurants in the market to cook up your purchase. My suggestion would be to walk through the entire market to see what looks appetizing and ask what the prices are. Also as you walk through, people from the local restaurants will show a menu of how they prepare dishes and the price by weight on cooking your seafood selections. Google reviews for the restaurants located in the market can be helpful. Choose the restaurant, or take it home to prepare yourself. Finally enjoy! There are so many varieties of fish, shrimp, lobster, scallops, crab etc, to name them all. Just mention to the eager vendors and restaurateurs that you're just looking, don't feel pressured to make a purchase and enjoy the experience. At the end you will have indulged in some of the most delectable seafood ever.

Very fresh selection of all types of fish, huge shrimp, shellfish and more. Seafood heaven ❤❤❤❤❤🍻🍻🍻🍻❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍🥳🥳🥳🥳🍺🍺🍺🍺 live shrimp, live lobster, Live fish, live clams, live muscles, a lot of living things worthy of cooking and eating. Everyone we came with was very happy and excited. It was like going to SeaWorld except for everything was edible. This place is a must. The floors are kinda wet and fishy but thats what makes the place interesting maybe don't wear nice shoes lol. Definitely bring your appetite and leave happy. And very worth the money. Don't get intimidated by the merchants trying to grab your attention they just want to sell you very fresh fish. I recommend you go to SIS RESTAURANT they will cook everything you buy. In Dampa seaside you buy the fish at their market then you bring what you purchased to a restaurant where they cook your raw food into heavenly good dishes for a fee which is by the pound or kilo. Worth the trip and worth the traffic and time. Dont pass this place without trying.

Last year I would say this is a great place to buy seafood. I’ll tell you things have changed for the worse here. It’s a seafood market for scammers. 1. They sell fresh seafood for 35% more than the regular local markets. 2. Watch the weighing scale since they’ll add 1/2 kilo to your bill and intentionally overcharge you. 1 piece of crab weighing 800 grams will go up to 1.5kg in their eyes so be careful. 3.After bargaining and getting 55cents discount, they’ll ask you for $2-5 USD tip. 4. COUNT YOUR CHANGE. You’ll find out they’ll rip you off by $4-10 by shortchanging you. Go to other places for your seafood. This place is a scammer’s paradise. You’ll end up ruining your seafood dinner if you come here. I paid the equivalent of $40 for this piece of crab. You’ll be better off going to restaurants in the mall.

Takes patience to dine in this area, from parking, shopping the wet market, to choosing the restaurants, but all worth the effort in the end. Crabs were fresh, fat, and meaty, and we opted for buttered one similar to Singapore style (without the buns). Note: if you shop the seafood yourself, please haggle starting from the lowest. If you let the restaurants shop for you, there’s the risk they can add more in addition to their cooking charge. We shopped for the seafood, dined and had them cooked in one of the oldest restaurants - total price per person is 2,000. Breakdown: 1,200 for the wet market; 800 cooking, drinks, and rice. Dishes: Chili Crab, Baked Scallops, Steamed Lapu Lapu, Baked Oysters, Shrimp Gambas style, fried rice.
