Wonderful selection of fresh seafood. Their staff is very helpful and pleasant.When I went, I was looking for oysters. Literally no grocery store that I went into had them. Not even Super G. I finally did an online search for seafood places and came across Central Fish Market. It is definitely out of the way and don't blink or you'll drive right by it. It's not a huge place. However, there's no denying the quality of the seafood. The oysters were shucked and super fresh. They were absolutely beautiful, large gulf oysters. It made me a little homesick for the Gulf, but only a little. I can't wait to go back and see what else they have to offer.

I went here bc I wanted to cook some fresh fish. There is a small parking lot in the back. This place is small. But it has what you need. They had a variety of fresh fish such as perch, whiting, flounder. They had shrimp, scallops, and oysters. I ordered by how many pieces I wanted. I just wanted 4 scallops and a few pieces of fish. They had a variety of seasonings, breading and oils on the wall. They also had tartar sauces, remoulade, and cocktails sauces. If you are looking to get some fresh seafood items instead of going to the grocery store check this place out. The staff was nice. I was asking her suggestions on a few items and she was helpful. When I ordered my fish the staff asked me if I wanted my fish cooked. I denied, but it's nice to know that it's an option. This place isn't that big of you want some fresh seafood check this place out.

Terrible service, racially biased service, and prices are too high...higher than Harris Teeter or Super G Mart. Sometimes the fish are frozen....increasing the weight.

I cannot believe what I experienced today, (12/14/24) at Central Fish Market! I've been a long-time customer of theirs so I am truly shocked by this experience. A Latina woman walked in 'after' I did waiting to be helped. There were only 2 women workers in the front and they were both cleaning fish. The short, chubby Latina woman started talking Spanish to the lady that came in 'after' I did and started getting her some shrimp. This bothered me that she decided to help someone that came in after I did but I let it go and did not say a word about the blatant disrespect. After she gave the woman her shrimp, she looked at me with a nasty smirk and turned around and started back cleaning the fish without saying a word to me! Everyone in the market was in disbelief at what she just did! I just walked out. Before I drove off, I called into the market and asked if a manager was on duty. The same rude woman answered the phone and told me NO and hung up on me! I called right back and asked her why she hung up on me and she stated because I asked for a manager and she told me one wasn't there, as if that was an acceptable reason to hang up on someone. The type of unprofessional and rude behavior this woman has is totally unacceptable and she should not be allowed to interact with any customers. Management should really think about how many customers she has ran off. She does not represent your business well at all and you should really think hard about keeping her on as a part of your team.
