Green Fish Seafood Market

Best kept secret in Chinatown! $5/pound for crab is an absolute steal. Fresh from Santa Cruz, I was happy to hear that it was local and fresh. Look at that tub! He helped picked out 3 nice crabs- ended up being $30. After you purchase they can clean it and cut it for you behind the seafood counter.They also had live frog (?!) and Manila clams! Love chinatown

This a great shop for groceries if you're not picky. Don't come here expecting to complete your grocery checklist. Typically this shop sells vegetables that are in season. There is s small section of bargain items, which are past their prime but still edible if cooked the day of purchase. These are good deals these days with prices rising for everything for every daily essential. For meat items, the do sell beef and chicken bones for soup. In the middle section there's a freezer for presliced meats, ie lamb, beef, and pork, which is great for hot pot. And in the back there's the seafood selection, where you'll see some in water tanks and some laid out on a bed of ice.

If you need produce, fruits, meats and seafood, you can probably find what you need at this market located on 8th St between Webster and Harrison. Outside, the store had large displays of fruits and vegetable on the sidewalk and on curb lane. The prices appear to be less that other stores in the area and the quality of the products are first quality as well. Sometimes you will find some great deals.Inside, they have display cases of packaged fresh meats, freezer with frozen meats and seafood section with live fish and shellfish in tanks and fish displayed on beds of crushed ice. There are three registers to pay and sometimes it can be slow many customers are checking out many items. But this is a good market to get your produce, veggies, meats and seafood.

My go-to for fruits and vegetables. Decent array of options. Prices are good. No fuss, no complications. Pay cash with the ladies at the register and you're on your way.

The best place for fresh Dungeness crab when the season opens. But get there right when they open to avoid the lines. I also go here for regular groceries and stop by to see what fruits and veggies look good. Sometimes they have a fresh and unique catch like live prawns. They also have a specific fridge area with all dumpling ingredients right when you walk in.

Fresh fish and some dead in the water. I asked for halibut filets and got filets of tails. First time I went their the files were beautiful.I'm not knowledgeable enough, and I don't speak Hispanic. So it's particularly my fault.

I really wanted to like this place, but I was not impressed with their Covid protocols, which are pretty much nonexistent on the weekend. Too many people inside and nobody observed any social distancing while waiting in line to pay for their purchases. The store is very narrow, so it's very hard to control people when they get in. The Dungeness crabs that I bought were very good and the service at the counter was polite. I saw a bushel of blue crabs, but they all looked deceased. When I come during the weekdays it's less crowded, and it's much safer. They accept credit cards which is not a given in Oakland Chinatown. They seem to have a wide range of seafood, and some vegetables out front.

THE PRICE OVER THE PHONE ISNT THE PRICE IN STORE. This is not the first time this has happened. I called yesterday and I was told $6.99 lb. Go this morning $8.99. Like WTH. If I hadn't been on the hook for a party I wouldn't have bothered and looked else where. The three stars are for the quality and service. The guys don't speak much English but they know what to do. The crabs are cut and cleaned to my liking and always fresh and big.

BEWARE!!!!! Zero Stars!!!! I went here and bought some crab. I paid with EBT card and they had a skimmer on their machine. They skimmed all of my money for food off my card and more. Do not use anything other than cash if you go here!!!!!!

zero stars. prices are reasonable but it won't be reasonable anymore if you buy directly from the owner. beware and stay away from him. he harasses his employees and customers, and cheats them too. he is so rude and pushy to the point that it makes it difficult to push back. lesson learned, never again ---- bought some crabs and told him to give me nice, live ones. tells me rudely, they are all alive, they jus came in this morning. he was so quick in putting the crabs in the bag that i didn't have time to check the quality. it felt strange as i knew the owner can be shady. i should have pushed back but too late, my bad, gave him the benefit of the doubt. came home with one crab, barely moving, almost dead. all crabs did not have a complete set of legs!!! go somewhere else who will treat you better and not scam you. avoid that owner eric!
