I purchased fresh shrimp, and, were my eyes closed, and if I were asked to smell what it was I purchased, I could not at all smell what it was. They had no smell and were very fresh. I will be returning to this very special spot.

Special thank you to Vincent, the owner who spent 25 mins expaining how to cook the octupus properly. Vin showed me how he processes the octupus when they arrive in from Spain, how he tenderizes them for his customers. Top quality, the store is immaculately clean. And most of all the octupus was delicious! Thank you Vin!

Went shopping here with Family for a Big Italian Christmas Eve dinner, pretty pricey, we spent almost $600 in cash only to come home to clean & steam the mussles ahead of time and saw there was barely any meat, & not all opened up. The meat inside was so pathetic they look like they were all deflated, (Look at pics) I've never seen mussles so nasty! Never shopping here again, what a waste of money! This will be the last time I shop here! I should have stuck to my usual fish markets in Brooklyn!

Excellent fresh octopus with varieties of shell fish and fish. The man was very helpful in showing us when we told him we are there for the first time. Will go again.

I love shopping here. The owner always takes his time to give me ideas on what to get and how to cook it. Genuine old school feeling and great fresh octopus and fish.

The best place to buy fresh ocupas for a really good price. They also have the best italian pasta.

Place has really great fish choices, especially if you're into raw seafood Apuglian style raw octopus, squid, sea urchins and mussels among many other cooking seafoods. Owner is really cool and explains any products in detail. Highly recommend for any seafood lover. Also has some non seafood Apuglian goodies.
