    I always enjoy stopping in here. The older gentleman is a hoot. Asked him to leave the skin on my black drum-- he replies "you're to young to be this Old School." Quality product. Decent prices.

    Great seafood, friendly staff, decent prices. We bought some tuna steaks and oysters here the other day and it was all delicious. You'll know you've arrived at the place when you see a bunch of food trucks parked in front. Be prepared to dodge potholes on your way over though. This place is located in an industrial park where the roads are hideous.

    These fish mongers are awesome. I've been now four times and every time the fish that they have is very fresh. This is not a place to buy cooked fish. They sell fish they catch that day. They also sell the best shrimp.

    The person who owns this place was very helpful and very cordial. His son is also very helpful too. Whenever I come back to visit from Dallas I am sure to stop by and buy even more fish since I can't get any in dallas
