How Can We Help You?
Where does your seafood come from?
We strive to provide a wide variety of fresh, sustainable seafood from all over the world, including many local favorites. Our menus change regularly based on commercial fishing season calendars and taking into account current fishery management so as to ensure no species of fish with populations under stress are ever on our menus.
Do you sell fresh seafood to take home?
Yes! Our retail market is an experience of its own not to be missed. There is a retail market in every Fish Market – be sure to stop by after your meal. To learn more, click here.
What is the Top of the Market?
Top of the Market is a fine dining experience located literally on “top of the market” at our San Diego location and featuring a chef-driven menu in a white tablecloth setting. If you’re looking for a more intimate ambiance at our San Diego restaurant, this is where you want to be. Learn more about the Top of the Market here.
