About Cross Bay Sea Shell Fish Market

This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.
Asian grocery stores and supermarkets stock ingredients, snacks and household goods that general American supermarkets often do not carry, organized by category rather than by country of origin in most stores. Produce and live or fresh seafood sections are usually at the back or side of the store, and weekend mornings bring the largest crowds and freshest restock. Many larger Asian supermarkets include a hot deli or food court counter selling prepared meals by the pound or as fixed plates, useful for a quick lunch while shopping. Labels are frequently bilingual or untranslated, so store staff can usually help locate a specific ingredient if you ask. Cash, cards and mobile pay are all commonly accepted at larger chains; smaller specialty shops may be cash-preferred.

This fish market is the best fish market in Brooklyn. I walked in for the first time, and I automatically felt like I was a regular customer. The owner and staff are very professional and they cater to your needs. They are very informative and honest about their deliveries. If what you want is not in the store, the owner will make sure to fill your request in a timely manner. If it is out of season, the owner will share the information with you and will not send you on a wild goose chase. They are simply the best, I appreciate having them in Brooklyn.

Friendly service and seemed like they get good business. Not a huge selection of product. Big set of freezer items if needed.
