Fish markets in North Jersey

Any recommendations for a fish market in Bergen/Passaic/Northern Essex that sells very fresh, top-quality seafood?

Corrado's in Wayne gets deliveries from the wonderful Peter's Fish Market. They have many great options.

I'm Looking for a really good fish market in upper passic county area..

anything else in west essex? I find whole foods overpriced and not fresh. My last two cod purchases have tasted of ammonia. Won't buy that again.

Has anyone tried the chinese market near home depot in east hanover?

FAIRWAY.

We always get our fish from pEters in midland park. If not there than off the hook. I believe they are the same family

I love Anchor Seafood on Kinderkamack Rd. in Montvale. Besides fresh fish they make and sell some really delicious prepared foods. I really like their lobster bisque, white clam sauce and their homemade herring in cream sauce.

Off The Hook is very good!! It is in De Pieros Farms in Montvale not Demarest farm!

Merci. I buy wholesale, so I go through Midland Park, but thanks for the correction!

Fairway in Paramus has a fabulous fish counter, large selection, top quality, fresh fish. Knowledgeable staff as well.

Denville Seafood is also very excellent if you are out in Morris County.

rarely disappointed w/ the fish mkt in downtown maywood (pleasant ave).

I swear by Off The hook in Demerest Farms. Their wholesale business is in Midland Park.

Pompton Seafood on Cannonball Rd (on the corner behind the old train station) is outstanding.

oops, that's in Pompton Lakes

Freeman's, Maplewood.

Whole Foods Market/Fresh Fields in Edgewater, Montclair or Millburn has the best! And also soon to open in Ridgewood.

I've been disappointed with the fish at Fresh Fields in Montclair ... not very fresh and overpriced.

Try Butch's Live lobster sales at 274 Third Avenue in Westwood, NJ. It used to be the The Emerson Fishtruck, but moved to a storefront. Was very good when it was the fish truck, have not been to Westwood (a little out of the way). See link posted below.

Peter's Fish Market
Godwin Ave. next to Sears Hardware
Midland Park
(first-hand info. -- very reliable and knowledgeable)

Butch's Live Lobster Sales (the old Emerson Fish Truck)
274 Third Ave.
Westwood
(on recommendation of many others)

I'll second Peter's. My parents live in the next town and they always get their fish from Peter's. The guys who work there do a great job preparing the fish (like ifyou want a whole fish gutted and scaled.) They'll also tell you how to cook it and it is always fresh and great quality.

Definitely Peter's and I'll go beyond talking about the quality. A few years back, I asked Steve Sr., over the phone for a price quote on lobster tails. He thought I asked for 3 oz. when I asked for 6 oz. He quoted the price for 3 oz., which is obviously less expensive. I put it in the budget for a non-profit event. Steve realized his mistake later, yet still stuck to that quoted price and delivered to me 6 oz. tails.

Lobster tails are always FROZEN.

And your point is?
