Bucks County Seafood Opening in Dublin, PA

Does anyone know anything about the Seafood store opening in Dublin, PA, across from Lumbertos. Is it open yet? Is the Seafood Fresh? Worth a try or try to avoid?

    We're going to give it another shot, but a few weeks ago hubby purchased salmon and fresh scallops.

    The scallops...about half of them had the muscle still on them, the abductor? Or the stomach, I forget what it's called. They were $13 or $17 a lb, so while I'm willing to pay a premium price for seafood, I wasn't thrilled I was paying for uncleaned seafood. Ditto with the salmon, fresh, but a TON of bones in it still.

        Definitely don't avoid this Dublin fare!
        We missed it for 3 months, and now plan to go back every week.
        Conch chowder medium spice w/ delicious veg, great flounder,scallops and the best crab cake we've had since Maryland.
        Next time I'm grabbing clams for steaming.

        Stopped by to check it out a couple weeks ago...had a sample of their conch coup/stew...fantastic...took some home to have for supper....as good as I had in the islands. They also had a nice selection of fresh fish (and we were there on a Sunday)...Asked if they would be carrying fresh blue crabs, they said they would. Bought some snapper, very fresh and good price. Glad to have a new fish store in the area.

          I live in the area and know the manager of this new seafood place. Although they are new, the products and recipes are from another Seafood business that has been around for many years. So alot of these may taste familiar and are not original as advertised.

            Yes, they are open. We just purchased some scallops, Salmon, Stripped Bass, crab cakes and homemade coleslaw. The seafood was fresh, the crab cake is all crab!!! No filler no heavy mayo.

              Really?! Great, thanks for the update. I wasn't sure if they were indeed open or still renovating. I will stop by this weekend and let you know how it goes. Thanks!
