Fishtown Seafood has the best oyster selection in Philadelphia. From Atlantic Canada through New England, New Jersey and all the way down to Chesapeake Bay we offer top quality East Coast Oysters. Our rotating selection of oysters allows you to try something different each time you come in. Don't forget our weekend special: $50 for 12 Oysters & Caviar/Roe
Sushi & Sashimi Quality Fish
Sushi made in-house fresh daily, M-F available at both locations.
Did you know there is no legal definition for sushi grade fish? Sushi refers to the rice not the fish.
When it comes to fish for raw consumption sashimi quality is the correct term. Stop by the shop and learn more about our high quality sashimi quality selections.
TInned Fish
We could fill the entire shop with tinned fish but instead we choose to carry products that we feel good about. Through our experience working at and with non-profits we are able to extensively research species, fishing practices and cannery standards to bring you products that not only taste awesome, but are responsibly sourced.
Scallops, Mussels & Clams
Our scallops come from the Maine inshore State waters fishery. They are true dayboat scallops by law and they have no added moisture. Once landed they are Super Frozen to -76 degrees. Our mussels are from the pristine waters of Mount Desert Island, Maine. The sustainable Dutch style farming that is used is an environmentally friendly process that yields plump and flavorful mussels.
Our littleneck clams are from Reval Island Virginia. Stop in to see if we are currently carrying middle neck or cherrystones.
Super Frozen
Super Frozen is the secret to the freshest possible seafood. When frozen to -76 degrees Fahrenheit the cell structure remains relatively unchanged and the decomposition process completely stops. Also, this allows us to have tuna that is not treated with Carbon Monoxide gas.
At Fishtown Seafood, we avoid commonly used chemicals like Carbon Monoxide and Sodium Tripolyphosphate in our chilled and frozen seafood and aquaculture products.
