Pier 8 Seafood Market

I recently discovered this amazing ocean-side restaurant that blew me away. The food is absolutely delicious with a wide selection to choose from. The service is top-notch, with attentive and friendly staff. The atmosphere is perfect, offering ocean views and a relaxing ambiance. I highly recommend giving this place a try. It's everything you'd expect from a fantastic ocean-side dining experience.

Pick the seafood<==- they cook it on the spot " fried" that is... nice location on top the water, fish was great, fresh! Shrimp was excellent! Nice experience.... plenty of space = can bring a group/ share food! *** little higher price though so I recommend to share to make sure you don't buy 2much like us.Food: 5/5

The vibe here is so laid back, but in the best way possible! From the fresh seafood selections, made to order, the beautiful sunsets, lapping water right outside the way… the only thing better is the company you choose to keep while patronizing this awesome place! This place does not fail to deliver on the goods! Fresh, fresh, f-r-e-s-h!!!! We sometimes even cast our fishing rod right outside afterwards, making it the perfect ending to our evening. RECAP: The fried fish red snapper and flounder is our favorite, fried jumbo shrimp, and crispy fries are THE GO-TO.

At Pier 8 you select your own food to cook. It can be fish or shrimp. It took me about 20 minutes to get my food. The food was delicious and not too expensive. I wish the place was cleaner. It has a lot of potential if you update the inside and outside. Pier 8 is worth checking out!Food: 5/5

The food was great as usual. Went on a Tuesday this time and it was very not-crowded. They put up some reflective bird deterring decorations but the birds still came anyway; I kind of like them and think it adds to the experience

You walk in and immediately see raw fish on ice at the counter. You choose a fish and watch them plop it on a tray, cut it, and fry it up. It is definitely a fun experience. The food was good, but a little bland.Food: 4/5

I have been coming to this seafood market for years & have my chosen seafood cooked as fried or in tamarind soup/ sinigang, a filipino dish. I always bring a cooler for freshly cleaned, raw seafood for take-home. The red snapper sinigang with spinach is absolutely soothing for the soul. I love the fried oyster in cocktail sauce. It brings me back to our family traditional dish of Fish or chicken tamarind soup with rice to complement the dish. The place has a venue for special event. Its location on the bay creates a great outdoor ambience. Kid-friendliness: Very kid-friendly. The place is big, not space-constraint for little people.

Delicious, quick, on the water so we could watch the gulls flying around. Very fairly priced for the amount of food and the freshness. It's all counter service. Wish we'd brought a cooler to take some seafood home with us!Food: 5/5

The food is terrible and expensive. We thought we would give it a try, but we decided we would never go back. The fish, the calamari and the seasoning all tasted horrible - to say the least!Food: 1/5

Confusing experience for the first time. Hard to find a parking spot in the parking insufficient parking lot. No menu on the wall. What you do is order how much and the amount of the seafood item and they either fry it or boil it? I think? I could not understand the guy helping us. Then you get to the register and order rice, hush puppies, fries or onion rings. They give you a number and bring it to your picnic table. Food: My catfish had a hard skin that I was unable to cut through without a knife. They only provided plastic forks and spoons. The french fries were meaty but had no seasoning and no malt vinegar. The fried shrimp were butterflied but were not properly cleaned and many still had poop in them. Really gross that we had to clean them at the table. Great hush puppies!
