Cove Fish Market - La Plata

After buying sub-par or old fish in supermarkets I searched the area for a fish market. I was fortunate enough to find The Cove Fish Market. The selection of fish isn't extensive (but you can always request items for another day-the owner works with you) but the fish has always been fresh and even looks far better than at the super market.The Cove recently went to a bit of a redesign, which made the fish counter seem smaller but the seating area is nicer. The last time I visited we hung out having food and drinks and we had just stopped to buy fish. The Cove is definitely a worthy visit. Also, I special-ordered gator just for fun for a BBQ and it was delicious. This store, the owner, and his team rocks.

First time visit. Drove 45 minutes in traffic on Monday April 3rd. Arrived 1pm. Normal hours. Sign on door says CLOSED. Cove Fish Market just lost this customer forever. A complete waste of my time gas.Response from the owner 3 hours agoWe do apologize, but unforseen circumstances today did not allow us to have fresh fish, as we do order daily to have the freshest options available for our customers. We encourage you to follow us on Facebook for daily updates.Re reply: Facebook is hazardous to health. I deleted the app/account years ago. Cove Fish Market wasted my time!

Recently opened in the restaurant and bar area. Delicious and super fresh shell fish and more. The mussels were amazing, and the raw oysters beat any of their high end competitors. A cool little spot.

First visit. I met the owner, and he was helpful in selecting fresh fish. The place was very clean and neat with a rw oyster bar and seating. The bar is open in the evenings. It has 4 stars because I have cooked the fish yet to give it a taste test.
