Cool place/atmosphere with large selection of seafood. I really liked being there. Workers were friendly/helpful. I thought what I had (crab cake sandwich & clam chowder) was good but not great. Will definitely come back to try more things when we are in town again.

I always get a #1 with a pound of shrimp and extra broccoli. I just hate this location because there's never anywhere to park. The food is always on point. Never had a problem here.

When I first started going here it was amazing! Good food at a reasonable price. Well not anymore! For the last couple of years the price has more than doubled and the portions are less than half. More times than not I have had under cooked fish or fries or both. I order the halibut fish and chips which is now $25.50 if you order an extra piece of fish. I had to start ordering the extra piece because I can't get full anymore with what they give me. By the way I weigh 155 lbs it doesn't take a lot to get me full but it's the quality that's gone down hill lately. I just got home with my order that was under cooked again! Both the fish and the Frye's so I called and let them know and the owner told me if I don't like it don't come back . So I won't! I just want all of you hard working people out there to know that this isn't the same place that Guy rated so highly Year's ago on diner's drive-ins and dives.

You can really taste a difference. The fish is fresh for the fish and chips. Lots of sauces to pick from and who doesn’t love a good waffle fry sort of our go to place when we drive through Eugene.

Looks like a hole in the wall but it's full of fresh fish and flavors. I got the halibut cheeks which I've never seen except when I was deep sea fishing. I also got the Fisherman soup which was super delicious, they have sandwiches and a wide range of beer selections. The line started to grow so make sure you give yourself plenty of time.

The clam chowder is the best there is. It is a little expensive, but well worth it. The parking lot is small and so is the seating area. However the quality of food cancelled out everything else.

They gave me a free order of shrimp, but it was still equivalent of how much they normally used to put shrimp altogether so they gave me one for free, but really didn’t because that’s how much would normally be in the regular pan

We rate the clam chowder here as our favorite in Oregon! A quart of clam chowder is not much more than a bowl in some places. We love the fish tacos, too. It's a great place to eat, take out or buy fresh seafood to prepare yourself.

Stopped in for a late lunch early dinner. Not only do they sell fresh seafood, but also have a pretty decent menu. This is not a traditional restaurant as seating AND parking are limited but the food is really good. Had the crab ravioli which was good, nice blended mix of cream and tomatoes, also had the crab mac and cheese. The New England stye clam chowder is good, had it in the bread bowl. To be honest should have had more thicker consistency but had a good flavor. They also provided samples, and the salmon sticks and salmon summer sausage were good. Staff was friendly. Prices seemed to be average for the area. If we were to be in the area, we would stop again. In speaking to a few locals, they were consistent in compliments of the restaurant and said that we made a good choice to eat there.

Sought a fish place with a good Yelp rating. The Fisherman's Market came up, so we headed over. It has a unique layout but not bad - very casual and in no way formal. Ordered fish tacos and Rockfish sandwich and a side bowl of clam chowder. Tacos and Rockfish sandwich were very good. We enjoyed the sauce on the taco so much we bought a container of it to take with us when leaving. The clam chowder at many small pieces of potato with the skin still on it, which we liked very much. Unfortunately, the sense that there were any clams in a clam chowder did not exist. This was more like a good potato chowder. Be sure you use the restroom someplace before arriving. The restrooms here are outside the restaurant area, require getting a key to get into, and are disgusting. Would we return? Because we enjoy the tacos and the Rockfish sandwich so much, we would come back to try them again or other things. We would pass on the clam chowder and would use the restroom before heading to the restaurant.

Stepping into this place is like being on a dock next to the seaworthy fishing boats! It smells of fresh fish and the water tanks containing live shellfish. But it is a tight fit! There are a small number of tables inside and a few closely positioned tables outside. The seating makes little difference. The food is amazing. The chowders were filled with clams or salmon in a heavy creamy base seasoned perfectly! The fish tacos were a bargain. The portions are huge. The fish was very well prepared and filled with perfect combinations of toppings. You cannot go wrong with the crayfish pie! The crust is flaky and the filling was perfect. Unfortunately, we filled up on tacos, crayfish pie, and chowder before the enormous container of seafood boil arrived! Seafood gluttony! Clams, mussels, shrimp, sausage, crab, crayfish, potatoes, corn on the cob all smothered in superb buttery seasoning ! What a delicious mess we made!

Don't let the outside fool you - this is a great to either buy fish and cook it yourself or stop in and eat inside. We loved everything we ordered here: captains platter, fish and chips (halibut), shrimp, etc. We even bought a few things to go. These people know how to do fish and they know about fish, too! Highly recommend and definitely hope to return some day when we're back in the area.

I always get my food from this location. Customer Service varies depending on the staff that is working, on the time and day of your visit! VERY LIMITED PARKING! Seeing that this location is connected to a gas station. People have a tendency to park at the pumps to go in, order, and wait in their food. They have security there to attend to these issues. However, they don't get ANY RESPECT for trying to do thier job, to maintain the operation in an orderly fashion!! I wish PEOPLE had more common sense these days, instead of thinking the world revolves around them!!! We are all trying to get our food and go!!!

Stopped in here quite by chance while driving to Portland and at first thought it couldn't serve food. But it does! Extremely friendly staff, and a long list of choices. Had a grilled tuna burger AND clam chowder and they were simply fantastic. My traveling companion had the crabcake sandwich that was declared very good even though it was not a Maryland crab cake, Pretty high praise indeed Picnic tables inside and out and some off-street parking. Found it on the google machine and did not disappoint, in fact it gladdened us for the rest of our journey,

Everyone really enjoyed their meals and the fries and slaw that came with each meal was also delish! It was obvious the staff enjoy their jobs. A fun group! The only negative was that the tables were nasty as was the floor around them. It was 6:30 pm but not super swamped.

Saw an employee nearby the counter slicing up a whole tuna - you don't get any fresher than this.
