Review Summary

Poissonnerie La Mer is widely praised for fresh seafood, including fish, shrimp, lobster, mussels and oysters, with overall high quality and excellent freshness. The store offers convenient free parking, reasonable prices for the quality, and friendly, helpful staff who explain options in detail. Oysters and other products are consistently strong, though there are occasional hiccups such as a price discrepancy resolved quickly by email or a request to cut tuna not always accommodated; these issues are usually handled politely. The salmon, cod and mackerel are highlighted, with some enjoying items prepared to order and others cooking at home, and there are notes about good imported products as well. Some reviews mention a somewhat limited selection and a small inner space, and a few feel the variety can be less exciting for customers used to Asian markets, while others note a recent arrival of Quebec lobster. Advice on shopping times suggests Monday or Tuesday mornings for the best variety. The overall impression is that Poissonnerie La Mer remains a top choice for freshness, price, and breadth of offerings, though ongoing attention to labeling bilingual items could improve accessibility.

The salmon steak was well wrapped separately, fish were excellent!

The place is nice & clean, but the options felt quite limited. The highlight for me was definitely the friendly staff who took the time to explain everything in detail. I visited on a Saturday around 12 pm, & when I asked, they mentioned that the best time to find a good variety of fish is Monday or Tuesday around 11 am-12 pm. Prices were reasonable, with different types of salmon available. Overall, it's decent, but for people coming from Asia, this market may not feel very exciting compared to what they're used to.

Impeccable service as entering the shop. Picked bluefin tuna & king salmon for home made sushi & sashimi, it was literally butter, top grade sushi normally in restaurants. Definitely recommend, will GO BACK
