    I love the poached salmon salad w/ dill and tomatoes! It's delicious on tortilla chips, crackers or as a sandwich. Try the blackened tilapia sandwich! The chilean sea bass, salmon and tuna are great!

    Best fresh seafood around. Always good info on what's good & how to prepare it. Oysters, clams, mussels & asstd seafood salads round out a great selection. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

    Dirk's Fish, best known for their tilapia & salmon is great in quantity & affordable. Check in w @bellycard for rewards like a free cooking class & the "Dress like Dirk Get a Free T-Shirt" offer.
