Reviews for Coastal Seafoods - St. Paul in St Paul, MN

Best place to get sushi grade fish for your sushis ???? they also have a restaurant so if you go at specific times, you can get... some food. In summer they have their patio open so you can sit and eat outside. Read more

I messaged them on Facebook and sent email off the webpage about my issue with a walleye filet purchase last sunday but zero... response. Your lack of a response conveys to me your lack of concern for the customer. The walleye I ended up with was pastSunday was spoiled. It had gross odor, slimy feel and very off flavor, to point of having to discard most of it. Paid a premiumprice for an low grade product. Pretty good experience in past, not sure what\'s up this time. Read more

I stopped in here this weekend when I wanted live lobster for lobster rolls that I was making. This was the only place that I... could find at the time that had what I wanted and it might be the only place in the twin cities that offers such a variety ofseafood. The parking lot is tight and limited but there were a few spots open when I arrived.\n\nThe staff was super awesome andfriendly, and the lady who was ringing up my order was great to talk to. A good experience like this not only brightens up myday but would make me a repeat customer as well. I got a great deal on two lobsters and didn\'t have any problems afterconsumption so no complaints whatsoever. I initially thought that it may have smelt a little fishy, but I was wrong since ittasted great and everyone who tried the lobster rolls I made loved them! Read more

I went here and got some tasty cod fish. They have a good selection of fish and seafood, and some locally made goods - I got... some pistachio shortbread cookies. The store is pretty small inside, and I had to wait a bit for service - this was no surprise,as I went around 5 pm on a Friday of Lent. I was worried that they were almost out of cod, but they had more in the back inaddition to what\'s in the display case, so just ask if you don\'t see what you\'re looking for.\n\nI liked this place and wouldcome back; it seems like one of our only options for fresh fish here in the Cities (along with their Minneapolis location).There isn\'t a ton of parking, so be aware of that if you come during a busy time. The price was a bit high (this is probablynormal for fresh fish though), and the young man who waited on me wasn\'t overly friendly (but he wasn\'t rude, either). I thinkthey were just overwhelmed with customers. Overall this is a cool place, and I\'d recommend it - check it out! Read more

The team at Coastal Foods are so knowledgeable and helpful, it\'s our goto for anything seafood. The chopino turned out amazing.

Came here to buy oysters to try shucking for the first time, the individual who helped me was great and had lots of insight. The... oysters were great and way cheaper than buying at a restaurant. Prices are fair for quality seafood. Read more

Great shop! Amazing product and great options for sushi grade fish! They were very helpful and patient! Can\'t wait to go back!

OK there are complaints out there about customer service here. Yes, parking is virtually nonexistent. Yes, when they are busy it... is NOT a customer-friendly experience. Seems like the staff are in some kind of panic mode when there is a line of customers. Atsuch times, you gotta know WHAT you want and HOW MUCH you want.\nWhen things slow down then they are actually helpful(!!) andeven answer our questions (fathom that).\nThey have pretty much all the related ingredients we need for sashimi n sushi, andmost are high grade. They even have kimchi. Prices for that stuff are higher than Yule find at United Noodle or Ha Tien.\nLastitem- safety and WiFi. We felt safe from carjacking and mugging in this area, and driving to/from, so that is not a concern.\nNOWiFi is available from coastal, but caribou?s is strong enuff. Read more
