After being in a line with no signs of social distancing and everyone on top of each other, it was my turn to encounter the proprietors of this dodgy operation.... read more The freshness of seafood or lack thereof did not inspire confidence. All the fish appeared slimy and precut in advance into saran wrapped chunks.
The owners obviously rigged their own reviews too. It seems highly unlikely statistically that this shack would maintain 130 "5-star ratings" only, with stinky fish. No 2 stars or 3 stars? Just all 5? Very fishy. People are entitled to their opinions and just because there are not so flattering comments, doesn't invalidate those reviews. Someone below couldn't handle the truth and they had to offset the bad reviews with another fake 5 stars? There's an obvious intervention by the owners when a few negative reviews are rapidly succeeded with glowing positives. Another sign of a business that cannot accept criticism - paid reviews to bash the negatives!Patrick R.
8/14/2020My favorite fresh seafood Market. Family owned and super friendly. They always have fresh catch and perfect if you don't want to up so early for Dory's. Call ahead to... read more see if they have what you are looking for. The prices are super good for what you get. They accept card too which is a plus. Plenty of parking right in front of the tiny floating house too.

6/01/2022I'm happy to report this family-owned gem is open once again. Limited days/hours (Thursday-Saturday, 12-5 pm), but serving fresh fish options as always. I can't wait to get in the... read more kitchen and start preparing...scallops, Mexican white prawns and littleneck clams! Another customer in line with me today said the salmon was amazing last week, and he was back for more. I had a little bit of a wait since they are serving customers one at a time from a table on the dock, but so worth it! I highly recommend supporting this local business that has been a staple of our community for so long.

They are friendly but super fake and only nice to get your business. Once you walk out the door their true colors show. They are like used car salesmen. Never... read more care about the customers once they charge your card.
I went during covid and they accept cash and use the same gloves to go grab your seafood. They have a white table without a scale. Why not grab and show you what they picked out for you and weigh it in front of you and then we say ok and proceed ? That's the straightforward and honest way ... showing visibility and not hide and do business behind closed doors. Every seafood market shows what you are going to buy and the weigh it in front of you before you purchase it. This place is very devious.
Besides that they are shady, they are also rude and abrupt with their answers.Bobbie K.
8/10/2020We love Pearson's Port, it's a small family business that is deserving of your support. Their hours are super convenient compared to the hours of Dory's and Carley is always... read more helpful and kind. Their prices are also cheaper or comparable to the supermarkets but the seafood is definitely fresher. The only downside is you don't know what you will get when you arrive because the deliveries come throughout the day. So, it is a good idea to call ahead to see what they have. We love their crabs, spotted prawns, fish, lobsters, etc. The location is also very picturesque with a little shack on top of the waters. We wait only a few minutes on a Thursday afternoon to be helped.

We got the halibut here last week and it was the best we've ever had! The service and pick up process was great as well.

10/03/2020Spotted Prawns!
In an unassuming shack on the water in Newport Beach lies this seafood oasis. My wife sent me here to get some spotted prawns and it was a... read more great experience. You park in this dock area and walk down this plank to a floating store/dock/boat. It was cool. The inside was fairly small, but you know it had all sorts of fresh seafood. I was here for the shrimp and grabbed a net and the person helped me pick out some larger prawns for me to bring home. They were fresh and jumping all over the place. It's a little pricey, but that's expected for this fresh of seafood. Recommend coming here.Jeffrey L.
6/14/2022This place is great!! Riley is super friendly and knowledgeable about his fish and lobsters and clams! We bought sashimi grade yellowtail and tuna. I can't wait to slice it... read more up tonight and make poke!! It's very reasonable too!

7/14/2019Very Frindly Staff. Very Fresh Lobster, Crab, and Shrimp, they are SOOO TASTY ! ! I really love them. When we invited Guests, all of them really enjoyed, loved, then pleased to our serving dinner. In our case, we don't boil Crabs or Lobsters. We steam them. Just my feelings, it is more tasty when we tried to steam Crabs and Lobsters. 茹でるより『蒸すッ! !』 これが、蟹の正しい調理方法ッ ! ! と、信じております。
