Best seafood market in the area. If you're in the Mystic area, this is the place to buy your seafood to bring home to cook. It's located in a residential neighborhood, don't be deterred. Best place to buy steamers, clams and oysters (to open on your own) and fish. The lobsters can be a little expensive (always check the price of lobster at ShopRite in New London first).
