Fish in Philadelphia: Samuels & Son


In my quest for sardines and langostinos, the owner of one of my favorite restaurants here in Voorhees, Pasta Pommodoro sent me to Samuels & Son Seafood Co., Inc in Philadelphia. Samuels is one of the best known fish dealers in the area, serving several states and some of the best restaurants in Philadelphia. Their warehouse is on Lawrence Street and off we went a rainy Saturday morning. They are wholesalers so the minimum purchase was 5 pounds.
The quality of their fish is amazing and they have so many different varieties and hard to find. The attention was great also. We bought Chilean sea bass, langostinos (prawns) and sardines imported from Portugal. Sadly they were out of ono (wahoo). If you have a freezer and you live in the area, I really recommend this place if you like quality for your fish and seafood. 3400 S. Lawrence Street, Philadelphia, PA, phone: 800 580 5810
