Best fresh fish in the county
March 3, 2021
I buy all of our fish from Fresh Fish Fanatics at the Oxnard Farmer’s market. The only disappointment is getting there too late. I’ve had both kinds of Salmon, Halibut, Swordfish, Shrimp and Scallops and they’ve never failed me. I used to buy my fish at the Fish King in Glendale, but now that I’m living here, I’ve found my go-to source. Great people too. Supporting a local business is always a good thing.
Absolutely the freshest fish

The best fish around! Always fresh, nice variety, and the nicest people selling it! So delicious every time.
See you next week at the market!
Always Fresh and So Delicious!

Never have I had fish this fresh before I began receiving FreshFishFanatics deliveries…I’ve ordered Cod, Black Sea Bass, Halibut, and Shrimp.
The BEST FISH from a wonderful family!
September 1, 2020
This is such a unique and wonderful family-owned and locally operated business bringing the freshest fish to your doorstep weekly! We order weekly and eat fish at least 3 times a week. I should tell you what my 8 year old says, “mom this is the best fish I have ever tasted”. I wish the rating had the option of 100 stars! Yay for healthy eating and supporting our community!
Delicious!!!!
