Kate's Fish, Cleveland OH

Been walking past this stand for years and since I'm not a huge fan of fish never bought anything but always took a look to see what they had to offer. Yesterday my Fiance mentioned we should do crab legs soon and we weren't too impressed by the selection at Heinens or the price. Surprised her this morning by making the hour drive to the west side market to get fresh crab legs. We got 3 clusters of snow and 3 king crab legs. Let them defrost in the fridge for a few hours then boiled them. THEY TURNED OUT ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! This will be our new years tradition from now on, and the only place we will be going is Kate's. Thank you!

Responded to a much ballyhooed promotion of “fresh never frozen” lobster meat for holiday ordering. Showed up to claim our order, and were informed that only frozen was available. Anyone even moderately accustomed to lobster consumption knows the lower quality of frozen vs.fresh. Nobody died and nobody is going to jail here, but at best we have a colossal fumbling of fulfillment on a premium product, and at worst, well, bait and switch comes to mind. This business has a decent reputation, so perhaps the takeaway here is that it’s ok for WYSIWYG purchases, but it doesn’t seem to be ready for prime time in the special order arena.

I LOVE KATES FISH THEY DO NOT ACCEPT EBT ONLY TIME IS WHEN THERE FISH IS LOW AND THEY CUSTOMER SERVICE IS SLOW DONT JUDGE PEOPLE BY LOOKING AT THEM KMOWING THEY RECIEVE EBT I WATCHED HOW HE ASKED A LADY DID SHE NEED HELP BECAUSE SHE WAS SPENDING CASH MONEY BUT DIDNT ASK ME DIDNT WANT TO HELP ME I KNOW WHATS THIS IS ABOUT I REMEMEBER WHEN NOBODY USE TO EVEN GO KATES BUT THATS THE ONLY ONE NOW IN THE MARKET I WILL NOT SIT BACK ITS WRONG PEOPLE FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE RECEIVE EBT

Stand sold me dead mussels. I contacted them via email providing photos of the issue and was told it's my problem and they accept no responsibility.

Im from the Louisiana Gulf Coast & 1 thing I know is fresh fish. Very pleased with selection and purchase that I made. Found Kate's at Westside Market.

A market where you can purchase sausages, meat, sashimi, imported sauces, bread, snacks, etc.while eating simple snacks.
I stopped by to buy raw fish, and there is a building in the back that sells vegetables, like a local market.

You can’t go wrong with Kate’s fish. I love their selection of fish and other seafood but today I put them to the test. I grew up in Maryland and am used to live blue crabs some of the best crab cakes in the world. I’ve been wanting good crab cakes so I bit the bullet and bought a couple at West Side Market today. These are hands down the best I’ve had outside the mid-Atlantic. The crab meat is good and there is more crab than breading which is hard to find in Cleveland.

I was impressed with their selection. The vendors were incredibly helpful. The salmon I purchased was fresh and tasted wonderful!

This is my go to for smoked salmon and/or smoked salmon spread. Again out of salmon and no salmon spread again but I’ll be back! It’s delicious

Best Seafood place, they got whatever you want and need, you have to go see you will be impress

The selection and quality are outstanding. If you want to get good seafood in Cleveland, this is the premier spot.

Definitely a perfect place to buy seafood. We bought sea bass and shrimp with head. They cleaned the fish perfectly for us. And both fish and shrimp were very fresh, tasted really goooood.

Very happy with all of my purchases over the last few months. Fish is fresh and they were super helpful when I was trying to pick a fish that was thick enough to be both deboned and skinned. Prices are surprisingly competitive. I used to buy my fish at Costco, but Kate’s prices are not that different for much higher quality. It’s also always fun to see what new and exotic thing they have in to try. I’ll continue buying from them! I also LOVE the option of having local Lake Erie fish fresh.
