Phil's Fish Market has been one of our favorite seafood restaurants on the central coast for over 15 years. This casual counter service eatery is located in Moss Landing about 20 miles north of Monterey off Highway One.
Phil's is best known for their famous cioppino featuring HUGE portions of crab, shrimp and seafood with the perfect amount of seasoning. A little fun fact, owner Phil DiGirolamo won a cioppino "throwdown" against celebrity chef Bobby Flay on the Food Network a few years back.
A few of my favorites dishes are the breaded and grilled Calimari Steak, fresh Charbroiled Halibut, Cioppino, and the Mediterranean Pasta with crabmeat, shrimp and scallops. However, today we chose to split some appetizers from the extensive menu and ordered the Prawn Cocktail, Crabmeat Cocktail, Blue Point Oysters and Calamari Fillets. All items were extremely fresh and flavorful however, I probably wouldn't order the Prawn Cocktail again. Unfortunately, they do not have the option to leave a tip on your credit card when paying, so be sure to bring a cash tip for the friendly, hard working staff.
