We were there twice in the same weekend. They have outdoor seating with gas lamps to keep us warm. Dog friendly is a big plus.

I ordered the crab cakes, fried, I have had them before although this trip they were extremely oily and salty. Even recalling this dining experience makes me light headed. Other dishes are certainly delicious, but I don’t recommend getting the crab cakes. Just like the original location in Moss Landing, they have plenty of space to dine, probably triple the amount of space including the outdoor part.

The seafood here is very fresh and good quality. The Cioppino, despite it being relatively pricey, is a huge portion and stuffed with crab, scallops, calamari, muscles, fish … etc. I got 3 large crab legs in there, and it was more than I could finish on my own. Definitely worth the price for the portion size and the quality. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Prepare to wait in a long line on busier times (moves pretty quick though)

My first time here, let me start by saying I’m not a big seafood eater, so heres my two cents.

Driving through the area on my way out of town and stopped for a cup of New England Clam Chowder. Though it was a bit pricey, it was very good. Came with crackers and bread. Next time in the area I’m hoping I have more time to dine in and try some of their other delicious sounding food. Note: Entrance is in the back of the building.

I really like the new indoor location in Castroville. However, I miss them having bar seating. The bar at the old location was very fun and lively with people sitting at it. I also love their mini chowder in a bun. It is a better size for a bread bowl as usually no one finishes a regular sized chowder in a bread bowl. The mini size is perfect for adults and kids.

We miss the old Phil’s at Moss Landing though the taste at the new place is more or less the same. Maybe, the owners intended to keep the old elements and thus, didn’t make much change. I’d said, a relocation rather than a revitalization. Entrance is still from the back for example, many tried to enter from the front (of the street). The world map is gone, with pins pinned by customers from around the world. The fresh market is not longer there. Having said that, it is good to have Phil’s Fish Market & Eatery – Cioppino, always the best choice!

Decent seafood spot for fresh seafood lovers. The menu is full of dishes & plates, but be careful as some of them might not be available the day you decide to dine there!!! The food is tasty, but average to good, nothing unique about it except the fact you are eating fresh fish. I have only tried 3 dishes they have on the menu, so other dishes might be better in taste. Clean place, old style furniture & average service

First visit at the new location. It was a busy lunch with line out the door. Two registers running moved it along quickly. Order was delivered to our table by the time we purchased drinks at the bar. Bar Manager Marco was the best.

Came in on a Saturday afternoon. Be prepared to wait, as it can get extremely busy especially on the weekends. The seafood is extremely fresh and always great whenever we go. However, it is extremely crowded and difficult to find a table. The fish and chips were delicious, and the food is consistently good. I have gone here multiple times, and will continue to come back! The new location also has a food truck outside in case you don’t want to order inside.
