"True to its name, this centrally located eatery and seafood market excels in super-fresh preparations of the daily catch, whether fried, baked, smoked, grilled, or cooked in soup. The fish-and-chips, served with coleslaw, is particularly popular for its light batter and crispy finish, and the tuna—in any preparation—is always excellent. For the best deal on the island, opt for the trio combo and pick three of your favorites. If you’re not keen on sitting in the cramped space, order your food to go and enjoy it on the beach instead. You can also pick up marinated fillets to cook yourself at your condo or villa."
Small fish counter and dining room with fresh locally caught fish available to take home raw or have prepared for you there. The prices are very low for the incredible quality and freshness. A whole snapper platter cost around $10. The locals come here. The staff are all friendly. This is the best place to eat on the island for me.

I visited Daily Fish and had the fish 'n chips special. It was cooked perfectly and came out of the fryer especially hot needing to be broken up to cool off.
While I'm not sure which type of fish it was, I wish I would have paid attention or asked questions to what was in the case so I could have had that cooked to order. Specifically, the barracuda or the fresh prawns I would loved to have tried. As good as the fish I had was, I'm sure either of those would be even better.
Try to mix this visit in with a trip to Superfoods, after all you shouldn't go shopping when you're hungry.

Love this place! It’s my number one recommendation for fresh local fish in Aruba. I go every time we go to Super
Foods. I’ve eaten there at least a few dozen times. Yes, it’s a fish market, but, they will also fry or grill it for you.
Order the whole red snapper with fries and coleslaw. Today we got whole lion fish and it was incredible too. Fried octopus, calamari, and many local fish options. Have them cook it for you or take it home to cook. You can get their marinated options in SuperFoods next door as well.
When you order at the counter you choose your filet or whole fish and they price it by the weight. You can have it fried or grilled. Very reasonably priced. We usually spend around $15 USD per meal. Just depends on how much fish you order. Delicious! Highly recommend for casual lunch or dinner.

Horrible customer service. No prices on fish; total scam! A year ago when we visited the service was a lot better but it seems the place is or has been mismanaged. There were a couple ladies working the counter but it seems only 1 is capable of ringing up or answering customer questions. If they only posted or displayed prices on the fish it would make it all seamless but perhaps they have different prices for different customers…go elsewhere or buy frozen at Super Food, at least you see what the price is on the label!!

I recently went here for lunch, while visiting the Island for the first time. I was recommended this place by local taxi driver. I had some fish I have never had fried with fries, and coleslaw. The fish was perfectly cooked and melted in my mouth ☺️ The staff were very nice, the food was decently priced. Seems like where locals eat, while there there was few people there on their lunch break. Where I was visiting from we don’t have huge selections of fish, so was not familiar with some fish on the menu. Thankfully the cashier recommended me fish she likes. I would definitely recommend to anyone that likes seafood.

Located in the Super Food Plaza, to the right of the main entrance to the market, this local seafood market offers fried and grilled fish, delicious soup and a selection of seafood to take home. We tried the barracuda which was meaty and yummy and loved the bowl of fish soup. Would skip the calamari though, not the best texture.

We came here for lunch after a friend’s recommendation. We arrived at about 12:45 in the afternoon. We were very excited because all the fish look very fresh. Seating was limited and it was very busy. They told us the kitchen was behind and there will be a bit wait. Due to the miscommunication the order was wrong . However the food was amazing , great tasting and very fresh ! I would come back again and order fish here! I gave three starts because we waited nearly one hour for our food and they told us cash only because machine was broken . While we waited for our food , I saw someone used the machine and it was fine .

One of my favourite places to eat on the island! You choose the fish or seafood you want and then they cook it for you and serve it with fries and coleslaw. It’s a unique experience and a lot of fun! You can eat in or take out. The only thing that could be improved is clear prices by each bowl of fish - I could not always tell how much each type of fish cost.
You must visit this place while in Aruba!
PS Try the soup!
