Fjord Fish Market

Thick cod with the best thin batter. Absolutely the best fish & chips & coleslaw I ever had. Love it!

When I went in there, I knew it was going to be high-quality but an inexpensive price but I did not expect To be treated with the highest level of hospitality There are many good fish markets in lower Fairfield County, but this Wonderful group of people take the cake!!

It’s always so fresh and delicious. Came here from Westchester because their seafood is so much better than City Island. Worth the trip every time. I had the shrimp basket and the halibut bites.

A few years go my colleague introduced me to Fjord Fish Market in CT, and I’m so glad they did! My son and I are huge smoked salmon fans, and whenever I’m in Connecticut, I make it a point to stop by and pick up a few pounds. Fjord has locations in Westport, Darien, and New Canaan, but this time I visited the Cos Cob location—and I was absolutely wowed! They offer an incredible selection of European products from Spain, the Baltics, and beyond. The prepared food section was insane. I only came in for the smoked Salmon but ended up stocking up for a party we hosted yesterday, and everything was a massive hit. The potato latkes were phenomenal—we served them with sour cream, the best smoked salmon, another dollop of sour cream, and topped it all off with caviar from their fully stocked caviar fridge (a bit pricey, but it’s caviar!). It was totally worth it—the caviar made the salmon stand out and elevated the entire meal to Michelin-star levels. We also served their tuna salad on Japanese crackers with a sprinkle of dill. This isn’t your ordinary tuna salad—it has a light touch of wasabi and a homemade feel that sets it apart. Another standout was their snapper spread. We tried it at the counter and couldn’t resist serving it on Ritz crackers with a slice of jalapeño. It’s like whitefish salad, but 100 times better. We also picked up their seafood salad, which was freshly stocked right as we got there—it was so fresh and flavorful. For dinner, we bought some swordfish, which my wife cooked with potatoes and a red sauce they recommended from Randazzo’s—a spot I visit in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn ( BTW, home run spot for raw bar and the best-fried calamari) . How the hell they got Randazzo’s sauce in Connecticut is a head-scratcher, but I’m not complaining! By the time I was done shopping, I told my wife, “Don’t worry about the market—I got everything we need.” Now, after how easy this was, I’m actually volunteering to organize the next dinner party. Who knew I’d become a party planner overnight? I usually don’t write long reviews, but I wanted the ownership team to know—whatever you’re doing, keep it up! Everything was out of this world, and I’ll definitely be back.

Very nice fish and sushi - I will definitely return once more!

We have also tried their cooked items for lunch... excellent lobster roll & spicy fish bites.. halbot. Normally.the best , freshest fish in town ! However we once purchased some sea..bass and it was not fresh ... especially given their $$$$ prices. To their credit they gave us a credit which resulted in a very nice flounder dinner. We always have had good luck with the tuna. Get the more experienced staff for correct portion size.

Great made to order Poke bowls and sushi. Wonderful selection of fish/shellfish. Many other options as well. You can even get a fresh bagel with their smoked salmon. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I believe there are also several other locations.

Inlander here from Cincinnati. My boys and I had the opportunity to grab a bit of Connecticut right as we were heading home. Walked in and immediately we were heated like family! We had a fabulous lobster roll and also tried the Greek favorite roasted octopus. Also Thank you for the random act of kindness. I was smiling the remainder of my long trip!
