Great place for seafood sandwiches. I tried most of their menu, and it never disappoints. The service is excellent and quick. You can also have a salad for an additional fee of $5, and it's worth it

Location has a great pleasant vibe, welcoming, in doors is a bit gloomy with minimal lighting. The steel panel wall (container like) needs cleaning, so much dust bunnies and grime, you will see it sitting at table against this wall. Not sanitary, I am not sure why management has neglected these no touch surfaces. Servers are friendly and prompt. I ordered the lobster roll, lobster meats is minced, not chunks, kind of disappointing, taste is good, bun is toasted. It comes with a dry salad and coleslaw. Strange that salad was not dressed. I asked for dressing, there is only one choice. However there are many options on the menu, I would come back and try. Average check per person is approximately $27. Parking on street on Church metered, or multi storey Green P near by. Side walk seating is fantastic in this location.

I’ve tried their shrimp and chicken gumbo, but there was no shrimp or chicken in the soup. I would not go back for their soup. But their fish and chips looked good and you get what is stated in the name: fish & chips

This restaurant is in a beautiful location and attracts many tourists. Among SO many options in the Saint Lawrence area, this one stands out! They offer healthy, fresh, and tasty food. The fried fish basket was amazing. Try sitting in the patio. Highly recommended!

I've been looking at this restaurant for months, and I always thought it was expensive, (without actually looking at the prices) just by location. But, never judge a restaurant by its outside! Such a hidden gem, the food is delicious, staff super friendly and overall a really nice spot. Yes I will be back!

Had lunch here while visiting the amazing St. Lawrence Market, which is right across the street. It was our first time eating here and I was so impressed with the friendliness of the staff, the variety of menu items and the quality of the food. I had the delicious grilled salmon and fries. Very generous portion, perfectly cooked, and fries were great. Husband ordered halibut and chips. Two pieces of fish, which was almost all fish (see pic), in light, crisp batter. Great lunch!

The seafood joint at the St Lawrence Market was packed on weekends as usual so our group of four decided to come here for lunch instead where there's comfortable seating. First time here and I did enjoy the food. The seafood platter for one was a pretty good deal with salad, grilled calamari, swordfish and grilled octopus. I particularly like the calamari. The fried halibut and chips was also pretty decent. We also ordered the grilled octopus and lobster roll to share. Good portions and value for money. Would definitely come back.

I came here for a late lunch with my family. The restaurant is cozy and surprisingly spacious. The service was fantastic and everyone was friendly. The food tasted extremely fresh and not oily at all. Great spot for fried seafood and I would definitely recommend it to anybody whose craving fish and chips in the city. Will definitely be coming back here. The only negatives is some of the seating is sticky (probably from the cleaning solution they use) and the pickle was pretty bad.

Overall, the dish was delicious. In particular, it was my first time trying Seafood Bouillabaisse, and it was so delicious that I dipped all my food, including the French fries, in this sauce!

from the front surf & turf, grilled seafood platter, Lobster poutine, fish fry basket. Drinks + tip cost 30,000 won per person. If this is the case, the price is not bad. I couldnt find any notable lobster restaurants near the CN Tower, so I went to the seafood restaurant instead. Overall, it was okay, but what was disappointing was that there were two boti potato menu items. I should have left out the fish fry and just had regular seafood.

We went here couple times and first time everything was great. Unfortunately on our second try red snapper smelled super fishy, way more than normal. We eat fish a lot and fresh snapper is not supposed to smell like that. They refused to replace the fish so we had to share a portion of trout.

I had enjoyed this place, the fries are very good. However, I had a terrible experience there recently. I ordered grilled fish with salad. I noticed the strange texture of the fish while chewing, so I looked closely, and noticed that the fish skin was covered in scales. I shuddered, it was quite disgusting, the hair on my body stood up. I brought my plate to the people working at the kitchen to ask if it s just a mishap or do other pieces have scales on as well. a woman answered that it s not their fault, because it s the people upstairs who clean the fish, and told me to just scrape them off myself. I had completely lost my appetite, and just thinking of the gross texture still gives me shivers.

I stopped by Market Street Catch near St. Lawrence Market for lunch around 2 p.m. on a Sunday. The cozy size of the restaurant gives it an intimate feel, which I appreciated. Service was decent, with staff being fairly prompt and polite. The food was passable, though, unfortunately, the fish didnt strike me as particularly fresh. While the overall experience was okay, the meal didnt quite live up to my expectations, especially when it comes to the quality one would anticipate so close to such a renowned market known for fresh fare. Its an adequate spot for a quick lunch, but the food might not dazzle those with a keen taste for seafood.

Bad customer service and bad attitude. Got our order wrong and when we asked for a refund of the difference, they refused to refund the correct amount until I showed them the calculation, which they previously insisted that we were wrong. Didn t apologise. It s just simple maths. Food wise the fries were bad. McDonald s has better fries. Fish was ok but I couldn t confirm what fish I was eating because our order was messed up. Bad experience.

Today I ordered Lobster Roll, cost was 25 dollars, I expect a well made sandwich, the Lobster was so little and the bun was too cold and too Dry. Not buttered like any other lobster roll. Very disappointed. Owner should look at what the kitchen is doing am sure they don t want to serve such food

We tried the fish and chips - halibut and haddock. We though over 42$ was a bit atrocious considering the ambience, plastic cups of tartar, and, having to walk up to the cashier to ask for water even though we ordered dine-in. The fish was tasty for sure, so if you re a fan of fish and chips - recommend trying it out.

April 23, 2024

Smelled great from the street which is what enticed me in - sadly didn t entirely measure up to that first impression. Got the cod and fries. Three reasonably sized pieces of cod, fish was good but batter was overdone and too crispy. Fries were of the tiny shoestring variety and were too hard and crunchy. Spoonful of coleslaw was mostly buried somewhere under it all. Portion was generous but didn t like the fries enough to finish them. Compared to the best in the city, past (Penrose) and present (Sea Witch), merely ok. Not a patch on proper fish and chips from a shop in the UK. That said, they also do stuff like lobster rolls and fish tacos which I m curious to try.

I usually go to Buster Sea cove at the St.Lawrance Market. However, they are closed for renovations. I ordered a red snapper meal with fries. I will be honest it was HORRIBLE. The snapper smelt fishy, and fries were soggy and raw, and it took over 20 minutes to prepare. I wont go back to this location.

It is quite rare to have a reasonably priced seafood restaurant next to such a major tourist destination as St. Lawrence market. As a local I absolutely appreciate it and eat/order here often. The food is prepared fresh, with a good variety of grilled and deep fried seafood items as well as pastas. Pro tip - consider dining in, fresh from the grill rather than ordering a take out.

Greate place to have a lunch after visiting the st. Lawrence market. Lots of grilled and otherwise prepared seafood options. We tried Grilled Seafood platter and Grilled Shrimp with salad, both were absolutely delicious. There is no full table service so you need to order food from the counter and they will bring it to the table. There are about 4 tables available at the patio and more inside. I found the patio seating is much better. They also have beers including some from local brewery, but cans only, no draught. The prices are on a higher end for such place, possible due to good location.

catch is located just opposite the SLM, boasting a menu similar to Buster s. I ordered the Lobster Roll with Salad side (also comes with fries side) for $23. with great price comes great expectation. were they met? well. kind of. roll was made on the spot, with a short wait time and very friendly staff! i m not a bit lobster eater, if any at all, and the taste of the roll when I first bit in took me by surprise. there s a mix of spices, herbs and sauces to bind the lobster meat together, the richness thing nicely together with the light salad and vinegar gravy that slices through. coleslaw also provides another edge of crunch and texture to the roll. the bread was also soft and buttered nicely, the the cherry tomatoes in the pasta (while limited) was surprisingly fresh and tasty. all around a pretty balanced meal with a portion that s just a tad too much for me (but that really means more for later!) - broke college kid

Great experience! Some dishes really stand out (below), large portions, good value-for-money. GREAT SERVICE from the staff, especially Elisa ~ thanks! First some deets. Not a huge dining area: about 6 tables seating 2-4 each. If busy, there s a long bar table facing the open kitchen, seats 6-8. Patio s a good option this time of year: about 4 tables seating 2-4 each. Order at the counter (for both dine in & takeout). They ll give you a number and bring the food to you when it s ready. The food! Lobster Roll is the clear go-to: big chunks, fresh, a touch of spice for some kick. Grilled Octopus is a winner but eat it right away or it gets too chewy. For fried fans, go for the Halibut. All fixings are top notch: tartar sauce & coleslaw esp. (btw it s a dry coleslaw, which personally I prefer).

Small cozy restaurant just off a side street of the St. Lawrence Market. Great service. Staff were friendly and attentive. We tried their Grilled Seafood Platter, Lobster Rigatoni, Steamed Mussels & Clams, Surf & Turf. Food served warm and yummy. Portion and prices were decent. We loved the lobster rigatoni. It was creamy & full of flavor. The steak we asked for medium rare but came out well done. There was only one shrimp on the seafood platter. Overall experience was good. Dine-in and patio available. Will visit again to try other seafoods on menu.

Sorry no pics. When food looks that good the last thing that I think of is taking a picture. Luckily others are not as ravenous as I am. Food tasted as good as it looks, amazing. I recently had a $40 lobster roll at a high-end restaurant, this one beat it by 1000% at half the price. Cant wait to visit again. Considering their casual set up, service was great. Love it here.

It was decent, got the lobster roll and 3 taco plate. The tacos were a bit hard/stale and the roll for the lobster was a bit thick. Lobster was fresh and tasted good. Overall it was a good value sonce we used the bogo canada app, otherwise wouldnt care to come back

Ive done take out from here a few times but dont think I will again after last time. This was a couple of weeks ago, order was June 6th. Went in to grab my order and one of the line cooks had his Tim Hortons coffee cup sitting on the flat top grill. Obviously that half of the grill was off or low and being used just as a warming area, but to keep something that appears to be trash on a cooking surface in AN OPEN KITCHEN IN FRONT OF GUESTS was sickening. If that is the standard they present to the public one can only imagine how things are out of sight in the back. Ive worked in restaurants for years and it saddens me to see such apathy. Given the pretty low prices Id assume they are paying as little as they can in labor and getting what they pay for. The result being mediocre (but convenient) food prepared in possibly unsafe conditions. I hope Im wrong and this was a one off occasion, they seem to be in good standing with the health inspectors according to DineSafe.

One of my favourite lunch take out spots. The lobster roll is delicious, though once had a fair amount of shell in it. Do wish the lobster bisque was offered in a larger size, as I cannot get enough of it (but getting two orders seems indulgent).

Ive been here many times at quieter hours. Yesterday I was here at lunch time and I watched the line cooks for a while. My goodness they work intensely hard to put together multiple meals non-stop over the lunch time. I was so impressed at their speed, consistency, and cooperation with each other to put together consistently high quality sea food meals with multiple and different elements for each one. Bravo and thank you to the line cooks

We enjoyed having three tacos, BBQ octopus, calamari and crab cake sandwiches. Market Street Catch is always great for its offering of seafood over fries. Staff are friendly and there is seating inside and out. If they are busier there are plenty of outdoor spots to eat at if the weather is cooperative. Kid-friendliness: Our two boys enjoyed their food and staff were really good with them!

Cashier lady has terrible customer service . She told me it would take 15 mins after I paid . I told her I was in a rush unfortunately I need a refund but she tells me there s no refunds yet there are no refunds sign anywhere in the store. I Tried to tell her she should tell her customers in the future the expectation time before paying especially since there s no refund and she starts to argue & yell at my face! Unnecessary and the tacos were tasteless which made the experience worse

Honestly my favourite place. Quiet, cozy and directly across from the market. As an East Coast er it s the only place I eat seafood dining out. Whether it s takeout or stopping by for a quick bite before/after the market, it s always good and always fresh. Their lobster grilled cheese is out of this world! So much so that it convinces a girl with dietary restrictions to eat it. 11/10 should be my rating.

Got the lobster on brioche bun. Maybe Im a purist, I would have loved to really taste the fresh lobster. The dressings detracted from it. Large portions. Friendly staff. Order beforehand to save time! There is outdoor seating in the summer closed to cars offered by the community. Enjoy some live music as well.

Saturday lunch was fishy. We ordered Calamari grilled, Red Snapper grilled and Halibut fried. The plates were big, fish portions enough. Two of us opted for salad instead of fries which was again a nice portion. The Red Snapper was delicious. Halibut I would have preferred pan fried not deep fried. And the Calamari meaty . Enjoyed our time there.The service was efficient and staff polite and nice and caring. I am def going back to try Lobsters next.

Good spot for fresh seafood by the market. Food and service are great but I find value is lacking quite a bit. That said, they are quite consistent and everytime Ive gone theyve prepared to the standards I expect from them. If youre in the mood for fresh fish or other dishes like seafood pasta, this Market Street Catch will hit that craving and likely wont dissapoint.

I dined in and had the lobster roll & salad which was about $21 after tax. The lobster rolls are on a 6 inch bun. I ordered two more to take home and payed $42 for two more 2 inch lobster roll and a tiny sauce container filled with salad. Food was great but the portions are insulting. How are you gonna charge me $21 for a 1/3 of the portion you just served me. Outrageous. If I could give 0 stars I would.

The Market street- Catch is located in the opposite lane of the famous St. Lawrence Market. The nearest streetcar stop is Jarvis street and from there it is a five-minute walk. I like this cozy, casual, small restaurant. They have outside sitting arrangements too. Order pickup and delivery are available. The food was super fresh and with a good portion. The price of the food is ok not too pricy. The staffs are super friendly and welcoming. The food comes pretty fast after ordering. My son ordered Lobster Roll and fries which were super tasty. The calamari fries were well-breaded. The fish and chips and seafood platter are also very good. We enjoyed the food very much. I highly recommend this place for casual dining with family and friends. It is going to be my spot next time I am going to shop at St. Lawrence Market.

My family loves ordering from MSC. The food never disappoints, great portion for the $$ youre paying. The quality of food is also exceptional - its always piping hot / freshly cooked when we receive it and do takeout. We always get their seafood linguine in rose sauce, shrimp po boy, and lobster roll with salad - these never disappoint. Their clam chowder is a little too watery for me though, I like mine a little creamier/thicker. Overall, a good seafood restaurant in the neighborhood. #supportlocalbusiness #seafood #restaurant #stlawrencemarket
