New Star Fish Market offers a good selection of seafood at reasonable prices. The selection is not as wide as you might expect a few blocks to the west in Chinatown, but the family-owned business emphasizes friendly customer service. Shrimp, clams and mussels are usually a good bet. If you ask, they’ll give you honest guidance on the best bets on any given day.
