How it works

Like having a fishmonger on retainer.

Pick your box, or go à la carte

Choose a subscription box sized to your household, or order exactly the cuts you want, when you want them.

Pause or skip any week

We portion to your order

Your seafood is cut and packed to your order size, never pulled from a freezer. Every portion is labeled with its origin, allergens, and a use-by date.

Cut fresh, packed cold

Delivered on fixed days

Order by the weekly cutoff and your box arrives chilled on your neighborhood’s delivery day. No missed windows, no guessing.

Weekly delivery day announced at launch
How it arrives

Cold at your door, even if you’re not home.

The box

Insulated, tamper-evident packaging, packed cold at 41°F or below with ice.

Nobody home? Fine.

No signature needed. Your box is packed to sit tight on a porch; bring it in when you get home and refrigerate.

What arriving right looks like

Everything should feel cold to the touch, like the fish case. Ice may be partly melted; that is normal and fine.

Our story

Your neighborhood fish counter, without the counter.

South Tampa deserves better than the back of a supermarket seafood case. We started South Tampa Seafood to bring restaurant-grade fish to the neighborhoods we live in, up and down Bayshore from Ballast Point to Hyde Park, without the drive up Dale Mabry, the line, or the mystery.

We’re curators, not a fleet. We are a retail seafood market that delivers: every piece we sell is sourced through licensed Florida wholesalers (the same docks and suppliers top Tampa kitchens buy from), then portioned to your order and delivered cold, on schedule.

“We don’t own boats. We don’t pretend to. We just know exactly who does, and what landed this morning.”

Sourcing, on the record

Where your fish actually comes from.

Licensed dealer
A licensed Florida wholesale dealer here in Tampa, the same source the city's best kitchens buy from
Waters
Gulf and Florida landings prioritized when season and quality allow; origin labeled on every item
Method
Wild or farmed, stated per item on the label and the listing
Handling
Kept refrigerated from the dealer to your door, portioned to your household, never frozen

Per-item provenance (dealer, origin, wild or farmed, and vessel or harvest area where the dealer provides it) ships on every label and will appear on every product listing at launch.

Where we deliver

The South Tampa peninsula, one day a week.

One fixed delivery day each week, announced at launch. We run up and down Bayshore and across the peninsula, and routes open by neighborhood demand, so the waitlist literally draws the map.

Not on the list? Check your ZIP above and leave your email; enough neighbors opens the route.

Questions

Fair questions, straight answers.

Is it really never frozen?

Yes. Everything we sell is fresh and kept refrigerated from the wholesaler to your door. Every portion label carries a use-by date and keep-refrigerated handling guidance, plus country of origin, wild or farmed, and allergen information (fish and crustacean shellfish).

Where does the seafood come from?

We source through licensed Florida wholesalers, prioritizing Gulf and Florida landings when season and quality allow, and labeling origin on every item. When we say grouper, it is grouper, named and sourced. We’re a curated local retail service, not a fishing operation.

How do you sell oysters, clams, and mussels?

Whole and in the shell, in the original sealed, tagged container exactly as we receive it from certified dealers. We never open, portion, or repack molluscan shellfish. Fin fish and crustaceans are what we portion to your order.

Which neighborhoods do you deliver to?

At launch: Hyde Park, Davis Islands, Beach Park, Ballast Point, Bayshore, Palma Ceia, Sunset Park, and Port Tampa (ZIPs 33606, 33609, 33611, 33616, 33629). Join the waitlist with your ZIP. Enough neighbors in one area moves it up the launch list.

When do deliveries happen?

On one fixed delivery day each week, with an order cutoff two days before. We’ll announce the day at launch. You’ll always know exactly when your box lands, and you don’t need to be home to receive it.

Can I pause, skip, or cancel?

Anytime, no questions. Boxes are portioned so you finish what you get. Skipping a week should feel easy, not wasteful.

Why a waitlist instead of ordering now?

We’re finalizing licensing and building delivery routes neighborhood by neighborhood. The waitlist is free, takes payment from no one, and gets you first access when we open your ZIP.

The good fish goes to whoever’s first.

Launch spots are limited by route capacity. Get on the list.
