Fish Market In Hoboken Says It Will Finally Open, Asks Customers For Suggestions

HOBOKEN, NJ — Something fishy was announced in Hoboken on Tuesday — the opening day for the long-awaited Angelo Seafood Market.

The store announced on Tuesday afternoon, "Hey Hoboken! We are excited to serve you. We will be open this Thursday 3/7 at 12! Let us know in the comments what you'd like to see in the fish case."

Responses on social media included baby sardines, scallops, sea bass, salmon, shrimp, squid, blue crab, prawns, and little neck clams.

The store will open in the center of the main drag of Washington Street, at the former site of a UPS store.

It's owned by the owners of the Stingray Lounge, a bar/restaurant on the 1200 block of the same street.

"Just a few blocks up the street is where the concept began," they say on their website. "Our flagship restaurant Stingray Lounge has been serving local oysters and hand crafted cocktails since 2013. A family owned and operated restaurant, The Fontenellis wanted to share their desire for exceptional seafood in another way."

The store said early on that it will offer specialty seafood and prepared foods, ranging from lobster rolls to fillets.

Angelo Seafood Market is located at 626 Washington St. See what they've got to offer here.
