Excellent fresh grouper At the Lighthouse seafood store (not the restaurant) on 466 just east of Morse Blvd. for $24 per pound. We cook it in a cast iron pan in our Webber grill, to die for.

Why would they discontinue grouper? Next to haddock and salmon, it's probably one of the most popular alternative fish.

You can get grouper, snapper, mahi mahi all available at lighthouse fish market on 466. That’s if you want to cook at home.

I would say they couldn’t sell enough because of the price, but they’re other fish that’s just as good & cheaper. But that’s just an opinion!

And the lady there will tell you how she pan sautées it. Their fish is soooooo fresh. It never has that watery, I've-been-sitting-in-the-freezer.


Made Chilean Sea Bass for our son last week. He was slicing off raw slivers of it sushi-style before I could get it in the pan.

I was at the market last Saturday and the seafood vendor was there.

Grouper is in season now and available at every restaurant that serves fresh fish. But not necessarily at the restaurants that get their food from food companies like Sysco etc.
