Gemfish
Sourced from the deep, cool waters of Cook Strait, our line-caught Gemfish is a versatile, full-flavored seafood choice. Known for its firm yet succulent white flesh, Gemfish has a rich, slightly sweet taste and high natural oil content, making it perfect for grilling, roasting, smoking, or pan-frying.
Gemfish’s moist texture and bold flavor make it a favorite for those who enjoy high-quality, flavorful seafood. Naturally rich in omega-3 fatty acids, it’s a nutritious option that stays juicy and flaky when cooked.

"If you want really fresh fish and a good helping of chips, then there really is no other choice. Wellington Sea Market". It never disappoints
Plus the people there are actually really nice.
I loved the food from the Wellington sea market. Very fresh and tasty, and the staff seemed so lovely. 10/10 experience, will be coming back here in the future!
Produce was first class. Delivery was over night and arrived still frozen. Will certainly be back again for more. Highly recommended. Lorrie
Thanks team. As usual....perfectly cooked and presented battered fish of the day!
Excellent service, everything still frozen on delivery…
Bought this for a work shared lunch. The chips were delightful as usual with a healthy crisp and the fish were absolutely phenomenal. Both were prepared promptly with fresh ingredients and I can't be more satisfied. Will definitely be coming back!!
Not only was the food great but the team working was amazing, thank you!
