San Pedro Fish Market Feeds First Responders

(Gerry Furth-Sides)  We were heartened to learn the  San Pedro Fish Market is donating World Famous Shrimp Trays to first responders across Los Angeles County. To date, San Pedro Fish Market has donated over 1,200 meals to front line healthcare responders across Long Beach, San Pedro and Los Angeles communities as a part of their continuous effort to provide support to those affected by COVID-19.

The Ungaro family owned and operated market is also offering World Famous Shrimp Trays for four people for just $20 now through May 3. Affordable nutritious, protein-packed meals from San Pedro Fish Market at also available for local delivery via Grubhub, enjoy home.

First Responders and organizations who have received donated Shrimp Tray meals include Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, LA Fire Stations 36, 40, 48, 101, 110, 111 and 112, Long Beach Police, Long Beach Police Marine Patrol, Long Beach SWAT, Little Co Of Mary Hospital, Little Sisters of the Poor, Memorial Care Long Beach Medical Center, Memorial Hospital Of Gardena, St Mary’s Medical Center ER and VA Medical Center. Both San Pedro and Long Beach Fish Markets are gearing up for additional meal donations throughout the community.

 The World Famous Shrimp Tray is a mound of fresh shrimp piled high with fajita bell peppers, onions, tomatoes and potatoes tossed with San Pedro’s signature savory seafood seasoning and soybean butter. Served with fresh, house-made garlic bread, the World Famous Shrimp Tray is a deeply satisfying seafood meal.

San Pedro Fish Market and Grille at the very end of Harbor Boulevard in San Pedro usually fills close to 400 outside seats every week-end.  The rustic tables and waterfront view reminded us of eating outside on the wharf in Greece.  

The restaurant claims the crowd comes for their high quality, fresh shrimp, delivered fresh daily from the San Pedro Fish Market.  The Shrimp Platter for Two and the shrimp Tacos are signature items.  We look forward to the days when you can again pick your own from a counter and have them cook it (grilled or sautéed) and then eat outside in the fresh air overlooking the water.  The restaurant usually offers inside dining, with a small bar, and the few week-day customers there between lunch and dinner seemed to be having such a leisurely good time they would be there for supper, too.

World Famous Shrimp Tray Donations will be ongoing.  The 
$20 Four Person World Famous Shrimp Tray
Available now through May 3, 2020.

About San Pedro Fish Market:

Founded by Mackey Ungaro, his son Henry, and his nephew Tommy Amalfitano, San Pedro Fish Market opened the doors to its first location in 1956, originally called Vista Seafood. In the early 60’s, Vista Seafood was relocated to the beautiful waterfront location which would later become the Ports O’ Call Village. This waterfront site, rebuilt in 1982 and renamed the San Pedro Fish Market and Restaurant.  San Pedro Fish Market has become one of the top ten most Instagrammed restaurants in the country highlighting their World Famous Shrimp Tray. Much of it has been documented with their award-winning web series Kings of Fi$h, which showcases the San Pedro-based family entrepreneurs and their four-time Guinness Book of World Record restaurants. Nearly four generations later, the families continue the tradition of serving fresh seafood to the waterfront community and beyond.
