About Marsic Bros (Marsic Fish Shop)

Marsic Bros (Marsic Fish Shop) is a fish store on Mayfair Place in Glen Innes, Auckland, rated 4.7. A good fishmonger earns trust through freshness above all: clear, bright eyes on a whole fish, flesh that springs back when pressed, and a clean sea smell rather than anything strong or sour are the basics worth checking before buying. Asking what came in that day, rather than picking whatever's at eye level, usually gets you the best of the catch, since a proper fishmonger will steer you toward what's freshest rather than what needs to move. Having fish filleted to order, rather than buying pre-cut, also tends to mean better quality, since it hasn't sat exposed as long. Regulars build a relationship with whoever's behind the counter, which tends to pay off in better recommendations and the occasional tip on what's good that day. On Mayfair Place in Glen Innes, Marsic Bros is the local option for that kind of fresh fish.
