JR Seafood is a local wholesale and retail seafood distributor. I just left with the most dericious looking 2lbs of Ahi that I've seen in a long time.

Hmmm. The last time I made poke, I got the Ahi in Half Moon Bay. No more do I have to drive to HMB to get good fish. JR Seafood is right here in SF!

They are friendly purveyors of fine fresh and frozen seafood. You like oysters? They have more oysters you can shake a shucker at. You like tilapia? I don't. But they have tilapia. You like crab? They have more crabs than a $2 ho!

They have daily specials like $8.50/lb Ahi for your Ahi Poke. (edit: Costco was $9.99/lb)

If nothing else, remember this:
- They only accept cash.
- The American Heart Association recommends eating fish(particularly fatty fish) at least TWO TIMES A WEEK.
- Fish has Omega-3 fatty acids that your heart benefits from! (Although it won't help with a broken heart. I tried!)
- Consult your doctor about which fish you can eat if you're pregos.

You can always bet that dinner is going to be a treat when planning starts with stopping in J.R.'s to see what's fresh.  The fact that I'm the first to review tells me that this market really is the secret I thought it was.  I love to wander in on my way home from work, see what's in the case and pick some lovely piece of fish to cook up for dinner.  

They have a delicious selection of both fresh and frozen seafood and the prices are fantastic.  Forget the tiny little over-priced selection at Safeway.   Super markets are a pain in the ass anyway.  Support a friendly mom & pop store like this and you'll eat better anyway.

There is just too much to choose from in their cases.  Giant fresh oysters at $0.75 each (the size of my hand), fresh ahi tuna, prawns, lobster, and on and on...

For dinner tonight, I chose a pound of fresh Chilean Sea Bass.  The quality was fabulous.  I pan seared it and covered it in home-made mango-tomatillo-chipolte salsa and fresh sour cream.  OMG!
