“ If you love old seafood markets, this one is for you! It’s right on the water where they catch the shrimp off of, and it just feels like a staple of the town. Gentlemen was very helpful inside and even put ice in our car cooler to keep the fish cold on our way back up to Wilmington. The ahi we had was phenomenal. I wish we lived closer because I would be there every week! Oh and our dog loved it as well! :) ”

“ My old friend Clyde Phillips who's seafood shop is just ten minutes from my house, often seems to read my mind when I visit his shop between the two bridges in Swansboro. All I have to do is ask, "What's your recommendation today?" and I know I am going to have a great meal when I get home. The fish that Clyde displays upon the ice in his counter is always fresh, clean, and quality cut. He knows his product... and as long as I have been coming to the shop between the bridges... has has always known what would serve up the best. There' just something magical... old days of the sea about that little shop. It's not fancy... but far more important it's real... and it is steeped in heritage. It is as it has long been a critical part of our community of Hubert, Stella, Bear Creek, Swansboro, Cape Carteret, and Cedar Point. Just ask anyone... they all know where Clyde's shop is... This weekend past I picked up a tuna steak from him. I grilled it this evening over hickory and mesquite, seasoned lightly with dried garlic, dill and lemon zest... I prepared some summer corn along with some of my home canned green beans for a dinner fit for a king. I made my own blonde dipping sauce seasoned with dill and turmeric, and then sat down to what has long been one of my favorite meals. The tuna steak turned out perfect, flaked at just the right point having absorbed the flavors of the seasoning while it sizzled on the grill without losing that unique fresh from the sea taste. Each flake dipped in the sauce melted tenderly in my mouth as I savored every bite of the meal. It's a flavor you just can't capture in a two inch wedge of tuna caught halfway around the world flash frozen and sold in pricey tiny portions in the big box stores. Phillips seafood is not fancy... it's real... like the fishmongers of old... and when one want the very best... most of us in our area know where to go... There's only one Clyde Phillips Seafood. ”
