Peninsula & All Shores Seafood

I been coming here for the past year that I lived in San Bruno, this place is just a phenomenon. Great service and quality of their products, I am so lucky to be living to a establishment like this.

My wife had the idea to have Lobster for Christmas (such a good idea).
She found Peninsula on Unilocal with lots of good reviews.
It is a really nice experience very friendly staff and great seafood. They gave us tips on cooking. We also bought scallops, they looked so fresh.
It was all delicious. I do need to work on my cooking skills.
Also prices are reasonable.

Nice people. very friendly. prices for seafood is pretty cheap. the only seafood place that I trust of buying some fresh seafood!!!

This was my first time here. I came to pick up some fresh salmon last minute for dinner. They close at 6pm and I called at 5:55 asking if they could wait for me. James asked me how much I would need and what kind of fish I was interested in, he said they can have it waiting for me. I got there at 6pm sharp and the salmon was one of the best ones I’ve ever bought. Thank you James!

Great place to get fresh sea food

Pretty fresh and cheap way to do seafood. The guys that work there are friendly, knowledgable, and easy going. They let me try an oyster right there in the shop. It was damn good too. You can buy all the fixings for a seafood BBQ including ice, sauce, and shuckers. We bought two dozen oysters, 1 pound clams, 1 pound mussels, and a shucker. The total was a very low 60 BUCKS!
Watch out because their oysters are from Chesapeake bay and you can easily get little pearl crabs in the oysters. They are harmless and even considered a delicacy some places.

The most fresh and delicious seafood in the bay area! I planned a lobster feed at my house for 24 people and ordered my lobsters from a company back in Maine to have them delivered the day of my party by noon. At 630am I get a call saying the lobsters would not be there until 9pm. Panicking I call all over trying to find fresh lobsters. I was so fortunate to have found this place! Dan was so awesome to work with — he had beautiful robust lobsters and at a fantastic price. Everybody raved about how tender and sweet they were! Our family was so impressed we will be using them for all our seafood needs! Thank you Dan for saving the day and having the best lobsters!

I love this place. Great seafood and friendly service.

In a bind? Need fresh seafood? Need suggestions? Need a recipe suggestion for anything they have on their fresh rotating menu? This is the place then. I heard the owner is on the East Coast half the time selecting seafood and airlifting it straight over to provide the fresh rotating inventory. And the prices are as low as it gets and they provide ice with purchases. Friendly knowledgeable staff and easy parking!

I had a crab feed this past weekend and they provided the crab. I had so many people raving on how great the crab was. Everybody was so happy and Larry from All Shores was so very helpful.
Wouldn’t ever consider purchasing it from anybody else.
Thanks again for making our event a success.

Excellent choice of seafood and it is always always fresh. When you walk in you can see what fish they have for that day. The staff is always very helpful and knowledgeable of the seafood they have.
I have never never ever been disappointed.
Keep up the great service and high quality of seafood Gentlemen.

Our family has been getting crabs from this place for many years. It’s great to be able to reserve your crabs in advance and pick them up without a hassle. Crabs are cracked by them and just a little marinade (vermouth, lemon, & garlic) make for an excellent meal.

Wonderful little fish market. I have been looking for a local fish monger who sells FRESH fish. The gentleman who helped me was very very helpful in providing me the best cut of salmon for my science experiment /​new recipe to try: homemade lox. While I was waiting for him to pack up the fish, I took a quick look athe other seafood products, all the other products, especially the snapper, scallops, tuna, looked fresh.
I frequently drive by this market on my way to work in the early morning and I see this market receives new shipments every morning.
Given that this market is convenient, clean, does *not* smell like a typical fish market, and has a variety of fresh seafood, I am likely to shop here again and recommend it to anyone looking for fresh fish in the peninsula.

My family and I have relied on Peninsula/​All Shores for our seafood needs for years! Whether its Dungeness crab or just a fresh piece of fish, this is the place to go! I stopped in to pick up some prawns, scallops and squid for a seafood risotto and walked out with almost 4 pounds for $ 35. The guys behind the counter are super helpful and friendly! They take the time to answer questions and even accommodated my request for some ice packs for the drive home.

Came back to grab some lobster, king crab legs, and whatever else seemed decently priced at the time.
I think my 1.5 lb lobster was something like $ 11 a pound? Anyways it was cheaper than JR Seafood, whatever their price was. They wrapped up the guy in paper, dipped it in water, and wrapped it again in heavy duty paper and plastic. I was told he should keep fine in the fridge for about a couple of days, although I cooked Mr. Pinchy the next day.
They didn’t have any live dungeness crab so I just got some King Crab Legs instead, which ended up being super delicious.
Clam was $ 3.99 a lb, which ended being the same price as Sun Fat Seafood. I ended up getting the clams at Sun Fat though.
Mr. Pinchy was to be steamed the next day. He was still kicking by the time I pulled him out of the fridge 20 hours later. Threw him in the steamer for maybe 17 minutes or so, pulled him out, and cracked him open to beautiful, sweet, delicious lobster meat. Actually, I experienced tomalley for the first time! I never knew that there was this fatty green goop inside lobsters, and was just going to clean it out, but my friends told me it was edible! And it was edible and really delicious.
Service was very friendly and they did a good job putting up with me and my indecisiveness.

I am having a large birthday party and am going to serve lobster tails. Normally, I cook lobster tails for Christmas and know that the quality of lobster can be hit or miss. So, my family and I decided to do a trial run before the party by buying lobster from several places and cooking them up.
Our first 2 stops today were at the New England Lobster Market and this establishment. The New England Market was CRAZY busy, yet the 2 men behind the counter patiently answered my questions and helped me picked several frozen lobster tails.
My hubby and I then headed over to Peninsula. The place was empty. The young man at the counter was so nice; however, there was another gentleman (I won’t post names, but I did take down their names) had an attitude the minute he found out we had first gone to the New England place. I was asking questions and he seemed irritated. He told us, in a rather rude tone, that Peninsula gets their lobster tails from the New England Market and there was no sense in going to 2 different places to buy lobster. REALLY? Okay. If that’s the case, then I might as well have headed back to New England Market where both employees were nice.
We got home and allowed the lobster tails to defrost. Remember… we are testing lobster tails, so we cleverly marked our lobster so we would know which was which.
The minute I cut open the raw lobster from the Peninsula Market, red stuff poured out from the lobsters. I have never seen lobster do that before, but my husband said he thought that meant the lobster must be fresh. (I had a feeling he was wrong. lol)
I prepared all the lobsters (which were roughly the same size) at the same time. While cooking, the lobsters from the Peninsula market continued to ooze red liquid while the ones from New England did not.
When I pulled the lobsters out from their shells, the lobsters from the Peninsula literally… NO EXAGGERATION… fell apart. They were mushy and gooey while the ones from New England were perfect.
But the real test came when I served the lobster to my family in a blind taste test. Both my husband and daughter asked why one lobster was mush. I told them to eat it and don’t comment until after. Lo and behold, the lobster from Peninsula was DISGUSTING!!! We took our lobster tails and dumped them in the trash. We LOVED the lobster form New England.
I’m really confused. If this place is buying their lobster from New England Market, WHY is it red and mushy? I will NEVER go back here again.

Wow where have you been all my life??? I just discovered this gem last year… i gotta say its the freshes crab my hubby and i ever had. We use to go to joes crabshack at pier 39 to get our crab fixin but after discovering this place we are loyal customers and come here atleast 1 a month usually for their crab but their lobster tails and shrimp are also a great choice. fresh and cheap… i highly recommend it…

It’s hard to miss a giant inflatable crab on a main street. I had to know what this crab was trying to tell me! As soon as I could open my app so Unilocal could tell me what that giant inflatable crab was telling me… And boy did the Unilocalers speak!
My first visit was for crab legs and clams. The price was so great and the shellfish was so fresh! I was sold.
This is also the only place where I have been able to get great quality king crab legs. No more ordering them from Seattle for this girl! The king crab legs are exactly like what you would get at Pike Place market — HUGE legs, sweet, briny, and delicious! I have been back multiple times to get my king crab fix. At $ 17.99 per lb, you can’t lose.
Yesterday we decided to throw an oyster party, and I picked a case of virginia oysters (Chesapeake Bay) for $ 63.50!!! There were about 100 of them in the case. I also picked up a great shucking knife for $ 4.50. In the entire case, only 1 oyster was a dud. I like those odds! They were your standard Chesapeake Bay oysters — large, meaty, and a very mild briny flavor. Perfect for barbecuing, or shooting with a splash of lemon and Tabasco! You can also buy oysters for 80 cents a piece if you can’t finish an entire case. They last for about a week in the refrigerator… Just make sure that they’re cold and can breathe (don’t forget that they’re live when you buy them!)
This place is definitely a gem! You get waaaaay better seafood and much better prices than at any grocery store. Happy shucking!

From out of state, but here for extended stay. We normally hit up seafood center in the city but staying in San Bruno, Unilocaled and this place popped up. They cook the crabs out front! What?! Cool.
We load all up and head in around 3. Friendly service. Quality product. Crab was delicious, ate that ASAP. Steamer clams are on menu for later tonight. Big sea scallops are on deck too. We told them we would be back, my mom had her eye on oysters specifically for some BBQ oysters…
We got 2 lbs steamer clams, ½ lb of sea scallops and 2 crabs (not sure of weight) came out around $ 43 I think.
Edited to add: In hindsight an itemized receipt would be nice.

If you have an avid love affair with seafood and want to bring fresh ocean delectables home to enjoy, this is the place! If they don’t have it, they will order it for you. They will also take orders ahead of time and have it ready for pick up at the time of your choice. If you buy in bulk, sometimes a discount is offered on top of their already reasonable prices. They’ll even provide you with some ice or ice packs if you have some distance to go with your seafood in which case an icebox is optimal to bring. What else can be better than fresh seafood and excellent, accommodating customer service? The prices! Where else can you get fresh Bluepoint Oysters to enjoy raw at 80 cents each? Jonesing for some sashimi at home? Their ahi tuna is that good! So random, but they also sell alligator meat. I’ve never tried it here though. Regardless, I absolutely love this place!
