We analyze each services overall menu and seafood selection, although more options isn’t always better. Quality is weighted more heavily than quantity, especially considering some services specialize in a particular variety such as salmon, sushi-grade fish or fresh lobster. We note how easy the seafood selection is to navigate and how simple the ordering process is. We also take into consideration the level of transparency provided about the fish and seafood including those relating to sustainability. Some services offer detailed tracing of their products while others provide sparse information on the origin of the fish and seafood.

Testing seafood delivery services is largely anecdotal, but we’ve ordered at least one shipment of fish from every service on this list, often two or three deliveries. The biggest concern is freshness, so we take care in smelling, cooking and tasting every piece of fish sent from every service. If there are any sub-par pieces of seafood we’ll note them. We also look for any signs of insufficient packaging.
