A South Jersey seafood market has been named among the best seafood spots in the state. 

According to Yelp, Barbera Seafood Market in Atlantic City received a 4.6-star rating based on 284 reviews. The market, located at 2243 Arctic Ave. in Atlantic City, has maintained a high reputation for the "freshest fish ever, at the best price." 

Proprietor Dominic Alcaro and his team have enabled the market to respond to customer needs. Loyal patrons name the Flounder Fish Sandwich, the Fried Smelt Platter, and the Soft-Shell Crab Sandwich among some of the best offerings available. The market is also the place to find the freshest seafood for the Italian Feast of the Seven Fishes celebration during the Christmas season.

According to one Yelp reviewer, Deforio B.,  "This place never disappoints. The fish is light, crispy, and golden brown. The bread is always fresh. There are high-top tables and chairs inside. If you're like me, you want to eat fish while it's hot, so take a seat inside or run back to your car, put the seat back and eat up."

According to an App.com report, Yelp reported searches for seafood have increased by 34% this year. Yelp's research also revealed that seafood boils are popular, everyone thinks "market" means impeccably fresh, and relaxed, casual seafood restaurants have high appeal.
