Come to the market, choose, bargain, make a purchase. You go to a nearby restaurant, they cook for you. You're eating. Wash it down with wine.
But!!! Squid Norway or our Pacific Ocean. King prawns are the same. The trout is artificial. Local mullet, needle fish, possibly squid, but there is no certainty.
The price is more expensive than in Moscow.
But it's a rest.
It's expensive and they don't cook very well. The smell of fish can knock an unprepared person off their feet.

From the local perhaps sargan, mullet, mullet, mussels, the rest is not local. It's interesting for once, as for me. Everything is fresh. We ate and rested!
To be honest, it's a sad place, like the Stone Age. I live in Siberia, the city of Tyumen, we have modern food markets, everything is made for people, clean, beautiful.
Worthy of a visit. Choose, bargain, go from one seller to another. Interesting.
The barker will walk with you, bring you to his sellers, and then take you to a restaurant to his own.
Touts are not intrusive. You can do all this yourself

Honestly, I don't like fish, and once I got to this place, now I can recommend it to everyone, it's the most delicious fish I've ever eaten in my life!
The market is like a market, they trade, offer, shout. We took local mullet and mullet, the rest is brought from Turkey. It was cleaned immediately. Fish is sold by weight, shrimp and octopus by the piece. The market is small, there are 10-12 stalls, prices need to be clarified, everyone has different ones, when you ask, they think about it, they name it depending on your type, how much you are a tourist.
A runner immediately picks up the fish and takes you to a restaurant that roasts it. That's where the "fun" begins. They tell you: it costs 6 GEL kg to fry. Are you asking if it's half a kilo? They say: 3 lari. BUT! YOUR FISH IS NOT WEIGHED, EVEN IF YOU ASK! When asked about the weigh-in, they joked that it would not be more than 100 lari for sure.
As a result, for frying our 0.5 kg, 6 lari were included in the bill as per kilogram.
The second divorce: frying and grilling are DIFFERENT GEL 6 per kg! There will be 2 lines in the bill! Two times 6!
The third divorce: the cost of grilling shrimp and octopus PIECE by PIECE. I.e. fry shrimp - 1.5 lari! One - 1.5 GEL! Open an oyster, one, 1.5 lari!
NO ONE TALKS ABOUT IT! No barker, no runner, no restaurant! Be vigilant!
And the fourth: the restaurant's service is 15%. It's written about it in the menu. But! Frying fish, "with rounding", is included in the receipt and these 15% are also credited to it. Service for service. And your 6 GEL turns into 6.9 GEL, almost 7!
They swore, threw off 1 GEL.
The fish was fried delicious, very tasty. They sat at a table above the sea, the views were pleasing. Everything was great until the bill was paid. Outright deception ruined the whole impression. Be prepared and ask the cost of grilling and frying clearly before frying.
Once was enough to get a tourist experience, we will not go any more.
It is very convenient that you can buy fish at the market and immediately cook it in a restaurant. The main thing is that they can cook it!
But they say that it is not always good.
We got some good cooks.
Well, I can say that the market is like a market. Stink and unsanitary conditions as usual. The price is not bad in winter, We cooked our seafood in the last restaurant, he turned out to be a normal fishdom
Freshly caught fish that you buy at the market can be cooked in a nearby cafe, which is very convenient! The process is perfectly organized, everything is smoothly, quickly and deliciously cooked. I'm sorry I didn't try the oysters! For that, we tried the igloo fish, the taste of which we really liked! A large selection in a small market. If I am in Batumi, I will definitely arrange a fish day!
The advantage of the market is that the fish is really fresh, but a huge minus is the local cafe Neptune, where we went to cook it. The fish was cooked well and decorated with octopuses. It was immediately clear that it was a divorce, but octopuses on the market cost 2 lari, so we decided not to pay attention to the waiter and eat them. As soon as they were eaten, the waiter came up and blah, blah, they say they got mixed up, please pay. OK, but they were counted for 4 lari (4 pcs) and added the cost of cooking 5 lari. There was an unpleasant conversation about the inflated cost, but it was useless. I was here 8 years ago and advised everyone to visit. Now at your discretion, be attentive to the service, I'm sorry that the young cartels have sunk so low. Fortunately, I see that not everything, but the trend is not encouraging.
The sea products are fresh. There are a lot of people in the restaurant waiting for an order for a long time. Although there are a lot of them . Perhaps we have entered such a
You buy fish at the market, then the seller takes you to a restaurant by the sea and they cook it for you in the kitchen, at 2 lari per kg, the shrimp were over-dried, the place is tourist, they don't buy meat there, but this is my observation
Prices are like in the Bahamas.
It was in May 2023.
Lamb - 1500₽/kg
Kalkan - 2600-3000₽/kg
But the choice is not bad
There are plenty of fresh and different fish, shellfish. There are trout, red trout caviar. It is possible for an additional fee.You can roast a fish right at the market.
They can just clean it.
It's a very good idea. First, you can go to the hangar, there are several stalls with various fish and other seafood. The price is about two times cheaper than in Moscow. Then with what you took, if it's fish, then they also clean it, you go to a restaurant where they will cook it all on the grill. In the restaurant itself, you can also order other dishes from salads to pastries.
A lot of seafood, immediately gutted, cleaned and cut. And the guys from the nearest restaurants fly in so that you can go eat this fish from them, for a fee they will cook for you and put you in their restaurant near the sea.
Smelly, dark, cramped - the first words of the impression. Dishonest merchants, set up to deceive the buyer by weight, redirect you to touts from nearby restaurants, where they are also ready to cheat relaxed and frowned upon customers. The quality of the product being sold requires attention when choosing. I don't recommend it. Go straight to the restaurant. Taking into account the body kit on the market, the restaurant will be cheaper.
To say that you are shocked by the market is like saying nothing:
- at the entrance, you are greeted by a puddle of melted ice from the counters, which is driven all over the market to the drain
- the barkers from the cafe are attacking
- the market itself is 10 stalls behind a fence
A very small market. The floor is wet, it seems dirty and slippery, be careful. The prices are almost the same for everyone. The fish and shrimp are the freshest, lying on ice. Prices are the same as in Moscow. It's quite expensive. The market smells unpleasant, the parking is tiny.
