South AfricaAmazing Fish!!!!!!
The striped Marlin steaks were divine. Did them on the braai with olive oil lemon juice and butter. Salt and Pepper as well. Outstanding. Same goes for the Swordfish steaks and cape salmon. First time I’ve eaten fish that is better than red snapper. Yipeeeeee!!! Also quick delivery and excellent packaging. The fish was taken to Nigeria and enjoyed with my work buddies!!!! Thank you Greenfish and gang!!!
South AfricaWill definitely buy again.
Loved the freshness and taste.

South AfricaStriped Marlin Steaks
Excellent quality. Really enjoyed this and will definitely buy again.
South AfricaDelicious fish
Had marlin from Greenfish at friends and was so impressed that I ordered some for myself. They marinaded their marlin steaks in an Asian sauce and pan fried, the flavour was 5*. I found it to be similar to tuna but a less dense and gentler flavour. Once again impressed with the delivery and the quality of the fish , it’s such a joy to have a fish supplier like Greenfish!
South AfricaMarlin was amazing
This fish was a revelation. I did it with a Honey and Soy glaze and the flavour was amazing. Somewhere between Tuna and maybe Halibut - was delicious and will order again if stock is available.
South AfricaDelicious
Such a great company and such great service. The fish was fresh and delicious!! Haven’t tried this fish before, but definitely will try it again. Thanks so much.
South AfricaWell packed, timeous delivery and very fresh produce
Thank you for always meeting my expectations. I have acquired so many new customers for you, but well deserved. Keep up the impressive service and quality.
South AfricaExcellent service and quality
My experience with Greenfish has been absolutely phenomenal! I placed an order around 9:30am and received it before 2PM on the same day. Impeccable service aside, the fish itself was a sight to behold, any fresher and it would have still been swimming in the sea. The quality of the fish itself was amazing and was absolutely delicious. I would not hesitate in making future purchases from Greenfish.
South AfricaMarlin Steaks
Ordered at 9:30 am delivered before 3. So fresh, seared off in a pan with salt, pepper and some fine South African extra virgin olive oil and paired with boiled new potatoes and a classic beurre blanc. Wednesday night dinners done properly!
