🌊 Fresh Catch, Reimagined 🍽️

A Gulfside favorite finds new life inland—and we’re proud to be part of the journey.

When Hurricane Ian devastated Fort Myers Beach in 2022, it seemed like the end for iconic spots Fresh Catch Bistro and Junkanoo. But thanks to resilience, vision, and community support, the dream lives on.

Now reborn as @freshcatchinland in Estero’s Coconut Point, this new location honors the legacy of founders Alfredo Russo and Tony Scialdone—while embracing creativity under the leadership of Franco Russo and Executive Chef Tyler Edwards. Think spiced pecan-crusted Gulf grouper, citrus-splashed day boat scallops, and rotating menus that keep guests coming back.

At Samuels, we’re honored to supply the fresh, top-quality seafood that fuels this next chapter. Here's to tradition, innovation, and unforgettable flavors. 🐟🔥

📍 If you're near Naples or Fort Myers, don’t miss it.

🎣🔥 Chef Jenny Perez x Chesapeake Blue Catfish

We caught up with Baltimore Orioles’ own Chef Jenny Perez as she whipped up a quick dish featuring one of the Bay’s most invasive (and underrated) species: wild-caught Chesapeake blue catfish.

Supporting sustainability never tasted so good. 💪🐟

Shoutout to Chef Jenny for turning this devastating yet delicious species into a home-run meal! ⚾️🍽️

🖤🐟 Also known as black cod, wild Alaska sablefish offers a velvety texture and rich taste. High in omega-3s, it's perfect for smoking, grilling, or broiling. Its buttery flesh absorbs marinades beautifully, making it ideal for a miso-glazed preparation or simple pan-searing.

🐟✨ From Coastal Roots to Culinary Heights: The Blue Hen ✨🐟

In the heart of Rehoboth Beach, DE, @thebluehenrehoboth has been making waves since opening in 2017. Led by Executive Chef Julia Robinson and General Manager/Sommelier Heather Sharp, this vibrant spot quickly earned a James Beard Award nomination for Best New Restaurant — a rare and remarkable achievement.

Today, Julia and Heather continue to shape The Blue Hen with a menu that celebrates bold seafood flavors and fresh seasonal ingredients:

Signature Dishes:
🌟 The beloved Lobster Toast — featuring lobster, ginger, scallions, jalapeño, dashi aioli, and unagi.
🌟 Handmade Tajarin pasta — rich with egg yolks, served with lobster, tomato cream, and confit fennel.
🌟 A stunning Seafood Platter — shucked oysters, shrimp cocktail, ceviche, crudo, and smoked fish dip.
🌟 Seasonal Bluefin Tuna Crudo — with passion fruit leche de tigre, cucumber, mint, and sesame.

Open six days a week (soon to be daily for summer!), The Blue Hen is walk-in only — early arrival is highly recommended to experience their unforgettable hospitality, curated wines, and seafood-forward creativity.

Proud to supply incredible seafood to such a talented team! 🦞🌊

🌊 Spotlight on Wild Alaska Shortraker Rockfish!

🌊 Spotlight on Wild Alaska Shortraker Rockfish! 🌊

Did you know some rockfish can live over 120 years? 🐟 That's right — and Alaska’s Shortraker Rockfish is part of that incredible legacy. Sustainably harvested from the wild, these meaty, mild, and flaky fish are a chef’s dream: perfect for grilling, sautéing, poaching, or beer-battered into the ultimate Baja-style tacos. 🌮

At Samuels, we proudly source from fisheries certified by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) and Alaska Responsible Fisheries Management (RFM) — ensuring that Shortraker and other Alaska rockfish will be around for generations to come.

🧂 Lean. Tender. Nutritious.
💪 High in protein, omega-3s, and packed with Vitamin D and Selenium.

When it comes to rockfish, #AskForAlaska — and ask for it at Samuels!

Bring something special to the table — Golden Ti

Bring something special to the table — Golden Tilefish! 🌟➡🍽

Special for tonight only: Midwest and Mid-Atlantic customers can enjoy house-cut, skin-on fillets of Tilefish at $18.75/lb*.

This firm, pinkish-white fish cooks up to a snowy white with a mild, slightly sweet flavor, similar to lobster or crab. Thanks to its crustacean-based diet, Tilefish offers a unique, rich taste.

It’s versatile and easy to prepare — great for frying, grilling, pan-searing, or adding to soups and stews. It also crisps up nicely when baked or broiled.

Tilefish pairs well with simple lemon-butter herb sauces, but it’s bold enough to handle Cajun spices or chili-lime marinades.

Caught sustainably from Massachusetts to Texas, Tilefish is a smart choice for both your menu and the planet.

Add it to your lineup and give your guests something to remember!
