I've been looking for real fresh seafood in Denver for a long time and yesterday I found Tom's. I picked up a pound of large shrimp from Tom yesterday and it was probably the best shrimp I've ever had in the Denver area in the 30+ years I've lived here. Happy I found Tom's. Excellent fresh seafood at reasonable prices. If you love real fresh seafood the way it's supposed to be then I highly recommend Tom's Seafood and Specialties. Enjoy!!

I found Tom's when hunting for live lobsters for a Birthday celebration and a Safeway Seafood clerk sent me over. I have now been going to Tom's for several years and have NEVER been disappointed. I live near downtown and happily make the drive whenever I want something special. His prices are reasonable for the quality. I won't even bother with Whole Food's seafood anymore - often times it looks great but too often disappoints. I buy fish from Tom's that I use for sushi, sashimi, crudo and very lightly marinated Ceviche and have always been absolutely thrilled!! His filets are cut beautifully and I never get stringy connective tissue bits in the tuna or salmon. Everything always smells fresh and tastes delicious! Whenever I am having a party or other special occasion I call Tom, tell him what I'm looking for and let him help me figure out what to order. He is a genius about figuring out portions. He is happy to make suggestions about preparing the fish and often has beautiful cuts of beef available for a quick surf and turf. Tom's may be one of the last places left in the Metro area that can provide things like salt cod and lutefisk. If you want something special I recommend you call ahead and order in advance. His oysters are SO GOOD that they knocked the socks off a friend from the East Coast visiting last Spring. I am always proud to serve the fish I get from Tom's.
Pros: Service, no charge for special orders, knowledgable staff
Cons: It is pricey - but it's FRESH seafood!
