We have a new location! Now located at 1039 1st Avenue in Beautiful Uptown Columbus! What started as a love for fresh seafood at a newly built shopping center in an obscure neck of the woods has, by popular demand, become Columbus' favorite restaurant for lunch and dinner. Chef Jamie Gruber started cooking a mouth-watering grilled grouper sandwich with a homemade basil mayo on a toasted sourdough bun as a takeout only item. Soon there was a line out the door and a demand for seating and more delicious, healthy, and fresh seafood items.

What exists now is not a far cry from its roots. Chef Gruber still holds to his philosophy of using different and unique fish and crustaceans accompanied by ingredients that complement, but never overpower or mask the flavor intended by nature. The staff still makes you feel at home whether you are dressed in t-shirts or dressed for the opera. The crowd still gets excited over fried catfish and raw oysters as well as daily specials like sauteed seabass with a blueberry compote and prosciutto wrapped halibut and of course do not forget The Market's Horseradish Encrusted Grouper.

The Market now has a varied selection of wines, by the glass or bottle, beer and mixed drinks for you to enjoy an evening of relaxation and culinary treats. The Market has a beautiful hand made bar for you to enjoy your favorite beverage after work, before or after dinner.  Of course, the ever popular mix of music is playing all the time.

Locals love to bring out of town guests to show off a bit of flavor that rivals the seafood of any coastal town or resort island. Husbands can never seem to go wrong with a birthday celebration for their wives at The Market where friends and family can share baskets of fried okra, fried green tomatoes with crab meat on top, or miniature lobster tails sauteed in a white wine, tomato, garlic broth.

The Market's new location is on the historical registery and has been refurbished to its original red brick walls, arch ways and floor to ceiling windows.  The quality of the food and the diversity of items makes it one of the most sought after reservations in town. This institution turns down the lights, turns up the music, and turns on the heat in the kitchen. The Market welcomes their loyal patrons, foodies, and newcomers alike, just don't forget the one rule...Behave or Leave!

See you soon!
