*a note on our weekly deliveries from monterey fish!


the fish delivered to you is handed to us fresh on monday morning (it's the last thing we add to your meal prep bundle). since monterey fish is a direct supplier working with boats as they come in with fresh seafood, this means thats the fish is almost always a few days fresher than if you purchased it at the grocery store. this means that it will typically remain fresh for a few days! 


if you are not sure that you'll get to your fish while still fresh, freezing is always an option. if you want to make sure it is still fresh, do what chefs do! a quick smell test. if the fish smells fresh and clean, that's your best indicator. 


long story short: seafood from monterey fish will typically stay fresh until at least wednesday or thursday, otherwise it will always freeze well!
