With the busiest service of the year approaching, we’ve curated a list of premium finfish and appetizers designed to elevate your NYE menus and streamline your holiday prep.

Featured Selections:

• Maryland Blue Crab Fingers: These are a must-have for the holiday rush. Perfect for chilled platters or sautéed in a garlic-herb butter for a classic, high-margin appetizer that requires minimal labor.
• Bluefin Tuna: The gold standard for a celebration. Ideal for a celebratory crudo, carpaccio, or a high-end tataki feature to start the evening.
• Black Grouper & Redfish Fillets: Both offer a firm, meaty texture that holds up beautifully in high-volume services. Whether blackened, grilled, or served with a rich hollandaise, these are reliable, high-quality options for a holiday prix fixe.
• Mahi Mahi Fillet: A bright, lean option for guests looking for a lighter start to the new year without sacrificing flavor or quality.
