NEW YORK – March 23, 2016 /MarketersMedia/ —
Citarella, New York City’s leading source for outstanding seafood for more than a century, offers convenient online ordering and nationwide delivery. With Citarella’s easy-to-use, online seafood store, http://www.Citarella.com/, customers across the country have access to the largest selection of fresh fish, shellfish, and seafood.
“We’re proud to announce that the famed quality associated with the Citarella brand is available to more customers,” owner Joe Gurrera said. “Our online store enables people from around the United States to enjoy the same fresh seafood that is served in some of New York City’s most famous restaurants. After sourcing the day’s freshest catch from the historic Fulton Fish Market, our expert fishmongers carefully pack every shipment by hand, ensuring that it arrives at its destination in pristine condition.”
Citarella’s reputation for excellence began more than 100 years ago, at its flagship location in New York City’s Upper West Side. In 1983 Joe heard that this already successful seafood shop was for sale; he bought it, committing from the beginning to deliver the utmost in quality, value, and freshness. Having worked in his family’s fish market as a child, Joe easily adopted his role as Citarella’s original fishmonger. For decades he would wake before dawn to walk the stalls at the fish market, sourcing the best seafood for his customers. His presence at the market helped him develop valuable relationships with dependable fisherman and it solidified his role as a seafood expert. His steadfast commitment to perfection earned Citarella marked distinction with the most dazzling selection of seafood, unparalleled in its caliber and freshness, Citarella is truly the seafood authority.
The Citarella brand prospered under Joe’s direction, expanding to seven locations in Manhattan, the Hamptons, and Greenwich, Connecticut. For Joe, the next step is providing even wider access to Citarella’s full line of fresh seafood — the motivation behind Citarella’s online seafood shop.
From dinnertime staples like shrimp and organic salmon to more exquisite selections like live lobster, sea urchin, or oysters, the variety of fresh seafood that Citarella can ship nationwide is unmatched. Seasonal favorites like soft-shell crab, Nantucket Bay scallops, and boned shad are just as easy to order as year-round staples like tuna steaks, mussels, and clams.

With features like secure online ordering, detailed product descriptions, and the ability to filter search results by texture, flavor, cooking preparation, and seasonality anyone in the United States can have access to ultra-fresh seafood or a quick Citarella fresh lobster delivery with the simple click of a button.
