approximately 5 pounds - 1-3 fillets - Maui

Mahimahi (also known as the Dolphinfish) is the best-known ambassador for Hawaiian seafood. It is often served fresh in the most up-scale restaurants.

The supply of locally-caught fish is extremely limited and seasonal considering the high demand for this species. It is a bit more plentiful in the spring and autumn.

Mahimahi has a firm flesh that turns off-white when cooked. Its meaty, firm flesh has a mild flavor slightly sweet flavor, making it perfect for most fish recipes. It is excellent broiled, blackened, deep-fried, pan-fried, poached and stir-fried.

Mahimahi is considered sustainable because it grows and reproduces so quickly. They can grow up to 90 pounds, although most Mahimahi are between 8 and 30 pounds. 5 pounds of Mahimahi will come in 1-3 fillets.

Mahimahi is available most of the year - although more prevalent between March and May, and between September and November. Fresh Mahimahi is processed and shipped out the same day. Purchase price includes the cost of expedited shipping.

You must pre-order your Mahimahi by end-of-day Thursday for shipping the following week. Please indicate what ship week you would like if you are ordering farther in advance. We will ship early in the week to ensure the fish arrives before the weekend. You will be contacted by e-mail to confirm your order.
