It is really hard for me to review Wholey's in one post because I am not sure what the store is trying to be.  Is it a modern fish market? Is it a grocery store?  I would just like Wholey's to choose an identity and strive to be great at it.  \n\nI was always taught that a good fish market shouldn't smell fishy. Too many times Wholey's smells like the inside of my tackle box. The fish selection at Wholey's is greater than your normal supermarket but not what I would expect from a top notch fish market. I am not a big fan of all of their processed frozen fish product.  Also the the quality to price ratio seems to be a little off.  With that said there are deals to be had if you pay attention.  My other issue is with Wholey's as a full service fish monger.  Every time I have had a question about a type of fish the staff had seemed pretty ignorant.  I would put them at the level of a giant eagle employee but lower than the monger at Whole Foods.  I also  take issue with Wholey's charging for scaling or even taking the fins and tail off of a fish.  This has been complimentary at any real fish monger that I have ever been to.\n\nThis weekend I purchased 2 pounds of the ocean perch filets that were on sale thinking that they would be a quick ingredient for a dinner party that I was hosting. Today, when I went to pull them out, I found to my dismay, that they were poorly butchered.  Every filet had large portions that had not been scaled completely and the filets had bones (not pin bones) hanging off the bottom. This added over an hour to my prep time and left me quite unsatisfied. If I had wanted to take the time to break a fish down I would have purchased whole fish from the start.  Needless to say I expected more from one of Pittsburgh's premier fish mongers. I also emailed Wholey's and have still not received a response.  \n\nWill I go back? Probably. But only because they are the only place that I can pork belly that is not frozen  Just be aware that there are better fish mongers in Pittsburgh and even in the Strip.
