Having visited this fish market twice in Sydney, I've noticed it's a popular stop for Chinese tour groups. However, the seafood prices can be quite inflated, and many stalls are operated by Chinese vendors. While it's fine if you're looking for a lively market atmosphere, I wouldn't recommend it for an authentic Australian seafood experience.
