ELITE EXCLUSIVE ONCE A YEAR OFFER – Wild Alaska Copper River King Salmon

One of the most sought-after seafood delicacies in the world has arrived.

reef is proud to offer our customers the extremely rare opportunity to purchase Wild Alaska Copper River King Salmon, an exceptionally limited, once-a-year seasonal catch renowned for its rich marbling, buttery texture, vibrant color, and unmatched flavor. Considered by many chefs and seafood enthusiasts to be the finest salmon available anywhere in the world, Copper River King Salmon is only available for a very short window each year.

As of Tuesday, June 2nd, we are able to special order fresh Copper River King Salmon directly from our fishmongers in Alaska and have it delivered within 1–2 days.

Current Price: $100 per pound (price is subject to change daily)

For comparison, one of the closest retailers we found offering this same premium product is in Dayton, Ohio, where it is currently selling for $119.99 per pound.

Due to the rarity, limited availability, and significant cost associated with sourcing this exceptional fish, all Copper River King Salmon orders must be prepaid at the time of ordering.

If you would like to reserve some for yourself, please call us at:

859-810-7333 (REEF)

Simply let us know how many pounds you would like, and we will gladly place your order.

Availability is extremely limited and is offered on a first-come, first-served basis.

Experience one of the world’s most celebrated seafood delicacies while it is in season.

Copper River King (Chinook) salmon is highly prized for its velvety texture, rich flavor, and exceptional concentration of healthy Omega-3 fats. Harvested during a strictly limited, early-season run in Alaska, its premium quality and rarity earn it a reputation as the "wagyu beef" or "Rolls Royce" of salmon.

Why It's Special?
Intense Energy Reserves: The Copper River is notoriously swift and spans 300 miles. To survive this grueling journey, the King (the largest of the Copper River species) packs on a massive amount of healthy, Omega-3 rich fat.Melt-In-Your-Mouth Flavor: This high natural fat content yields a delicate, buttery taste that is remarkably mild and far from "fishy".

The Season & Catch -
When: The fishery traditionally opens in mid-May through June, both in the ocean near the river delta and up the river itself. Drift gillnet fishing takes place in the open waters of the Copper River District in the Gulf of Alaska, right near the mouth of the river near Cordova, Alaska.

Rarity: The run is closely regulated for sustainability, and the catch of King salmon is extremely limited, making it highly sought-after by top chefs and fine seafood enthusiasts. The commercial season is strictly managed by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G), with highly anticipated, brief openings (often 12 to 24 hours at a time).

Don’t miss out on this very limited opportunity. Please share 🙏

Hey Seafood Lovers!…Captain John here!…l just wanted to personally say ‘thank you’ to everyone for the support since we’ve reopened as Reef!… it’s been amazing!…but I also wanted to ask everyone to keep up the support while we’re making the transition to the new shop. It’s still going to be another month or so, and we could use all of the help and support that we can get, as there is a lot to be done with permits, renovations, construction licenses, and everything else that goes into opening a new business! So again…thank you!….but don’t forget us between now and then. I’d love to see your smiling faces!…and it couldn’t be a more perfect time of year for fresh fish anyways! So come on down …say ‘Hi’…and keep supporting! Thank you again…The Captain!… oh …and by the way, that’s me and my 91-year-old mother!❤️
