The Shake Family's Sustainable Seafood Restaurants

It has been estimated that as much as 70% of the world's commercially fished species have been harvested at or beyond the level of sustainability. In other words, we are taking them from the ocean faster than they can reproduce, or even reach reproductive age. In the United States, 67% of the dollars spent on seafood is consumed as meals in a restaurant. The choices that restaurants, and you, make can have a profound impact on the health of the oceans fisheries, and the ablility of the worlds oceans to feed our children's generation. This is why the Monterey Seafood Restaurants of the Shake family have adopted the Seafood Watch Program guidelines, to help bring into action the mission statement of the Monterey Bay Aquarium and to practice conservation of the Oceans.
