Fishmonger Nashville is the kind of place that instantly puts you in a good mood. Located in the very cool new Neuhoff district in Germantown, Fishmonger packs lots a great flavors into a casual menu. The smoked fish dip is incredible — creamy, smoky, and impossible to stop eating. The blackened grouper Caesar salad is packed with flavor and has just the right kick, and the hamachi crudo is fresh, bright, and beautifully done.
And don’t even think about leaving without trying the key lime pie — easily the best I’ve ever had. Tart, smooth, crumbly crust, and the perfect finish to the meal.
Owner Skip is awesome — warm, welcoming, and clearly loves what he does. Fishmonger feels like a little coastal escape right in Nashville. Can’t wait to go back.

3.5 I called in a pick up order for the hot fish sandwich this review is only on the sandwich. I will definitely be back to dine in. The ambiance is up my Alley. The hot fish sandwich was a little disappointing I thought I was going to get a filet the size of my head. It was an decent length but not as meaty as the pictures I’ve seen online and ig. The flavor is nice it’s a new spin on Nashville hot flavor, the celery salad is a nice addition adding crunch and acidity. The ranch is 5 stars! Great ranch sauce. Definitely worth checking out

I placed a pickup order for the hot fish sandwich, and this review is focused solely on that item. I do plan to return for a dine-in experience—the ambiance is absolutely my style and worth exploring further.
As for the sandwich itself, it was slightly underwhelming. Based on photos I’d seen online and on Instagram, I expected a generously sized filet, but what I received was of decent length and lacked the hearty, meaty texture I anticipated. That said, the flavor profile was enjoyable—a fresh take on the classic Nashville hot style. The celery salad added a pleasant crunch and acidity that balanced the heat nicely.
The standout component was the ranch sauce: rich, flavorful, and easily a five-star element on its own.
Overall, while the sandwich didn’t quite meet expectations visually, the taste and thoughtful accompaniments make it worth trying. I’m looking forward to experiencing more of the menu in person.

Our server was very knowledgeable and friendly. I saw the bartender interacting with the guests too. They have the cutest dog friendly patio. The food was subpar and overpriced. I loved the atmosphere and May return for drinks. It was my birthday lunch and I left completely underwhelmed and honestly still a little hungry. Not what i expected from a 200.00 meal. I’ll enclose pics. Buyer beware though.

This was a lovely food experience! We had several items off the menu, including the Caesar salad with blackened grouper (the dressing was amazing) and the tuna tartare. The sides were also excellent (special shout out to the beet salad). Highly recommend this cool spot!

Fishmonger! A very beautiful and vibrantly designed interior.
Quick, friendly and no nonsense service. It is cashless so keep that in mind. Without further ado let’s get into the food. We ordered the:
[$18] Market Oysters – The oysters were great. Fresh and to the point.
[$13] Chowder – The chowder was my absolute favorite thing.
A thinner soup but the flavor definitely packed a punch. It had a vinegar-y essence which I loved.
[$20] Hot Fish Sandwich – Huge. Very spicy. Good flavor.
[$17] Gulf Shrimp Roll – I liked this but didn’t love it. With the shrimp being cold about halfway through I didn’t really want it anymore.
Overall, I do think it can get a little on the pricey side depending on how much you want to try. I’d say 2 people is the sweet spot personally. A good experience & I’ll be back to try the mussels eventually! (I would’ve but they had ran out so I’m thinking they are a hit)

Skip and his crew provided the most special family dinner for us at the Neuhoff District. He explained every dish and the presentation of each was excellent. The ceviche was exceptionally fresh and we were introduced to hamachi collars which were to die for. The bartender, Jeremy, made us a fabulous cocktail and the servers were so kind and delightful. If you are ever near the Neuhoff District you MUST visit Fishmonger. Fabulous!

We had smoked fish dip, steamed mussels, chowder, shrimp cocktail and chef set oysters. Highly recommended everything except the chowder. It had an interesting flavor like a cinnamon or nutmeg? The cocktail sauce was the best we’ve ever had. We ended up ordering two rounds of it! The venue is very small just a bar and four 4-top tables, so peak meal time it might be a decent wait. All the food came out quickly and was outstanding. Also, they confirmed their fish is shipped in everyday.

Chowder was fairly priced and good. A lot of meat so that was a good surprise. Most surprising highlight is the Caesar salad was FIRE! Definitely try it as a side. Oysters were classic. The lobster roll was good. Not the biggest and maybe a little expensive and the wine was a little expensive with limited options. BUT! Still a cool place on the inside, good service, great vibes. 10/10 recommend.

10 out of 10, would recommend! Skip’s customer service was top-tier! We had the Seafood Udon, which I have to say is one of the best Ramen dishes in Nashville (It’s only available on Mondays). We also had lobster rolls with a side of broccolini and potatoes. The drinks were amazing as well. We had a passionfruit spritzer and the painkiller, which was . I will definitely be coming back!
