Fish Market restaurant is a great place to meet up with friends. We liked the cheesy garlic bread, white clam chowder, and fish tacos. I tried the pasta Angelica with scallops, I thought it had too much pesto and the scallops were very tiny. The wine was good. We enjoyed the coffee and vanilla ice cream after dinner. We were seated in a cozy spot in the dining section. We arrived before 7:00 pm on a Friday evening. Parking was difficult due to Friday evenings and other restaurants in the area. Staff was friendly and wait time was reasonable. The Fish Market is a little pricey but the food is good.

Absolutely amazing seafood place to eat at. It’s just an objectively better red lobster, except when red lobster has unlimited shrimp. Anyways, I would say the meals are priced well for the ingredients used in the meals. As for portion to price ratio, I would say it’s a little low. There is, however, complimentary sourdough bread with butter. We also had a crab cake appetizer. It was nice and also came with a small salad on the side.

The seafood main course was amazing though. I had the pasta with clams, forgot the exact name; there are also pictures of tacos and fried fish w/ fries. The food takes a little while to come out, but that just means you can talk a lot.

Also, if it’s your birthday, make sure you tell the waiters in secret. They might sing a different, and better song than the typical happy birthday song. There’s also a picture of what they give you for your birthday; a chocolate cake. I did not taste it though. I’m sure it tastes like chocolate cake.

The fish is so fresh, and l love ambiance here. I will definitely visit here next time for oyster happy hour. I ordered tiger shrimp & scallop skewered and Dean prawn with pasta, both of them were delicious!

I haven’t been here in years, but I thoroughly enjoyed my very fresh-tasting seafood meal. Any time I see black cod (a.k.a. sablefish) on the menu, I am inclined to get it, and there were no regrets here. It was cooked well to showcase the fish’s delicious texture and flavor. Service was decent. Only issue is parking; the lot gets crazy full so arrive early if you can.

Food was good overall but I have definitely had much better seafood than this. Great local place though. Also, loved the sweet potato fries.

I arrived at about 2pm on a Saturday, so it wasn’t too busy. The hostess was extremely friendly and service oriented. I ordered the spicy mango margarita, crispy fish tacos with beans, and Apple crisp for dessert. The bread, beans, and pie were just okay but the margarita and tacos were really good. The hostess even gave me a sample of the smoked salmon to try so I wouldn’t “miss out” bc I as debating the dish. Not only this, but my dessert was complimentary because she said I had to wait too long – it didn’t feel long to me but I didn’t complain about free dessert!

They serve ok seafood. Not the best fter tasting serveral good ones over the last few weeks. The staffs are too overwhelm to serve if you are seated at the back of the restaurant. Carpark is just right beside the restaurant. They have 2 bar counters. S the food is fresh but the taste is not as expected. There is a queue during peak hours.

The place has a fishy smell when you first get into the door. Our server brought us dirty bowls twice. The grilled skewer was ok but had funny rice with noodles in it. The scallops was over cooked on side and slimy on the other. The cioppino had a fishy lobster that was rubbery. The tomato broth has a strong wine taste that was not balanced. I do not recommend this place.

Went on a Tuesday & the restaurant was ~70% full – pretty busy for early in the week. Didn’t make a reservation & was seated within 5 mins.

Had oysters & the crab cioppino – both were fresh & really enjoyable! Service was also very friendly & fast enough. Menu is 90% seafood (the place *is* called the fish market), but in case you’re with someone who doesn’t like seafood, there are also a couple chicken & veg options.

Ambience is super chill, with a separate room with a bar.

Bill came out to $44 for the 2 dishes. Looking forward to trying their sashimi next time!

Fresh seafood, friendly staff, cute/casual ambiance. Food and service were both great! For appetizers the tuna poke was excellent and the saffron mussels & fries were delicious (soak the bread in the sauce!) The clam bake was good, nothing spectacular. Wide range of options on the menu for lots of variety.
