About

Seafood Restaurant
We don’t take ourselves too seriously at Jax Fish House. Two things we do take seriously? The freshness and sustainability of our seafood. You know fresh fish when you see, smell, and taste it—and thanks to modern delivery technology, we bring in that freshy-fresh seven days a week. Sustainability is a little more complicated. Not all commercial fisheries are created equal. That’s why we work closely with our suppliers and science-based organizations to ensure that every single thing we serve is responsibly sourced. We consider the stocks of the species we source to prevent overfishing and we work with suppliers who harvest in ways that have minimal impacts on marine environments. Join us for weekday lunch, weekend brunch, and happy hour and dinner daily!

    Megan was our server and bartender. She was absolutely amazing. My fiancé and I came in for our weekly date night. It was both of ours first time here. We had the oysters and King crab legs & the shrimp. I started off with a glass of Albariño (it was so refreshing to see this on the menu) and switched over to a martini when I realized how much food we had ordered. Megan made the best slightly dirty martini!! She even made me goat cheese filled olives. Really. Over the top! We enjoyed ourselves so much. I am from the wine Santa Barbara and this was the first experience that checked all of my boxes. Wine list✔️Seafood quality ✔️ a bartender who knows how to make a perfect, slightly dirty martini ☑️ a bartender that knew what she was talking about AND a great personality ✅. We will be back and are now big fans of this place and big fans of Megan. Truly the best bartender in Colorado Springs. I’m a sommelier from the wine country so I am usually hard to please. We had a great time. Thank you!! Sonja & Matt.

    A Seafood Dream Come True in Colorado Springs! We had a truly exceptional dining experience tonight at JAX Fish House in Colorado Springs. From the moment we sat down, we knew we were in for a treat, and our server, Sarah, ensured the entire evening was flawless with her excellent customer service and engaging interactions. To start the evening, we enjoyed a wonderfully tasty and refreshing cocktail made with cucumber-infused vodka and lemon juice—the perfect palate opener. The food was the star of the show. We started with an impressive spread of appetizers and raw bar selections, including the fantastic Deviled Eggs with Lobster that were rich and indulgent. The Calamari was perfect—so tender and incredibly tasty, definitely a must-try. We followed that with a dozen raw oysters that were incredibly fresh and flavorful, alongside a generous portion of delicious baked oysters. The 1/2 lb of Peel n Eat shrimp seasoned with Cajun spice was oh-so-yummy and highly addictive. For our main courses, we enjoyed both the rich Carrot Risotto with Seared Scallops and the classic Fish n Chips. Every dish was executed beautifully and proved just how dedicated JAX is to quality seafood. Everything, without exception, was very tasty. If you are looking for the freshest, most flavorful seafood in Colorado Springs, paired with genuinely excellent service and creative drinks, look no further than JAX Fish House. Request Sarah—you won't be disappointed!

    My wife and I came in to celebrate our 18th wedding anniversary and from the moment we were greeted till we left it was a great experience. We enjoyed our food and especially our service. Our server was Kerry and he was phenomenal on recommendations on what to try. The raw deluxe oysters and the lobster deviled eggs ( see pic) were super delicious. 😁

    What a fantastic dining experience. Oysters, lobster deviled eggs, gumbo, catfish, scallops, cocktails, wine, dessert, including a complimentary birthday toast with our server and complimentary birthday dessert. I celebrate my birthday here every year for a good reason. Top notch in every way. Kerry is an attentive, professional, and friendly server.

    I had an amazing experience during my visit! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming, clean, and inviting. The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out in perfect timing — everything exceeded my expectations. But what truly made my visit a 10/10 was the customer service. Aimee and Laura were exceptional. They were warm, attentive, and professional the entire time. They checked in without being overbearing, made sure I had everything I needed, and carried such positive energy that it genuinely elevated the whole experience. Their teamwork, patience, and friendliness made me feel valued as a customer. I will absolutely be returning. Big shoutout to Aimee and Laura for making it such a memorable visit… they are truly an asset to the restaurant!
