    This was the first company gathering of the new year for Liberty Capital LLC, a well-established local company with over 22 years of history. Our boss chose this restaurant, which itself has a 25-year history, and it was a perfect choice. The seafood quality was excellent, the service was attentive, and the overall atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable. What made the night even more special for me was receiving my very first award of 2026 here—an unforgettable and happy moment. It was truly a meaningful and memorable event. Highly recommend this restaurant for celebrations, team gatherings, and special occasions.

    Food great. Service great. Value great. What was disappointing was I ordered an appetizer and a drink and ordered take out. I was charged for my take out container. Why? You didn’t have to pay someone to wash my dish or my napkin or serve me that food and you felt the need to charge me for a take out container? Very disappointing. I have never been charged for a take out container before.

    We asked for a bottle of wine, then got told it was out. Was going to order scallops but they were out. Ordered cod then got told it was also out. Broccoli and asparagus were out so market vegetables offered instead. After a half hour and our one appetizer didn't arrive questioned it's whereabouts, waitress forgot to order it, but it eventually came. Lastly a dessert option that was considered also not available. Be sure to like at least 2 maybe 3 things on the menu as the first and second could quite possibly not be there. Merry Christmas !!

    I noticed a long dark hair on my entree as the server handed to me...meal was "remade" but not comped. Another in our party also had a long dark hair strewn about their meal..also "remade"(noticed the cooks just wear ball caps when we were leaving.. may be time for a change there...) We also waited a half an hour for drinks, the appetizers weren't correct, we were not offered the complimentary bread that every other table had.. I later spoke with some of my friends in the service industry, and they were appalled..they asked were the meals comped..no...were you guys offered a drink or dessert...no...was the check discounted at all...no.. We were also automatically charged 18% gratuity due to the party being over 8..which had the experience been at all ok..sure.. But when you manage to flub up every aspect of said experience..why is that ok? Won't be back!

    By far the worst restaurant I’ve ate at. Calling it Fish Market is bold when the only thing fresh was the disappointment. We came here for a celebratory dinner and left feeling sick and disgusted. Our drinks did not come out until 30 minutes after we ordered them, and came out with the appetizers. Every table was served complementary bread that we were not given. We ordered crab spinach and artichoke dip, and there was not one ounce of crab in it. After we got our entrees, we had not one but two different plates with long dark hairs in them. Although the food was remade, it was not taken off the check and no complimentary dessert or drink was offered either. Fish Market? Yeah, it tasted like the market forgot the fish… and the health inspector.
