F.I.S.H. RESTAURANT + BAR REVIEWS

This is a very good restaurant. For the appetizer, we ordered the Fried Montauk Calamari, which was excellent. For the entrées, we chose the Naked Fish option: grilled salmon with a side of mashed potatoes, Baja fish tacos, and Black Squid Ink Linguini. All were delicious. However, for the Naked Fish, it would be better to include two sides. The portion of mashed potatoes was huge, and I recommend allowing the option to choose two smaller sides instead, so people can order both a carb and a veggie with their fish, for example. The atmosphere is very nice, and the outdoor seating is lovely. I highly recommend it.

Nice ambiance. Friendly, professional staff. Fresh, delicious food. Great spot for date night.

Food was great and tasty, loved the blackened branzino.

ELM STREET OYSTER HOUSE REVIEWS

Very beautiful place, very good chawder soup. The attention of the waiters is very good, there is also a very friendly young man. Smiling and sincerely pleasant. I recommend it. The place is to have a great time. I loved everything, so thanks to the entire team that makes customer service possible...

One of the best New England clam chowders I've ever had! The mussels appetizer was pretty good and the fries were perfectly crispy. Cozy place with a very old school oyster house feel. Looking forward to going back to try now menu items.

A very great place to get seafood and drinks. The service was awesome and it was one of our most comfortable meals.
