Jax Fish House & Oyster Bar

Our experience here was phenomenal from the moment we walked in until the moment we left. Staff was friendly, knowledgeable, & extremely helpful upon ordering or making substitutions. We felt the environment was relaxing & even a bit romantic. Prices were reasonable especially with the economy the way it is and everything being ordered in. We highly recommend this restaurant and will certainly be back if we have the opportunity during another visit to Colorado Springs.

After a ten year hiatus while living out of the area, we returned to find that Jax is as incredible as we remembered. Every dish from the apps to the entrees were perfection! The calamari was lightly breaded and very tender. The oysters were fresh, perfectly shucked, and the mignonette was as good as it gets. The gumbo is better than most I’ve had in Louisiana, and I travel there a lot for work, nice dark deep roux and rich flavor! The yellowfin tuna was beyond words, my wife never orders tuna anywhere, sushi or otherwise, but this dish was on another level. The halibut dish was equally as good, I love halibut having lived in Alaska and catching my own, Jax is way better than my own fresh caught, the beluga lentils very tasty. Overall, perfect, I hate to keep using that word, but it was perfection. And Kayla’s service was above and beyond while being very friendly and personable.

Some of the best oysters I've had in the area, with a selection of at least half a dozen varieties, of both east and west coast. The Spanish charred octopus was sublime as well, and a wonderful mixologist is on staff.
