Got food poisoning from their Thanksgiving meal. Was my first time going there, and will be the last.
The pasta was bland. The chicken was boiled not grilled. Poor service.
Dropped by with friends while on vacation and loved it. Great food , attentive server and fun atmosphere. The seafood basket was outstanding! The fried shrimp excellent. My wife and her mother were going to split an entree and the server had the kitchen do it and presented two plates with the food already split! A very thoughtful gesture. The fried green tomatoes had a delightful flavor with just the right amount of spiciness. Definitely will return when back in thr area.

As a local, I’ve never been here. My husband brought me and said let’s give it a try. I’m so happy we chose this place tonight. It is absolutely delicious. Our server. Nick was amazing. I had the stuff. Flounder! It was so good. Presentation was beautiful. My husband had deep fried chicken plate and the macaroni and cheese and greens was so delicious. Literally five stars!!!!
My wife and I love this place! Great oysters, and wonderful fresh seafood! Sometimes we get a sushi fix, and sometimes just great gulf seafood!

Was great.
We went to The Fish House mid-day for an early dinner. We had a party of six with my two elderly grandparents. They had ramps outside the restaurant, so it made it easier for them to get in.
The atmosphere inside the restaurant was cozy and inviting. The food was great! We got an assortment of different foods including the famous Grits À Ya Ya. Everything was delicious! Definitely recommend this restaurant if you are in the Pensacola area!

Cool vibes and location. Our server Rachel did not own a smile the entire time which was the only buzz kill unfortunately.

The ambiance was good and so was the food. We at first were seated outside and it had an odor (my guess was that the water had collected under the patches of grass and it caused a slight odor), but when we asked to be moved to the inside, the staff was very hospitable and understanding. As to our meals, I had the vegetarian option, curried sweet potato, carrots and chick peas with bismati rice. It had a good flavor though it was lacking salt. The two friends I was with both thoroughly enjoyed their meals, a hamburger with fries and shrimp and grits. All in all a good experience.

I’ve been coming to the Fish House for many years and have always enjoyed dining there or even just getting some drinks and sitting out on the back patio.
The service is always good and the menu is imaginative and chef inspired. Sushi Rolls, fresh seafood, and lots of other options. I’ve been a big fan of the ya ya shrimp. A delicious treat of smoked Gouda grits and fresh gulf shrimp, fantastic!
The location is right on the water and downtown adjacent to the port. If you’re looking for fresh give em a try you won’t be dissatisfied. I’ll definitely be back.

Great food, great service, awesome prices, nice ambience, and clean establishment.
We visited this restaurant on vacation, and our waiter, Dylan, took great care of us. He was friendly, welcoming, accommodating, and very knowledgeable of the menu. The restaurant was quite crowded when we arrived, but he made us feel welcome and checked in often to ensure we enjoyed our experience.
I highly recommend the Pecan-Crusted Catfish Meunière. The first order was in-house and we fell in love with it. It was different yet absolutely mouthwatering - the pecan crust and sauce took the dish to another level for my taste buds. I ordered another plate to go for dinner, and if I must be honest - the reheated dish was even more heavenly, and I had a greater appreciation for the smoked gouda cheese grits that surprisingly presented a nice flavor that I didn't notice prior.
Next up on my list of recommendations is the Key Lime Pie - apparently, it's a Florida thing - but I must say, you bleeeesssssssed me with this recipe - it was a smooth and delicious party in my mouth. We tried a few others in Pensacola, but this was definitely our favorite. Great job team!.
We also ordered a cup of gumbo - which was a bit too salty for me so I didn't finish the dish. I order crab cakes whenever and wherever I can - the Creole Crab Cake was different in that it had a strong pecan flavor - I'm still not sure how I felt about it other than it was interesting, but I finished the portion lol. The Fish and Chips was specially prepared for my mother to accommodate her health concerns, and even though the recipe may have been slightly adjusted, she was still able to enjoy the dish.
