Nice spot just off the square. The Muscles and a glass of wine are always our favorite. Really relaxed atmosphere with great service.

Very casual dining at a bit of an upscale price.Food- Pretty fantastic, except some of my rice was hard/uncooked. Our meals were served in melamine pasta bowls. The calamari was the biggest I've ever seen in my life and it was great!Atmosphere- Much more casual than I expected. Not really a place for a romantic type date. No music playing and it was kinda loud in there, like you could literally hear everyone else's conversations.Service- Our waitress was nice, very attentive, but in general the servers were way more casually dressed than I expected. There's no uniform, I guess they're just supposed to wear mostly black. I hate to say it, but some of them just looked plain sloppy. :-/Drinks- We only tried one. We thought we'd just share one of their signature drinks, but it was pretty much straight bourbon and neither of us could drink it. The description said it had nutmeg molasses and dirty cherries, but there were definitely no cherries and not a bit of a flavor of nutmeg or molasses. There was a 'singed orange peel' but it looked like all the zest was removed and it was just the white part with a burn spot.The food was delicious and is the only redeeming quality of this restaurant. If you're looking for a place with the whole package -- great food, atmosphere, service, and drinks-- this probably wouldn't be my first suggestion.

Yellowfin is a great place to grab some surf ‘n’ turf. The staff were very kind and polite. The food was very well prepared. The Bruschetta Dip, NY Strip, and Shrimp Scampi were all bangers! This place would be suitable for a night out with friends, the family, a date, or to impress your in-laws without breaking the bank. Thank you, Yellowfin!

From the time we walked in and we’re greeted by the most friendly gal up front we knew this was going to be a wonderful experience. We were then waited on by our waitress who made several suggestions from our drinks to our dinner and all came out perfect! The meals were outstanding had the orange roughy and salmon for spouse ! The shrimp bisque best I’ve ever had ! The deserts cream brûlée and the beignets were over the top with a Carmel sauce! I would highly recommend this place !

Was very disappointed ? great atmosphere but the food was terrible this time. Potatoes were undercooked, the steak was cold, and my mother in laws fries were soggy and cold.
Great service from Alex, with excellent wine recommendation. Food was extremely salty. Will definitely try again with my next trip.

Yummy! I got the lemon pepper grilled roughy with potatoes and green beans. So the green beans were awesome. Potatoes a little over seasoned but hey at least they season their food! The lemon pepper groupy could have used more seasoning couldnt taste any lemon pepper..... but was still good! I got the berry good old fashioned mostly tasted of alcohol #strong which aint a bad thing but as far as flavor..... eh kinda missed mark figured would at least be a little sweet but wasnt at all. My man got the fried shrimp and fries. He said hush puppies were okay nothing special..... still kept the 5 stars tho cause it was really good. We will for sure be back to try more things.
