We never have a bad experience at 801. The food and service are top notch.
This use to be our favorite restaurant. The last 2 visits in the last 2 years, the food was lack luster. Getting rid of the grilled Cesar was just a bad idea. Food is more simple and less flavorful. Prices still high though!
801 Fish Review – A Memorable 16th Anniversary Celebration My wife and I dined at 801 Fish to celebrate our 16th anniversary, and it was an absolutely amazing experience from start to finish. As someone who isn't a huge seafood fan, I was a bit skeptical, but my wife, a seafood enthusiast, was thrilled to try this place. The restaurant exceeded our expectations in every way. I opted for the prime filet mignon, and it was cooked to perfection—juicy, tender, and bursting with flavor. The dish was elevated with a topping of king crab and asparagus, which added a delightful richness. The accompanying potatoes and green beans were also perfectly cooked, rounding out an exceptional plate. My wife chose the sea bass, which she raved about. It arrived piping hot, so tender it was practically falling apart, and she couldn't stop talking about how much she loved it. We started with a shared Caesar salad, which was fresh, crisp, and delicious. My wife also had the oysters as an appetizer, and they were a highlight. The oysters were beautifully presented and came with a variety of sauces that allowed her to customize each bite, which she thoroughly enjoyed. For drinks, she sipped on a couple of glasses of wine, while I had a few Yuenglings—both paired nicely with our meal. The service was impeccable. Our waiter was professional, courteous, and attentive without being overbearing. The manager even stopped by to check on us, which added a personal touch to the evening. We were seated by a window with a lovely view, which made the ambiance even more special. The valet service was seamless, getting us in and out without any hassle. Overall, 801 Fish delivered an unforgettable dining experience. From the outstanding food and presentation to the top-notch service and atmosphere, everything was perfect. We can't wait to return for another special occasion—or maybe just because! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fantastic seafood (or steak) experience.
From start to finish it was such a great experience. Everyone we came in contact with was super friendly and helpful. Recommend the swordfish and any/all the oysters and shrimp. 10 out of 10.
food was not good. menu was different than what was posted on website valet parking was terrible-they lost our car and we stood in rain for 15-20 minutes
As usual, a delicious dinner at 801 FISH! This is my favorite restaurant. Not just for special occasions, but great Happy Hour (and Happy Hour every night until 6pm, including Fridays!), and also a great Sunday night Supper special with 3 courses for $50.
Terrible service Worse food Extremely disappointing experience. Will not return, nor recommend.
Because nothing says “I crushed 18 holes” like crushing an entire seafood restaurant afterward. It’s #stlouispescatarianapproved, which obviously means: one of everything, please and thank you.
Oysters were Slurped. Crab cakes were gone in sixty seconds. Lobster Mac was attacked. And the sea bass didn’t stand a chance either. Oh, and I got fries for dessert.
These girls came to eat, not to putt. If you’re not leaving 801 Fish full, happy, and slightly smug about your taste in food, you’re doing it wrong.
Shenanigans on.
Kyle was awesome and the food is great but OMG on the prices ...all we had was a salad, soup, tartare, crab cake and a drink and it was over $120.00. But we will be back
I went in and my initial experience was not great. Management followed up and made it right, and my follow on visit was amazing, both service and food.

Of all the places to take my wife for her 50th birthday we decided to go here...and it did not disappoint. The server and the entire staff were knowledgeable, professional, and very friendly. The food was outstanding and we tried a little bit of everything from all menu sections. For a fine dining experience I was expecting smaller portions. However, their portions were large and the quality verse value was incredible. As a nice touch, they even printed my wife her own menu. I can't recommend this place enough.
The food was ok. I felt nauseous after. Disappointing.
Food was good but, not great. I would expect more flavor especially given the price.
We visit 801 Fish quite often, and they never disappoint. Staff friendly quick to help suggest new things, etc. This most recent visit, the chef customized my pasta. We decided to substitute crab in place of the clams. Don't think I'll ever eat it any different than that from here on out.
Always a great experience! Happy hour is a great way to have an early dinner with friends and good wine.
