Went back to Fin after not having been there in a while. I’m happy to see it’s still as good as always. The oysters (1/2 price on Tuesday) were fresh and the freshly grated horseradish and the frozen mignionette were perfect accompaniments. The spicy cannoli tuna appetizers were outstanding. Entrees of wood-fire grilled orange roughy over escarole/beans and grilled jumbo shrimp over pineapple-mango rice did not disappoint! Our server , Melina, was extremely attentive and professional. Love that it’s BYO.Parking: Parking deck directly behind restaurant. Free after 6:00 pm and on Sundays. Nominal fee otherwise

The meal was good, the service was just ok and the price was outrageously expensive for what we got. Additionally, 10 dollars for sparkling water is just unnecessary. Meal for four was almost 400 dollars with tip ( with a dozen oysters) and this is a byob. Way too expensive.

This is a solid spot. It's well run with fantastic service. Everything is very tasty with a nice presentation. I'm still scratching my head on why some restaurants are charging 3% if you use a card. The CC is nothing new?! Imagine if all retailers decided to tack on a surcharge. During Covid it was a way to support struggling restaurants. That's no longer the case. Sadly, we won't be back
I've always loved Fin but I have to say this time the food was not great. I had the Shanghai jumbo shrimp and the shrimp were not jumbo at all. They used tinge much larger. I received a skimpy amount of greens and the plate was basically half full of potato sticks and doused in sauce. It was not at all like this in the past. The shrimp used to be huge and they gave way more spinach. In addition the soy sauce in the tuna tartare was extremely salty.

This was our first time dining at Fin Raw Bar and it was terrific! Food was delicious and service was very attentive; would definitely go back! Loved the spicy tuna cannolis and the lobster sliders

Food great. Tables are on top of each other. Staff is more concerned with flipping the table than my satisfaction. Constantly trying to clear table to the point of annoyance. Appetizer was barely off the table when entree was brought out. Good food can't overcome everything. Annoying experience

Our appetizer of mussels in white wine was good but a bit bland. Should have gone with the other options. My seafood pasta dish was very good (plenty of seafood) and a bit of heat. The other entree of Orange Ruffy with crabmeat was very good as well. A slice of Key Lime pie was one of the better I have had.

Amazing food and service! Great ambiance as well. Was perfect for a couple's night out.

Love going there because the fish is good and the overall ambiance fun - but need to remind myself to go in off hours when you can hear the other people that you are dining with!! It's just too loud! The food is very good, but a bit overpriced.

Great swordfish and the woodfire salmon is one of the best pieces of fish I've ever had...tiramisu and keylime pie also very good...Brian the owner is also the man! Definitely coming back.
Food was fantastic. 7 spice Tuna - melted in your mouth. Mussel pot is a must have - love all the ingredients - works very well together. All and all - a must have for seafood lovers.

Food is always delicious and service professional, knowledgeable, attentive, efficient and kind. My entree: scallops with risotto and spinach- I could have licked the plate (if I had no manners!!) BYOB makes a fantastic dinner out affordable. My favorite restaurant in the area!

Food was excellent but the service is like a dinner. Service trying to clear the table before done eating. They want you to eat and get out to get the next table. All about turnover here.
This was my second time dining at Fin and it is my go to restaurant for the warm welcome by Brian who went out of his way to see that we were seated at the table we requested.The food was fresh and nicely presented and the hot items were brought to the table at the correct temperature.Our waitress was attentive to our needs. The Bang Bang cauliflower appetizer is excellent, as was the shrimp and lobster Mac and Cheese. Definitely recommend the Brussels Sprout salad as well. Overall a delightful dining experience. My only comment about the dining experience is if you are there on a weekend night it tends to be noisy, I would recommend asking to be seated against a wall or in the back by the bar.
