The smoked salmon is particularly praised for its exceptional quality. The restaurant boasts a chill atmosphere with a cozy and welcoming ambiance, making it an ideal spot for a date night. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, providing excellent service. Customers have also highly rated the takeaway food. While the restaurant offers a decent wine list and great drinks, the limited vegetable options and single dessert choice may be a downside for some. Overall, The Fish Friar stands out for its fresh and high-quality seafood, creating an impressive dining experience.
The restaurant's chic industrial vibe, with both indoor and outdoor seating, is praised by customers. Its convenient location near Hannover Square, a popular spot in Syracuse, adds to its appeal. Customers have commented on the great food and drinks, with the fish being consistently hot and fresh. The restaurant's long-standing presence in the area, with various establishments occupying the same space over the years, has also earned it a loyal following.
However, some customers have noted that the restaurant can be slow in seating and serving, advising diners to allow ample time for their visit. Despite this, the overall consensus is that The Fish Friar is a must-visit destination for those seeking a delightful seafood experience in a welcoming atmosphere.
