Service was slow. Server was nice, but food and drinks took quite a while to come out. Small details were missed— as an example, we asked for dessert to be boxed to go, but instead it came out ready to be consumed. Perhaps the server was overworked.

We went for Restaurant Week. Delicious Crab and Corn Chowder, Salmon Caesar Salad was delicious, Shrimp and Grits just needed a little salt, desserts were very tasty. Very good ambiance and service.

Great meal at Passion Fish. Special occasion - birthday. It was pretty quiet on a Sunday evening. Service was great. Food was awesome. We've been to Passion Fish three times for special occasions. Also went once on Restaurant Week a couple of years ago, which was a great deal and also a very vibrant for a weeknight. Every time we've dined at Passion Fish, it has been a great experience. Highly recommend.

Food was way over priced and in some cases just not accurate. We got shrimp even tho we ordered prawns. Food was either over or under cooked. Cocktails were great, server was very meh. Wouldn't come back

Lovely touches for a birthday! A special birthday printed menu, a complimentary birthday treat and lovely service!

It is unheard of for me to return from dinner and immediately write a review but I was so disappointed by tonight's experience that I'm doing just that. Have been to Passion Fish several times but, to be honest, not in a couple of years. It was so loud tonight that at times I had to plug my ears ... the volume was really uncomfortable. I ordered the Lobster/butternut squash bisque and it was excellent!! I also ordered a caesar salad with grilled shrimp and that was a joke. There was no caesar dressing that I could identify, no parmesan that I could identify and the "grilled" shrimp were cold, dried out and very small -- for $4 EACH. That salad cost me $35 and it was not even good. My friend ordered the halibut and she said it was excellent! It was a generous portion and looked delicious. I would have ordered that but I am allergic to halibut. Our waiter was nice and as attentive as he could be while servicing what appeared to us to be far too many tables. All in all, a very less than impressive experience for $100 (including wine)

It's always been one of my favorites. The restaurant is quite pretty. Most tables nicely spread apart for conversations. Service is always good. Waiters are fun and engaging. Sushi delicious. Fresh. Together, the whole experience is quality!

We've eaten here many times over the years. The last few times, the last in particular, were discouraging. My wife started with a Caesar salad with gem lettuce and way too much garlic. OK. Not outstanding at all. I had the ceviche. It was pretty good, frankly: The highlight of the evening. As a main, my wife had the baked oysters. They were really not very good. They tasted like local oysters that were cooked, and were kind of acidic. Ick. The server had the cost waived; appropriate. My main was a salad; OK but, again, hardly outstanding. All in all, mediocre over all, each with a gaspingly high price tag. It's evolved into being a slightly better than average, pricing above average resto, and that's it. Too bad.

Service was excellent. Ambience is a bit bizarre and not very refined. Sushi was amazing, calamari was excellent along with the warm donuts, cocktails and crab soup were okay. However, the Tandoori Spiced Salmon dish was absolutely awful & not even the rice was cooked properly and caused severe gastrointestinal issues afterwards.

The food was mid. Did not taste much value for money. The server was really fast at taking orders up to the extend missing people on the table while taking orders and then the food took too long to arrive. Overall we had outstanding expectations but it turned out to be a mid to average quality food and service with good ambiance.
Decent. Overpriced but a great experience. Stay away from the Mac and cheese. Morton's Mac and cheese is better.

This restaurant is a gem. Server was friendly and knowledgeable but the only reason I listed service lower than 5 stars was because he was handling an entire section alone. Not his fault but after initial contact, he didn't have time to check on us and ask us if needed anything more. Given the prices, it should be better staffed.

We had potstickers, bay scallops with risotto, and a side of eggplant--all quite excellent.

The food was good and the portion sizes weren't small, although they weren't big either. The staff are friendly. The restaurant is fancy with an upscale atmosphere and somewhere you'd go for a formal dinner. However there's an upstairs in the restaurant with only stairs to get there and the bathroom is pretty small. They do have a handicap stall but since there's only 2 and that's one people are always in it.
