We don't take ourselves too seriously at Jax Fish House. Two things we do take seriously? The freshness and sustainability of our seafood. You know fresh fish when you see, smell, and taste it-and thanks to modern delivery technology, we bring in that freshy-fresh seven days a week. Sustainability is a little more complicated. Not all commercial fisheries are created equal. That's why we work closely with our suppliers and science-based organizations to ensure that every single thing we serve is responsibly sourced. We consider the stocks of the species we source to prevent overfishing and we work with suppliers who harvest in ways that have minimal impacts on marine environments.

The perfect place for second+ dates due to overall dining noise level. HOWEVER, both my companion and I have hearing impairments. ***Staff accommodated us by seating us in a booth, and our servers were intentional about enunciating, slowing the pace and always facing us directly. *** The noise level was noticeable- but our dining experience was EXCELLENT because Jax staff made it happen! We deeply appreciate you ALL, Jax Friends, Kitchen and Front! (Special mention to our server Phil- you ROCK!) See you again soon.

We've always enjoyed it especially the happy hour. We went last night to celebrate my birthday. We were seated at a high top type table where Happy Birthday was written on the table topper. However, the table area had no light. As senior citizens our eyes aren't as great as the use to be. I could not read the menu. I asked to be seated somewhere else. With a smile the hostess to us to a well lit table where we had a wonderful meal. It was the best meal I have ever had there. Oysters, raggon dip, apple salad (shared and split for us) seared yellow tail and to end the cheesecake. I was disappointed though, there wasn't any mention of my birthday nor a candle on the cake. Regardless, we had a great time.

We had to call the host over to get it straightened out. Once that was settled our server was very pleasant and attentive. Our cocktails were very good. The soups (lobster bisque and gumbo) were also excellent. I had the Alaskan haddock which was prepared well, but I thought the sherry in the sauce too sweet for fish. My husband enjoyed the blackened catfish. We have dined often at Jax, but the service this time was a disappointment. We’ll be back nonetheless.

I'm sorry to hear we dropped the ball with the first part of your visit. You know as well as we do that is not our standard. I've made sure to bring your review to the team, as we cannot learn grow and ultimately improve when left in the dark.
