Tried Mrs. fish for the first time for anniversary reservations and I loved it. The ambience is gorgeous and the art on the wall gives the best finishing touches to the interior decor. The food was 10/10 everything was very flavorful. Every single worker went above and beyond to make sure our visit was enjoyable, I definitely have to give them credit. We came during happy hour so everything was at a really good price, quality of the food was an amazing and the service makes me likely to come back! Definitely recommend

Mandi and the team for afternoon tea were very attentive. They made sure we had an overflowing glass and gave an extra thoughtful slice of cake to celebrate my birthday in the end. Plus every bite of food was perfect. Highly recommend!
