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.

    Food was excellent, as was service. Noise wasn’t bad, ambiance was good. Overall, we had a wonderful experience. We had the Alaskan Halibut and Hawaiian Mahi Mahi, and both were amazing! I’m not typically a big fan of eating anything that lived underwater, but both plates were extremely tasty!

    Great time overall. The food was delicious and the service outstanding. Highly recommend the lobster bisque and the fried calamari was the best I’ve ever had. The restaurant does get a bit noisy if you want to have a quiet conversation however.

    Thank you John! I'm glad you enjoyed. I hear you on that calamari, I have to stop myself from eating to much! Come back and see us soon1 Cheers, Chris Gundelfinger - General Manager

    Jax is the perfect place for a celebration, date night, or a “just because” dinner. The service never disappoints and the best food always comes from your server’s recommendation. If you’re craving seafood in our land-locked city, look no further!
