    Red snapper throats and kimchi brussels sprouts
    Sam M.

    My wife and I really enjoyed our dinner. As we often do in a new place, we had a couple of appetizers and a couple of entrées with the full intention of carrying food home. We had to try the snapper throats and the kimchi Brussels. Both were excellent. She opted for the red snapper with artichoke hearts, and I had the chorizo and shrimp rigatoni. We could've fed both of us on either entrée but brought food home instead. The menu is quite large, so I see this becoming a common date night destination. I wouldn't normally include this in a restaurant review, but the restrooms are remarkably small given the size of the venue. Given the popularity, I recommend reservations. We made them and were seated upon arrival.

    phenomenal! delicious trout, a beautiful, intimate dining room and a very attentive waitress. 10s across the board

    The Yellowedge Grouper
    Theresa L.

    Pizza was okay, I did like the hot honey topping on top of the Pizza. My husband loved his Yellowedge Grouper and the rice pilaf and vegetable medley that came with it. Service was great. It is one big open place with plenty of space for large groups and plenty of bar seating.

    One of my favorite restaurants. Always fresh and presented well. Not a chain with great specials.

    Red snapper throat appetizer
    Dee G.

    This place is AMAZING!! We can't wait to visit again soon! Pricing is also reasonable especially with quality of food/service!! We ordered snapper throat for appetizer and smoked tuna dip both were so good!! I didn't get pics of dinner plates but I did get one of an appetizer. The ambiance reminds me of New Orleans style and it's beautiful! I can't say enough about this place! I definitely recommend this place!!!

    Grilled Redfish

    Another night another venture out to dinner with my coworker. This time the quest was for fish so off to Chuck's Fish! We fought the traffic amazing how traveling just 4.5 miles from your hotel takes well over 25 minutes. Huntsville has definitely exploded. We loved the decor and high ceilings very cool. As someone else mentioned in a review very cool to see the bar, sushi area and the cooking taking place in plain sight. We got there at 6:00 and by the time we left the place was crowded. Our server was great. She knew the menu and gave us great advice. My coworker ordered a rosemary old fashioned and I went with a local amber beer. For dinner, I opted for the grilled redfish over rice pilaf which comes with a creamy peppercorn sauce. My coworker went for the red snapper with artichoke hearts. We enjoyed the dishes. My fish was seasoned nicely and the rich cream sauce made me feel guilty but boy was it good. I thought both our portions were sizable. I was surprised that the redfish was $38... but like we all know everything has gone up! We both were stuffed and had no room for dessert. But we will be back next trip to try something else!

    Another win for Madison--with a few disclaimers. I first attempted to visit Chuck's Fish a couple of weeks ago with my daughter, but we were turned away due to their internal practice of hosting a "friends and family night." Since our names weren't on the list, we had to make other plans and ended up at Stoney Grill, where we had a five-star experience. Fast forward to tonight--my daughter wanted seafood, and despite my initial hesitation (I didn't want seafood tonight), we decided to give Chuck's another shot. I'm glad we did. The restaurant has a cozy and unique atmosphere. The lighting is somewhat dim, and the walls are a bit cluttered with abstract art, giving it some distinct character. One of the highlights is the story of Chuck and his connection to some of our state's most pivotal civil rights moments--you can read about it on the menu when you visit. Chuck is or was a good man, even if we was an attorney. Now, on to the food. My daughter, who is notoriously picky, loved the Seafood Gumbo--so much so that she had two servings. Then she moved on to sushi. Then grouper. Every dish got top marks from her. As for me, I opted for pizza, which turned out to be phenomenal. Just a note: the "hot" in the Hot Homey Pizza description refers to heated honey, not spiciness--a great touch. Service started off slow after we were seated, testing my patience a bit. But once our server arrived, she was attentive and on top of things, making up for the wait. Normally, I like to give a place a few visits before reviewing, but this was an easy five stars in spite of the wait. Just keep in mind--Chuck's Fish isn't the place to come if you're in a hurry, and it's probably not ideal if you're watching your budget the day before payday. But if you're looking for great seafood in Madison, this spot is definitely worth a visit. I expect the service will only get better from here.

    Menu

    Loved the atmosphere and loved the food. I spend a lot of time in Florida and the Grouper Piccata was amazing. Wonderful flavor, but I vote for the rice. The potatoes are great, but rice is a better pairing. We sat outside for a family birthday. Wonderful menu and attentive helpful service. I highly recommend it. My one complaint is the 2-3% Cliff Farm development fee, but that isn't their fault. Why exactly are we paying this? Definitely give them a try. You won't regret it.

    Sushi
    Preston P.

    Whoever the Sushi Chef is here is clearly the best in this area. Not only was the taste off the charts, but the presentation looked like a piece of art. The service was outstanding and the ambiance was top notch.

    This spot is a local staple for me whenever I'm in town. The fish is fresh from the Gulf, and the service always feels top-notch. The vibe is relaxed but slightly elevated--definitely one of the best seafood spots in Huntsville. The red snapper throat is consistently a standout: crispy, tender, and just plain special. Our party also had the Parmesan-crusted grouper, cooked perfectly. We also tried the triple fin with lemon and butter, and I couldn't resist the crab-stuffed shrimp--so good. The service really makes the experience, and it's consistently worth every visit.

    Drinks menu
    Bailey C.

    4.5/5 stars. Would highly recommend getting reservations, even though the space is large it gets busy especially on weekends. Upscale, seafood restaurant, with fresh options and weekly specials. Diverse menu with anything from fish entrees - sushi - pizzas and steak. Appetizers: $24 for poke nachos, can get them for less else where, however they were a fairly large portion with fresh tuna. Just not worth the $24 to me. Entrees: stuffed grouper special, served with jalapeño cheddar grits and asparagus. Very delicious buttery and served with a grilled lemon! Husband ordered the artichoke red snapper with risotto. I must say the risotto was better than the grits! Just ooey gooey perfection. Once again buttery flaky fish with the perfect sides. Topped with sautéed artichoke hearts. They have secret menu items, mainly sushi, (be sure to ask about them, because our waitress didn't inform everyone)! Upscale restaurant, fresh seafood, lovely decor and ambiance. A little crowded but a lot of dining space to choose from. Overall, lovely seafood addition to Huntsville that we so desperately needed. Can't wait to come back and try other menu items because there's a lot to choose from

    Everything about this place was A+++. The food was terrific and the service was great. We are already eager for our next dinner here.

    Grouper Piccata
    Cheryl S.

    My friends and I arrived Sunday around 5:30 pm, party of 3, no wait. The atmosphere upscale, with an eclectic classy type of vibe. Our waiter Dillon was very good. I had the Grouper Piccata, my friends ordered Sushi. They were both excellent. .

    I've always passed by Cap't Loui so I finally decided to check them out. We went on a weekday and…read moreit was pretty packed. I did notice it is a smaller sized restaurant and even though they have outside seating, it was too cold this particular evening. However, we were eventually greeted and seated. Since this was our first time here, we asked our waitress for suggestions and she told us they are known for their seafood boils. They do have other dishes, but based on the menu, we decided to go with her suggestion and order a seafood boil which came with corn, potatoes, shrimp with the head off, and 2 clusters of crab legs. Our boil also came with a choice of rice or garlic noodles so we ordered the noodles. We also added an order of sausage to the boil. I believe since they were very busy, it took a while for us to receive our food, but our waitress did a great job of checking in on us while we waited. Once we received our food, it was served hot but it seemed as though the food in the boil was slightly overcooked. The Cap't Loui Canjun seasoning was good but it didn't seep well into the crab legs but it did for the other food items. But of course we had enough sauce in the boil so we used it like a dipping sauce. The garlic noodles were actually delicious. Warning, they are very garlicky as well as the seafood boil. The restaurant appeared to be clean and it was also bright and inviting with the nice music playing overhead. It almost seemed like a big party in there with great vibes. All in all, decent visit today. Even though our food was slightly overcooked, we would revisit in the future.

    Service was atrocious. Went once and vowed never to return. There are so many better places…read more At these prices, you can't afford to screw up so badly. We were basically ignored the entire time and there was no one else in the restaurant. Terrible.

    Early in the week, I made online reservations for Friday at 7pm. I got text confirmation of that…read morereservation. Something came up making Friday a bad choice, so I made another reservation for Saturday and cancelled the on for Friday. Once again I got a text message for both the Friday cancellation and Saturday booking. The automated replies made it convenient. We arrived a few minutes before or reservation and were seated right away. They were quick to respect my request for a nearby booth, as I have a disability walking. We ordered the steak appetizer roles that were outstanding! My wife ordered a Caesar salad that was huge, along with the filet with a baked potato. When I looked at the menu days prior, I was eyeing the shrimp and grits, but after seeing nearby tables entrees, I quickly ordered the ribeye. Our server, Jesstina was off the wall spectacular! Our appetizer came out quick, and our main course came out soon after we were done enjoying our appetizers. She made sure our every need was taken care of, and her attitude was as if we were her long time friends. We were there to celebrate our wedding anniversary of 23 years, and the dining experience was perfect! Spectacular service, an outstanding food selection and a 10 out of 10! This was our first time at this Stoney River, but it won't be the last! And you can rest assured, we'll make sure Jesstina will be our requested server!

    Stoney River delivers solid flavor and quality, and the ambiance makes the experience even better…read more The atmosphere is classy, dimly lit, and upscale without feeling overly formal. It is a great spot for a date night or a special evening out. We started with the crab cake. It was definitely good, flavorful, and nicely prepared, but at 18 dollars for a single crab cake, it felt a little steep. The standout of the night was the Wild Mushroom Meatloaf. It was hearty, well seasoned, and something I would absolutely reorder. We paired it with asparagus and Parmesan fries. The asparagus was fresh and succulently seasoned, cooked just right. The Parmesan fries were crispy and flavorful and made a great complement to the meal. I ordered the London Dip, which had good flavor overall, especially paired with the roasted wild mushrooms. That combination worked well together. However, for the price point, I think next time I might try something else on the menu. It was good, just not quite as memorable as the meatloaf. We also tried the smoked gouda mac and cheese, which was rich and tasty and definitely a solid side option. Overall, Stoney River offers good quality dishes with strong flavors in a classy setting that makes it perfect for date night. A few items feel priced on the higher side, but I would return, especially for that meatloaf.

    Will edit this after I eat, looking forward to trying it out. Friendly staff, and opened January…read more2025. You can call ahead and place an order. There is limited seating space, so plan to take it to go or have it delivered with either grub hub or door dash. Hush puppies are smaller than what I would expect, but you get 4 as a small. Medium is 8, and large is 16. Upgrade to at least an 8, because they will be gone too quickly and you will wish you had more. Flavor is good, a little on the salty side but that is a plus for people who love salt. Tartar sauce tastes freshly made, but has a hint of spicy sweet pickles (not dill, unless it is a mix of both). One odd mix is it comes with a slice of white loaf bread (not homemade nor is it toasted with butter, which is almost what I would expect with a fish plate). It was separated from the baked beans with parchment paper, so the bread did not get messy nor moist - but I would like to see this elevated to something else. The baked beans are basic baked beans. Not much flavor, so if you like blandish beans they are ok. I will skip the baked beans next time and try a different side item. The catfish is the main feature in this dish. It is fried with a seasoned batter, this is probably where the salt comes from in the hush puppies. The fish goes well with the tartar sauce, but I ran out of that with the first fillet (so get at least two tarter sauces). There are portions of the fish with more seasoned fried batter than fish. One plus side for those with kids is I did not run across any bones. I think next time I will try their bbq baked potato, double down on the jalapeño hush puppies and order before they cook too many catfish fillets. I think 4/5 is a fair rating. It is not "catfish cabin" from my childhood, but nothing ever is. It did satisfy a catfish craving, and for those who want catfish - it is at least is a decent option.

    Definitely a hidden gem!…read more My husband was out of town last week and so I decided I'd go somewhere I'd wanted to try that was out of the way to treat myself and help pass the time without him. I reviewed my bookmarks and settled on Barrio! This restaurant is located near the ever-popular Valentina's pizza -- I believe it shares a building with the first location of the pizza place before they moved a little up the road. Otherwise, it's sort of "out there" -- though I'd argue it's very much worth a special trip. The parking lot is a little small but it's also a fairly intimate restaurant so you won't be fighting insane crowds anyway. It felt clean and modern inside and the restaurant boasts a nice long bar. I was offered my choice of seat; I took a booth since they weren't super busy (it was a Tuesday evening). My server was Cameron. He was very sweet and worked hard at being attentive and helpful. My food came out promptly with each order and was prepared as I'd requested. No complaints there! The menu here is more authentic and more upscale than many Texmex options in the area. This makes me happy because I prefer Mexican cuisine served this way. I felt a little bad for the servers, though, as they had to field several questions from parties about matters of cheese dip, what mole is, etc. They cheerfully and patiently provided great education, but I hope in writing this I can save them some trouble in the future, lol. You should absolutely give Barrio a try, but Little Rosie's it is not (nor should it be)! Anyway, rant over...Cameron brought out some chips and both salsa rojo and verde. This was maybe the only thing I didn't particularly care for all night. Neither salsa had a ton of flavor or heat to my palate, and the chips were fried a little heavily/dark for me. I was concerned after this but I shouldn't have been because my entree and dessert were both delightful. I ordered the enchiladas suizas, which comes with rice and beans. The rice was fluffy and light. The beans were a beautiful dark black color and subtly smoky, nice and smooth but not too much so. And my enchiladas... Okay, a thing about me is that I always think I'll love enchiladas (who doesn't love a soft and creamy, cheesy, warm meal?) but EVERY TIME I order them they disappoint me. I've FINALLY found a place where they were all I'd hoped they'd be. The chicken inside was tender and succulent but not mushy; the tomatillo sauce was bright and flavorful; the cheese added the perfect amount of gooeyness...really, really good. Thoroughly redeemed, I also placed an order for churros. I requested they be packaged to go as I was sure I wouldn't eat them all in one sitting. Cameron obliged and brought out the dessert in two separate containers (one for churros, one for ice cream). I appreciated his thoughtfulness, though I wound up eating the ice cream and some churros there because I didn't want it to melt. The ice cream was delectable -- honestly, it tasted like homemade vanilla to me but whatever they use, it's awesome -- and the warm, cinnamon-covered and caramelly churros were the perfect companion. I ate three there and took three home for later. So good! This restaurant has many offerings I've rarely seen throughout Huntsville (read: especially chicken mole -- hard to find!). They seem to really care about the food and execute it on a high level. Please give them a try when you get a chance. I'll definitely return in the future.

    Barrio is easily the best restaurant in the area. We started with the calamari and queso fundido…read moreand both were absolutely incredible. The cocktails were amazing too. I had the mango habanero margarita and it was so delicious with just the right amount of heat. For the main course we had the tacos and enchiladas and I already want to go back to try more. Please get the shrimp tacos. They also serve complimentary chips and salsa which were fresh and full of flavor. Our waiter Eldwin was super friendly and attentive and the executive chef was just as welcoming. Everything about the experience was outstanding. Highly recommended.
