I came to Flying Fish for my birthday a few years ago and still think about it. The oysters were…read moreincredibly fresh, the fish tacos was excellent, and the biggest surprise for me was the sake flights! Order before seating yourself. Covered outdoor seating only, but they have a lot of patio heaters here so you are set during the colder months. Fairly quick service. The staff here is always so helpful and kind! I also love that they have a fish market attached, so you can take home fresh seafood after your meal too. Everything feels fresh, local, and thoughtfully sourced. Definitely worth stopping by if you're a seafood fan, even for their fish market to go.

The restaurant next door has some fancy menu items, but you may be dining at a picnic table in a tent. Service was mediocre. The food took a very long time, but it was Sunday dinner time. While everything was delicious, I was beyond disappointed with how TINY my fish pieces were in my 3pc fish & chips. I literally had jojos bigger, uhhh. good luck if you get fish and chips! Great jojos, slaw good. My partner loved the spring salad with steelhead. I had oysters here a long time ago (see pics)

I just love that this place exists! It's the perfect little spot for cocktails and desserts…read more It's gorgeous inside with a huge parrot mural and chandelier, but also a bit dark and moody at the same time. If you are coming on a weekend you probably want to try to grab a reservation, but both times I've popped up, I've had no trouble getting seated. The server was very friendly and had plenty of recommendations. They have both cocktails and NA drinks. The cocktails are fancy and not your average, though they lean toward mainly tequila and mezcal. They also have classic cocktails available if you aren't feeling adventurous. The desserts are really fun - full of different flavors and textures. We wanted to try everything, but settled on the Toxica and Para Mi Papa. The Toxica was basically guava passion fruit sorbet, but the smear of house made strawberry chamoy gave it a fun kick and the cornflake crunch was the texture it needed. We both really enjoyed it. My favorite was the Para Mi Papa, a delicious take on carrot cake. The orange cream cheese frosting had me questioning why all carrot cake doesn't come with orange cream cheese frosting. The miso spiced ice cream gave it a little salty note that just made the whole thing sing. I was sad to be sharing this one. Definitely a great spot to stop in with some friends or after dinner.

This is more of an after dinner, show, concert or a night out. This is the perfect nightcap with your light fair of food. The desserts are absolutely incredible.

Details: My friends and I split the steak tartare, smoked fish board and aarewasser cheese. All of these were great, but my favorite was the steak tartare (crazy considering this is a seafood place). We then split the clam chowder, king salmon, and grilled swordfish - all of these were amazing with the swordfish being the best of the three. The clam chowder was comforting, the kind salmon was so soft that you didn't even need to chew it, and the swordfish was just AMAZING. \We also have several mocktails and cocktails which were just as great. Thank you, Brianna, for your recommendations! Will definitely come back!

Had to add a lime's worth of juice and some tajinn to taste it but it was fresh. Overall, it's okay, gets the job done for a pasta craving but probably wouldn't splurge here again.

Classy place with friendly service and interior designer touches. Ideal for a date night or special…read moreoccasion. For two people we paid $150 with tip, and that was without desserts and coffee. Things of note from a Friday night summer visit to this place that's been there four years now: High-end presentation. The plating is top level and each thing they place in front of you is like a sculpture or work of art. Nice energy, not at all too loud. They have acoustic tiles on the ceiling and on the concrete floor added a runner that echos the curve of the large bar, which helps. Portion size looked nice and generous from examples of things we saw being brought to tables, such as the salad and focaccia. Best appetizers were fried cauliflower and the asparagus dish w/ the eggs (which would be even better if warm). The one fish entree is the sablefish (ours was underseasoned) that's brought out on thin piece of cedar with edges still slightly charred. It comes with nothing else on the plate so plan accordingly. Just inside the door they have a little snack/pantry curated market of sorts, where you can linger while waiting for seating and can buy things like a cute little bottle of honey for $20 or a colorful crocheted wall hanging basket for $70. Lots of good natural light because of the walls of floor to ceiling windows. Option of ample seating indoors and outdoors because it's a corner location. Cautionary note: We saw and heard a lunatic in hoodie who, at 6pm on a Friday night, walked up to one of the unoccupied outdoor tables and flipped it over, causing the plates and glasses to fly in the air and shattered, landing in shards next to the elderly couple at the next table who jumped up, her understandably in shock and tears. Staff did nice job moving them inside to a twotop, cleaning up the mess, and removing all the seating on that side of the building for the night.

Now on to the food: I was simply blown away! They have a happy hour from 4-6 with $2 oysters! The fish was so clean and cooked to perfection! The leek salad was beautifully dressed and came with the most perfect gooey eggs. But the star of the show was the beans; incredibly tender and in the most amazing southern-style collard greens sauce. Everything was so fresh and different! The meal was simply spectacular! I truly cannot wait to go back and try everything. Chef Tim is simply a GENIUS who clearly cares deeply about his food. Not to mention how kind and generous he is as a human being.
