Had a really great dining experience here yesterday afternoon. My husband and I ventured here for a late lunch Sunday afternoon and it was our first time visiting. We were seated right away and our server was fabulous! She was on top of everything from drink refills, ordering appetizers, and the timing of our entrees coming shortly after completing our apps. We had the bread and butter along with the artichoke dip for apps. For our entrees my husband had the blackened halibut tacos and I had the grilled prawn skewers. It was all super delicious. Loved how clean the restaurant was and really enjoyed ourselves from start to finish! We will be visiting again. read more

I liked Big Fish Grill so much better than I anticipated! It was a solid dinner with great company and friendly service. For some seafood dishes with a lot to choose from in Woodinville, Big Fish Grill is a solid choice. Big Fish Grill has multiple locations in the state, including this one in Woodinville, next to many shops and restaurants in a busy area of the city. It's easy to get to once you're off of the highway, but not walkable to wineries. We came here for dinner on a Wednesday night, meeting my partner's family who were visiting from out of town as they chose Big Fish Grill for a big group dinner. We made a reservation for the nine of us, so were seated immediately and were waited on the entire time. Service was quick and efficient with friendly staff. The menu is large, so is great for groups. I ordered the seafood cobb salad and a side of the chowder. The New England chowder was solid with everything you'd expect from a classic clam chowder. But the seafood cobb salad was delicious! I had shrimp, scallops and steelhead, so there was plenty of seafood over greens, hard boiled egg, bacon, bleu cheese and avocado. I enjoyed it and would order it again. I just loved how much seafood you get with this salad. Everyone else enjoyed their meal, including my partner who ordered the paella and scallops to start with. I wasn't expecting to like Big Fish Grill as much as I did. I guess knowing that it had multiple locations, it made me think of this place as some chain restaurant. But I could not be more wrong. Food was freshly made and satisfying. It was a pleasant surprise! read more

Amazing experience. Julian was a wonderful bartender and server. we will definitely be back.

Wholesome, friendly, family-oriented, good 'ole fashion hospitality, fresh ingredients. Try their fish & chips, crab cakes, and prime rib (Fridays only for the latter). read more

Ever get a craving for something that's just hard to find--or even harder to make at home? For me, it's always paella. Thankfully, this spot has it, and it absolutely satisfied the craving. The staff were warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere was quiet and pleasant--exactly what you'd expect from a well-run seafood chain. The red crab cakes were a standout, especially with that rich, flavorful sauce. My husband ordered the chicken piccata and was instantly smitten. Fair warning: it's heavy on the garlic, so if that's not your thing, you might want to skip it. Overall, the experience was great. The only miss for me was the berry cobbler--it leaned more toward pie territory. Still tasty, just not quite what you'd expect if you're craving a true cobbler. read more

Nice atmosphere, good service, huge portions, affordable prices, excellent food quality. Some of the best fish and chips I've had anywhere.

It was definitely good. But I don't think I will be returning. The waitress was really sweet and the ambiance is a classic dim lit restaurant with lamps at each table providing warm lighting. I would say the quality was between somewhere really nice (like The Keg) and Olive Garden. The dynamite shrimp tasted like honey walnut shrimp without the walnuts and the grilled wild salmon was good but nothing special. It was my first time trying cioppino and it was okay. My bf really liked the broth and the flavoring and I felt all the seafood was well cooked. Everything was good, just nothing super special. read more

Was on Woodinville last night after a glass fusing glass with a friend she suggested Big Fish Grill for dinner a place she has been before and enjoyed. They have a fairly large dining area and lounge. Host was friendly and we were immediately greeted upon entry. My friend ordered the paella and I had the Big Fish Cobb Salad. Both dishes were generous with seafood and the seafood was perfectly cooked. The chop salad had salmon,scallops and prawns. I'm glad I said dress on the side cause it usually comes tossed. We also had an order of bread that came out hot. Both dishes were well seasoned. I like a salad with lots of stuff and this had no shortage of items, olives, crumbled blue cheese, avocado, bacon,mushrooms, boiled egg was perfect meal for summer. read more

We were on a wine country weekend that happened to fall on the women's NCAA championship weekend, so of course we had to find a place to watch the game. Big Fish Grill had a good looking menu and the game on--win-win! The ambiance is sort of Sharis-ish, which IMO takes away from the experience of the food. Our server was GREAT! I didn't catch her name, but friendly with good recommendations and great customer service. The cocktails were pretty good! I had the Oddissee, a version of a Manhattan, which I really enjoyed. My friend had Grapefruit Crush, which made her wish she'd ordered wine. The dynamite shrimp was delicious! Highly recommend! The calamari--skip it. Rubbery and lacking in flavor. I got the shrimp and crab Louie, which I would have liked more if it had had something other than bay shrimp, but there was ample crab. Otherwise, pretty blah. My friend got the Big Fish Cobb, which looked a lot better than mine. I would have liked if garlic bread was on the menu. read more

This place is bad why are there any good food reviews. The service is great, all the kids who work there are so sweet and attentive but the food is awful. It comes out way too quick which is a sign that everything is pre cooked and then heated. Not that you need a sign because you then touch the salmon in the paella to try and identify what it is and it simply crumbles apart into dry pebbles. The saffron rice is actually dollar store yellow rice in a bag and it tastes like neutral cooking oil. Not even butter. The best taste came from the cracked pepper on the table. The gumbo was equally bad and seemed like dollar store canned tomato chunks with overcooked chicken and seafood. The vibe gives hotel lobby with the abundance of room lamps and jazzy elevator music. I had a memorable experience which made date night food but good lord. If you've ever watched a cooking show or lived in a major city you'll be disappointed by the food. But seriously great staff though. read more

Disappointing. I had doordash pickup my halibut tacos And salad. The pear, pecan, gorgonzola salad was three thin slices of pear and I rummaged through the lettuce for the cheese and pecans. I think they gave me a tablespoon worth of ingredients! The tacos tasted good but again the main ingredient, fish, was a small portion. A little more love and you would have had a repeat customer. I do not plan on ordering from them again. read more

Great location, first of all. Lots of free parking around the location and a consistent American franchise vibe on the interior and exterior of the restaurant. Comprehensive menu, cocktails and desserts included. They have a few protein options and daily specials also. Dynamite shrimp is great here, their fish tacos were great too. Pricing is on the upper end of average, portion sizes are good. Overall, service was quite average and a bit slow. But they were nice and helpful. read more

We were in town for a wedding and met some family members here after finding this on Yelp. Cassandra was so warm and inviting! We really enjoyed her as our server. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered. The avocado crab salad was excellent! The two oyster people at the table liked the pan fried oysters. Mom loved her fisherman's stew and the crab Mac and cheese was a big hit. The fish and chips were good, but nothing special. The food came out a little slow, but the decor was nice and the place was very clean. read more

This is our second dining experience and they did not disappoint. Both times the staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and just the right level of noise. The food was the real star of the show. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The halibut and salmon was seasoned to perfection. Easily the best fish house we've been to. They have an excellent bar selection, too! If you're looking for top-quality seafood and a great overall experience, this place is a must-visit. We can't wait to come back! read more

The food was decent. But Service was slow. Our waiter was plenty helpful with the menu but left us alone too long too often. After his glowing review of the chicken piccata I ordered it. What came was really tasty halibut with a side of really good rice. My husband ordered the fish with chips (cod) which was quite good. Crispy beer batter, not greasy and the fish was light and flaky. Overall the food gets a 4 but service brought it down to a 3 overall. read more

Have been here twice now, second time being yesterday evening for our 9 year anniversary dinner. :) Had a very enjoyable experience, and I always appreciate the atmosphere. It is very upscale laid back, if you will. We had the Caesar salad, crab cakes, seafood jambalaya and the salmon special of grilled wild sockeye topped with crab meat. All selections were very tasty but I am picky about crab cakes and wish they were slightly more crisp. Otherwise, everything tasted fantastic. My husband said the jambalaya broth tasted too strongly of andouille sausage and not enough seafood flavor but I happened to love the flavor and kept stealing spoonfuls. We do plan to return and not just for special occasions but as a quiet date night every now and again. Oh, and BEST SOURDOUGH EVER. read more

My opinion of the Big Fish Grill is starting to slip. Yes. They have an enjoyable menu priced accordingly to being downtown Woodinville. The menu is sized correctly, Big Fish knows what it wants to cook. Yes, the staff is nice, friendly, and willing to stop by the table for a cordial, brief conversation. I noticed that the staff was spending time at all the tables, it was nice to see them engage. No, it wasn't too much time. Yes, the food was fast, fresh, well-seasoned; it was an enjoyable plate of food. Why not 5 stars? Big Fish is starting to show its age. The decor, colors, and design are becoming dated. Update it and it will shine once again. read more

My husband and I got takeout from this place for lunch yesterday, and we both really enjoyed our food. We got the Spinach Artichoke Dip with Tortilla Chips for our Appetizer. The tri-color chips were crisp, thick, and warm, and not overly greasy. The Spinach Artichoke Dip was creamy, warm, and very flavorful. We did run out of chips before we ran out of Artichoke Dip, but we liked the dip so much that we found some crackers in the cupboard so that we could finish eating the dip. My husband got the Grilled Chicken Pesto Sandwich for his entree, and he really liked it. I got the Big Cobb Salad for my entree, and I loved it. The vinaigrette dressing tasted really good (although there wasn't quite enough of it included in our to-go bag), and everything was super fresh. There was a good-sized portion of salmon, 2 prawns, 2 scallops, an avocado, black olives, mushrooms, bleu cheese crumbles, and a hard-boiled egg on my salad. Great combination of flavors. We're both very happy with this place, and we would definitely go here again for lunch or possibly dinner. read more

Mom and I were at Molbaks (the plant nursery down the street) and decided we were starving and wanted fish. Having never been to Big Fish we decided to give it a try. Glad we did. We both ordered Fish N Chips, she had halibut, I had salmon. I also ordered a cup of clam chowder. The clam chowder was delicious. She loved her halibut and I loved my salmon. Fish N Chips come in three options; cod, halibut or salmon. The pieces were large; she received 3 halibut, I received 4 salmon, (I'm guessing because halibut is more expensive). The French fries were delicious and so was the tarter sauce. Our server was wonderful, he was perfectly attentive and friendly without being there too much and without being overly or obviously falsely friendly. Overall a 5 star experience and we will most definitely be back. read more

Came here for happy hour, and so glad we did! Happy hour is daily and they also have reverse happy hour 9pm to close. We ordered drinks and HH Dynamite shrimp,m to share. I got Pork sliders, and my fiancé ordered the grilled avocado crab salad. I loved my sliders, but my fiancé was so sad with what the salad turned out to be - mainly because my fiancé was expecting crab salad with grilled avocado on top instead of a small portion of crab in the pit hole of an avocado that is grilled (See photos below just so you aren't surprised) The HH drink specials were good for the signature cocktails, but the specifics of the specials weren't explained clearly to us - it's only $2 off on the signature cocktails NOT the classic. All the drinks were good, but I would have tried other drinks eligible for happy hour since those looked good too. Apparently ladies night on Thursday is where it's at too - $5 cocktail specials! read more

A friend and I went for a walk on the Burke-Gilman Trail with Big Fish Grill as our destination point. We got there in time for happy hour, sat in the bar, and were welcomed by a cheerful young woman who greeted us with a smile and a warm welcome. We had a delicious cocktail (a classic Mojito, and a Huckleberry Basil Mule,) shared an order of coconut prawns, then each ordered fish tacos. I have some food intolerances and often a bit wary when eating out, but my dinner was delicious and didn't include any of the foods I asked them to omit. I appreciate a restaurant where staff is engaging, the food and drink are tasty, and the atmosphere is fun. I'll be going back! read more

As I say been there and done it ! It was very disappointing event from drinks to foods. Foods was bland no taste , it seem it came from an frozen prepackaged halibut ? I had better ! What establishments doesn't take Discover Card? That was new , upon paying my dinner , I was told they don't take discover card as form of payment! As we order our dessert , Apple crisp with vanilla ice cream , sound good right? Well we informed they didn't have vanilla ice cream !! What ? Am like WTF?

Kind of don't want to leave a review so this place won't get more crowded but have to give credit to this place. Every time I've been there the service was phenomenal and food pretty good.

The times I've been there were usually during the quitter moments with mellow music. read more

Walked in on a Friday night after the movies we were expecting there may be some sort of wait. When we walked in we noticed the dining room was only half full so we figured we may be seated quickly. After checking in, we were informed the wait would be 25-30 minutes. Figured the tables must be reserved for dinners since we came in at 6:15pm. After 30 minutes we were seated. Server was friendly and engaging. I settled for the special which was the hazelnut crusted halibut with a blackberry/blueberry compote with grilled asparagus and a seasoned rice along with a starter pear and blue cheese salad. The salad was decent. I would have preferred chunks of pears rather than large slices of pears. If you take dice up the Romain, might as well make the pears the same size to keep everything consistent. The salad was a little bit overdressed, but flavors worked. Nothing like the combination of nuts, pear, goat cheese and a light vinaigrette. The halibut was great. The hazelnut crust was crispy, the halibut was moist and hot and the compote added a nice touch to the dish. The rice was ok. Kind of plain Jane and obvious it sits in a heat tray and would rather they serve it with some potatoes or pilaf. The asparagus was sub par. My kids #2 pencils has more size to the asparagus they offered. It's a crime to serve spaghetti thin asparagus and had I known, probably would have asked to substitute for the season vegetable. Oh yeah, by the time we finished dinner around 8:15, the same empty tables around us remained empty. I am not sure what the reason the restaurant had to keep all the tables open when there are no reservations (or everyone no-showed). There were customers walking away due to the wait. You would think a restaurant wants to occupy all tables at dinner service. Overall, i would come again, but next time make a reservation. read more

I'm only giving three stars for the service, our server was very friendly, knowledgeable, and gave just the right amount of service. The food however: Parmesan crusted halibut: tasted like a pre-breaded frozen filet you get at the grocery store, cooked more consistent to fish and chips than flaky halibut. The asparagus was extremely overcooked, very wilted. Jambalaya: also definitely a premixed US foods exclusive, bland and boring. Didn't even finish it. Grilled artichoke appetizer: not too bad because it was just a grilled artichoke soaking in butter, but maybe a little too much butter, they give you wet wipes with them so it's not like they don't know. Brussel sprout appetizer: this was the only really good thing, very simple but great flavor. We chose this place because we were headed to a movie and it was close. Like I said the service was GREAT, but when the food is this quality, why go back. I mean the whole point of a restaurant is to EAT there, right? read more

Cassidy was our server/bartender and she was great! Nice and not overbearing service. Came in for a yummy dinner Friday. Started with a Martini and a Beer for us - drinks were delicious. Lavender Lemon drop is a for sure staple when we come back again. The dynamite shrimp were a great starter - perfect amount for two to share. Dinner was fantastic. I had the Crab Cakes - they were cooked so perfect and the rice was delicious. Also I'm not sure what they put on the Broccoli but it was cooked so perfect and tasted delicious. My date had the Wagyu mixed burger and added bacon and cheese. He said it was absolutely delicious. The fries he mentioned were "perfect". I couldn't agree more - they were hands down some of the best fries I have ever had! YUM. Overall great experience and great food! Thanks and see you guys again! read more
