    Bbq Black Cod
    Emily C.

    Could this be the finest seafood establishment in Memphis? The hype around Coastal Fish is one I can now personally attest to and wholeheartedly agree with. We were seated in front of the water, and I could immediately tell this place was the real deal. Upon opening my menu, I was instantly inundated with an array of seafood and even a few "land" offerings. I had a hard time choosing my dish, as so many options sounded awesome. My table mates and I shared a couple of plates of fried calamari, which I was surprised to enjoy. Squid and most crustacean dishes are far from my liking, but this calamari was fried so well that I could happily forget what I was eating. After a few bites, I shared the Chopped Salad (half portion) with my boyfriend. This salad was PHENOMENAL. It was incredibly tasty and beautifully plated. My favorite touch was the crispy bacon and ripe tomatoes. Everything about the salad was perfect! My entree was by far the star of the show. I ordered the BBQ Black Cod, and substituted the okra for crispy Brussels sprouts. I was incredibly appreciative of the staff's willingness to grant my substitution request, as these Brussels were to die for! As for the rest of the dish, I have zero notes! The cod was cooked perfectly and paired with a sweet, maple glaze atop sweet corn grits. I would absolutely come back just for this dish! I was fortunate enough to try a bite of the Idaho Rainbow Trout, which came in a close second to my own dish. Not only was the food here outstanding, but the table service was almost too good. The staff here will never leave your drink empty or your table cluttered. Their vigilance did not go unnoticed! While I'm not a Memphis resident, I'll make my best persuasive effort to return to Coastal on my next trip to the city.

    The food was what I call perfection. I ordered the steak and lobster tail. My meal didn't require any type of steak sauce or additional sauce because it didn't need anything added. The steak was so juicy and the lobster tail was excellent. Everyone in my party of eight ordered practically everything on the menu and everyone says everything was so good that they will definitely be coming back again. The customer service was impressive from the beginning to the end. Our server was named Abigail and she provided A1 service. She was knowledgeable, helpful, professional and proficient. The atmosphere was relaxing and elegant with a view like a piece of heaven. The pond view with the sun beaming against the water was beautiful. We went to celebrate my birthday and it's definitely a birthday I will never forget. If you want to go some where special then this is definitely the place.

    The food here is always good as well as the service. This is our go-to for date nights and any celebration.

    My scallop entrée
    Milynda B.

    The food was just okay for me because I didn't really enjoy the scallop dish I ordered. I wasn't aware that the entrée would only include about four delectable scallops, and the side looked similar to avocado toast, which I wasn't expecting. I knew the dish contained avocado, but I didn't realize it would be served on top of a thick slice of toast. On the positive side, my husband thoroughly enjoyed his salmon entrée. I also had the wedge salad, which was delicious. I would have preferred ranch dressing instead of blue cheese, but I don't recall being asked which dressing I wanted. Even so, the salad and my drink were both outstanding. The service was top-tier--professional, attentive, and excellent in every way. The restaurant offers spectacular waterfront views, and I especially enjoyed watching the sunset and taking in the atmosphere. This is definitely an upscale establishment with a romantic ambiance, making it a great choice for date nights, entertaining out-of-town guests, or celebrating special occasions. I would absolutely recommend it and look forward to returning. Next time, I'll probably order the oysters because they looked amazing. Oh! In addition, this is a great spot for lovely pics.

    Caprese salad up top, tuna tartare and cocktail oysters next, and sunrise sashimi.

    Came for the first time as an anniversary treat and on recommendation from a coworker. Absolutely would visit again. The location on the water is just beautiful. Now, it took a bit to get service due to a miscommunication, but the staff and management absolutely made it all right. Our server Lizzie was awesome!! She was so friendly and just the right amount of attentive and helpful. We really wanted good quality seafood and we got it. We had a selection of raw things - cocktail oysters, tuna tartare, sashimi - and it was so delicious. Each bite was complex and fresh beyond explanation. I also had the lobster bisque, which might have to become a staple for repeat visits. I cant wait to come back to try some dinner entrees.

    Coastal Fish Company is always a great spot for a romantic night out or a great dinner experience. For starters, we had the NOLA oysters, and they are probably my favorite oysters in Memphis. I love the sauce, and you can definitely tell the oysters are fresh. Next, we had the steak and mashed potatoes -- the steak was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The lobster bisque was my starter, and it was honestly one of the best I've had in a while. The only small disappointment was the dessert , pineapple upside down cake. It seemed a little overcooked because it had a slightly burnt taste at the bottom. Overall, the service is always 10/10, and I'd give the food a solid 9/10. Definitely one of my favorite places in Memphis for a quality dining experience. i'd like to come back again and watch the sunset from the patio.

    Wow, what an amazing time we had! From the arrival, to the hostess stand, our seating, and the wait staff. Everything went great! It's a beautiful place nestled in Shelby farms. The first question our waitress asked, was we celebrating anything? I told her we were actually celebrating our Thirty-Fourth Wedding Anniversary. While we were looking at the menus, she brought us a glass of champagne with a strawberry on top. And congratulated us on our anniversary. Her waitressing skills were impeccable. We wanted or waited for nothing the whole night! I haven't even gotten started on the food yet. I can honestly say every dish we got was amazing. It's so refreshing to have everything go right in a restaurant. There were so many great options on the menu. I had a problem figuring out what I wanted. So I just ordered way to many things......lol.... We started off with the Blackened Shrimp Brie Dip and the Sauted Blue Crab Claws. They were some of the best appetizers we've ever had. This includes restaurants near the ocean. I also got the classic half wedge salad. Usually a salad is nothing to write home about. I'm here to tell you that was the freshest, best tasting salad. I've ever had. For the main course, I got the Spicy Louisiana Red Fish. Whith Jambalaya, Andouille Sausage, Shrimp, Crawfish, In a Cajun Cream Sauce and my wife got the Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes with Steamed Green Beands and Garlic Whipped Potatoes. Just to make it more difficult on myself. I also added the Jumbo Cocktail Shrimp on Half Shells. I know I sound like a broken record, but every dish was absolutely amazing. The food is so fresh and flavorful. They are a little on the expensive side. But trust me, you deserve it. You only live once! We finished up the evening with a Creme Brulee and a Piece of Dark Chocolate Covered Lime Pie. I think at this point it's very safe to say we were miserable. I highly recommend Coastal Fish Company! You won't regret it. There was not one bad thing or improvement, I could talk about. I really don't know how their seafood is so fresh. This far from the ocean. I look forward to coming back and trying some other dishes. I can honestly put this place in my top three restaurants of all time......... Just so you know, the valet parking is complimentary.

    We dined in last night to celebrate a birthday. We were seated on the back patio area. The weather has been temperamental lately but it was a little bit warmer so it worked out. There were heaters going by the time the sun set which helped not out the chill coming from the lake. Gianna was our server for the evening. Cocktail: Coastal 75: yummy! NOLA style half dozen oysters: soo flavorful and delicious. I should have gotten a full dozen We enjoyed sitting with one another while eating and chatting. The atmosphere is welcoming. The view of the lake at sunset is nice as well. There is complimentary valet available for those dining in. Point Judith calamari: crispy and seasoned well

    De'Anna W.

    Amazing service and delicious food. I had my last meal of 2025 here and the experience did not disappoint. We had a table outside with a waterfront view and although it was chilly outside the heat lamps kept me nice and toasty. The professionalism of the staff here is A1 but our server Colby was arguably the best. He was personable, attentive and extremely knowledgeable of the menu. New Year's Eve had a special 4 course menu at $115 per person and everything I had was absolutely delicious. My meal plan included the rock shrimp pot pie, New England clam chowder, butter poached lobster tail and the key lime pie. I also had two Casamigos cocktails that I customized to my liking and enjoyed their complimentary champagne toast at the end of the meal. The dim lit vibe, well prepared food and the top notch service here all served as a good way to end the year. Random Tips: they have complementary valet and heated patio lamps

    Updated: 01/02/2026 Been here multiple times mostly for special occasions. Today it was for a birthday. Got the Encrusted Yellow Finn Tuna. I feel like it was cooked perfectly for me. The center is tartare but not cool not cold. The vegetable sushi enhanced the meal. Got my usual Nola baked oysters. Wife got the filet and it was cooked as ordered. Waiter and wait staff were good. Sat in the Commodore room which tends to be much less noisy so ambiance was good. Received a mini crème brûlée topped with fresh berries which is complimentary with a birthday.

    Patio in love
    Ryan M.

    One of the coolest seating areas on the patio, the lake view during sunset was just gorgeous. Our server was super sweet and helpful, and the food came out pretty quick. The crab claws were incredible, and so was the Louisiana redfish. Girlfriend loved the lobster bisque too.

    Marcus R.

    When I say this was a wonderful experience! The service was top tier ! My waiter made sure I had everything I needed to have a great experience. The ambiance was so relax and peaceful. My food was delicious !! The lobster tail was life-changing in a good way and my lobster bisque soup was so creamy. The west Indigo eggrolls were so goood !!! Omg! The chocolate covered strawberry mousse cake was delicious. I will definitely be back

    Derrik N.

    I came to Coastal Fish Company for a special occasion after wanting to try it for years, and honestly the experience was really disappointing--especially the service. Our server was barely attentive to our table. She went around checking on other tables near us, but hardly came to ours at all. The only time she really interacted with us was when she brought the check. No follow-up, no asking how the food was, no drink refills--nothing. It honestly felt like we were overlooked the entire time. To make things worse, she wasn't even the one who brought out our food. Someone else dropped it off, and after that we were basically on our own. For a restaurant at this price point, I expected much more attentive and professional service. The food didn't make up for it either. I ordered the Chilean sea bass, and it was very underwhelming. The fish lacked flavor, the potatoes were soggy, and overall it just wasn't enjoyable. Definitely not what you expect for the price. Overall, between the inattentive service and the disappointing food, the experience just didn't live up to the hype at all.

    Has anyone brought their baby here?

    Yes, Great Atmosphere for children. Very friendly staff.

    Can you bring your own bottle of wine?

    Not this time

    Do you need reservations for Father's Day?

    Highly recommend a reservation for Father's Day. Don't be surprised if you are told they are full booked. This is a VERY GOOD and POPULAR restaurant.

    Are children welcome?

    Yes I did children present when I visited

    How is the outdoor seating in summer ,comfortable?

    Jayson, honestly the outdoor isn't too bad; given the hot temps. I've dined outside on my 2 recent visits (brunch & lunch). It's Memphis, humid and hot, yet bearable. There are fans placed around the area & staff does their best to accommodate… 

    What are the lunch hours?

    Lunch/Brunch hours are: Friday | 11:00 am — 9:00 pm Saturday — Sunday | 10:30 am — 9:00 pm… 

    Is it necessary to have a reservation?

    No, but I would suggest making one on the open table app just in case!

    What is the appropriate attire?

    As Ms. Natasha said, it's a nice dining experience so I, out of habit, wear a collared shirt but I've seen more relaxed dress. I know for a fact coats and ties aren't required.

    Best place to sit?

    Outside, closer.to the building, or inside near a window.

    What time does the dinner menu start?

    3:00pm on weekdays. Not sure about the weekend.

    Do y'all have dessert?

    yes they do - and it changes - several homemade gelato/sorbet - creme brulee, some cakes - it's on their menu on the website as well.

Though this did happen. After I posted it. I contacted the restaurant manager who was very apologetic that this happen and immediately wanted to make it right. We had a very good conversation about it and I'm convinced that this is not the behavior they allow from their staff. Shortly after that the district manager also called to apologize, we also had a very good conversation about this. I'm impressed with their response to this and will absolutely go back because it is one of our favorite places to eat, the food is excellent. To all my friends and family who contacted me about this please continue to support this business, in hindsight I should have waited for the manager's response prior to posting my post, but I was so taken back by the person's attitude.

The food is always fresh and if by chance there is an issue, they readily resolve to satisfaction. While my issues have been few and very far, I've witnessed a few "challenging" guests. They were handled them with dignity and professionalism. I appreciate being able to watch sports (especially basketball) while dining. The Southwest Cobb is my favorite, mainly because of the variety of vegetables and the level of freshness. If you like spice, the blackened shrimp has an excellent kick. If playing it safe (heartburn is real), simply ask them to go lighter on the blackened. Both the Poplar Ave and Cooper Young locations have an active security guard/lot attendant on the parking lots. There is such a relief in knowing that you don't have to anticipate a broken window or worse when returning to your vehicle. I give Soul Fish Cafe ! While they are known for the fried and blackened fish, the shrimp is always perfect. Quote me on that!

The staff was very friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant itself was clean. The food had good flavor, and I would consider ordering it again. Unfortunately, it was served only lukewarm instead of at the proper temperature, which took away from the overall experience. What stood out most, however, was the presentation of the restaurant. Upon entering, I was greeted by numerous handwritten paper signs and messages written on dry-erase boards throughout the dining area. For a restaurant with mid-range pricing, this came across as unprofessional and distracted from the dining experience. I was also surprised that there was no standard silverware available--only individually wrapped, inexpensive plastic forks and spoons. As I was leaving, I noticed several customers were being served their meals in takeout containers rather than on traditional plates, which further gave the impression of a casual takeout establishment rather than a dine-in restaurant. Overall, the friendly service and flavorful food were definite positives, but the food temperature and the overall presentation of the restaurant left me remembering why I rarely choose to dine at Red Pier. With a few improvements to presentation and attention to detail, the experience could better match the prices being charged.

The reason we chose this restaurant for our dinner was, simply, their grilled scallops. I've enjoyed them before and Tuesday's were even better than my recollection. The accompanying corn risotto, a seasonal special, was delicious. Its unexpectedly crunchy texture was a nice contrast to the tender scallops. We enjoyed a chilled rosé, and ended our meal with one of this restaurant's tiny-and-tasty desserts each: s'more for me, key lime for my husband. Perfect! But, my real motivation for writing this review is to compliment our waitress, Sophie. In my experience it's not easy to strike the right note when serving dinner to strangers. Sophie's work was just right; she listened to our requests, making eye contact with us both, and visiting our table at intervals that were attentive without being intrusive. The kitchen prepared appealing plates and Sophie delivered them while they were hot. Best of all, she chatted with us, shared a little if herself and listened when we reciprocated. At the end of our dinner, our car was retrieved promptly by pleasant valets, and we were quickly on our way. All in all, we had a very relaxed and pleasant evening, so thank you, Seasons 52, and thank you, Sophie!
