Ate in the bar area, the service was great as always. The Ginger Custard Salmon was cooked to perfection. Im so glad the dish is back on the menu. The General Manager stopped by my table to make sure the meal was to my satisfaction, which of course it was delicious. This is a great place to eat with great service. read more

I have been going here since it was owned by Cameron Mitchell. First it was sold to Ruth's Chris and then to Landry's, the current owner. The quality of food and service has really dropped. Went there for an annual and traditional holiday lunch with a friend--we've been doing this at least 30 years. I checked the menu online before I went so I could decide. A lunch menu was online. When my friend and I were seated, my friend commented that the prices had greatly increased. It was the dinner menu. When I asked our server whether they had discontinued the lunch menu I saw online--he said 'they must have forgotten to give it to us.' He returned with the lunch menu. I ordered the tilapia bianca. It was awful. The shrimp was steamed/broiled but the tilapia was fried. Who puts a buerre blanc sauce over fried fish and pasta? The pasta was lumped together under a third of the plate instead of under all of the food. I ate half, and boxed half because I didn't want my friend to think I was ungrateful, and threw the rest away when I got home. This was on a Friday at lunch time. Unlike when it was a Mitchell's restaurant and full on Fridays--there could not have been more than 8 other diners. I noticed that the host was still seating people with dinner menus. Due to a mix up a week earlier, I was unable to meet my friend and he stayed and ate. He told me they gave him the dinner menu that day too. I don't think they 'forget.' I think that business is slow because the quality of the food has declined, and so they make up the difference in the lunch sales drop off by hoping people won't notice that they've not been offered the lunch menu. I am unlikely to return. read more

The food was very good ranging from scallops to salmon and the fish platter. Credit to the chef. Ambiance - poor. We were there for a birthday dinner the day after Christmas and the music playing was more appropriate for a nearby diner than holiday fine dining. We asked about change of music and were told by the waiter that he thought the music fine but would consider a change later if needed. Since it was my birthday they had mentioned a free Sunday ice cream. Then the waiter raved about the carrot cake which I normally love, so we ordered it to share. We ordered four coffees and waited for quite some time until the waiter came with the bill before serving our dessert - "the acclaimed carrot cake." Ironically, the waiter had already laid out dessert silverware for us, but had forgotten our order of dessert. It was disappointing as far as quality carrot cake goes -- dense rather than moist cake. He then put on a full court press for us to subscribe to a Landry's membership card. He said it comes with a $25 membership fee but they immediately refund your $25 to your membership card if you go online and sign up. When the bill came, the $25 membership card was included with all of the other meal items as though we should tip for the $25 membership card as well - do you believe it! My wife then said "hey whatever happened to my husband's birthday dessert?" He then went on to comment about how they normally have a brownie with ice cream, but they had run out due to the holidays and did not have any substitutes. Naturally, my wife was thinking that the carrot cake would've made for a fine substitute, but no such offer was considered. Needless to say while, the food was good. The ambience and the Service sunk the ship. Don't think we will be back again anytime soon. read more

The resturant is clean and I'm a sucker for subway tile. First time in Ohio, so I was already taking a chance here. As for service, our waiter Aiden was amazing. But I have to be honest, I wouldn't come back here. It felt like it is a red lobster trying to be upscale. To play devil's advocate a bit, they do in fact have fresh fish in ice on display. I ordered the walleye and it wasn't seasoned, breaded poorly, the green beans didn't give their vibrant green as fresh ones normally do. The mashed potatoes were solid and the "blue crab slaw" was a dollop of sodium. Holding out for better results in other Ohio restaurants. Save yourself by not making the same mistake that I did. read more

Stopped in for their power lunch. Great deal $20 for 2 items! I got the shrimp pasta and it's now one of my favorite pasta dishes in the city! The salad was OK. The lettuce was a too wilted for me. I stayed for the happy hour. Great deals on food and drinks! read more

I haven't been to Columbus Fish Market in well over a decade. With friends, I recently gave it another shot on a Sunday late afternoon. Our server was polite and kept my water glass full -- thumbs up! The bread was good. The meatball appetizer could have used salt but tasted fine. For more than $5 per meatball, though, a little pricey. The French Sangria was decent, but it ... didn't have wine? It had cognac, but no wine? A bit odd. Caesar salad was eh. A *lot* of dressing on it. The $11 iceberg lettuce had brown spots. Maybe that's why the dressing was liberally applied. It felt like they were clearing out the fridge of the last bit of lettuce clinging for dear life before a new shipment arrived. I played the role of obedient customer and ate it, though. Then came the saddest entre I could imagine. It was billed as a broiled seafood platter with salmon, shrimp, and scallops. Alliteration -- I love it! The salmon? Maybe a 3oz strip, where the thin part of the piece was basically black and the rest had very little color. The scallops? I counted 11 dime-sized pale scallops huddling together on one side of the plate. The shrimp? Unquestionably tough through-and-through. Those poor shrimp were unalived twice -- first when they were caught, and again when they were cooked to oblivion. A large dollop of potato mash accompanied the meal, and a few carrot slivers and broccoli florets for the veg. Honestly, the plate looked sad. I'm generally too nice to send food back, so I soldiered through it. I had to apply salt to the meal because the kitchen obviously hadn't. Again, those poor shrimp -- in life, they had *families*, and yet they gave themselves up only to receive this deplorable treatment. Absolutely awful and beyond tough. I can only imagine the whole plate was sat under a heat lamp and forgotten for a good 15 minutes before being served. The worst part about this "entree" was its US$41 price tag. I really should have sent it back and asked for a different meal. It's my fault for choking it all down. The thought of those poor shrimp suffering even more unimaginable indignity at the bottom of a garbage bag motivated me to the end. The key lime pie for dessert was fine. Overall, two stars = "Could've been better", so there it is. Maybe more stars had I chosen a "correct" entre. I keep thinking of Indy meeting the Grail Knight and Donovan drinking from the wrong cup earning him the rebuke of "he chose ... poorly". Sorry, Columbus Fish Market. I might wait another decade before I give you another shot. read more

Food was fresh, tasty, and executed with care. Drinks actually had some major effort put into them as these weren't your average Happy Hour drinks with a whole bunch of syrup with little to no alcohol in them. Fries were crisp, ravioli was packed with lobster, wings were crispy and well sauced and the fish sandwich for $10 was MASSIVE! We'll definitely be back! read more

We arrived on a Monday night so things were quiet as far as the ambience goes. Our server Ross was very cordial and attentive. We ordered the crab cake appetizer and it was delicious. I ordered the Shanghai seafood sampler and my husband ordered the Shanghai sea bass. Both entrees were very tasty. For dessert we ordered the chocolate butter cake with raspberries and raspberry sauce topped with ice cream. It was yummy as well. Also it was our anniversary so they provided us with a menu signed by everyone which was cute but I had kind of thought that we would get a free dessert or something but still a nice gesture. read more

Having never visited the Columbus Fish Market before, it was a nice change of pace for me and my friends I also wanted to get some delicious drinks and chat it up. The atmosphere was nice and we decided to hang out at the bar where the bartender was extremely busy. They seemed short-staffed as the GM hopped in to help with the orders. Both had great attitudes about it and we were fine waiting a bit while they helped other folks. I got a couple of the Moscato White Sangrias and a shareable of their Crispy Calamari which had chili soy dipping sauce, green beans, and red bell peppers. We destroyed the dish and they covered it as we had to wait. That was so kind! We will be back again for dinner one day! Great parking at this location too! read more

I have always been a fan of the Fish Market. It is rare to find such delicious fare in a state so far from shore. We visited again and had the wonderful luck of having Tori serve us. She was helpful in making our selections and was very kind. Our meals were beautifully prepared and delicious as always. My fixed priced selection included the house salad, the entree, and crème brûlée. It was a great deal. read more

Went during Restaurant week. I chose the ginger crusted salmon, upgraded to a wedge salad and had the dark chocolate butter cake. Service was great, very attentive server. Large spacious interior, but quickly filled with people. Glad we had reservations! The wedge salad was good, nice crisp bacon, plenty of blue cheese. The Ginger Salmon is where It lost it for me. There was no flavor, honestly tasted like it had been steamed. The sticky rice was great and the steamed veggies were fantastic as well. Dark chocolate butter cake had a wonderful raspberry drizzle atop that really provided a nice contrast to the rich cake. read more

Christmas pre fixe dinner was excellent. Beth was a gracious and efficient hostess, taking very good care of us as we enjoyed a delicious seafood dinner. Not a fan of the two-seater tables against the wall but I do understand effective use of space in the dining area on a busy evening. We love their fish and chips and tartar sauce on a regular day but this evening we indulged in their special dinner. We started with calamari due to not recalling if we ever had it. I'm a stickler for good calamari and this was good, and now in the top 3 of my favorite. Light and crispy, the tentacles were not difficult to ingest. Then I ordered the house salad and my beau ordered the butternut squash soup. Loved the dates in my salad and the poppy seed dressing was just sweet and tangy enough for my palate. His butternut squash soup was silky and very tasteful of butternut and the temperature stayed warm throughout eating it. For our entrees I ordered the crab cake and shrimp with corn and mashed potatoes. Prepared Maryland styled, the crab cake was very tasty. You can always tell when shrimp is fresh and cooked perfect when you can pull the tails off without issue. A little more effort than usually needed was a must to do this, and the shrimp was slightly overcooked for me. The potatoes were okay and the corn was good. His Shanghai Seafood Sampler was delicious. I know he loved the green onions on it. The teriyaki styled sauce over steamed rice made this super indulgent. My mouth is watering now while I type this. Very tasty! Our dessert choices were a type of cheesecake (which we don't ever go for), a creme brulee with berries (an overrated item in our opinion) and the key lime pie, which we delightfully enjoyed. Perfectly tart and sweet with copious crust to enjoy. The vanilla lime drizzle and whipped cream on top balanced the dessert adequately. For $54 a person (our calamari was extra), this was worth the drive up and every bite in my opinion. We love seafood and Columbus Fish Market! read more

Charged $4.99 for curbside fee and when I arrived I was told I had to come in to get it. Poor service!

The bartender couldn't get her face out of her phone to even acknowledge us when we sat down at the empty bar! She was rude the entire time, and on her phone. When the check came, she then acted nicer to get tipped, I guess! read more

Great burger, great seasoning. Yummy fries. I will say, the pickles weren't the best and the bottom of the bun got soggy quickly, also, the bartender when we first came into the restaurant was rude. (That's the reason for the 4 stars, our waitress was great) read more

Columbus Fish market continues to be an excellent seafood restaurant, one of the best in Columbus for fresh fish. I love their Chilean seabass, especially their so called "Shanghai style" preparation, which serves the seabass broiled, with ponzu rice plum sauce. It's delicious. I also like their bbq bacon shrimp appetizer. Their sourdough bread is a bit oily for me but still good. They also have a nice wine and cocktail selection. The ambiance is traditional, wood panels everywhere and the last few times I have been here the service had been outstanding. read more

Happy Hour is pretty great. $5 cocktails, $6.5 premium spirits and wine along with some beers for $3.50. They have multiple options for food. We opted for the tomato and goat cheese flatbread, crispy calamari and the blackened fish tacos. Great prices and very shareable potions. Happy Hour is only available in the bar area but there were lots of seating options with great service. read more

We usually don't indulge in wine but tonight we started out with a sweet moscato followed by lobster bisque for me and Caesar salad for my companion. I had the stuffed card and my companion had the Americano, which was scallops, shrimp, potatoes, spinach, and a wonderful sauce. Both of our dishes were amazing was an excellent night. I ended my night with a shareable. Crème brûlée would definitely come back! read more

"Fine Dining, Fast Exit" I visited Columbus Fish Market Sunday evening in a group of ten, with high hopes and a healthy appetite. The ambiance was classy, the service attentive, and the menu was clear, tempting, though a bit pricey. . I ordered grilled salmon and shrimp, with mashed potatoes, steamed broccoli, and lemon water. Everything looked fresh and tasted great--no complaints on presentation or flavor. But the next morning, my digestive system filed a formal protest. It started with a polite stomach grumble. By noon, I was dealing with urgency and mush. By late afternoon, it was a full-blown liquid evacuation. Not ideal. Thankfully, things returned to normal the next day, but the 24-hour fallout was memorable for all the wrong reasons. To be clear, nothing seemed off during the meal. No strange smells, no questionable textures. Just a delayed gut reaction that made me wonder about what went wrong and this upscale seafood joint. Whether it was a mild contaminant, or just bad luck, I can't say. But I can say this: Columbus Fish Market serves elegant food that did not agree with my digestive system Sunday evening, though I've eaten there several times before with no problems. If I had a more resilient gut, I probably would have loved it. But alas, my stomach reacted dramatically the next day, Monday. Proceed with caution--or at least know where the nearest restroom is. read more

I came here for Easter dinner and the service was good. But the food was absolutely terrible. I ordered the Maryland Crab Cake and it was very mushy and just not good. I tried the fish and chips for my entrée. And the fish didn't have any taste to it at all. I was very shocked, because over the years I've heard people talk about how great the Columbus Fish Market was. Our waitress was nice. But overall I wish I would have just stayed home and made my own fish and chips. I don't think I will ever return. The food just wasn't quality. If it wasn't for the good service, definitely would just leave a one star review. The restaurant overall I guess was somewhat clean. It wasn't well lit in the restaurant. read more

It's giving upscale Red Lobster, and I don't mean that in a good way. I will say that the service was good - our waiter was kind and attentive. The food was not, however. The calamari was good but quite salty. I got the lobster bisque and it was super runny, like a broth - not good. We shared a stuffed fish dish with the standard sides. The sides were fine, albeit forgettable. The fish was just lame. It didn't really have any flavor, at all. It wasn't "bad". Just not good. The vibe is absolutely giving Red Lobster's big sister - corporately owned, and leaning nautical. Because of all of this, it's sorely overpriced. We won't be back. read more

*extremely late post* Went here in October for my birthday. We enjoyed all of our food. Our waitress was excellent. The atmosphere was dark and intimate. The reason for 4 and not 5 was because they didn't have any oysters. That was the only reason I wanted to go there that night. And it was my first time at the restaurant. We haven't been back just yet, but I do plan to. Keep up the good work, but please keep oysters stocked! Lol . We did get a free slice of cheesecake to make up for the oysters thing, either that or because it was my birthday. read more

We had a terrible experience tonight. My husbands food was wrong first (honest mistake), then came cold, the arrives correct on the third attempt. I was finished eating 30 minutes before he ate. Super disappointed. We hadn't been there in 10+ years and certainly won't be back. Very similar experience to Red Lobster. Instead of saying "sorry let's take off a drink or two" the manager said it should be paid for just because he ate it instead of sorry we put a damper on your evening. In 20+ years together we've never asked for compensation. Learned our lesson:/ read more

arrived at 5:30 on Saturday. we were surprised how few cars were in the parking lot and equally surprised there were so few customers. we sat and in a short time the wait staff approached and greeted us. I nice gentleman and professional. we reviewed the menu and selected what we wanted. my partner selected the salmon that was the special for the night. she was immediately informed that it no longer available. so the special was no longer available at 5:30 on a Saturday night. that was difficult to accept. the food was good and the evening was good despite the unavailable specialty. however the restrooms need some attention. except floor, the facility was clean. the floors in both restrooms looked clean but when we walked on it our shoes would stick to the floor read more

I'm very disappointed and frustrated with my most recent visit. This dinner was a birthday dinner for a friend that I had not seen in quite awhile and I came to this establishment for my first time, as I'm here from Texas visiting family. The waiter was less than thrilled to provide service (presumably because we had an 8pm reservation). He was inattentive, slow to provide water and even slightly sassy when we asked for things. We found hair in the salad and after mentioning that to the waiter, the manager came over and made a lackluster excuse stating, "They were probably breaking down for the night." He removed the item for the bill (as expected, honestly) but the poor service continued. One of our diners needed gluten free items and was given the wrong type of fish in the order. As our waiter, Justin had no idea that he was being served salmon instead of the walleye he had ordered. After questioning him, he finally took it back- without apologizing and frankly making the rest of us feel uncomfortable. This is not a place to visit - it looks like a Red Lobster inside, nothing special and top it off with all the above, absolutely horrendous. The Cameron Mitchell name / company should be an embarrassed. read more

Didn't love the experience, the food was mediocre at best, and it was pricey for what it was. We got a Crispy Calamari, 2x Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail, 2x Crab Cake Appetizer, a Spinach & Artichoke Dip, a Twin Lobster Tails, a Spritzed Up, a Brown Derby Old Fashioned, 2 Cucumber Lavender Martini, 2 bottles of Raymond Chardonnay Napa Reserve, a Fish & Chips, a Sea Bass (cooked Shanghai style), a Sea Scallops, a Seafood dish (cooked Shanghai style), a Surf & Turf with added Lobster Tail, 2x Vanilla Bean Crème Brulée, 2x Artisanal Cheesecake. The best bang for your buck is the Fish & Chips -- it came with 4 pieces of flash-fried fish, fries, hushpuppies, and a side of coleslaw. It was the little things throughout the night that added up & brought this review's rating to 3 stars. To name a few: we were asked if we wanted bread (we said yes) but was never served any, we specifically requested water w/out ice but was served water w/ ice, a dying out light bulb was constantly flickering on/off, an add-on dish was missing then brought out way after the entrée was served. Our reservation for a party of 7 was on a Saturday but the place was far from bustling and some servers were just milling around so it's tough to give them any benefit of the doubt with these lack of attention to details. Update: received a Business Owner reply to this review and was asked to share "just a few more pieces of info" through a link that took me to Landry's Dining Brands' generic Contact Us page (https://www.landrysinc.com/contact-info). I found this gesture extremely insincere and goes to show that Columbus Fish Market (Mitchell's Fish Market) only cares about feedback on the surface level as instead of directly messaging me or commenting on the review with follow up questions, I'm asked to jump through hoops and initiate another outreach. read more
