Came in around lunchtime and it was probably 75% empty. The food did take a long time to come out and the service was lacking. The server was mostly talking to other staff and had to be reminded multiple times about the order that was placed. Everything did come out correctly as it was not complicated but request for refills and sauces were ignored and eventually I had to ask somebody else..... Now to the good part, the food was hot and delicious! The potatoes were my favorite part of the meal. It has been years since I had clam strips so maybe that's why it seemed so good.

I asked bartender for happy hour menu. She said it is just for well drinks, a $5 margarita (good), a discount on beer and wine. NO FOOD. WhaaaaaaT? I thus had only a margarita and no food. Give me a discounted oyster or a flatbread next time. Puh-lease. It's 5 o'clock in Florida and that means happy hour discounts. Like your own sign indicates.

So I thought I HAD to give it a second visit and see if my first time was just a lucky chance. Well, I went today for brunch and experienced another 5 star meal. Since it was as great a meal today, I'll comment on behalf of both. Greeted IMMEDIATELY upon entering the restaurant by a friendly up beat employee. The restaurant was very clean and seemed to be operating at a smooth pace. We were led to our table and handed our menus. Our server was with us almost immediately, smiling and greeting us to the restaurant. Menus were handed out and our questions were answered. We had 5 people in our party and ordered 4 blackberry Bellinis and I had a coffee old fashioned. We ALL raved about our drinks and after a few more questions, we ordered our meals: Crab Cake Benedict, Smoked Salmon Benedict, Chicken Sandwich and a Philly Steak Sandwich. All I can say is that EVERY plate was EMPTY! We ALL LOVED our food! It was hot, fresh tasting and delicious flavors. Even the fries were hot, crisp, fresh and seasoned perfectly. Forgot, Two of our party members ordered the wild mushroom torte, and...NOTHING left on the plate!! Our food was so awesome that we had to try 2 desserts: Vanilla Bean Crème Brûlée and the Carrot Cake and yes...they were demolished and joined the 'Clean Plate Club'!!!!! EVERYTHING WAS OUTSTANDING AND EVERYONE IN OUR PARTY LEFT WITH AN AMAZINGLY AWESOME EXPERIENCE! GREAT job by EVERYONE WHO WORKED TODAY. Mic drop experience and I can't wait to go back!!!

We had a most enjoyable meal and experience at Madfish Grill. Service and food quality were top notch, not to mention we had a specialty from New England you cannot find most places, fried clam strips. I am picky with fried food and do not get it often and the clam strips we dined on as an appetizer had a light batter and were a real treat. It was a Tuesday and we opted for something off their Taco Tuesday special menu--fresh-made chips and guacamole to start were excellent. I really enjoyed my bowl I got as a meal, the ingredients were fresh and the combination of flavors were on point. My dining partner ordered a fish sandwich that was generously portioned and made out of a fish you traditionally only find in New England. Our server, her name sadly escapes me, was really excellent and on top of our orders, refilling water and drinks, and our requests. She has been there for fifteen years she relayed to us when I asked, which is a testament to what type of place this is. If you're looking for solid seafood in a nice atmosphere check out Madfish Grill. They have lots of specials and features to check out that can give you new options for every visit. I will return for sure to try more of the menu!

We came for dinner and left incredibly frustrated by both the food and the way the situation was…read morehandled. We ordered the Mad Thai pasta with blackened chicken. We asked if the fried egg that comes with the dish was sunny-side up and were told no, it would be fully cooked and the kitchen would not accommodate a sunny-side-up egg. That seemed unusually inflexible, but we said fine and ordered it as is. When the food arrived, the chicken was clearly not blackened. It was pale, with virtually no visible seasoning. Our waiter actually tried to tell us that the blackening had "fallen off in the sauce." We've had blackened chicken many times, and this simply wasn't blackened. To make matters worse, the egg that was supposed to come with the dish was missing entirely. We asked for the manager, who looked at the chicken and agreed that the blackening had washed off agreed that it did not appear to be blackened. He took it back, and the kitchen eventually sent out properly blackened chicken. Fair enough. But then the manager returned and tried to insist that the kitchen said the original chicken had been blackened and the seasoning had somehow come off in the sauce, even though he had just agreed with us that there was no seasoning on it. I've order this exact dish before, this chicken was not blackened and it could not have been more obvious. We then asked about the missing egg. After another trip to the kitchen, the manager told us we weren't getting one because the kitchen had already scrambled it. We had never asked for a scrambled egg and the menu called for a fried egg, so that made no sense. Apparently, because they had already cooked the egg incorrectly, the kitchen refused to cook another one. I've never met a more weak manager, totally terrified of the kichen. At that point my husband had had enough and sent his meal back. What surprised us most was the manager's reaction. He didn't apologize, offer another dish, or ask if my husband wanted anything else. He simply said okay and walked away. A customer came in for dinner, ended up with no dinner at all, and the manager seemed completely unconcerned about it, and was happy to lose a customer rather than cook an egg. My tacos weren't much better. They arrived cold, and the pork was extremely dry. Thankfully I had ordered a side of guacamole, because otherwise the pork would have been almost impossible to eat. Even with that, I eventually gave up. Mistakes happen in restaurants, and we understand that. What made this experience so disappointing was the kitchen's complete inflexibility and the manager's unwillingness to resolve what should have been several very simple problems. Unfortunately, instead of enjoying dinner, one of us barely ate and the other ended up with no meal at all. Will they see us again? Highly unlikely.
