    Stopped here for a late lunch while visiting my sister in Florida. We had eaten here before when I was in town on a previous visit. It was pretty busy as it is a very popular locals place for drinks and dining. We got seats at the counter on the boardwalk looking out over the harbor on the Indian River. I ordered the redfish with fried green tomatoes. It was good and the fish was quite fresh. The service was friendly. Sitting outside on a beautiful spring day is the best way to go. Will probably return next time I am in Florida.

    I got the crab and shrimp boil it was so good. My husband got a salad. My friend got a fish dinner and her husband also got the boil. The waitress was a little gruff at first then she warmed up to us. The ambiance was a little rustic. We watched a shuttle launch from the docks. It was amazing. I would 100% go back. My only take away is turn down the music inside it was too loud for conversation.

    This is one of my Uncle's favorite places to frequent. I know this because he checks in there quite often on Facebook. My sisters and I decided to swing by and grab lunch with him one day. It came as no surprise when we decided to dine at the Old Fish House. The place is a hole in the wall. We drove by it twice before finding it hidden behind a jewelry store. I'm glad we did though because it'd definitely a treasure worth finding. The view alone was worth it. We chose to sit outside and enjoy the breeze and scenery. The day was gorgeous and they had live entertainment. It seemed like the place to be for all the locals. We asked my Uncle what was good and he gave the generic answer "everything" which in reality was true. From fish tacos to cubans to burgers, the food was fresh and delicious. The staff was also prompt and courteous. Being that my Uncle was a regular I loved that they called him by his first name and joked around with him. If you're looking for a hidden gem with great food and atmosphere, The Old Fish House Bar & Grill is your spot!

    This is a more "local" fish house vibe, right on the river. They have a great selection of seafood and fresh oysters, along with your typical American fare. The vibe is clearly nautical with indoor and outdoor seating. Previous experiences here would have rendered 4-5 stars, but this last visit was not a very pleasant one. First of all boat parking was confusing/full so we ended up driving. Our server was just downright rude, like to the point it was uncomfortable. I ordered a salad which was completely drenched in way too much dressing (in photo). The grilled redfish and it came out broiled and was almost too salty to consume. I really liked going here when I was in the area, but I think this past time just turned me off for good.

    The Old Fish House Bar & Grill 5185 US Hwy. 1 South, Grant, FL, 32949 4.5 Stars Staring back in time, I couldn't believe where my random name generator was pointing me for grub today. When I was a young child, my grandfather lived on the Sebastian River down Micco way. It was hard to get there as a young lad due to the fact that there was absolutely nothing between 192 and Main Street, Micco. After Cox Truck stop, the demographics changed, and it terrified petit moi. To this day, I get the heebie-jeebies when heading toward Micco. However, the job prevails, so "once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more." The innocuous name blinking up at me was The Old Fish House Bar & Grill. A building affiliated with the fishing industry has been at this location for over 100 years. What began as Jorgensen's Fish House eventually morphed into the Treasure Coast Marina. Over the decades, many families have served as custodians for the fish house. Today, the restaurant looks like a dive packed with rednecks and power day drinkers; however, the food is OUTSTANDING. Ben is the waiter assigned to my section, and boy did I get lucky. Ben is prodigiously charming and knows the menu forwards, backwards, and I suspect upside down. When queried about the specials, his answers were forthright and knowledgeable. To skip ahead a bit, at the end of my "research" on the fare flung forth from yonder kitchen, I asked Ben to have the rest wrapped up, and instead of nonchalantly tossing a box on the table, took the items away, wrapped them, and brought them back. It's a good thing that Ben obviously doesn't suffer from chrematophobia as that immediately qualifies for a 50% tip! Well done, Ben. "Now, the food that Ben so eloquently wrapped for me was the remains of Redfish tacos and the Fisherman's Platter, both crispy. The fish tacos were fresh and succulent, served with the most delectable homemade Pico de Gallo and fresh guacamole I've had in a long time. The accompanying black beans and rice were seasoned and cooked to perfection. The flour tortillas, while I don't think they were made on-site, were warm, supple, and fresh... just the way they are supposed to be. The Fisherman's Platter was equally well-prepared as the fish tacos. Everything had just the right amount of coating and was fried to a golden brown. I particularly enjoyed the Mahi-Mahi, though the oysters and shrimp were equally mouthwatering. The red potatoes were tender and buttery, while the coleslaw had a hint of coconut, giving it a tropical twist. All in all, the meal was impressive and it just lends credence to the fact that many local dive places serve some seriously sensational food! The Big Boy says, 'If you want great old-timey seafood with down-home service, this is the place you're looking for.'"

I'm not an alcoholic and didn't expect 2 loud mouthed intoxicated, heavy set women to invite themselves into my conversation at my table. It's an obnoxious pirate costume event and a poorly managed business. Socializing is not possible in this atmosphere. I watched some elderly band who didn't play well and the singer had no voice. I thought maybe they were donating their time? Every song they played sounded just like the last song. Since everyone was too bombed to aim properly in the bathroom, they certainly didn't notice. The key issue is no one here gets a limit on alcohol consumption. It's a DUI hot spot. The riffraff are obviously regulars here. The food is awfully overpriced for what you get, the water is even worse, and nowhere near a full menu to order from. Waitress looked overworked and do not smile. A horror show on weekends. I know it's not a classy place like you get downtown in Melbourne, but the owner should be responsible when serving alcohol without any limits and asking big mouths to shut up so others can enjoy a conversation at their table. I know for a fact two individuals who left this bar completely intoxicated and one lost a leg, and the other lost a foot riding home drunk on Malabar Rd. Ask any cop about it. My scenic view is the backside of a gas station. so we split and rode south, Rosie's has a a gorgeous view of the river for less money I dumped on this dive. The patrons have good hygiene, and can spell hygiene too.

I suggest this place check their kitchen and double check they gurantee weren't the cause. Good luck.

I had my family in town and with a three year old we needed to stay close to home. The waitress was nice. Our martinis were good. We ordered spinach and artichoke dip which seemed to be missing the spinach and artichoke, just thick cheese. The chips were super greasy. We also ordered garlic bread which was good, large pieces filled with cheese and garlic. For our entrees two of us ordered fish and chips. The crust was super greasy, the fish was white and tender and a very generous portion. It was so large I only ate one French fry. My son and his wife ordered a Cesar salad with chicken. The lettuce was wilted and the chicken dry and burnt. They only took a few bites. We sat outside which was pleasant except for the sun blaring. They offered to roll down a shade which was nice. I'm hoping they try some new items. I know all about food costs so keeping a one paged menu is good but there needs to be some healthier choices that aren't greasy and overdone. I understand their Sunday brunch is good but I've never experienced it. I'll drive into Vero for better food until the menu improves.
