About this restaurant

  • Great for happy hour
  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
We don't take ourselves too seriously at Jax Fish House. Two things we do take seriously? The freshness and sustainability of our seafood. You know fresh fish when you see, smell, and taste it-and thanks to modern delivery technology, we bring in that freshy-fresh seven days a week. Sustainability is a little more complicated. Not all commercial fisheries are created equal. That's why we work closely with our suppliers and science-based organizations to ensure that every single thing we serve is responsibly sourced. We consider the stocks of the species we source to prevent overfishing and we work with suppliers who harvest in ways that have minimal impacts on marine environments.

    We enjoyed our meal at JAX. The food was very good, we split one meal which they split for us in the kitchen, including the salad. The service was excellent. Overall a very pleasant meal!

    Wonderful entrees, but super overpriced. The chef is amazing. We went on a Monday (Happy Hour all evening) which is really the best option considering the prices. The apps were great as well as the entrees. Just the right portion size on entrees, so you don’t feel stuffed and gross. I rarely order dessert, but we had the Gelato and the chocolate cake. Great for special occasions! I am not a fish lover but my husband and son are. I really only like the fish at Jax because the seafood is so fresh.

    Jax always provides good food and excellent service. Carolyn and her helper were very attentive and added to our meal. The dessert for our daughter’s birthday was an extra bonus! In our opinion, the calamari presented as, mainly, fried breading crumbs and a very small portion of calamari for 3 people.
    Jax Fish House & Oyster Bar - GlendaleResponded on June 23, 2025
    Thank you so much for your kind words and for celebrating your daughter’s birthday with us at Jax! We’re thrilled to hear that Caroline and her helper helped make your experience special, and that you enjoyed the food and service overall. We truly appreciate your feedback about the calamari and will be sharing it with our kitchen team for review. Your insights help us improve, and we hope to welcome you back soon for another great meal! Cheers!

    So disappointing! We have been to Jax in Glendale before and it was always good. We booked a table for six for our daughter's birthday. It did not go well. Two of the six drinks ordered were made incorrectly: a margarita instead of a paloma and a tequila and soda instead of a gin and tonic. ?? The explanation for what went wrong was sketchy. Salmon ordered medium (as suggested) came out nearly raw and had to be re-done - leaving one of our party waiting while the rest ate. The crab cacio e pepe was tasteless with watery "sauce." The hushpuppies were hard and dry, and the "smoked bacon" cornbread lacked bacon (or any indication on the menu how bacon was included/involved). The crushed pineapple tart was sickly sweet. The lobster/shrimp rolls, crab cake, BLT salad, mussels, and key lime tarts were all fine, but nothing to write home about. The only real winner we ordered was a tray of oysters. On our way out, my husband asked to speak to the manager about the problems with the drinks, salmon, and crab pasta. The manager apologized but offered only his name "to make sure our experience will be great" (or something to that effect) when we return. No offer to comp even part of this expensive meal. We won't be going back.

    We sat at the bar and received almost no service. We asked for everything we needed and had to wait for that too. Empty water, empty wine. There were 4 bartenders!

    We sat on the rooftop patio on a Friday night, where they have live music from 6 to 8. It was really great! They had the shades down so the sun was not coming in much. Had good food - crab cheese wonton dip, pan seared halibut, and blue crab cacio e pepe.

    Jax in Glendale has been a favorite for a long time. But a change in management has not been a good change, Maybe one or two of the old staff are present and the atmosphere seemed strained. In most restaurants I expect a visit from the manager, but not now. Hope they can get back to good.
    Jax Fish House & Oyster Bar - GlendaleResponded 2 days ago
    Thank you for being a loyal guest and for sharing your honest feedback. We truly value your continued support over the years and are sorry to hear that your recent experience didn’t reflect the warm, welcoming atmosphere you’ve come to expect from Jax Glendale. Transitions in management can be challenging, and we’re actively working to ensure that the heart of what makes Jax special remains strong—our hospitality, our team, and the overall guest experience. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope you'll give us another chance to show you the kind of visit you've come to love.

    Rooftop dining. Large party with children made it a little noisy. Cocktails were just okay-though we didn't complain. Caesar salad was okay, but stalk of romaine included-a little odd and uneatable of course. The scallops were delicious, but the halibut slightly overdone. My bad we didn't complain. Additionally, taken by surprise by not only a service fee but also an improvement fee and then tax as well. Got a little pricey.

    Richard Thank you for your review. I am sorry that the children near by ruined your experience. Thank you for your feedback on the food. I will share this with the Chef as we are always looking to improve and strive to be the best. We hope you join us again. Cheers Matt Myslivy Jax Fish House and Oyster Bar
