    Definitely not our normal experience here especially for a special Fathers Day. First cup of chowder had a hair in it upon pouring it table side. The snapper was very bland without any flavor. The service was the worst experienced there. Took us about 2.5 hr for a four top.

    We're long-time fans of Passion Fish, and the food and service is usually excellent. Our most recent visit was an exception. Service was not good, certainly not up to the usual standard. The food for the most part was good, with the exception of the Pan Fried Flounder, which was fried to an inedible crisp. I tried to bring it to the server's attention but they couldn't be bothered. I ate what little I could, paid the $58 Market Price for that entree, and left hoping for better luck next time. I understand why prices had to go up in recent years, but Covid is now in the rear view mirror, yet prices continue to climb, and standards seem to be in a steady decline. With tip we spent about $420 for four diners, (3 drinkers). It should have been better. We'll be back, and I hope for a better experience.

    We had a wonderful birthday celebration at Passionfish. The food was very good. We had roasted oysters, delicious gluten free crab cakes and the peanut crusted halibut. Our sides were the sweet potato fries and asparagus. And for dessert the crème brûlée. Our server was very attentive refilling our wine and water. We will be back.
