Price: Moderate•Seafood•4.7(2,795)We don't take ourselves too seriously at Jax Fish House. Two things we do take seriously? The freshness and sustainability of our seafood.

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.

- KKatherineDenver / Colorado •2 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoBramble and Hare is the beautiful and elegant restaurant of the Black Cat farm. We were celebrating an anniversary, and were seated at a lovely, intimate table tucked away in its own space. The restaurant is quiet, the service was extremely attentive, the waiter was knowledgable and friendly, and the food delicious. The menu is prix fixe of $75 for three very generous courses (none of those golf ball size portions one finds in many of the other "fine dining" restaurants). Perhaps this is because Bramble and Hare is truly farm to table, eliminating the "middle man" in food service. The menu itself is not extensive, as it is based on the farm's output of the time, but each of our dishes was distinctive. In celebration of our anniversary, we were given champagne, a chocolate dessert treat, truffles to take home, and a card signed by the staff. Now that's what I call special treatment, and a delightful evening.More infoBramble & HarePrice: Very Expensive• Farm-to-table• Boulder•4.7
