Jax Fish House & Oyster Bar - Fort Collins
Price: Moderate•Seafood•4.8(2,451)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.Mishawaka Amphitheatre Restaurant
Price: Moderate•American•4.8(730)The Mishawaka Amphitheatre boasts a full-service restaurant open Thursday-Monday. Dine on our scenic deck while observing the big horn sheep on the canyon hillside, or opt for our indoor seating, which features expansive bay windows for the same river and wildlife vistas. Our spotlighted Craft Micro Brewery, Odell Brewery from Fort Collins, CO, partners with us to feature the exclusive Mishawaka Ale. In addition to this, we offer a comprehensive bar selection, including a variety of craft beers, wines, and spirits.
PLEASE NOTE that reserving an outdoor spot guarantees a table outside but does not guarantee a table by the riverside. We offer a 10-minute grace period for reservations. Your party will be seated only when all members are present, due to our hour and a half limit on table occupancy. Should inclement weather arise, we cannot guarantee outdoor seating at the time of your reservation.
Our establishment is cashless. Kindly ensure you bring a debit or credit card.
