Made reservation for 7:15 pm for 4 people. We arrived 10 minutes early and sat in the waiting area. Would have been nice to have someone come and ask if we would like drinks while waiting. We didn't get to a table until 7:45 pm. What is the point of having a reservation that needed a credit card to make the reservation? If you are 15 minutes late they charge $25 / person. Love that food was hot when it arrived and they make sure that everyone at the table is served at the same time, even for larger parties. Overall, food, drinks and service were great. Would definitely go again.

They should not have run out of menu items at 7:00, no Sea Bass or lobster. Two of us opted for the prime rib which was not Prme, couldn’t chew any more. Left a good amount for the chef’s dog. Stephanie our waitress was top notch.

Needed reservations for dinner on Saturday at The Detroit Fish House. Our server was Jenny and she was great! Very helpful with food choices and was very busy but keep everything rolling. I had one of the specials, Ono (not sure if I spelled that right) and it was just okay. Not a lot of taste and it came with a pineapple sauce over the fish and it was really non-existent. The risotto was very good that came along with it. Te Detroit Fish House salad was excellent. My husband had one of the other specials, Durod and asked for it blackened and it loved it! The lobster tail was very good as well. We were all satisfied with our meals so we had to pass on dessert. Looking forward to going back - great service.

The food was great but hands down the service made this a 5 star experience. They had 8 staff members come out at once so everyone in our party was presented with their meal at the exact same time. Also warm towels were provided after the meal. Our waitperson Jenny was very personable and took excellent care of us all evening.

I had scallops and they were perhaps the best I have eaten in an amazingly light but flavorful sauce ( and I have dined out in number of countries lot in my 74 years). My husband had lobster tail and king crab and raved about it as well. the calamari appetizer , bread and soup and salad are also fresh, delicious a in just the right amount. Our server Jaimie was knowledgeable, gracious and attentive without hovering. It's a little on the pricey side but worth every penny. Will definitely go back!

The food was very good, as was the service. My big complaint was I had a "10% discount off card holders FOOD BILL". For the four of us, my total bill with drinks, appetizers and side upgrades (which all of us managed to pick?), came to over $200. The discount total on my food bill was $4.80??!!?? I was told the 10$ off was only good for my meal, even though the card says "FOOD BILL". That's just total misrepresentation!!

I enjoyed the ambiance. It was a great dinning experience. My wife and I could actually hear each other as the noise level was moderate. The service was beyond excellent. The waiter was a true professional and new a lot about the dishes on the menu. We had delicious calamari and both of us had fish that was cooked just right. I am going to make this one of my favorite restaurants.
