    We have been to Red Fish twice before and had always had a great experience until this time. I will start with the positive. The service was good and the drinks were good. Fried Calamari was pretty good, and my daughter liked the Lobster Mac. All in all, the food was average at best as a whole. Considering the prices paid, that is not ok. Me and my wife ordered the Sea Bass, which was market price, and it was not good at all. It should always have a good sear and there really was no sear. Noodles were oversaturated with sauce, just not a good dish. My daughters Cesar salad was drenched with dressing so that was disappointing too. My sons kids fish tasted as if it was not fresh, very fish forward and it was pan fried, so that was disappointing as well. We were so looking forward to the meal and it was simply a let down. The server was kind, felt bad, and took one of the Sea Bass dishes and the Cesar off the ticket which was warranted and appreciated. Ultimately, It felt as if the kitchen was doing the minimum on a Monday and was not in the mood to put love into what they were doing that night. For our first night of vacation and a nice dinner out, it was a big let down and felt like a chain restaurant meal. We never leave bad reviews unless it is truly warranted but I felt the need to leave this one. Unfortunately, I am not sure we will be back

    Our family of 6 found Red Fish unremarkable except the wine selection. Nothing was terrible but nothing was awesome. For the price you can do better elsewhere.

    Jennifer was outstanding! She was attentive to the grandkids, plus to the adults. Scott was also great with the grandkids.

    Food was very good! We sat outside after the rain storm so it was just us. Our toddler got to run around/dance to the music and not bother anyone while we ate. Apps- Wedge salad was delicious, standard, fresh. Ahi Tuna was good - would try something different next time, seems like it was made and then refrigerated Dinner - brozino - excellent! Fresh and great flavor Ribs were great! Whole rack was a lot but great for take home Service - was good in the beginning. Then our server forgot about us for 30 minutes had to go inside to ask for service. Great wine menu! Overall would come back and try new items. Really appreciated having gluten free noted on the menu due to my allergy. Highly recommend this for your next stop in HHI

    Excellent food. Swankier than their website would lead you to believe but not pretentious. Good menu.

    Food and service was excellent. When I made the reservation I noted it was a "date." When we arrived there was hardly anyone there and the hostess chose a table right at the front door with people coming in. When I asked for another table she chose one by some kind of portable noisy air conditioner. When I asked again, we were shown to a lovely table in another room with table cloths. The others did not. Everything was great except for the hostess decisions. We had red snapper which was tasty. And of course their famous lobster mac and cheese

    Problem with the a/c apparently since there was a loud temp unit positioned in the dining room close to the piano. As luck would have it we were seated within 10ft and the noise was unpleasant to say the least. The unit had two flexible exhausts protruding from it so close to an adjacent table that you couldn’t walk between them without moving either exhausts or table. An elderly couple came in after we were seated and the hostess attempted to seat them at that table…..unbelievable! Incidentally our reservation was for 5:30 and at that time there were hardly any patrons there and ample open seating. That section should have been closed until repairs were finished. Service was fine, meal just ok, ambiance poor!
