The Fish House: Reviews & Ratings

Jumbo king crab legs were only average size compared to other tables and very salty. The lobster tail was great. Asparagus was steamed completely plain so butter from the buns helped. The old fashioned drinks were great. Wasn't thrilled about the lobster bisque, it mainly was thick cream with very little lobster flavor, meat, or texture. The crab appetizer was good, like a deconstructed crab Rangoon. Only get it if you really like a lot of cream cheese.

My first time to the fish house it was excellent food. If you’re ever wondering if you should go to the Fishhouse, you should go yes, seafood is expensive but it sure was good. We ordered every kind of oyster. They had raw Rockefeller and grilled they were all excellent. We also had the stuffed salmon which was awesome.

Appetizers: seared tuna and crab turnover pastries. Excellent! Best seared tuna ever. Lobster bisque: good. Not the typical tomato base with sherry but still good. Drinks: mango mojito- very good! Stawberry lemon basin maryini - good. French 75 - decent. Grouper Oskar - very good. Halibut Florentine - excellent. Key lime pie - respectable. You'll need reservations. 530 was crowded.

I had chicken cesaer salad because I dont like seafood. Hubby had lobster bisque, Thai chilean sea bass, and Austin gratin potatoes. Everything tasted fine. Rolls were hot and delicious. Loud environment. Tables are kind of close together. Expensive, but as expected for a seafood restaurant. Waitress was friendly. Service was pretty fast.

Was staying in the Peoria area this week and wanted to enjoy some good seafood. Chose Fish House because of its rating / reviews and by what was on the menu. I arrived tonight not long after they opened at 16:00. A few other customers were already seated. I sat in the bar area at a table. I was greeted by Paul the bartender. I ordered the Crab Turnovers as my appetizer and grilled Chilean Sea Bass with Au gratin potatoes. I highly recommend everything I ordered. The food was great and the service was top notch. By the time I left it was pretty busy for a Thursday night. Definitely worth the 20 min drive from my hotel. I will be head back to Fish House the next time I am in the area.
