"My wife and I have dined at The Fishery since 2000. We loved the restaurant when the parents owned it and we know throughout that time The Fishery has cycled through several chefs. Being a predominately a fish restaurant, white wine is a staple. In the past, The Fishery feature different brands of Sauvignon Blanc from multiple countries including from Australia or New Zealand which are brighter, crisper and fruitier than the American and French Sauvignon Blanc's the restaurant only offers now why? We ate the Scallop Crudo for our appetizer which was our only excellent dish. The artichoke crab pasta was overwhelmed by the artichoke which dominated the flavor and drowned out all other flavors. The Shrimp Curry with rice did not have much curry sauce and the dish was NOT flavorful and dry. We do not mind paying a premium for both the experience and the food, but this last visit was not what we have experienced in the past."

A little too heavy on the batter on the F&C. Black cod was very good. VERY pricey.

The service was excellent and the food was delicious. The only issue was that the portions seemed a bit small for the price of each dish.
Eric
This is a fantastic seafood restaurant! The grilled oysters were a bit small, but everything else was amazing! I especially enjoyed the albacore belly parmigiana and the halibut fish and chips. My husband really enjoyed the aguachile as well.

Our meal was absolutely delicious!!!! The salad we started with was super fresh with a lovely dressing. The halibut was fresh and cooked to perfection! Our server was super friendly and competent. All in all, a wonderful dinner and dining experience! View menu

It's a great spot for fish in SD, and it's definitely a great neighborhood gem. The unique menu has dishes you won't find anywhere else. Unfortunately, the service is never very good. It seems like servers have too many tables. Food arrives before drinks, and orders have been wrong. I will be going back; I just wish the service was better at this price point.

This was my second visit to this restaurant, and both times I brought guests from out of town. On both occasions, despite having a reservation, we had to wait 30-45 minutes for our table. They tried to make up for it by giving us free drinks and appetizers, but this was the second time this has happened. Our entrees took 45 minutes to come out as well. The food is good, but the service does not match the price. We encountered chipped plates and our bottle of wine was not put on ice. I would like to bring more visitors here in the future, but I am not sure if we will anytime soon. Hopefully, they can improve their service soon.
