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.

We visited on a Wednesday evening for Steak and Lobster (at a great price). We went a little early in order to try their newly added Happy Hour and decided to sit at the bar. The drink choices are limited and the discount on appetizers is minimal, but there is something for everyone and a weak Happy Hour is still better than none (which was the case for a long time). The Steak and Lobster were both done perfectly and the waitress (barkeep), kept us supplied and happy. We will visit again.

The food was nice and warm and the server was excellent! The music was a bit loud but the server offered to turn it down, but it was a good era of music.
