What made you come here as opposed to some place else?
I was looking for a low key, intimate, quiet venue. After doing
some research I saw that Fish Tag kept coming up on several lists. Dug a little bit further and decided to take the plunge and bring my talents to Fish Tag. Seafood, never been before, AND I got to take someone who's very special to me. Triple win if you ask me.
Did all your research pay off?
I'd say it did. The venue was everything I was looking for and
expecting. Quiet, visually appealing (exposed brick!...can't go wrong with that), pleasant wait staff, and above
everything else I thought the food was pretty good too.
You say you thought it was good...what about your date?
She enjoyed the food but definitely not as much as I did.
Something to keep in mind about this place is that their seafood items
are VERY FRESH (which can be a good thing...at least to me it is)! Meaning, if you're not into
fishy taste and textures you may wanna avoid here and go to a
more generic seafood restaurant.
Got it...so what did you all get?
To start the Grilled Prawn and Spicy Chilies Bruschetta.
VERY TASTY! For
entrees we got the:
- Grilled Striped Bass (she) - fresh bass with a layer of crispy skin on the top, sitting on a bed of rapini, oyster mushrooms, tomatoes confit, and garlic puree
- and the Grilled Swordfish
and Greek Sausage (me) - plump swordfish with 2 strips of Greek sausage, loukaniko, grilled kale, middle eastern spiced bulgur salad
And everything was washed down with 2 glasses of red wine. Overall, a very satisfying meal.
Anything else I should know about?
Surprisingly they have a huge list of wine and beers. All
separated by taste to help those who may not necessarily be fluent in
the languages of wine and beer. Lastly, the portions are not that big
which may actually be a good thing. However, if you're someone with a
rather large appetite you may wanna grab a quick snack before coming
here.
