Not a bad place to get a quick dinner though my shrimp could be peeled back a little bit more towards the end of the tail and also pooper scooper out the middle.
Fish tacos with RedFish were amazing. What a treat and the atmosphere and marina activity was fun to watch.
Omg. I went for lunch today and had the best grilled fish sandwich. It was triple tail which I never heard of but it was great. I love looking at the river and whole friendliness of the place Dee was the bartender and she was very knowledgeable. Had a great lunch
Ordered fried oyster basket. They were good. Small but good. Slaw is homemade. My husband got chicken tortellini and a salad. His meal was really better than mine. Service was good. Server had a very nice smile. Sad that lunch with tip was $60. We don't eat out much anymore. But overall good.
Went and had lunch today our first time there the food was very good, the service was fair. Our only complaint was a plastic fork and knife, and one tiny paper plate that went flying off the table because it was very windy. We would've liked to have plastic plates and silverware.
A nice gem in the Grant area. My usual spot for fish is in Eau Gallie, but this time I wanted to try something new and closer to home. The Old Fish House has been around for a while and I have had many recommendations to come. I opted to sit outside near the boat deck. The weather was nice with a slight breeze and the perfect seating to watch the fish come up. For starters we ordered the conch fritters which is always a must for me when dining at a seafood restaurant. They came out hot with nice fluffy texture and paired with a tangy remoulade sauce. Blackened Mahi was my choice for the entree and chose veggies for my sides... I'm was trying to offset the fried appetizer. LOL. The Mahi was seasoned well, but had a slight fishier taste than what I am used to having. The potatoes were my favorite and the zucchini slices could have been cooked more and maybe even sautéed. Their sandwich options looked really good so I might have to make another trip and try one of them.
The Old Fish House Bar & Grill 5185 US Hwy. 1 South, Grant, FL, 32949 4.5 Stars Staring back in time, I couldn't believe where my random name generator was pointing me for grub today. When I was a young child, my grandfather lived on the Sebastian River down Micco way. It was hard to get there as a young lad due to the fact that there was absolutely nothing between 192 and Main Street, Micco. After Cox Truck stop, the demographics changed, and it terrified petit moi. To this day, I get the heebie-jeebies when heading toward Micco. However, the job prevails, so "once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more." The innocuous name blinking up at me was The Old Fish House Bar & Grill. A building affiliated with the fishing industry has been at this location for over 100 years. What began as Jorgensen's Fish House eventually morphed into the Treasure Coast Marina. Over the decades, many families have served as custodians for the fish house. Today, the restaurant looks like a dive packed with rednecks and power day drinkers; however, the food is OUTSTANDING. Ben is the waiter assigned to my section, and boy did I get lucky. Ben is prodigiously charming and knows the menu forwards, backwards, and I suspect upside down. When queried about the specials, his answers were forthright and knowledgeable. To skip ahead a bit, at the end of my "research" on the fare flung forth from yonder kitchen, I asked Ben to have the rest wrapped up, and instead of nonchalantly tossing a box on the table, took the items away, wrapped them, and brought them back. It's a good thing that Ben obviously doesn't suffer from chrematophobia as that immediately qualifies for a 50% tip! Well done, Ben. "Now, the food that Ben so eloquently wrapped for me was the remains of Redfish tacos and the Fisherman's Platter, both crispy. The fish tacos were fresh and succulent, served with the most delectable homemade Pico de Gallo and fresh guacamole I've had in a long time. The accompanying black beans and rice were seasoned and cooked to perfection. The flour tortillas, while I don't think they were made on-site, were warm, supple, and fresh... just the way they are supposed to be. The Fisherman's Platter was equally well-prepared as the fish tacos. Everything had just the right amount of coating and was fried to a golden brown. I particularly enjoyed the Mahi-Mahi, though the oysters and shrimp were equally mouthwatering. The red potatoes were tender and buttery, while the coleslaw had a hint of coconut, giving it a tropical twist. All in all, the meal was impressive and it just lends credence to the fact that many local dive places serve some seriously sensational food! The Big Boy says, 'If you want great old-timey seafood with down-home service, this is the place you're looking for.'"
