Fishbar is wunderbar! Hands down one of my favorite seafood restaurants in the city.
Greeted by friendly smiles, we were seated at the bar while we waited for a table by the window to open up.
The drink menu didn't disappoint.
* Shrimp Cocktail Caesar - Perfectly spicy with a gigantic shrimp.
* Octopussy - Hah, clever. Oysters and vodka... can't go wrong. =)
We ordered a few items:
* Oysters..of course!
The variable oyster menu is written on a chalkboard at the front.
About $3 bucks a pop.
I don't think I'll ever step foot into Rodney's again.
Great selection of Canadian oysters. We got a mixed platter of oyster goodness.
* Grilled Calamari ($9)
With a yummy tomato paste, capers and lemon.
Delicious! The calamari was so fresh and a bit chewy but springy.
Probably some of the best calamari I've had.
* Pei mussels ($8)
Bits of chorizo, smothered in fresh tomato sauce.
Piping hot and not too heavy.
I wanted the lemon tart for dessert....but they were sold out. =(
As an alternative, I had the strawberry shortcake with white chocolate mousse and strawberry mint salsa ($8).
If you like your shortcake light and fluffy...this one isn't.
It's much more dense with the biscuit and it's a heavier mouse.
It's a romantic venue with fantastic seafood!
The service was great and I had such a nice time here!
I heart Fishbar! =)
