"Eat your words" If that's on the menu at Joe Fish in N.Andover you can believe it will be a mouth watering experience you won't soon forget. My story starts 4 years ago, back to dating after being married for 25 years, Nervous and excited at the time. My date also same situation dating after 25 years. Joe fish was a first for both. So the night begins with a very nice smiling hostess, as you look around its an inviting atomosphere, lots to catch your eye; In no time our server was at our table. (Even though it was busy) Wanting to try one of there many special drinks, our server had recommended the drink of the day. Nothing less than wow. So we decided to go with his recommendation for our meal. We started with an array of oysters from all over the world (neither one of us had ever had oysters before), followed by garlic mussel appetizer, "Totally awesome". The oysters were fresh with a snappy cocktail, horseradish sauce and a splash of lemon and down they went. The mussels dripping in broth of garlic, scallions, and tomato. The best is the only way to describe them. Second drink, a house special martini. Special is the word. Smooth, light and just fruity enough. Now the main course I enjoyed the shrimp scampi. My date had the tuna special. (we shared) The scampi was just the perfect blend of garlic, scallion broth and other tasty ingredients. So fresh, you could almost hear the shrimp boat. Not the tuna, myself never having tuna steak before I was very excited to try it especially when I say it was superb. When I say it was comparable to the best filet mignon you have ever tasted its just the truth in fact my mouth is watering just thinking about it. With no room for desert, that was the perfect excuse to return in the future. Which we have many times since and we have yet to get the desert. And yes my date 4 years ago is still the man and our favorite place you got it Joe Fish. The food however is only part of the overall experience. The service makes this restaurant a complete most enjoyable dining delight. Leaving you looking forward to the next visit. Guess what! We highly recommend Joe Fish Enjoy! http://www.joefish.net/

I agree - Etsogo is awesome. But don't just enjoy the sushi. Everything they serve here is memorable and perfectly presented. Suggestions? Try the tempura, the curry dishes on the Malaysian section of the menu and the bento boxes, a true bargain for lunch or dinner. The place is a rising star on the Kearney Square dining scene and the owner Janet never forgets your name.

Fish Bones, Chelmsford, MA

Fish Bones is a local restaurant that serves some of the finest seafood dishes in the area. They may even be better than the greatly revered Legal Seafoods .
The quality and preparation we experienced on 2 separate occasions was beyond expectation.
The price was extremely reasonable, also.
However, on both visits to Fish Bones, we waited for one half hour to 45 minutes for our selections to be served. Once was at lunch and the other at dinner.
We would like the chef to know that the
preparation and quality of the seafood is superior; however, the time that it takes from ordering the food to having the food brought to the table is way too long. We hope that somehow that this is brought to Fish Bones' attention, as we have been reluctant to return.

Thank you,

Barbara Oberzut
