We continually say that we believe Blackfish is the best restaurant outside of center city and can go head to head with most any. The lady had the oysters - the lemon 'foam' on top, oysters in the shell but 'free' so that you can just slide them in right from the shell leaving the foam in tact, were fresh and delightful. She followed that with the wild mushroom ravioli. Toasted home panko breadcrumbs and delightful sauce, all rich with mushroom flavor was also wonderful. I had the scallop more or less ceviche-type appetizer with thin scallop and radish slices in a marvelous orange and citrus sauce, finely diced onion and cucumber and fresh herbs - it was the best appetizer I have had there and I love the smoke salmon and quail egg and the brussels sprout salad (don't laugh until you have one - they too are delicious). I had the duck breast. Butternut squash, some home-made cranberry relish, another puree of something that was rich and tasty along with a brown a-jus gravy. It was really good. I could only eat half of it - quite large, but wonderful flavors. Blackfish continues to be at the top of our favorites list! Not to be missed. G

Love this place! Servers are friendly and knowledgeable, food always excellent. Ambience is relatively quiet and maintains a comfortable welcoming feeling. Beet salad is the best, and their fish dishes always creative and delicious. We have dined here often and return knowing we will have a delicious dinner in a warm and inviting atmosphere!

We had the four course lobster tasting. As usual, every single dish was handcrafted with multiple interesting ingredients and layers of flavor. The chef is a genius. Every dish was fantastic. The service is friendly and wonderful.
