• Seafood • Colorado Springs
Booked 26 times today
We don't take ourselves too seriously at Jax Fish House. Two things we do take seriously? The freshness and sustainability of our seafood. You know fresh fish when you see, smell, and taste it-and thanks to modern delivery technology, we bring in that freshy-fresh seven days a week. Sustainability is a little more complicated. Not all commercial fisheries are created equal. That's why we work closely with our suppliers and science-based organizations to ensure that every single thing we serve is responsibly sourced. We consider the stocks of the species we source to prevent overfishing and we work with suppliers who harvest in ways that have minimal impacts on marine environments.

    Wow - so happy to try this gem of a restaurant. We were greeted with kindness. Parking is easy with the garage just behind the restaurant. A party of 12...Tom masterfully took care of our every want! The Food: everyone raved about their dish - there was something for everyone. Tom made sure to have enough bread for this crowd - the assortment was delicious. The salmon was perfect. The Moscato was devine. The Pizza was excellent. The Service: Tom catered to our every want. He was magnificent. We took our time and savored our dishes. We were never rushed. We were pleasantly surprised to not have an automatic tip calculated for our group which left us to leave a generous thank you and greater amount for the wonderful service. Thank you for helping us make memories to last a lifetime. The Ambiance: an intimate dining experience. Not too big not too small, it was Goldilocks 'just right'. About $62/pp but we had a few drinks, a bottle of wine and a few lobster entrees. We will be back to experience more of the menu. Thank for every little thing y'all did to make such a memorable evening.

    We enjoyed the atmosphere, the romantic lighting, the music playing, and the smaller scale of the dining area which gave it a very peaceful vibe. The service from Carlos and all the staff is great, so friendly and ready to accommodate anything you need. You can tell they really care about your experience while dining. The food was delicious and they had an impressive variety of specials to choose from along with a nice menu to choose from. We brought our 6 year old with us and they happily offered to prepare kid friendly options for him. The Pinot noir I ordered was really good too.
