About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for happy hour
  • Lively
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.

    Our reservation was right on time and great. I understand it was graduation weekend, but our server seemed very irritated and short with us. The food was excellent. Everything was great, but after being in the service industry for years, he didn’t make us always feel welcome. I’m sorry to say that and give a bad review.

    We ordered a bunch of appetizers so we could sample their seafood options: calamari, mussels, shrimp, seared tuna, oysters - and it was all very tasty. We are from the PNW so our expectations are quite high. The only disappointment was the shrimp - which did not seem as fresh as one would like, but it’s a long eay from the coast. The tuna was superb, and everything else seemed quite fresh. Our waiter (Marthew) was the best!

    Thank you for coming in Maggie! I'm glad you enjoyed! Sorry to hear about the peel & eats, they were just cooked that day so I'll share your feedback with the prep crew. Hope to have you back some time soon! Cheers, Chris - General Manager

    Our waiter was Jason and he did an excellent job. The entire staff worked seamlessly. The food was delicious. We also had a lovely booth facing the street with city view. It was a lovely evening experience.

    As always, we go to Jax for the oysters. The menu is slim but there is always something for everyone. The waitstaff hustle and get things going but do not hover.

    We were on our first date night in a while, and we had a lovely experience. We came in for Happy Hour (i.e.: cocktails and small plates), and our waiter was just as attentive as if we were sitting down to dinner. I love seafood, having grown up by the coast, and the gumbo was some of the best I've had in Colorado. The garlic fries had real oil-infused garlic drizzled over them, and the poke tacos were seriously our favorite dish of the night. We ordered the key lime tart, which was divine, and they even made us decaf coffee to go with our dessert! I don't remember the last time a restaurant did that for us. We will definitely be back, and we appreciate the time and courtesy that our waiter took with us.

    Shuck Yeah Kristina! Date night and fresh seafood, that's what Jax DOES! come back and have another date night soon! Cheers, Chris - General Manager
