Food Review: Fish House (Santa Barbara, CA)

FISH HOUSE IN SANTA BARBARA 

My first thought when I passed by this gorgeous restaurant was Pacey's restaurant in Capeside in the last episode of Dawsons' Creek. So chic yet filled with character.

This place is big and appropriate to have right by the ocean. =0)

Came here one weekend, and down the street we found this cozy "big" place.

Yelp had some good reviews and I liked that Yelp gave prices on certain items. After reading their reviews, we opted for take-out!

The drive from our hotel was about.... one minute. =0)


Sorry for the lack of food photos (or any pleasing ones), but we were hungry!

No plates, so we made do with our take-out boxes.



Food we ordered:

Ahi Poke .......................... $12.95
(drizzled in sesame soy dressing, with ripe avocado, cilantro, cucumber salad, crispy wontons)



Lobster Macaroni and Cheese .............. $12.95
(Fresh Maine Lobster and macaroni pasta blended in a three cheese sauce, topped with panko bread crumbs and baked golden brown)



Sesame Wonton Crusted Mahi Mahi ........... $24.95
(Hawaiian mahi mahi rolled in sesame seeds and crispy wonton, served with pineapple-fried rice and sauteed seasonal vegetables, topped with roasted red pepper beurre blanc)


Everything tasted fresh and flavourful! I couldn't have enjoyed it more than I did. This was my first time trying Ahi Poke and I fell in love! It was soft and melted like butter! Surprisingly, the lobster mac and cheese took third place. It's not hard to see that since we are by the ocean and fresh fish is right there!

Overall, I absolutely loved this restaurant and would go again and again!

5/5 stars

Price .............. $$$
