Reviews for Jax Fish House & Oyster Bar - LoDo in Denver, CO
This place was a great choice !!! Here's what was ordered: The Emersum Oysters (6) Calamari Grilled Shrimp Pasta Tuna sliders... turned into an entree A side of bacon fat cornbread The oysters were amazing. Everything was amazing really, even our serverwho convinced me to try the oysters with my fiance who I typically leave them to. Man were they a surprise! Such a good flavorand not chewy!!! The texture was the best part since usually it throws me off The calamari was great. I typically eat calamariplain without any sauce because I enjoy the main flavor, but the sauces were amazing. If you get this, mix the sauces aftertasting the two!! The tuna sliders turned entree, as suggested by our waiter, had three of the normal sliders (You typicallyget two as an appetizer) with fries. It was awesome. Do I have to keep saying everything was awesome? And then the bacon fatcornbread was a excellent side! Butter with it was smooth and sweet! 10/10 food 10/10 service Read more
Great seafood spot with a variety of dishes. I tried the wedge salad which was crispy and flavorful. The chowder is a big... portion and can easily be shared. And finally the lobster roll! The sauce is on the lighter side which was perfect. It alsocomes with a side of fries. Read more
Amazing food and great vibe. They have a full range of beers from local breweries. I had the Pilsner, it was amazing. Ordered a... crab cake, which was one lump and full of meat, paired very well with the sauce that came with it. Also had the Norwegiansalmon which would melt in your mouth. There is free wifi at the place and an accessible restroom. There is outdoor seatingtoo. While the place seemed a little tight for kids. There were families who had kids and we seated at the booth comfortably. Read more
Came in for happy hour and was not disappointed. The restaurant itself is long and skinny, with a bar down the middle of the... restaurant and tables on the surrounding walls. There is an extensive list of crafted cocktails, several with house made infusedliquors. Happy hour (3:30-5:00pm) includes cocktails starting at $6 and some $2 oysters. They offer oysters from both the Eastand West coasts, with most options available as a half dozen. These are definitely fresh, so be mindful of broken shell pieceswhen eating!! I found pieces of shells that I picked out of the oyster meat and that is the only reason this review isn’t a 5.The calamari, pictured here, is hands down the best I’ve had in a long time. While I love rings and tentacles, there were somany meaty pieces I initially mistook for French fries because they were so big. The sauce separates the “spicy” piece soyou don’t have to fully commit if you’re a wimp like me Our server was great and I did not feel rushed. Overall, I enjoyedmy experience and look forward to coming for a full meal. Read more
We just went here for the first time for Valentines day. It was absolutely PHENOMENAL. I had the cucumber infused vodka drink... and it was incredible, and well priced. Then we got the pre-set Valentine's day menu, and every single thing was amazing. Wecleared our plates all four courses, and for just $75 for four courses, it was a wonderful value. For the first course we triedboth the cold and the hot oysters. Both were incredible. For the second course we both got the salt and pepper prawns. I hadnever had prawns and didn't know how I would feel about them, but they were delicious. The entrée was the pan-seared snapperthat came with clams and mashed potatoes. The clams, the fish, and the sides were all amazing and cooked perfectly. Finally, weended the night with a chocolate strawberry cheesecake that had delicious honeycombs as an accent and a lovely strawberry sauce,topped off with a chocolate covered strawberry. I could not have asked for a better Valentine's day meal. Thank you! We will beback to try all of the incredible options on the main menu. Read more

INCREDIBLE FOOD. Everything was cooked perfectly, seasoned amazingly. Best gumbo I've had outside New Orleans. Amazing... atmosphere and strong drinks. Great for a date night for a seafood lover! (But my partner had the beef burger and said it wasone of the best he's ever had). Read more
I've been to this restaurant a couple times and it never dissapoints. The service is fast, always friendly with jokes. The food... is fresh, tasty, full of flavours and the vast selection of drinks its over the top. They make the drinks the way they areintended no more ice or trying to save liquour. The Happy Hour is the best time to eat oyster!! 100%Recommend this place if youlove seafood <3 Read more
