Editorial Review for Bonefish Grill – by Rick Munarriz
In Short
You won't find the overdone raw bar nautical theme here. Instead, Bonefish leans liberally on the playbook of its parent company, Outback Steakhouse, to provide earthy yet squeaky-clean décor. Polished hardwood floors. Softly painted walls free of fisherman paraphernalia. Linen tablecloths. You may not even realize that it's a seafood joint until you open the menu. There you'll find clever twists on the fishy like pistachio and parmesan crusted rainbow trout and coconut-battered shrimp.

Insider Tips
When To GoLike its parent company's flagship Outback concept, Bonefish is a dinner only restaurant. In other words, arrive early to satisfy your weekend hunger pangs or prepare to wait.
Know Before You GoBringing along a landlubber that hates seafood? No problem. The eatery offers a grilled section with a half-dozen dishes featuring steaks, chicken, and pork chops.

I don't know why I haven't eaten here sooner. I was absolutely delighted with this restaurant and I'm picky about fish in a restaurant. What brought me here was a coupon for a free appetizer and I'm glad I went to try this place. My husband and I both had the corn chowder with crab, which was absolutely decadent. Perfect creamy consistency enveloped tender pieces of potato and corn with the right amount of crab. I ordered the swordfish special with spinach and creamy blue cheese with wonderful sauteed vegetables and delicious au gratin potatoes. My husband had salmon oscar, which is salmon topped with asparagus and lump crab. The bread was served hot with pesto and olive oil. We did not have dessert because we had movie plans, but overall we were very pleased. We waited an hour to sit down and it was worth it. P.S. while we waited for our table, I had a mai tai which was one of the best I've had in years. They take reservations and I highly recommend it. The next time I come here I will call ahead.
Pros: drinks at bar, corn chowder, nice menu selection
Cons: noisy, long wait without a reservation
