Highly recommend Lionfish. Justin from the events team is fist class- unbelievably helpful, professional and great to work with. Our waitress Bailey was fantastic. The ceviche starter is superb. The sushi chef was able to create a platter based on our fish preferences and the other courses we ordered. Everything was truly delicious. Don’t skip out on the message in a bottle dessert! It was one of the best desserts I’ve ever had and I don’t even like ice cream that much. Service, atmosphere, and food are top notch.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Lionfish, a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Del Ray, Florida. From the moment I stepped foot into the restaurant, I was captivated by its elegant and contemporary ambiance. The sleek decor, coupled with warm lighting and comfortable seating, created a welcoming atmosphere that set the stage for an unforgettable culinary experience.

Had a great for brunch with our sever Luke. He recommended the lobster rolls and I want to say they were amazing. So sweet and buttery and freshly baked bread. At first they were very slow, took 25 minutes to get a drink. He kept forgetting everything and we were constantly reminding him of missing pieces. But again, this was during Delray art festival and they were super slammed. So I will let this go. He was friendly and gave great recommendations. Even tho he was late on every drinks, forgot drinks, etc. he was still high spirited and friendly l.Seems like they were understaffed. But we had a great time. The steak and eggs item was a mixture between great steak and overly oily potatoes and bland spinach. The same for the Maine lobster and chorizo Benedict- great item but the potatoes were just soooo oily.

Food is phenomenon. Spicy octopus, pork buns are a must-have. Fish and chips the best i had for years. Super tender and juicy fish and light fluffy batter. Lobster pasta to die for. Juicy lobster with perfectly cooked pancetta. Bravo to the chef. A great selection of wines , craft coctails, and all types of spirits. Service efficient , friendly, and informative. From the hostess to our bartender to their manager Charlie.

We had an average Valentine’s day dinner, but the food was great. Unfortunately, maybe with the holiday rush the timing of our food was out of order and the oysters had about half that were not edible. They did bring another half dozen that were what you would expect. The lionfish was okay, beautiful in presentation, but tasted like a fried cod. We enjoyed the surf and turf roll and salmon roll a lot. The octopus was spicey and had a nice kick!

Fantastic vibe, bit of Atlantic Ave scene spot. Reservations strongly recommended, but they do accept walk ins. Really good food served here.

Not what it use to be. Prices are high but food quality is definitely down. Had lobster pasta but for some reason pancetta was part of making it taste way too salty. Lobster and pancetta plus red type of sauce. Sorry not me ! Sushi rice was very dry and with no taste. Very disappointed. Will I visit them …. Yes for a drink at the bar but no food

Went last night with my girlfriend for her birthday, sat at the bar. We got the all star roll as an appetizer and it was great, you can tell the fish is fresh. We wanted the half dozen oysters as they were on the happy hour menu, we were told they only had a few orders left so they weren’t available for happy hour… that was a huge bummer as we looked forward to the oysters. Aside from that she had the yellow tail snapper and I had the spaghetti lobster homard. Both were fantastic albeit the snapper should come with some sort of starch as a side instead of arugula and blistered tomatoes. Gabe the bartender was excellent and made us some great drinks. Overall 9/10 as the menu is a little pricey but it was a great experience. Will most definitely be back and hopefully get those happy hour oysters!

It’s my birthday. I chose this restaurant out of curiosity and as a foodie, great food was #1. What was unexpected was the absolute courtesy and professionalism that came with outstanding food. Layton, the manager was warm, welcoming and gracious. Kiki served us smiling, delightful and really knew her menu. My husband and I order 3 of their specialty sushi rolls to share and it was plenty. Best sushi I ever had. Drinks were delicious. I had the “little naughty” and hubs had the “low rider.” Pricey…yes. Worth it…also yes. So glad we came here.
