   We dine at Fish Bones each year when visiting central Florida. This year our visit included a birthday celebration for my wife. She was warmly greeted and congratulated by every member of the staff we came in contact with. As usual, the service was impeccable and the food excellent. We are never disappointed here. Each member of the staff is upbeat and appears to genuinely enjoy working here. This is one of our favorite restaurants anywhere.

   Tommy was an amazing waiter and had excellent customer service. His recommendations on wine on choices for dinner were impeccable. Will definitely be coming back as soon as possible.

   I know the reservation policy. We were running late due to an accident on the way. I called and informed them. No problem I was told by Jim. One hour later, no problem.

   Another home run at FishBones! We decided to have a 21st birthday family dinner for my at the beautiful outside terrace / bar and we must have hit the peak of the after work crowd. Wow, this place is popular, and for good reason. The atmosphere is energetic, with very nice high top tables and high bench seating bordering the terrace behind the bar. The whole outdoor terrace is a treat for the eyes. We were seated at a tall table with high bench and chair seating at the back end of the bar, gaving us a nice outdoor view and breeze. Lots of people standing, socializing, smiles everywhere around the bar area. Yes, it was loud, but to be expected if you hit the peak cocktail hour! Though we did not partake in the cocktails on the extensive bar menu, it was clear to see that everyone around us was enjoying their drinks amid the party type atmosphere. Amanda, our server was excellent, friendly, attentive. The food was delicious - We had the shrimp cocktails, trigger fish & chicken combo, chef's special of Cajun trigger fish with shrimp topping, two filet mignons, one with shrimp scampi as a chef's special. We all had the house salad. Fantastic food and service. FishBones continues to be out favorite special occasion place!

   Our server, Amanda Brooke was excellent. Friendly & knowledgeable. The drinks were good but the Sushi was a little off. We will be back as it is so close to home.

    1. I usually enjoy the triggerfish. However the only options were 1) the special with shrimp; 2) the combo with either shrimp, pork, chicken. I'm allergic to shrimp and would have liked an option for the special with something else - like perhaps crab meat. I was told that the only option was to order the special and just leave off the shrimp for the same price ($49). 2. I wound up ordering the salmon. The description was "Faroe Island King Salmon, cedar plank, parmesan red onion aioli." The ailoi was smothered on the top of the salmon and baked with it. What a way to ruin a good piece of salmon. Plus, it had a very sweet taste (the red onion, I guess). I spoke to the manager and she simply acknowledged my comments.
