Joe Fish Seafood - North Reading

I absolutely love their appetizers! They have some really creative menu items, like the disassembled crab Rangoon dip. It's not only fun to eat, but also perfect for sharing. I also tried the ahi tuna club sandwich, which was quite unique—I’ve never seen ahi tuna served in a sandwich before. It was surprisingly good, with a fantastic flavor that wasn't fishy at all, and the tuna was cut into a nice, thick slice. I do think it could benefit from some spicy mayo or dressing, as the sandwich was a bit dry and ketchup just doesn’t pair well with ahi tuna. Overall, it's a wonderful spot for lunch!

I also requested utensils through the app but didn't receive any—no utensils or even a napkin. It was strange because the restaurant was quite empty at the time, so there was plenty of opportunity for them to get the order right. If they had paid more attention to the details, I would have likely become a repeat customer. I may have lost a few dollars because of the missing fries, but their lack of attention makes me concerned about other aspects, like the freshness and expiration dates of their ingredients. Overall, it wasn’t a good impression.

The food arrived within 5 minutes, which made sense since there was only one active table, and the other two groups had already finished their meals. The 5 oz small portion was decent, definitely more generous than the lobster roll I had recently in Las Vegas. The fries were crispy and the coleslaw had just the right amount of tanginess. The lobster fell out of the roll, which was cut deep (not shallow)—both positives! While my taste buds might have appreciated a bit more butter, my arteries are probably thankful for it. Service was good, and the food was satisfactory. However, the lobster roll could have used a bit more flavor. On a side note, they offer a seasonal pumpkin spice version, which I was too hesitant to try. Overall, this place is a good option if you're in the area for work and someone else is picking up the bill.

This restaurant has great food! We have visited this place 3-4 times so far and it has been wonderful. The wait staff is nice and the restaurant is clean. The lobster bisque was delicious! The tuna poke is delicious for an appetizer and I love the haddock maria as an entree!

I wanted more from Mr. Fish. He had high hopes built, but they fell short due to not taking that extra step to perfect a lobster roll. I want to preface that I went out for a work lunch so price was no worry, if I was here on my own the prices in my eyes are high. Lobster roll prices were around $28 for a small, $50 something for a medium YIKES, and $75 for a large?! The server was great and gave us a heads when we initially said medium lobster rolls. There was a lot of meat in the small that filled me just fine. The vibe there was a bit dark for a mid day lunch, and the booths i found tight and I'd like to think I don't take up a ton of room (on a good day). I'm a lobster roll fiend so gave it a shot. The bun was good, nice and toasty how I like it. Meat was really fresh actually and there was a good amount of it. The issue was there was nothing on it no seasoning, no Mayo, just meat. For me I need a little something, something ya know? And then the lettuce I could've done without it... it tasted old. Coleslaw tho... LIT! Idk if I'd go back on my own accord or budget, it didn't thrill me and wasn't a cool vibe or anything, but if works paying, sure!
