Always a great meal but not this time food was limited and came to us under cooked bacon was fatty and limp my flounder looked like it was trenched in soup and shredded spinach never came the cheesy potatoes were all dried for a table of 5 no one finished their meal . Sordfish was way over priced for the flavor and amount you got . What happened to our buff fish I have lived here for 16 years and never experienced such a night it was inbassering for out of state guests
The Big Fish is under new management and IMO the quality of the food, service and atmosphere has deteriorated considerably. I’d like to request that the foodie do an update on his review, which was last done in 2017.
I would look forward to his assessment which is usually quite good. I’m sure there are plenty people that have been going to the big fish for a long time (Myself 25 years) that would look forward to a updated, trusted review from the Foodie.
Thanks for the reminder! I was remiss in not adjusting the BFRG reviews.
My favorite place to eat! Everything is wonderful and they have the best Scallops and french fries in the world, my opinion of course. The service is excellent and the drinks are great! No complaints at all!
I had a new experience the other day at the Big Fish Market, which as a year round resident I frequently shop at. The Manager on duty very clearly informed me that there was a new rule in place: one 1oz container of sauce is to be given with each take out order, regardless of order quantity. So if you are like me and use the Market to feed company your 2+ pounds of fried extra-large shrimp costing $40.00+ now comes with one container of sauce. I was told If you need more sauce, it is sold in the market. So to all of my fellow shoppers be prepared.
We have a dinner group that dines together weekly. We typically frequent Milford/Dover restaurants as that is where we live, but we decided to visit some Rehoboth restaurants off-season. My hubby & I have been to Big Fish several times a few years ago, but not at all in the last 3-4 years. We were underwhelmed. I have been touting their bruschetta as “amazing” for years, but this visit it was nothing special. Also, we each got the broiled seafood platter which we agreed was just okay. We will likely be back, at some point, but we’re certainly not in any hurry. Four of the six fellow diners echoed our opinion.
One of the best new york strips in town….oh and the seafood is good too. The Charcoal shrimp has a unique addicting flavor. I always get a few skewers of them first thing.
I’m always amazed at how fast the food comes out when I eat at the bar, literally in a couple of minutes most of the time.
We’ve dined here many times, but on several recent visits have experienced a notable decline in service. More than once, we’ve had a long waits between being seated and having somone appear to take drink orders, and then delivering drinks from the service bar to the table. On our latest visit, entrees arrived when we were no more than halfway through our salads. I can understand occasional lapses of this sort but these breakdowns in service are so prevalent that I’ll think twice before considering a return visit, the good food notwithstanding. By the way, all of these bad experiences occurred in the off-season when, one would think, service would be at its best and customers wouldn’t be pushed to dine and dash.
The food is outstanding. We’ve dined in many fine resturants from Maine to Key West and have not enjoyed our meal like we did here at Big Fish Grill. We started with the Blue Point Oysters which were very fresh and clean. I had the Big Fresh Cioppino and my wife had the Fresh Pan Seared Parmesan Mahi which was absolutely delicious! We certainly recommend this resturant.

COCUNUT CAKE
Try it, you will love it, I hate coconut and I adored this cake.
Meatball, all fish portions at Big Fish Grill are 8oz. The burgers are 10oz.
Just to clarify….
Must to our surprize when we showed up for dinner the place was less than half full ordered drinks then our meal. 15 min. later as we are finishing up the raw bar platter we ordered the waitress (Gina) comes up and tell me they are out of the entree I ordered. I can understand running out of an entree although they aren’t busy, but waiting until the time it’s served to let me know is not excusible. So I order something else knwoing it’s going to be 15 minutes at best before we get our main courses, ends up being about 25 minutes, no apologies, they forget the claw crackers and the sauce on the side, where after asking the second time I get. Yet again, no one thinks any thing is wrong. i’m fine witht heyoung servers, I realize they don’t get paid enough, but teach them some basics, if my entree had been reserved when I had wanted it, there wouldn’t have been the start of a dowslide to the evening.
My bf and I eat at big fish whenever we can. I Always get the baby seafood cakes with a amazing creamy seafood sauce and a side of nevas potatos. The pumpkin crab bisque is to die for and I have even bought it in quarts to work (at another resturaunt) as a treat for my employees. Always a great place to go for fun and great food. looking for a quite romantic night this is not the place for you. none the less this is our favorite seafood place at the beach
I have to admit that I’ve always been puzzled over the popularity of this place. Sure the food is consistent, however $21 for 4oz grilled tuna over a huge pile of mashed potatoes or $12 for a cheeseburger with fries, to me doesn’t represent good value. Add to that the irritated expressions on the servers face should you like to linger a bit pondering the menu while sipping a cocktail or bringing the cheque before offering dessert….Noisy, over priced, and pushy. Like I said I’m puzzled.
I love Big Fish because they understand that not everyone eats seafood and sometimes the non-seafoodies among us may want to eat out with our seafood-loving friends. I always know I will have a great meal at Big Fish, even if I don’t order anything that swims.
Used to be my favorite place at the beach to eat. The last few times we have been seated at the small tables by the kitchen where your fellow patrons are seated REALLYREALLY close to you. You can’t get out of your seat without knocking over their drinks with your coat… you can hear your neighbors chewing they are sitting so close. I think I’m going back to eating at the bar. Otherwise great atmosphere, bright, beachy and inviting. Unattended obnoxious kids running amok are barely noticeable here since the place is a hive of activity and noise, that’s not to say it doesn’t happen, the place is huge so it totally doesn’t bother me like when feral children run loose in a smaller more intimate establishment. Garlic mashers are great and I’ve never had a less than fantastic fish special. Huge portions of good food. The wait never bothers me here…there is plenty of room inside and out and room around the bars as well. I usually grab a few beers while I wait!
