Oh my lord!! We had the night of our lives! Jeff is the most amazing captain! He led his service team to provide us the most amazing experience! The food was better than sex! The drinks were crafted with love! After dinner Jeff gave us a first class tour of the 40,000 sq ft restaurant and museum! We then went to the bar where Ruby and Danny continued to treat us like royalty! Ruby even called a personal friend to drive us home safely! We are going back this evening! Last night was AMAZING! Here is to Arnaud’s! Jeff! Ruby! Danny! And the entire staff! What a team and what an experience! SALUTE!

My husband won’t go anywhere else for red fish! I had the LA Cobb salad with shrimp and crab and it was the perfect light supper. Service was great and nice ambience, but it is a little noisy. I highly recommend Red Fish Grill!

Very good food! Big servings! Loved the rabbit dish even though I could not eat it all! Other parties had lasagna that was individually served in a big pan for each. So close to the Orpheum theater which we attended thst evening. All so very convenient snd good. Plenty of time for everything.
