“ We came in from Texas looking for a local hang out spot. Walking in Kyle took us in like his friends. He took care of every need we had from needing lotion, a heater, vape charger, literally ANYTHING. Def the best bartender we have ever had. They had Cody James playing some amazing music which just set the whole mood! We had the mozzarella triangles and oysters and both were perfection. Best Crush drink that we’ve had also. Can’t say enough great things about this place! ”
“ My husband and I along with my aunt stopped into Fishtails VB for a cocktail at the bar around noon. Met Kyle, the Bartender, who was quite welcoming and super friendly. I had the best loaded Bloody Mary!! Aunt and I shared an order of shrimp and grits that was totally delicious. Kyle gave us some tips on making the perfect mixed drinks. He was delightful! We thought about going back for dinner, but learned that Kyle would not be working during dinner. We went to an upscale restaurant a few streets down and we were disappointed. We regretted not going back to Fishtails. We do, however, plan to visit again and sincerely hope we have the pleasure of meeting up with Kyle again. ”
“ Staff was very friendly and accommodating - I asked for a seat closest to the water and they were able to give me the first available after a short wait. Very welcoming and considerate and had very knowledgeable answers to my menu questions. Food was amazing; blackened salmon was flavorful and the risotto.... so good! I also ordered the appetizer of mussels and the sauce was delicious ”
“ Wow! What a great local spot! The atmosphere is great, the servers were in the weeds from lunch rush but they helped each other bussing tables and seemed to handle it well even tho it was super busy for just the two of them. Alex managed to do a great job getting to me super fast and the cute bartender was really sweet too. I had the She Crab soup, fantastic flavor and a ton of crab meat. The tuna Tikka had just the right spice, I'm not a big fan of spicy and this was right at the threshold for me. Great flavor and cooked perfectly RARE. 10/10! You must go here if you're in the area! Great job FishTails! ”
“ Went for restaurant week and forgot to leave a review! Food and service ( Kyle ) were and are amazing! We will definitely be back to enjoy the patio when the weather gets warmer! French Toast Rolls for the WIN!!! ”
“ We were looking for a place to eat tonight, along the boardwalk, and fell upon fishtails! Decided to check it out and glad we did! They had live music playing, not sure if they have it every night, but they were really good! They have really great food, located right in the middle of the strip a hop and skip to Neptune, easy to get to! We got the watermelon Fresca and the whisky blast! Great drinks! We got the fish and chips, and the raw oysters, and the were both very good! The fish and chips is very tender and easy to eat, not too fried and loaded with breading!! Our server Kaylee, was really good, college student from VA Tech! She was very attentive and polite!! We highly recommend and we would be back!! ”
