Jax Fish House & Oyster Bar Menu – Boulder, CO

Type : Seafood restaurant

Location : Boulder, CO

We don’t take ourselves too seriously at Jax Fish House. Two things we do take seriously? The freshness and sustainability of our seafood. You know fresh fish when you see, smell, and taste it—and thanks to modern delivery technology, we bring in that freshy-fresh seven days a week.

Sustainability is a little more complicated. Not all commercial fisheries are created equal. That’s why we work closely with our suppliers and science-based organizations to ensure that every single thing we serve is responsibly sourced. We consider the stocks of the species we source to prevent overfishing and we work with suppliers who harvest in ways that have minimal impacts on marine environments.

Upscale chain serving gourmet seafood dishes & creative cocktails in a relaxed, stylish setting. Based on 771 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 4.6 stars. Price $$$

Jeremy Lesser
Had a great experience here! Food was fantastic, service good and the atmosphere was very nice on a summer Sunday evening. Not a cheap meal but a good time!

Holly Bees
We really had the best best date night here. The service was flawless, fast, friendly, attentive, and correct. Everything we ate was terrific! Highlights were the oysters (plump and fresh), wedge salad (ice cold and flavorful), and bread and butter (sweet and salty in the best best ways). Cocktails were excellent, I like a really specific martini and they nailed it. Lively space but not too packed in. I wanted to try every single thing on the menu. Just go, this experience was a perfect 10.

Babs Sheng
We just randomly decided to pop in for hh after a little shopping on Pearl st.

Dave B
Menu selection was great, but execution was poor. Many people at our table complained about how salty their food was, and my dish was undercooked except for the fish, which was done perfectly.

Brayden Ainzuain
Very cozy dining area and bar. Tons of people showed up for happy hour and there was a bit of a vibe.

Brian Gunnels (Dogcatcher32)
Best seafood around. It’s the only place to get your fresh oysters!

Nomia
We ate here in July, sitting inside to enjoy the fun atmosphere and decor. We have eaten at the bar before as well, and enjoyed that experience too. Food is always delicious and fresh at Jax! They have great happy hour drinks, and the service is fabulous and professional. Highly recommend when you’re in Boulder!

Lauren Hughes
The best avocado toast I have ever had. This is one of my favorite happy hours around. We recently went for Easter brunch with my family. They have an amazing kids meal menu too. My children ordered 3 orders of donuts and their meals. Everything was amazing.

Arnold Sanchez
Solid experience. Sat at the bar. Oysters, Shrimp, Cesar’s Salad, and the Seafood Chowder were all good/great. Staff were very attentive, warm and engaged. Pacing was also. We all enjoyed the cocktails. I’d go back.

Charlie Ashworth
Such good food. Expensive, but worth it. Pretty small dining area. Nice and cleanly restrooms. Good service. Really good lobster roll. Good tasting french fries and drinks.
