Fishwives - Pasadena (CA)

5 /5 Christine McCormick: Such a great menu! We ordered ceviche, crab cakes, mussels, fish tacos, the seafood soup, and their fat French fries are the bomb! Everything was delicious and perfectly cooked. The beer choices are really nice, with cider options, and, even sake. We wish we tried the miso black cod, it looked good. Next time for sure since we will be back! The staff was terrific and accommodating to our big group, coming in at the last minute without a reservation! I liked the Japanese vibe. You can also sit outside in the nsck courtyard. I recommend this spot.

5 /5 David martinez: I had the pleasure of visiting Fishwives in downtown Pasadena while attending a concert, and the experience was simply outstanding. As someone who always seeks out fresh seafood, especially with a South American influence, I was absolutely delighted by the quality of the dishes. In particular, I tried the “Peruvian seashells,” and the freshness and flavor were exceptional. It’s rare to find seafood of such high quality, and Fish Wife truly excels at it. The ambiance is very welcoming, and the service was top-notch. However, I did notice that the bartender could have had a bit more knowledge about the local craft beers, which was a slight letdown. Overall, it’s a place I would highly recommend to any seafood lover.

5 /5 Kevin Trinh: We got the clam chowder, several oysters, and a lobster roll! The food tasted great. Amazing lobster roll, and I spent four years in Maine too. It was a bit pricey but the quality was great. The bread is phenomenal.

5 /5 Olivia Barchard: Friendly fast services and yummy food! The greens were actually served with beautiful radishes and golden raisins. Fries were actually cut potatoes. Oysters delish! Surprised to see it so slow tonight but it’s a Monday night.
