Nestled near the Wellington L stop, Fish Bar dishes up an inviting mix of fresh seafood delights, from crispy tacos to classic lobster rolls, all in a laid-back, New England-style setting.
"When it’s -11 degrees outside and you’ve just spent an hour digging your car out of two feet of snow, one thought likely occupies your mind: I wish I were on a beach right now. And then that thought gets extended further: Maybe that beach is on Cape Cod? And maybe I’m enjoying a fresh lobster roll while watching dolphins play off the coast? Ok, that last part might be just us. But whenever you’re hankering for clams or lobster, check out Fish Bar. It’s like the offspring of a New England fish shack that spent some time in New Orleans. Lobster rolls are the obvious move, but what we really like is the Satchmo Po’boy with fried shrimp and crawfish on a bun." - veda kilaru
"Lakeview’s Fish Bar is like the offspring of a New England fish shack that spent some time in New Orleans. There are po’boys and snow crabs, but the obvious move is a classic Maine-style lobster roll on the patio. The old bay mayo complements the lobster, and we like that the filling is recognizable instead of a diced-up lobster salad. " - veda kilaru
"3rd Coast Fish Bar, which was founded by DMK, offers tons of seafood options, including a fish and chips set with beer-battered cod, slaw, and tartar sauce." - Ashok Selvam, Naomi Waxman, Eater Staff
"Right off the Wellington L stop, you'll find this great lunch spot. With a super approachable menu and casual New England-esque space, Fish Bar is sure to please. With only 3 booths and a patio, most of the seating is directed to the wraparound bar where you're waited on thoroughly, diner countertop-style. The menu is broken down clearly and always offers a variety of fish that is in season or 'Chef's choice,' to keep things interesting. For a tried and true lunch, go for the Codfish sandwich or blackened tacos, hush puppies or tots, and...a beer. Seafood not your thing? Head next door to their DMK Burger Bar..." - Studio Malt
"DMK is very matter-of-fact with their restaurant names, because next to Burger Bar is Fish Bar. It would be funny if Fish Bar served pizza, but that’s not the case. Come sit at the counter and eat a grilled fish BLT." - sam faye, adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru
