Brew Fish Bar & Eatery — Restaurant in Marion

We waited 1.5 hrs. after placing our order even though we had 2 toddlers in high chairs. It was insane trying to keep them entertained and had to take them outside many times. We could have used some kitchen/waitress priority on toddlers' food! We ordered mac n cheese for the little ones and it took an hour! The adults ordered standard fare with no changes to the menu but we waited even longer for the adult food. It's really puzzling why our table waited so long because other tables who arrived later than us got their food in about 30 minutes. I went inside to find our waitress twice, asking her to check on our order because the toddlers were close to having meltdowns. I was disappointed and bummed because my son in law was treating us all to dinner and it was supposed to be a fun outing. Instead everyone was worried about the kids and I had a stress stomachache. We were just a party of 5 adults and 2 toddlers. We wound up eating late at 8 pm after being seated at 6:20. The two dads had to leave their half eaten dinners to take the toddlers home. Luckily we had two cars and brought the two dads their dinners at home when my daughter, daughter-in- law and I were finished. We had a much better experience at Barnacle Bill's actually, where the kitchen and wait staff were kind to us and fast with the food, plus they checked back on us for water refills, etc. Maybe go when they aren't busy. It was a Weds. night at 6:20 when we were seated on the main patio. The food was actually good, but hard to enjoy after all that. Hope others have a...

Have been here numerous times before the pandemic and recently just visited. The first noticeable difference was more of the parking lot has been paved. The decor on the outside and inside is nice! Now to the food, drinks and menu. There are different items on the menu. Maybe it rotates. I ordered a item that has been on the menu forever. The Portuguese linguini and clams. This time it was different. The linguica was always ground before but this time it was a different meat altogether and it was sliced. Also cheese was put on top which changed the entire profile of the meal. It use to be my favorite item but not anymore with how the chef prepared it this time. The other people in my party said the fish and chips and fish tacos were good. The saving grace is the chale soup! It is out of this world and if I come back it will be the only thing I order. Beer selection is great too but mine was brought to me in a dirty glass that had to be returned. Overall, prices are high and meals are decent at best. Use to be a first choice place but now if people are going I’ll join if not it’s not worth the drive anymore. The chale soup and beer won’t be enough to sustain this place if things...

My fiancé and I always end up at the same restaurants and decided to drive to BrewFish because it’s been forever. I had the chale soup and chicken and prosciutto it was delicious. I actually substituted my spinach for fried Brussel sprouts and it was the best decision I have made! He is super picky and ended up getting steak tips which he enjoyed. They had a great wine and beer selection and specials menu.

It was a Friday evening at 6 pm and we were seated right away and immediately asked what we would like to drink. Our waitress was really nice. She didn’t make us wait or ask for refills which is always a plus. Nothing like finishing your beer and waiting for another... she knew we were running low and brought us out our second and then our third round without us having to flag her down. We will be coming back here to try more!

Only con is it’s pretty loud.

I’m not someone who reviews often but I feel like this place deserves this positive review. I’m just a mom of three kids who desperately needed a date night and this place made this adult time with my...
