I had a great experience at Fish Cheeks. The food was outstanding — especially the fried rainbow trout, which was absolutely delicious, and the crab fried rice, which was packed with flavor. Our waiter, Vincent, was wonderful — super attentive and gave fantastic recommendations throughout the meal. The music added a great vibe to the dining experience, and even the restrooms were spotless, which I appreciated. The only dish that didn’t quite hit was the wok-fried morning glory, which was just okay compared to everything else. Overall, this place is a total gem and I’d definitely come back!
Delicious. Great portions and seasoned to perfection. I absolutely loved the curry shrimp, and I mixed it with the crab fried rice which made it taste even better. Service was good and the food came out piping hot just like I like it. I recommend you try it if you haven't already. I will definitely be returning in the near future.

Vanessa took great care of us today! She was quick, efficient, incredibly friendly, and provided outstanding service from start to finish 10/10.
Every dish we ordered was absolutely delicious and transported us straight to Thailand. The flavors were authentic, fresh, and truly tasted like real Southern Thai home cooking. It was one of the most authentic Thai dining experiences we’ve had. We can’t wait to come back.

I have picky taste, especially on restaurant food.
This place, however, got me and my family an unforgetable memory of dining.
First of all, we had a very unique experience on their fish dishes, such as 'Steamed Fish with Thai Herbs'. I did not expect fish could be that tasty! The Herb Aroma was already tasteful even before I eat.
Chicken was very different from any others, very unique and enjoyably crunch. Actually the chicken appetizer can be best choice if you are not sure on what you are eating for your next meal but you want something tasty but diffferent.
And add any fried rice from this restaurant or any fish dishes as well.
The service was great. All the staff members were kind.
Moreover, this restaurant is children friendly, too. Bright atmosphere with well arranged and organized tables.
I appreciate that we could have such a nice dining experience like this. Thanks to all the staffs and chefs of Fish Cheeks.
Of course, they deserve Whole lot of Five Stars!

It's rare to find a restaurant that's confident in its incredible food and still goes above and beyond with hospitality. I showed up without a reservation on a busy night, and even though the place was packed, they found us a table and simply let us know we'd need to wrap up before the next reservation arrived. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious, and the service never missed a beat. I'll definitely be back—with more friends next time—to tackle that happy hour seafood tower! 💕
