Upon arrival, the first thing you notice is the small storefront, which seems to cater mostly to delivery and takeout. There are a few tables where you can wait for your food. The menu offers a wide variety of seafood options. My girlfriend and I chose the fried catfish, while our friend went for the blackened shrimp. Let me tell you, the fish was fried to perfection! I had a side of potato salad and the greens, which were absolutely out of this world. The flavors and spices, combined with shredded pork, made for the best greens I've had outside of my grandmother's kitchen. Amazing!
Our friend raved about the blackened shrimp, saying he could eat it all day long without hesitation. The Fis...
However, the smoothie I tried was not sweet at all and had a strange taste. The desserts were overpriced for the portion sizes, and the food overall felt expensive. The whiting consisted of two nice-sized pieces that were hot but bland and somewhat fishy. The barbecue chicken was tasty but way too salty. The cabbage was pretty good, although I prefer mine to have a bit more crunch. The mac and cheese was a definite no, and the greens were decent but nothing special. The corn muffin was good, but the potato salad was a disaster—very vinegary with crunchy potatoes and no seasoning. I really wish I had tried that first to avoid it.
I apologize for the negative feedback, but there’s definitely...
I ordered a bbq chicken salad, onion rings, whiting, Mac and cheese, cabbage, and a black bean burger at this restaurant and it was a terrible experience. I felt like I wasted my money. The black bean burger was essentially a messy scoop of black beans on wheat bread that was both poorly put together and tasted awful. The salad had pickled sun-dried tomatoes that were overpowering and made the salad taste like vinegar. The onion rings were soggy and falling apart. The fish was the only decent part of the meal. The Mac and cheese tasted processed and unappetizing, and the cabbage had an overwhelming amount of bell peppers in it. I am extremely disappointed, especially since I used Uber Eats t...
The Fishouse excels at preparing fish dishes, but falls short when it comes to their side dishes. Their sweet potatoes, for example, are pureed with a sugary topping that could be improved by baking it to achieve a crispy brown finish. The cabbage is noticeably undercooked, while the cole slaw is better cooked but still lacking. On multiple occasions, I received raw french fries, leading me to believe that cooked sides are not a priority for this restaurant. The mac and cheese is also disappointing, with pasta mixed with a processed cheese product and served in a plastic container as if it skipped the baking stage. Despite these shortcomings, the fish at The Fishouse is the best in the DMV r...

I had an excellent experience at this restaurant! The service was attentive, and my order was taken quickly. The food was delicious—the red snapper was absolutely incredible and served in a portion that could easily feed two people. I also appreciated that it is a Black-owned establishment. They offer custom-made smoothies with an endless variety of options. Highly recommend!
I enjoyed a delicious bone-in fish and a steak and cheese sandwich, both seasoned just right for my taste. The prices were reasonable and in line with other restaurants. The place was clean, and the staff was friendly. The wait time for food preparation was average.
I recently sampled the seafood platter at this restaurant, which included mac and cheese, coleslaw, and fried chicken wings. Overall, everything was enjoyable; however, the mac and cheese could have benefitted from a bit more seasoning.
Wow! The fish and chips are incredible, and the potato salad is fantastic as well. The staff is super friendly, making it a must-visit restaurant overall.

I ordered dinner through GrubHub and went to pick up my order, only to find a sign stating that the restaurant is permanently closed.
The collard greens at this restaurant are excellent. The catfish is fresh and fried just right, with no greasiness at all.
