Bonefish Grill

This is a nice restaurant with a large bar, friendly service and good food!
I’ve been here several times to eat and I have not been disappointed. They have a large bar with a full menu and a nice dining room. The food is always good and the service is great!
They have a great menu of seafood items, including their famous Bang Bang shrimp. try the pot stickers to start with a nice glass of wine!
Wednesday’s are Bang Bang Shrimp night, with specials on the shrimp. Yum!
They have some nice wines and even a Kobe Burger for those who are not that into seafood.
Good wine, good service, and great food make this a spot to check out!

This was my second visit to this location and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The food and service was great. I would certainly recommend it.

First time going to the Bonefish. Went with three friends. As we walk into the restaurant we had to go through the a revolving door and the smell of raw fish hit me right off not good. We had an excellent waitress she took our drink order and returned quickly with our orders. She talked about the menu and gave us informative answers to our questions. It was hooked on Tuesday and we all order off that menu. First we got bang bang shrimp I was the only one who found the taste not to my liking. Next came the 3 house salads, could not taste the dressing very bland, oily, and all had to order a side dressinto eat it, One caesar order was great. Next came the entrée my was scallops and shrimp Yummy but sides yuck. (no seasoning on green beans and cheese potatoes under cooked) Three others ordered pecan bass, all got Two said did not like and left most on there plate one said its ok and ate half. Bread and desserts and waitress were all good. That’s why it got two stars and not one. No plans to return on my part.

The atmosphere was ok. It took our waiter longer than it should have to get our order, refills, cleared plates and the check, but DJ was really nice and even funny.
The food was subpar. The crab cake appetizer was unappealing, super small, broke apart and under seasoned.
The tilapia imperial ($ 19) was over cooked and under seasoned as well. I regretted spending that money especially because I didn’t even eat half of it because of our dry and flavorless it was.
The bang bang shrimp was fine. I think the rest of my experience brought it down.
My brother got the Kobe burger and he said it was delicious, juicy and cooked perfectly.
We had the chocolate crème brûlée for dessert and it was actually the best thing I had.
I expected so much more from the bone fish I remember. Honestly until they get things right consistently, for these prices at lunch you’re better off going to Seafood Revolution.

Great service, really good food and amazing craft martinis changed seasonally. Perfect place to go for a special celebration. A bit on the pricey side but worth the treat.

My friend girl and I went for the $ 6 Bang Bang Shrimp special and ended up getting some corn chowder with crab… now I had not ever had corn chowder before but I was amazed and thrilled with the taste.. I’m in love with this soup. my friend had the tomato with roasted vegetables.. she said her soup was divine as well. the waitress was very attentive as well… I really like Bonefish because they are one of the few restaurants that serves cherry coke!

Short Version: Brunch was great. (The 4 stars are for brunch!) Prices are good. Service was good. I would not recommend this restaurant for dinner though.
Long Version:
My wife and I were looking for a brunch location and due to a $ 10 discount card she had been mailed that was expiring the next day, we opted for Bonefish. Honestly we haven’t been to Bonefish in quite a while. It’s local and the food is generally good, but the last several times we went, the atmosphere was a bit too busy in the evenings and the service tended to not be great. It seems to be the Birthday Party or large party location of choice. This is fine, but due to the openness of the floor plan and the many ‘parties’, it doesn’t feel like I’ve been to a nice restaurant.
At any rate, my wife mentioned Bonefish for brunch and I was surprised. I didn’t even know they HAD brunch!
We arrived at 11am and the restaurant had only two other diners. We were promptly greeted, seated, and provided drinks.
We both chose the Cajun Shrimp Omelet (goat cheese, onions, sweet bell peppers and a creole sauce). This comes with toast (with jelly on the side) and a choice of grilled asparagus or potatoes au gratin. Our waitress also offered the crab fried rice which was not no the menu. It was a $ 5 upcharge that I was not told about, but it was worth it.
The omelets were well cooked, a sizable portion, and the shrimp was plentiful. The creole sauce was a spicy cream sauce that was fabulous. In short, the Cajun Omelet was delicious!
The toast was toasted just right. The jelly came in small ‘single serving’ jars. My wife had the grilled asparagus which she was pleased with. My crab fried rice was a generous portion with a very generous portion of crab meat. It was good enough that the $ 5 upcharge on the bill didn’t bother me in the least. I felt that it was well worth it.
The service was just OK. We never really wanted for anything, but extra glasses and dirty dishes weren’t bussed until we left despite being practically the only patrons in the restaurant. The staff was all crowded around the far booth rolling silverware and chatting.
At $ 9.90 for the Cajun Omelet as an average price for their brunch offerings you really can’t go wrong. I think for brunch that Bonefish Grill can compete with most of the other brunch places when you consider the price.
I’ll be back for brunch, but given my past experiences in the evenings I probably won’t return for dinner.

There are a lot of different places I like to eat; but, there are very few that I can hardly wait to take my wife and mother too. Bonefish is one, it is outstanding and the waitstaff are first rate and very informative. Charlotte was my waitress when I got there I asked for a recommendation and could not have gotten a better recommendation or better service. I am looking forward to my next meal at the Bonefish. This was my first visit the Bonefish but it won’t be my last.

I enjoyed this «chain». But the server was outstanding and all of the staff paid attention to detail to everyone. The manager was ever present and visible at all times. I enjoyed the ever popular «bang bang shrimp» the tuna was divine and the tilipia imperial was to die for. Now the lobster mac and cheese «meh» and over cooked.

Disappointed: Bone Fish is one of my top 5 favorite restaurants. My experience today on my birthday was very disappointing. All i wanted was a nice carryout meal. I ordered my favorite rainbow trout in lemon butter and some bang bang shrimp. When I got my order the shrimp were naked in a bowl with the sauce in a container. Ten dollar bang bang shrimp should have the sauce on every shrimp on top of lettuce. The worse part is the sauce in the container was super thick and had a pimento cheese taste to it.
My fish was dry and it wasn’t cooked in the lemon butter sauce as I’m use to at Bone Fish. The garlic potatoes were great as usual but the rice tasted like it was from a old Chinese restaurant.
I love Bone Fish and i will give them another try but I will never do carryout again here. I’m not sure what was going on with the quality today.

Very friendly bartenders. Delicious Pad Thai and crab cakes. Great place to hang out at the bar and chat with new people. Awesome White Russians!

Loved loved loved this place. It doesn’t seem like a chain restaurant. Our waitress was very personable and spent a lot of time at our table. Bang bang shrimp is where it’s at!

We had a business dinner and from the moment we entered the temps tire was very cold. We including the men at the table were freezing. We ask to have the air turned down. Needless to say it went downhill from there we never got our soup, never got our tea and the server was condescending! Won’t be back here.

I like this bar. The atmosphere is good, wait staff attentive and the food scrummy. I’ve been here a dozen times and never been disappointed. Reason for 4 stars is they have no allergy menu so I have to wade myself through the normal menu.
A little more expensive than the other places in Madison but worthy every penny

We were looking forward to eating fresh seafood in MS. We were here the week of Thanksgiving 2013. We did enjoy the fish for sure.
I’d like to give this restaurant 4 stars, but I just can’t.
We’d called to set up reservations since there were 6 of us, but we were told there wasn’t a wait and we didn’t need them. In the 10 minutes it took us to drive to the restaurant, the place filled up and we ended up with quite a wait, which was frustrating with a 3 year old. Then there was a mix up over seating us: we had a table, then we didn’t and we were left standing in the dining room for 5 – 10 minutes.
Our waitress was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. We were very happy with her service.
The food was very good for the most part. Everyone enjoyed the Bang Bang Shrimp, the Edamame and the Mussels Josephine appetizers. We were all full before we even started on the entrees. I probably was the only one who ordered the wrong meal for myself. Everyone else liked their dinners.
My in-​laws have been back to this restaurant since our visit and enjoyed it. Maybe it’s just that we were too large a party and they should have let us make the reservation we requested.

I had the bang bang shrimp for an appetizer. I can’t quite remember what I had for entrée because it was so long ago but I do remember loving everything and wanting to go back. I remember having clam chowder which was my first time having it and it taste great!

I’d never tried Bonefish before. I happend to be there on BangBang night and was better for the experience. Food was very good. Place was packed! (It WAS BangBang night afterall). I try to avoid chains, but I’d stop at a Bonefish again, This one for sure.

Good seafood, great staff. I heard the BANG BANG shrimp was something to try.

BANG BANG SHRIP AND MARTINIS
Fabulous Food
Fabulous Service
Great atmosphere

The food, the service, the ambiance, the location… absolute stunning.
No wonder they’re number one in the now crowded chain.
