The taste of sustainable seafood and local organic fare is here in Delray Beach. San Diego hotspot Lionfish located on the beach town's bustling Atlantic Avenue provides fresh-catch cuisine, grass-fed meats and local, seasonal ingredients in an approachable, casual setting. Lionfish, which has been recognized twice as a James Beard Foundation Smart Catch Leader, brings a sea-to-table approach to dishes, letting the freshness of the fish shine through the simplistic, yet perfectly seasoned cuisine. Our work with locally sourced ingredients and regional purveyors is evident with every bite. In addition to the contemporary cooking, Lionfish also offers an innovative beverage menu of time-honored classics, an all-encompassing wine list & local craft beers. In addition, Lionfish bartenders will flawlessly concoct cutting-edge cocktails, such as the bourbon-based Barracuda, the Atlantic Buzz made with tequila, fresh citrus & herbs, or the shareable Fugu Delray.

The cocktails and oysters were the highlight. The oysters were fresh, but some were sandy and a few half shells were chipped. The ceviche was good but had been marinated too long and was turning tough. Tuna crispy rice was ok. Tuna on top was flavorful and fresh but the crispy rice was a bit chewy. Onshore cocktail was excellent. Nicely balanced. It’s a noisy restaurant so don’t expect something intimate. Maybe turning down the music volume would help mitigate the noise level. All in all we had a pleasant evening

We had been to the restaurant before and really enjoyed it. This time, it was WAY too loud (and we were a large group but could barely hear each other sitting across the table let alone a few seats away) and I like a noisy restaurant but this was too much. The food was good (some things better than others) and service was fine (they seemed stretched too thin).

Food was good. Service excellent. My disappointment came with my bill. Not for the food but for my martini(s). My companion was asked if she wished a 6 or 9 ounce pour of the wine. I ordered 2 Martini over the course of our dinner. When the bill come it included 2 surcharges. I was told that they were for additional vodka that the restaurant's definition of a Martini called for one 1.5 ounce of vodka and mine were 3 ounces, thus the surcharge. No serious Marini drinker would believe that definition! And it was not disclosed upon me ordering my cocktail. And they did not make any attempt to remove the surcharge. May seem like a small thing BUT we will not be returning to the Lionfish, ever again.

Easter Brunch. Good service from Keira, but kitchen not so much. Eggs Benedict way overcooked. At fine dining pricing, they should be perfect, IMO. Good place to people watch.
