    One of the best place to eat at Cox’s bazar. They let you catch your favorite fish from their aquarium and they cook it for you. Vorta items are also very good. Their telapia fish fry is awesome. Prices are bit high but worth trying. Recommended.

    Absolute perfection! The fresh fish, bhorta, rice, everything tasted delicious. We tried the grilled tilapia and it was to die for! The price is pretty reasonable for the quality and quantity we ordered. Highly recommended!

    Price of food is much higher than others. But food is amazing. Staffs behaviour was also good, indeed. But their extra 10% service charge...worst experience I've. I didn’t take any food but I've to paid extra 10% which was totally non judgemental.

    Good place to dine in with family and friends. Sitting arrangements are quite nice and hygiene. You'll get the taste of sea food. Waiters are polite, educated and helpful. Service was really good. Food taste is also good, but I think there's room for improvement. Need to be more focus on food taste. Overall, I liked the place. If you visit Cox's Bazar, you can give a try at EFC Live Fish Restaurant.

    There were several live fishes in the tank. Though live fishes were more expensive than the dead one. We have taken the 'Telapia' fish. They have fried it with garlic. It was so tasty. Besides, we have ordered salad, chicken, 'Loitta' fry and chicken curry. All of the food were tasty and fresh. The place is very quite and not gathered. Stuffs were friendly and behaved well. Highly recommended.

    If you are visiting coxbazar then this restaurant should be must visit restaurant. Awesome taste of the food. I love fish and when I get good cooked fish. I just fell in love with it. I really loved the fish here. You can choose the fish which u want to grill or curry they serve booth. They have huge aquarium where all live fish available. Restaurant is clean and interior is okay too. Service is all over good. I highly recommend this place.

    If you are a fish lover, this place is highly recommended. Live fishes are in display for you to choose from a wide variety of choices. Chosen one will be grilled or fried or cooked in the way you wish to have in your plate. Served food tastes good. This restaurant is spacious with good interior. Visit with family but obviously not with a thin wallet.

    Absolutely amazing taste and experience. A must go-to for live fish genre if restaurants if you visit the town. It's a unique experience if you haven't visited a live fish restaurant before. All of their items are incredible including local fishes. Kids will also love the experience as well as fish fries and grills. The environment is neat and clean, service is friendly. Cost is very reasonable. However live fish restaurants generally take some time as the fishes are not frozen marinated before. They will catch and cook the exact fish you show them, right of the hook, so it will take some time, so make sure you have plenty.

    This is very nice restaurant! When i come to cox’s bazar i always visit live fish restaurant. This is place where you can enjoy the food. Here crowed is less so you can order food for lunch or dinner easily. Here all is perfect but they are taking at least 20-30 min to serve food. If you come for group lunch or dinner its better you order by phone before you come here. It will save time for tourist.

    As a live fish Restaurant they will cook the fish you choose. Food was good. But surely they can improve in lot of areas. Housekeeping & ambiance is poor for a restaurant as expensive as this. Food wise it was okay, but they should improve in a lot of areas to justify the pricetags. Felt like a generic small town rice restaurant.

  • 4/5 Tarek A. 3 years ago on Google
    This is a one time experience. You select the fish, catch it with a net, take a photo with your catch and then fry it, grill it or curry it. The fish are kept very hygienically and taste is really good. The service is little slow but the wait is worthwhile. The fish are expensive almost 3 times more than the market as they are fresh.

  • 3/5 Nazmul Ahsan P. 1 year ago on Google
    Their food and service became worse, but thier price is very high. They are very costly, but the quality of food has decreased. The idea of live fish was great, but instead of upgrading their services, they decreased their service day by day. Previously, I visited this restaurant, the quality of food was far better. The environment of the restaurant is very bad. The washrooms are the worst.

  • 5/5 Mohammed A. 1 year ago on Google
    Another good dinner with my family at EFC live fish restaurant in Cox’s Bazar. Food was delicious. Hand picked live tilapia fish fry was excellent in taste. Our food came quickly, food runners were efficient. Overall we enjoyed our dinner. Thanks.

    Had a very tasteful Coral fish here. But the price is very high. Will not recommend if you earn halal money.

  • 3/5 Khaled Shah N. 5 years ago on Google
    Comfortable accommodations, spacious tables, dishes are a bit pricey considering the cost of input products they are using. Place is noisy as each of the sitting areas are facilitated by four ceiling fans and tables are closely placed from each other. Lighting is too low for extracting fish bones in case you choose dishes with fishes with too many small bones. Cooking quality is good. Service was satisfactory as well. Things can improve in terms of pricing and atmosphere.

  • 3/5 Md. Tarek K. 4 years ago on Google
    It is a good place to spend time. Environment in the restaurant is good. But service I see is very slow. If you want to come here please come with keeping enough time. I ordered fish cutlet and french fry. Food was tasty. You will find prayer place for Muslim. I find the price is high. You can by cash and also MasterCard.

  • 3/5 Arif H. 3 years ago on Google

  • 1/5 Fariha Mostafa T. 3 years ago on Google
    Their service and quality is so poor. Their food is too much low quality. I ordered 2 rupchada and koral fish grill. They served fried fish. We didn’t tell them anything. But when we taste the food we found that they didn’t gave any salt on koral fish. And not cooked properly. Then we called the boy who took the order. But he didn’t came infront of us. Another person came and we said about their mistake. But he was trying to teach us what is grill. We said that we can't eat this fish anymore. Then we return they fish. And they can't say anything because that was their falt. After this they gave us a huge bill. And that was too much expensive. But food quality too much low. I will never go again.

    Space ia huge, stuffs behavior is well. But kind of old design and lack of population. In off season at night you will find something fishy bout thik place. Might be for low power energy bulbs.

    (Translated by Google) Fairly secluded and quite a large place. Be a little more careful with the food, everything else is fairly good. (Original) মোটামুটি ভালো নিরিবিলি ও বেশ বড় জায়গা। খাবারের প্রতি আরেকটু যত্নবান হবে বাকি সব মোটামুটি ভালো।

  • 5/5 Shahriar H. 3 years ago on Google
    Tilapia grill is their signature item and a must try! Coral tastes the same and around 3 times more expensive so I suggest everyone to shy away it unless there is a very big group who cannot but taste a big fish.
