    Nice atmosphere, good seafood, excellent cocktails. Fresh oysters were shucked perfectly and were new types for me to try. A great recommendation from the server. I will be back when I want a casual spot to enjoy fresh seafood.

    Calamari was crip and cooked perfectly, the lobster roll was excellent, and the KC Strip was solid. Friendly waitstaff and overall fantastic experience.

    Food was amazing and our waitress, Regan, was even better! We sampled several items including Crackerjax oysters we delicious. Maybe the best calamari I've ever had, a hotdogs covered slaw and crab meat was amazing and a solid gumbo! Refreshing unique mixed drinks and a good wine selection. Great place to hangout for a while during happy hour like we did! Enjoy! 😋

    My GF was craving seafood for her birthday and choose Jax out of every restaurant in the area, while it might not be the fanciest restaurant the food is by far much better IMO.. our server ( can’t remember her name) older lady dark hair was great! She answered all of our questions and even gave us recommendations as this was our first time here. My GF went with the “line” entree and subbed out raw oysters for chargrilled and wow they were amazing. The Lobster and crab legs were delicious as well. I went with the Salmon and pork belly collards, some of the best salmon I’ve had! So much flavor! My GF and I can’t wait to come back and try other menu items! TY Jax for hosting an awesome birthday dinner for my GF.

    Plaza has many amazing seafood restaurants and Jax Fish House is one of them. I believe they introduced a new menu in 2021 and I absolutely love the new menu. The chef did a great job putting together amazing seafood dishes. I once had a special dish that was a Fried Australian Prawns over Polenta and broccolini and it was absolutely amazing. They also have special happy hour menu for especial occasions such as st. Patrick’s or Christmas.

    Brunch is baaaack!!!! The menu was amazing and such great service. Those cinnamon rolls though - be prepared to order a million, both to eat during your meal and then to take home to enjoy and not share with anyone else. The deviled eggs are a must for an appetizer. I had the steak and eggs and highly recommend. The bacon is amazing, as well. Basically don't sleep on this brunch - it's a good one!

    This was tuff. So upset but the flavor was great. Ordered the halibut and asked, "because I'm hungry, is it pretty good size." Yes was the response. Plus it come with this other side or what ever. Almost walked out when they showed up with a tiny piece of fish over a thin bed of clovers and not even a salad. Price was too high. Food was amazing .. service was amazing.. but I was hungry, left hungry. Spending 50 for one meal should never leave u hungry..

    A bit overpriced compared to other places were you can have the same seafood plates. Everything ordered was really tasty and good though, Tuna steak, salmon and sword fish. The Variety of oyster options was a hit and I liked the way this place describes them. Lora the waitress was the best thing in this restaurant. She must be kept at all cost. Excellent service and menu descriptions.

    So excited that I found this spot tucked in the West Plaza area in KCMO. I came here for the oysters and I wasn’t disappointed. Service was good and the inside was inviting. It has a laidback ambiance and you can go enjoy a small bite to eat with others or even enjoy a meal solo. I recommend this spot for happy hour deals or an intimate dinner.

  • 3/5 John R. 6 months ago on Google
    Pricey for the amount you get. I got the cod fish sandwich, (one of the cheapest items on the menu) which was good, but I didn't eat the huge bun. I had to ask for tartar sauce. No gluten-free options. Only a Louisiana style gumbo for soup choices. I would have liked to see an oyster stew, or clam chowder option in addition to their gumbo offering. Service was fair, but should have been much better for a "classy" restaurant. Too expensive, and parking is a little challenging, although they will validate your garage parking ticket. I won't be back. Lots of other seafood options in the general area.

    Our go-to place for seafood! The food is amazing and the staff is awesome! Sean is knowledgeable, friendly and makes one helluva drink!

    The Oyster, seafood, and atmosphere are great! They have special oysters from other parts of the US as a special of the week. There is valet parking which is located by Fontaine Hotel.

    Very good place, good vibes, good food, good service. Went without reservation, was at the bar in 15 minutes or so to eat and drink. I'd suggest more dark beer selections tho. Food was wonderful... Oysters were perfect. 💙🖤💜✌️

    We celebrated our anniversary there. The service was excellent. My husband grew up in Jax, FL, so he knows good shrimp. And we had good shrimp. And the best hushpuppies. Everything was so good, I forgot to take a picture of our entres.

    We had such a great time along with absolutely delicious food. I ordered the scallops and grits as a side.We had mussels for an appetizer along with their amazing wedge and hush puppies. Our server was Chris that was so very attentive and has an incredible memory, thank you for a great night 🙂💖

    In my opinion, it's the best upper price seafood restaurant in Kansas city mo. Which is nice because it's getting expensive driving to gulfport for good fish. The staff is amazing. The food is delicious. Location is perfect for eating and walking it off while shopping. There's also a parking garage right next door.

    Great service. Great food. We were in town for my friend’s wedding and got the chance to stop by here. They were close to closing, but still gave us exceptional service and the food was amazing! Fresh and cooked perfectly!
