“ A friend & I went for restaurant week...it was delicious. Truly enjoyed the experience. The portions were great but to make all 4 courses I have leftovers for tomorrow! Each dish was plated beautifully (better than attached pictures) I have come here before for lunch & had sushi... it was delicious as well ”
“ First time here and it did not disappoint! We were coming from Loveland and had reservations on Valentines Day. Traffic was horrible and we were running 30 minutes late. We called and they were so accommodating and held our table without any hesitation. Our server was fantastic and attentive. We had the lobster tots to start and they were delicious. We also ordered drinks that had heavy pours (not mad about this at all ). We ordered the crab cake special, and the blackened mahi tacos for dinner. SO GOOD! No room for dessert but next time we definitely have to try the bread pudding! ”
“ I recently had lunch at Smokin Fins in Highlands Ranch with my friends and was so happy with our meal and service. The staff was so friendly and loved the atmosphere. We went back for dinner three days later and were even more impressed. What a fun place to go with friends. I will be back for more!!! ”
“ Friday night was Busy!!! The food was amazing! Fin was helpful with oysters and wine list. He was super friendly, and great service as busy as it was. It's my birthday weekend and manager brought 2 delicious desserts out. Thanks again for being awesome and making great food! ”
“ This hopping establishment in the heart of Highlands Ranch is exactly where you want to go for fresh seafood in our landlocked state. I ordered a wide range of sushi as an appetizer which was beautifully prepared and was not disappointed by my main entree which was the cedar plank salmon. The presentation was phenomenal but the flavor was even better. The head chef even came out to greet my friends and I asked about our dinner. It made the experience feel so special and so classy. Thank you Smokin Fins for making a girl’s night out extra special. ”
“ Good seafood restaurant. The lobster stuffed avocado appetizer was excellent. It was surprising that it was more of a sushi-like dish. It wasn't just a lobster salad in an avocado half. It had small rice grains. The top part was cold with a spicy sauce that really enhanced the dish. The avocado was warm and had a thin crust fried on. It was a great combination of flavors and textures and fun to eat. The berry cobbler sounded good. The berries and ice cream were very good, but the pastry wasn't good with it. It was thick and chewy making the dish difficult to eat with a spoon. It would have been great with a biscuit or a flaky top. Service was fast and friendly. The space seems to have some construction going on outside. It looked like it might be closed, but was not. The interior was pleasant and had a nice bar area. It was a bit dark inside. They do have unsecured Wi-Fi for customers. Overall, it's a bit pricey. There is plenty of parking available. ”
“ Not bad for the first time visiting.. our server was the best! He made everything feel welcoming of course being the only Black people in the restaurant it wasn’t even an ounce of feeling of not belonging. Our food was really great and the sushi was fresh and our drinks were worth their value. It was quite busy so it took a minute for a meal but no errors because our food came out hot and fresh.... The atmosphere a bit noisy but that’s to be expected at a bar and grill.. I’d recommend this place for a date night or a group of friends going out and you have family in town looking for a spot to eat with good food and great service. The manager was very kind as I inquired of having a bourbon and golf podcast in the Spring. ”
“ This is an awesome little restaurant with amazing food. Our server Alyssa was so attentive and accommodating, we were there for Denver restaurant week and the 4 course meal options were right on point with what we were looking for!! Will definitely be going back ”
