Gt Fish & Oyster

A Chicago classic restaurant. THE best place to get the freshest seafood in the Midwest. Definitely a restaurant to go and share all the food with great friends. The clam chowder was served in a warm, cute jar with large bits of clam. The lobster roll was served on a super buttery, soft bread. The rainbow trout was so velvety and melted in your mouth. The seafood cavatelli pasta had so much flavor and perfectly paired well with the shrimp, squid, mussels, and clams. The pumpkin cheesecake and the Apple galette were so delicious; we would’ve gotten seconds if we weren’t so full.

By far the best meal we had in Chicago. 5 stars DO NOT do our experience justice. From the service, to the atmosphere and attention to detail GT is in a category of it’s own. The Mussels were absolutely incredible ! We don’t normally do desert but glad we did……ridiculously good. Thanks CT and all the staff, please open in Toronto soon !!!!

I am absolutely in love with this place! I ordered the crab cake, oysters, and had lobster roll + black truffle and mussels as my entrees. My favorite were definitely the crab cake and lobster roll. I am so in love with the pickled cauliflower it came with. The texture of the cake was phenomenal. It has that thick and rich flavor, and crispy texture on the outside. Adding the sauces it came on the side, and a bit of the pickled cauliflower as a palette cleanser definitely won it for me! The lobster roll was just dynamite. I added the black truffle because I’m simply obsessed with truffle, and I was lost for words of how good this dish was. Overall, I will come back to this place when I visit Chicago again!

This place is absolutely incredible. We came here to celebrate our 8th anniversary and could not have picked a better place! The food was phenomenal and the service was the best we've ever had. Everything was cooked to perfection and the servers were incredibly attentive and helpful. Thank you so much an amazing experience! *pictures of the Seafood Cavatelli (entrée), Halibut (entrée), Octopus (starter), and Bikini Bottom drink. Not pictured but was also amazing: Tuna Crudo (starter) Black Sazerac (drink) and Key Lime Pie with Coconut Sorbet (dessert)

My husband and I came for Valentine’s Day weekend dinner and it did not disappoint! Every course was incredible. We ordered oysters and crab claws for starters. Branzino and trout for main. Branzino here was the best I’ve ever had. For dessert we got the key lime pie and beignets. 10/10. Will 100% come back and am excited to try the other GTs.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Seafood was outstanding. Oyster variety of British Columbia, New Brunswick and Cape Cod was delicious and informative. Best octopus dish I have enjoyed…Perfectly prepared with yogurt and fresh beets. Salmon prepared with crisp skin and vey pink center as I requested and enjoy. Complemented food with a smooth Oregon Chardonnay that had right touch of oak. Lively but quiet enough for a conversation. Very cool and functional “boomerang” table in bar area

100% recommend. We are in Chicago celebrating our honeymoon and wanted a good seafood dinner. Put in a reservation for 7:30, got there a bit early, and they seated us right away. The food, staff, and cocktails were phenomenal. The GM Max gave us such a personal experience and our server Alex was extremely attentive. Make sure you get the octopus, oysters, and key lime pie. You will not regret your choice!
