“fun casual atmosphere, good seafood with specials that change daily.”
“Scallops were overdone, gumbo was bland, but the beer was cold and that saved the evening.”

Best seafood in the Midwest. Davis Street Fishmarket is an awesome restaurant. I wish there was one in Chicago. However, it is worth the drive to Evanston to have dinner there. Obviously seafood is not what Chicago is known for, so having a wonderful place like Davis Street for lobster, crab legs, gumbo, is awesome! Thanks for many great lunches and dinners!…
Evanston has better seafood options.
The restaurant was empty, yet crumbs and grease streaked the table. Somebody couldn't be bothered to clean up. Not a good first impression.
Davis Street Fishmarket is known for its fresh fish, but we were disappointed on all counts. An appetizer of New Bedford Clam Strips was three parts fried dough to one part clam. The Steamed Maine Whole Lobster was overcooked and a little tough, sweet but too chewy. The tin of drawn butter was dotted with mysterious unappetizing flecks.
Grilled Sea Scallops and Sea Bass were merely satisfactory. No special spices or touch of sea salt to enhance flavor -- just the same old drawn butter. The seafood itself was edible, but more Red-Lobster than fresh fish market.…
Spectacular Seafood. Everything is great. The firecracker shrimps and blackened calamari appetizers are wonderful. We're very pleased with the main course as well (trout and grouper). We'll definitely go back again and again soon.…
Evnaston's version of Red Lobster. Mediocre at best. Scallops were overdone, gumbo was bland, but the beer was cold and that saved the evening. Probably too much on the menu to really specialize in great tasting entres. It's probably a real treat for NU students, but for a more mature palate, this place is just average.…
User review by kidsnextdoor. I have been here on several occassions for lunch, dinner etc. and overall it is pretty good (the food as well as the service). i don't ever remember the restaurant getting too crowded. My friends call me a cake connoiseur and their Chocolate Drunk Cake.....is worth trying!…
