Title: White River Fishmarket and Restaurant Post by: Ed W on July 18, 2015, 06:15:52 pm Location(s) Being Reviewed: 1708 N Sheridan
Date/Time of Visit: 1130A 18JUL15 Quality of Food (1-5): 4 Menu/Food Options (1-5): 4 (See photo) Quality of Service (1-5): 4 Atmosphere (1-5): 3 Plain and clean. Overall Rating (1-5): 4 Price ($-$$$$$): Entrées range from $11 to $18. What makes this restaurant unique: The dining area is plain but the food is fresh and tasty. Tell us about your experience: You enter through a door at the north end of the restaurant and place your order at the counter. There's a cold case displaying fresh fish on the right and another case on the left with some very tempting desserts, including huge chunks of cheesecake. I resisted mightily. The waitresses know the regulars and greet the, calling them by name. It's a homey kind of place. I fully expected to be called "hon" but I was disappointed. Still, they were courteous and efficient.

Don't work far from it (15th/Sheridan) so it's never a bad trip. Also a little taco place on the SE corner of Pine/Sheridan next to a cell phone store that maybe one of the best taco places I've ever eaten. Unfortunately I cannot remember the name of the place.

I had the grilled sea scallops and her the fried shrimp. I saw that Doris (my old bank teller) had gotten a job there as a waitress.
I was amazed at how good the scallops were. I usually have the fried clams dinner (but can't eat fried food right now). My scallops were soft and seared just perfect.

You place your order, go sit down and then, miraculously, they show up with your food. No numbers, no name, nothing.

They just magically knew where to bring the food. Crazy.

Decades ago, worked at Independence and Sheridan and got to go for lunch once in a while. Always liked it a lot... must return soon!!

"Do you have fish and chips?" I asked. "No. But we have a fish basket with French fries!" I didn't inquire about malt vinegar.

I grew up eating seafood in North Carolina and this place is on that level. We go all of the time.
