The Best Restaurants In West Midtown

"Unlike Fishmonger’s original North Highland location, its West Midtown counterpart doesn't offer a fish market for take-home raw seafood. But it still provides a fresh catch-quality meal without the fuss (or the price tag) of a high-end seafood establishment. The sunny space is filled with large plants and features a retractable patio wall that enhances the tropical feel. Find a spot near the bar where the sunlight warms your face and sip the savory gumbo. Although it has a light roux and is a bit thinner than we’re used to, it's tasty and served with toasted bread perfect for dipping. And the locally loved juicy blackened grouper sandwich is still just as good as it was when former President Barack Obama visited this place in 2022 and made it nationally famous." - jacinta howard, juli horsford, nina reeder
