Tin Fish Restaurant

The place is always buzzing with energy as it's by the lakefront. Food is great, Calhoun Lunch also isn't too expensive. Coleslaw is great, and the shrimp ceviche is really refreshing by the lakeside.

Decent food. Great scenery for eating. Kids menu available from hotdogs, grilled cheese, tenders and so forth. A lot of fish items that are grilled or fried, tacos, chips and more. Local brew also available.

The food was cooked to perfection and tasted so nice and juicy! Got the salmon fish taco and absolutely loved it! Highly recommend this place

The food is fresh and delicious, but it is certainly not worth the wait. Open only during the summer months, this place is a haven for locals seeking out some fresh seafood. Famous for their fried fish tacos and platters, you can also get grilled fish fillets, chicken, and hamburgers. Outdoor seating only on picnic tables. On nice summer days, expect to wait an hour in line to order the food and another hour waiting for it to be cooked.

The Tin Fish is the perfect place for not only outdoor dining, but dining period. The food is excellent and well priced. The perfect place to eat with friends or on a date or with family. The grilled tacos are excellent and the home made chips and salsa are a delight with peppers, jalapenos and cilantro it is a must have. Also a great deal is the Lake Calhoun lunch, for that guilty fried Talapia, waffle fries and slaw. The scenery of the lake is the perfect compliment and the owners and employees are the best. They even have puppy stations with water for the pups as well as free treats for them at the counter. This is a very popular place and there is almost always a long line so be prepared to wait a while to place an order, once it is placed the wait is not long to receive food. Well worth the wait.

This is a local gem! A must for locals and visitors alike. They are open after Memorial Day and through Labor Day. Despite the long lines and wait times, it is one of the most enjoyable and delicious lunch options around. The scenery on Lake Calhoun and people watching couldn't be better. Anything you get on the menu is going to be delicious and plentiful. Another thing I love about this place is that it's very dog friendly. The owners LOVE dogs, and make it a point to have treats and water bowls out for your furry friends. Tin Fish is the definition of summer in Minneapolis, in my book. You can't go through summer without eating there at least once. And it's not summer unless Tin Fish is open and serving their delicious fair. Go! You won't be disappointed.

A great place for lunch at the lakes. Their fish tacos/grilled fish sandwiches are the best. They have a wide selection of different fishes and sea food (shrimp, scallops, oysters among others) and a nice set of sides. A great place to grab some grub and a beer to have while at the lakes. Expect to wait in line if you come anytime close to lunch (11:30-2) or dinner (4:30-7).
