The Fish House
Made famous for its Grits A Ya-Ya, a tasty dish of spiced jumbo Gulf Shrimp, Portobello mushrooms, applewood-smoked bacon, garlic, and shallots, piled high on smoked Gouda cheese grits. This rich and tasty local favorite was invented back in the 1990s by chef Jim Shirley to satisfy the hunger of famished Mardi Gras revelers. The Fish House also offers a broad selection of classic seafood, fresh house specialties, and local favorites.
