“Charming waterside restaurant”
The mouth-watering menu at The Dead Fish features great seafood and much more with headings like "Recently Demised Fish of the Day," and "Dead or Alive" after a humorous spin on the story behind the restaurant's moniker: The Chef's beloved Nonna cooked for a big family and didn't have time to track all of the different recipes she prepared, so when her grandson asked what kind of fish she cooked, she replied, "It's a dead fish!" The seafood is, in fact, dead, but it's all good. Nonna's world famous killer crab -- a whole Dungeness crab weighing in at two pounds plus and roasted in a secret garlic sauce -- is a big seller, as is "A Nice Piece of Bass," and "Dead Fish Stew." Landlubbers will appreciate the prime rib and seared filet mignon on the "Other Dead Things," menu. Desserts like tiramisu with raspberry-mango coulis or chocolate fourplay fondue will bring a flat-lining appetite right back to life.
