Welcome to Fishbone's Rhythm Kitchen Cafe and step into a dining and entertainment experience like no other.

This upscale seafood, steak and sushi house boasts an extensive menu of Creole and classic American fare, including prime steaks and chops, fresh fish, pastas and daily specials.

In Short
The sound of jazz resonates as the smell of Cajun spices seduces incoming diners. The food is straight out of the French Quarter, as catfish atchafalaya, snapper beausoleil, alligator voodoo and Bayou caviar bring Louisiana flavor to Michigan. Fishbone's uses a milder, more flavorful blend of spices and herbs during the blackening process, but hot sauces are available to please those in search of heat.

After visiting for the Final Four games, I will NEVER visit this Fishbone's again. I have visited the one in St. Clair Shores multiple times and loved everything, and expected the same from this one. However after a while of watching the game, the bartenders came over and said "Here's your tip" which we found out from someone else was that he thought we tipped $0.75 on a $40 bar tab. We never even had a bar tab! I paid cash for each round and tipped. This was very unprofessional and not acceptable in my book for how a bartender at a nice restaurant should act. Even if that had been true they wouldn't have deserved a tip, since a tip is earned. Then to top that off as we walked out the door to leave one of the other bartenders ran out after us and called us inappropriate names. We don't even know the reasoning behind their actions because he ran back inside and they all refused to talk with us. Which means they know that we did nothing wrong in reality since they wouldn't discuss their issues with us. Wouldn't go back if you paid me unless those bartenders were fired.

This place has gone WAY WAY down hill from its former glory days years ago. Service was terrible, the food was bland, and sloppy, and those fun plates of various hot sauces.. all gone.. I would never go back, and our entire party left with thoughts of "thats it?" and "that was terrible". Avoid.. its not the Fishbone's it used to be.
