Fishbones Chelmsford

I have been going to Fishbones of Chelmsford for a long time. The first visit was in the pre-blogging days. Beware of the annoying music on the website.


If you are close enough to see the sign for parking you have missed the parking entrance by about 50 yards. Yes, this was the kind of day we are having today.


The inside is nice and bright. The bar goes all the way around into the second dining room.


I think this is the best seats in the house. You can watch the chefs working and the waitresses squeezing by one another. This is a longtime favorite here, Sesame Yellow Fin Tuna Steak Sandwich ($16) cooked rare. "Sushi grade yellowfin, toasted sesame seeds, brioche roll, pickled ginger, wasabi, seaweed salad, lettuce, tomato, pickle. Choice of two sides". For my sides, I went with their outstandingly good french fries, and cucumber and tomato salad. I have never seen the salad before and it turns out it is only available during the summer. It was a really fresh mix of veggies that were cut into a perfect brunoise. The tuna was cooked as ordered and the quality of the tune was exceptional. It cut like butter and there wasn't a sinew to be found. They have finally removed the "marinated in sesame oil" since dipping the fish in the oil before tossing it on the grill isn't really marinating. Service is always excellent here.
