Never heard of Scalibut? We’re not surprised 🙂. It’s a GW Fins original created by Executive Chef Mike Nelson. He takes a filet of dense, meaty halibut and sears thin slices of buttery scallops on top.

Don’t think you see the scallops? Look again! They’re the beautifully golden brown pieces.

Guests have raved about this dish since 2011!

“Words cannot express how delicious this entree was! Not only delicious, it was also stunning to look at. Oh my, oh my, oh my!”

“The Scalibut is everything everyone raves about.”

“The Scalibut is justifiably famous, and you have to have it, delicious.”

Restaurant Week not only brings a great menu at a great price, but it also brings new creations to the table, like this Pineapple Upside Down Cake! 🍍

It’s a soft, buttery cake resting in a shallow pool of rich coconut crème and pineapple caramel, topped with toasted almonds. Paired with a glass of German Schmitt Söhne Eiswein, this is the sweetest ending to a fabulous dining special.

Learn more about what you eat with Fins' Fun Fish Facts! First up is a fish that's frequently on our menu, has a name that raises eyebrows, and often leaves guests saying, "What's that?"

It's Sheepshead...and here are some fun facts about this smiley fish 😁

~ Most famous for their human-like teeth used to crush hard-shelled prey
~ Nicknamed "Convict Fish" from the five or six dark vertical stripes running down their light gray or greenish-silver bodies, which resemble old-school prison jumpsuits
~ Master bait steelers, making them a fun catch for anglers
~ Have a relatively slow growth rate and can live for up to 20 years

At Fins, we often pan fry Sheepshead with a Parmesan crust and serve it with jumbo lump crab, asparagus, truffled potatoes, crispy capers, and Meyer lemon beurre blanc.
