Kingfisher Bar and Grill

If your palate delights in the unknown and unexpected--especially when it comes to sauces--you should know that Kingfisher delivers in a big way. Their infamous Summer Road Trip menu (May-August) focuses on regional cuisine and changes every two weeks. Looking for salmon? You'll never get it the same way twice. How about as a Sonoran masala with cucumber sauce? Yeah, baby! Grilled halibut with oyster crème sauce and coconut crusted mahi-mahi with a mango barbecue sauce? Just another example of a delightfully extreme sauce situation. A full bar, separate lunch and late-night menus (open until midnight), and an unpretentious ambience make this the complete seafood-restaurant package.
