restaurant redfish
Okay, so I went out to eat the other night in Daphne; the waitress said the special was redfish. This isn't the first time, I've heard this a lot recently. I thought redfish couldn't be sold commercially. Am I wrong?

Re: restaurant redfish
I work at The Fish House in Pensacola and we serve fresh redfish. I don't know if it is farm raised or wild caught though.

Re: restaurant redfish
Catfish, tilapia and occasionally tuna are the ONLY finfish I order in restaurants.
ASK to see the 'paper trail' where it came from. it is your right as a seafood consumer! :headbang:(RETIRED) mostly.
