Sisters Muzit Evans and Senait Beyene are the partners in the new West Seattle Fish House which opened late in the day on Oct. 10 and instantly drew a crowd there to sample the new restaurant's offerings. Located at 9005 35th s.w. they occupy part of the former On Safari Foods space. The West Seattle Herald covered the former resident's new location last March.

The first time resterauteurs, who are originally from Eritrea, have retail experience and worked for years, saving their money to establish the business. They have a very experienced chef, Anthony Mohammed whose Tacoma Fish House Cafe was his business for 21 years before he turned it over to his son in 2000. He was originally going to be a consultant but after the partners sampled fish from restaurants around the region, his was the most popular. He will stay on for at least the next few months and might be there on a permanent basis.
The new eatery will serve Wild Pacific Cod, Wild Snow Cod (they are cousins Muzit explained), Tilapia, Wild Salmon in 2 piece, 3 piece, and 5 piece sizes all with french fries. Canned soda and bottled water complete the casual meal. Compared to other area fish and chip offerings their prices are very reasonable with the 2 piece Pacific Cod going for $6.99. There are plans to add clam chowder, chicken strips and wing drumettes as well as shrimp in the next few weeks. They have not decided as yet on adding a caesar salad but that is a possibility.
It's a cash only business for now until they get their credit card capability running but for the next week there is a $1 off introductory price. That discount will continue for students and seniors however.
They will be open from 11 am to 7 pm, seven days a week.
You can call ahead and order your food to go, which is a good idea since parking and seating are both a little limited (only 12 people can sit inside).
