We always enjoy our date nights at JAX for many reasons. The service is outstanding, the atmosphere is fun and energetic, and the food is amazing. I am writing this for my husband as a Celiac patient to share my experience. They make everything fresh in house, so almost every item on the menu can be made GF, and they even have a designated fryer! The calamari is to die for, the fries are delicious, and the seafood is very fresh every time. We enjoy eating our dinner at the bar and interacting with the servers. They are well versed in the menu, the wine list, and they all make it an experience and not just another meal out. Thank you JAX for the excellence!

Went for happy hour and while there were limited choices on the menu found that the server was knowledgeable. When I expressed my concern about avoiding gluten she shared that they have a dedicated fryer for GF and could fry up calamari in a rice flour! I also requested French fries and to have them fried in the GF oil. While they don’t offer a GF option of cracker for the oysters the rest of the options made it worth it. Their peel and eat shrimp are the best!!!

Today is national oyster day! My family feasted on versions of different oysters: cooked and raw, ahi poke bowl, and mussels. The food was incredible. Service was great! Will definitely be back!

I’ve dined at Jax countless times and have never been sick! The menu rotates but I never have any trouble finding something suitable and the wait staff is incredibly knowledgeable. Many of the menu items can be modified to accommodate gluten free and it’s always delicious! Their gluten free calamari is amazing

If you are looking for a good seafood dinner, look no further than Jax Fish House in old town Ft. Collins. They have a number of gf dishes, including fried calamari that was so good we ordered another plate. The halibut was every bit as good as I have had in Alaska and the Shrimp and grits were amazing. They fly the fish in daily. Imagine a seafood restaurant that had no smell of fish. The servers and staff were very attentive when told my wife was celiac. Outside of the desserts (a little disappointing) the whole experience was fantastic.

Told the hostess when we made the reservation that I have celiac disease and they were ready when we got there. Our waitress was super knowledgeable about what was safe and what wasn’t and had the chef make me GF calamari in the designated fryer. Didn’t get sick, staff was awesome, and food was delicious

This place rocks! The servers are well trained and knowledgeable about the items that have gluten. They will also go out of their way to make almost anything on their menu for you. I wanted fried calamari and they coated it in rice starch and fried it in a separate pan! Since everything is made to order and nothing is pre breaded anything is possible here. Delicious too.
