ahoy @nytimes @priyakrishna the prestige! we’re overwhelmed and our hearts are swollen with pride, thanks to the crew that propelled us onto this compilation of wonderful restaurants in the nation. from our rag tag little pop-ups to our cozy neighborhood restaurant on the corner; we never would have imagined of getting such acclaim. running a restaurant is no cakewalk, and moments to pause, revel, and celebrate are few and far between. but today it feels a little easier. massive gratitude to everyone on the crew at fet-fisk, past and present- we love you and couldn’t have made it without you. deep thanks to all of our lovely customers and beloved regulars who give us a chance to do what we love to do the most every single day. we love serving you. here’s to the bright future of fet-fisk. skål!

top 14 best new restaurants … speechless thank you @eater !!!! from our initial feature by them earlier this year for local pittsburgh establishments, to the esteemed top 14 nationwide list, we couldn’t be more appreciative we love food, we love people, and we love what we’re doing — so to receive that recognition from others who feel the same remains a humbling and affirming experience ❤️‍🩹 thank you for seeing us, thank you for supporting us, and thank you for letting us serve you! the honor is all ours ⭐️🦐⭐ (and the biggest thanks of all to our crew , we couldn’t do it without us) looks like we had a little speech after all … link to the article in our stories :) 📸 credits to: @adammilliron & @swan__meat

New astrological-ish approach to our monthly wine recommendations — sat down with one of our (many) in-house Tauruses, the ever-fashionable Izzy, and asked them a few questions. Here’s how that went: What’s your favorite wine at the moment? - the Domaine Mittnacht crémant! What do you like about it? - I love how effervescent it is; it’s really bright on the palette. And especially after a long night of washing dishes, it’s kind of the perfect thing to cut through the grime. What notes do you get from it? - It’s pretty minerality-forward with a bit of citrus — I’m no expert, I just know I like it (how sexy). What would you pair it with for a dinner at fet-fisk? - I love the mussels here, and I feel this would be the perfect thing to pair with the rich broth; cleanse the palette a bit and go back in for another bite. But I think you could have it anytime you want it — start the meal off with it, or for a cheers at the end. What’s your ideal scenario to enjoy this wine in that’s not dinner here? - Well if I can’t be closing dish tank … probably celebrating a milestone. I feel like it’s the perfect celebratory wine. Like I accomplished something, and now I get this treat. Well if that’s not a testament to the crémant we don’t know what is. See you this weekend to enjoy this taurus-approved bubbly 🥂

April showers bring May … salads. Pea and sunflower shoots @coldcofarm dressed in a simple citronette and topped with a mountain of shaved alpine-style cheese @clovercreekcheese . Finished with toasted + smoked hazelnuts for that perfect crunch and to double down on the nuttiness of the shoots. Purple and red baby radishes (also @coldcofarm love you) and their greens tossed together in a vinaigrette of lingonberry juice + honey + salt + lemon + red wine vinegar. Served with house-made ricotta and toasted sunflower seeds. Today is Sunday and more importantly Mother’s Day but we still have meatballs on special and room for those of you who’d like to walk in and just have a regular evening. No pressure. See you soon 🌱

Wowie zowie!!! We passed our two year anniversary mark last month and forgot to mention it! Time flies when you’re having fun? Something like that … It’s hard to believe that we’ve had another trip around the sun as a brick & mortar, mostly fully-functional restaurant! The last year has given us the opportunity to have a little more breathing room than our first and we have been working on honing in many things in many ways, both front and back of house. We’re lucky to have so many staff who have been with us since day one and even pre-day one, and we are grateful for all those that have tried us out even once or have become a beloved regular. We won’t wax too poetic here, but as a business in the business of pleasure, the past year gave us much to celebrate and be proud of, including (but not limited to): 50+ menu designs, constantly beating chicken records, 2 sous chef promotions @idrive_350z @jordan.bozzeli and @pandrhamr becoming chef de cuisine, taking a team trip to chicago to celebrate our @beardfoundation nomination, wine education with @nineoclockwines , partnering with @frickpittsburgh for talk + tasting, continued support from our farm families @be.wild.er @coldcofarm @tinyseedfarm , launchings of three of our former chefs’ own brick and mortars @titusz_pgh @amboy_pittsburgh @elcolibrillc (the latter two coming soon!!), celebrating the holidays with @lobarcocktailservices , karaoke parties hosted by our og maitre d @tresspas.s , furthering our sustainability practices by partnering with @zerowastewrangler , growing our tchotchke and scrap fabric collections, and shucking 77,732 oysters 🦪🦪🦪 And none of it would have been possible without you scallywags. Skål to us!!!!!! 📸 mostly by @lapontelapontelaponte @loveurseff @bofiaaa

The summer sausage special. Say that five times fast. A smoked beef + pork sausage made of strip loin, paprika, chili, fenugreek, caraway, garlic, marjoram, and aquavit. Also with some cream + breadcrumb + oats to bind it all together. Comes with a pickled assortment of shallot, cucumber, and a kohlrabhi + rutabaga kraut. Served with toasted rye crackers + horseradish honey mustard. A whole lot going on to bring you this delicious fisk charcuterie. We’ll be running it as product allows — sometimes we’ll have it and sometimes we won’t. Really just wanted to show off the cow with a flower hat which is just so cute. See you tonight for meatball sunday :)

No draft in Bloomfield and no draft beers or tvs at Fet-Fisk. What we do have is a wealth of cans, oysters, and room for walk-ins! We have a few reservations open tonight for those of you who are less allured by spontaneity. It’s not easy to compete with pop culture icons like Wiz Khalifa and Bret Michaels but we’re still pretty decent at what we do, and we’d love to see you this weekend if you’re feeling fisky ;)

For a very limited time — we have soup! Celeriac and sunchokes cooked down with olive oil and a stock of parmesan rind + mushroom broth + fermented apple juice. It’s brought together with farmers cheese, buttermilk, a little mustard, and a whole lotta herbs. Finished with apple butter on the bottom, fried sunchoke slices, fresh shaved horseradish, @goat_rodeo_cheese goat’s milk gouda, black pepper, and mint. Served chilled. Here today and gone probably next week. We’ll see you soon ;)

Astrological wine prediction ✨ Happy Aries season! Happy spring! Happy astrological new year! Birds are chirping, flowers are blooming, the earth is warming. Aries, the cardinal fire sign, ushers in energy and life, drawing us out of our winter hermit hidey-holes to welcome the newness. To celebrate Aries, we have a wine to match the season. From the Mediterranean island of Sardinia, winemaker @argiolaswinery brings us ‘Costamolino,’ a wine made from the Vermentino grape. A bright, zippy, crisp wine with a floral nose that sings spring and leads to tropical fruit flavors and a hint of salt. So leave the house and come on over to ours to celebrate the fact that you did. We look forward to having you ♈🐏

Yes, we finally have a cardamom bun on our dessert menu. Rye brioche rolled with a filling of orange sugar + cardamom + cinnamon, brushed with brown butter, and baked. Served warm with a coffee crème diplomat that is just … so good. Baked fresh daily, which means we have a limited number per service. Our buttermilk panna cotta has had a little spring update as well — now flavored with ginger + vanilla, and served with a black currant jam. See you tonight :*

Apparently the theme this week is chicken. But in case you didn’t already know, every Monday we do what we like to call … Crispy Monday. It’s the last day of our service week aka our Friday aka the day we run our weekly wing special. Wing flats (from our beloved roasted half chicken) brined in buttermilk + Frank’s Red Hot + fish sauce, dredged in rye + white flour + black pepper, and fried to crispy perfection. Served with an herbed crème fraîche and topped with 3g of Danish sea trout caviar each because why not. We don’t like to take ourselves too seriously and what better way to do that than to go to tahn on some finger foods. Just once a week. Available tonight and every Monday, so don’t be shy. Thank you to Sofia, Riley, and Izzy for showing us how it’s done🍗

*edit: april fools!!* after a lot of consideration, we have decided to take the roasted half chicken off our menu. while we agree with the vast majority of you who say they’ve never had chicken that good at a restaurant, who love the sauce, who became regulars just to enjoy it time and time again … we are a seafood restaurant first and foremost and it’s time to get back to our roots. beyond that, our purveyors simply can’t keep up. what once was a sea of chickens has all but run dry. who knew we’d be breaking our nightly chicken sales records every other week. our grill cooks are bedraggled, and our poor butcher andy can’t even recall any other kind of bird anymore. just chicken. we know this choice will ruffle some feathers (too soon?), but in our hearts we know it is right. no more chicken, which means no more wings on monday, which means we have to get rid of all of our pens that say ‘we opened a seafood restaurant and all we got was this famous chicken.’ there is a whole world of delicious food out there just begging for that chicken spot on our menu. now we’ll truly be able to express ourselves — in the form of a hamburger, perhaps. between what we have in house and our purveyors, we estimate our poultry stores will last us exactly one week. that means if you have a reservation this weekend, you’re in luck! as for everyone else … we’ll be holding a public wake in memoriam, which will feature several eulogies followed by a sky burial of our last remaining roast chicken, whose dying wish is to be lobbed off the roof of the restaurant like a frisbee into the crowd of mourning onlookers to fight over — and be beloved one last time. we may run it as a special once in a blue moon, but removing it from the menu is the right thing to do. thank you for all the chicken love, but as they say: if you love something, let it go ❤️
