Been to Peche and GW Fins multiple times, but looking for other places that have whole fish, family-style on their menu.

Thanks.

Some of the Chinese/Vietnamese places might have it. I think 9 Roses in Gretna serves whole fish, head and all.

Pelican Club for sure.

Several Vietnamese restaurants and a couple of African ones, as well.

Cochon. ETA: my bad, fisherman’s style is not whole.

Gotta come try the whole fish over here (BSL) at Thorny Oyster. It’s been red snapper the few times I’ve had it. Damn good.

Have been to saba 3 times. I got the fish there the last time and it was terrible. Have had one good experience and two at saba. Not going back

Sukho Thai on Royal does a three-flavor or lime-steamed (my preference) whole fish that's good

Compere Lapin has a nice whole fish I had about a year ago. Still on the menu: Whole Roasted Branzino/Carrot/Pepita Vinaigrette

I enjoy a whole fish to change it up, but I honestly think its over rated and a really good filet or cooked individual piece is much better.

Is there something specific you are looking for OP? Its not hard to bake a whole fish yourself. I've done the Salt cover a couple of times, grilled whole, baked, etc.

It does and it's very good. I wouldn't call it family style though.

Smoke and Honey is a good space, but I have only been there for lunch

Did not know they had started doing a dinner menu until that McNulty story
