Critics Comments

"This is seafood at its best, but if you're a meat-lover, there's a smattering of game and steaks to choose from. Take a seat at the oyster bar for fresh, flown-in daily shellfish before you hit the dining room. For an appetizer, the generous tuna rolls are tantalizing: Thin slices of sesame-seed-encrusted seared tuna and raw sashimi-grade fish melts in your mouth. Hushpuppies filled with rock shrimp and crawfish are powerful, and the creamy lobster bisque is divine. Enticing entrees such as porcini-crusted grouper and sesame-grilled ahi tuna with soba noodles and soy ginger glaze are winners and plated beautifully." - Lynda A. Stadler, Citysearch.com "...Upstream offers an incomparable dining experience, serving specially prepared lobster, crabmeat, filet, duck, and a varied assortment of fresh and saltwater fish..." - The Critics' Choice "...A thick slab of meltingly perfect wood oven-roasted sea bass on lobster mashed potatoes was exquisitely simple and good. Equally refreshing was the grilled swordfish, precisely cooked, with a rich undercurrent of artichoke risotto and buoyed by a few leaves of peppery arugula and bits of sweet crab..." - Tricia Childress, Creative Loafing
