JO fishbar in Lugano

A little place in the center, few places but excellent fish-based food! I tried both the sandwiches and the first courses and they are very tasty and well made! I recommend the octopus sandwich

Small bar/restaurant serving fish cuisine. Few dishes on the menu, but well cooked. Large portions compared to the Swiss average. Excellent quality/price.

Fresh and delicicious. Great service.

The restaurant is in a very quiet area close to Lake Lugano, inside the market opposite the lake. I highly recommend it. The pasta is very delicious with fresh seafood. I really enjoyed it and would have liked to try other dishes, but the dish was very filling. Thanks to my direct brother Andrea, he was very helpful and helpful. Don't miss it, honestly. I ordered pasta, cola and espresso after eating The account is 34.5 francs.

I ordered sea food pasta. Was Very salty and average!

Enjoyed an excellent pleasant dinner. Good aperitif with oysters and prosecco. Excellent dishes. Care in service. Tried the octopus sandwich and the mussels. Generous portions

What a pity! It was a beautiful, welcoming place and above all we ate excellent seafood menus. This is no longer the case. I'll have to look elsewhere

We had dinner last night. We immediately felt pampered by the staff! Excellent food! Staff helpful and punctual in accommodating our requests! All perfect! Highly recommended!

Never again.. Everything bad and cold. It was recommended to me by trusted people and after we complained... The coldest indifference

Small menu with good quality fish items.

Unfortunately, what was a beautiful and delicious restaurant, which I had discovered and appreciated since it opened, it has lost in quality and choice of dishes (especially the first courses have "disappeared") while the prices have increased considerably.. a shame, fortunately the choice of this type is quite wide in Lugano and beyond the border..

Comfortable place, different daily menus as recommended by the chef, good and super fast service, overall satisfying, and will come back here again...

Best sea-food restaurant in Lugano. The portions are extremely generous and delicious and fresh. The waiter was the nicest one I’ve seen in my life. Recommend this place 100 times.

We enjoyed a great lunch here. The service was great. Our waiter was very helpful and spoke good Englsh. He advised on what to have and which wines for us to taste and select. The truffle bread was delicious. I had linguini a la mare, which was excellent. Afterwards, we shared a tiramisu, which was good, but I've had better. No complaints and everything was very fresh.

Small restaurant that only offers fish and seafood. Unfortunately the menu is only available in Italian but the boss speaks German well!

The menu is changed daily depending on what’s fresh. The truffle bread for the table is addictive. We had a refreshing octopus salad, very tasty calamara pasta with prawns and bottarga and a paella. Everything is perfect.

Absolutely perfect salmon sandwich. Fresh taste and excellent balance of ingredients, this is how it’s done. Bravissimo!

Oysters and the raw fish plate was amazing 🤌🏻 bellissimo

This seafood restaurant is great! The quality of the food was excellent and the service was incredible. The waitress was extremely kind and accommodating, always ready to provide advice and make us feel comfortable. I really appreciated the freshness of the seafood and the artistic presentation of the dishes. Furthermore, the atmosphere of the restaurant was welcoming and relaxing.

Excellent fish dishes, also served as a crudité version (carpaccio and tartare). Fair prices.

Best fish restaurant with super friendly staff!

Wow, tasty food and very good service, the best fish restaurant in Lugano!

Very welcoming atmosphere, very good food... friendly and professional service... very satisfied.

Good service and nice food. I ordered the lobster pasta. It had a tomato base sauce and the pasta was cooked well. It was served with half lobster.

A great place to combine quality and informal

NICE DISCOVERY!!!! We had a great time where we enjoyed an excellent lunch not only thanks to the goodness of what we ate, but also thanks to the always attentive and courteous service. The starters were good and the linguine with seafood was delicious.... An experience to be repeated as soon as possible !!!

Fresh sea food and wonderful paella on Thursdays. Service great also. Highly recommended.

JO Fishbar was a great find. First of all, the food is of very good quality, the flavor is unique.

Friendly waitress Pasta of the day at 28.-: linguine with arsgosta Cold, black lobster inside Tasteless sauce No discount for inconvenience

Delicious sandwiches! All ingredients were fresh and tasty. Flavors are well balanced, and not too salty like other places in this city. Portions are generous, and staff are very friendly.

Great food, I love to come to this place.

Great lunch! The fish was fresh and well cooked, the prices were honest and the staff were friendly. We will be back for sure!

I came from Locarno by train to eat at Jo Fishbar, it was cuiso (but on the Google map, it was open)

Wrong opening times, was mentioned as opened but was closed! At least update

Amazing food…😱😍😋 first time in Lugano and I think everytime we will be here, we want to eat here.

Wonderful restaurant in a quiet square, ideal for Sunday lunch. The food is fresh and delicious, the prices very reasonable and the service is friendly. We will definitely come back here !

Very nice place and service. Tartar and octopus were super!

Was invited there by a friend. Unassuming restaurant but the food was very good! Tagliolini al granchio was excellent. Nice service and quick service. 👍

Top notch service of food cooked from the heart. We arrived slightly early for dinner service, but they were all happy to receive us and prepare dinner for us. For mains, we had the grilled octopus and tuna steak. Tuna steak was served perfectly medium rare as requested, while grilled octopus was the most tender and juicy one we have ever had. We had just come from a lovely Michelin star meal nearby, but the food and hospitality here made us fuller and happier. 6/5 would recommend!

Very good, very kind and helpful staff.

only 4* because of the lobster Otherwise everything is good

Great place for fresh dishes at a low price but of very high quality

Beautiful surprise in Lugano. Fresh fish, friendly service and a pleasant atmosphere this summer 2022. Panacota and Tiramisu out of 10!

Amazing friendly staff, delicious aperol and seafood - definitely worth a stop!

The food and the service was great. We came back second time during the trip. The fish was fresh and delicious!

Delicious food, lovely staff. The best restaurant I tried in Lugano, I will come back.

Excellent quality and price at the top then Redeo Numero 1

delicious fish in lugano! nice and delicious dishes. worth it!

I was very disappointed. We didn’t even order. The menu items on Google maps are all unavailable as they are only for lunch but that was not clear on their site. There is no children’s menu except after deliberating inside he said they can make us pasta with tomatoes for the children. We decided to not eat and found somewhere else

Nice place to have some fish gourmet bites. Friendly staff!👌

Great seafood and a very nice service.

Great food with a very nice service. We had fresh oysters and grilled octopus. The octopus was one of the best we tasted (didn't have it so perfectly cooked since childhood). We really recommend it.

Very friendly staff and great gourmet fish sandwiches! We'll be back!

The food was good and well presented. There were several mistakes in the orders, such that one of the plates was served when everyone else was almost done eating.

Very fresh fish and exquisite dishes. Inside the place is very nice and welcoming, the staff friendly and kind.

Best fish sandwich ever! Tuna and orange is my baby

Cute little place with fresh seafood. A good alternative to the pasta & pizza places in town.

Spaghetti with clams below expectations. Pasta not flavored with a valid sauce, but not enough to give flavor to the linguine. Good raw fish, with delicious sauces. Very good Lugana wine (Montonale).

Lovely seafood!! We ordered the moscardini in umido (stewed baby octopus), ravioli gamberi e capesante con ragù di branzino (shrimp and scallop ravioli with sea bass ragu) and calamaro ripieno con caponata (stuff squid with aubergine and mixed vegs). They were all delicious and full of flavour. Friendly staff, cosy setting and reasonable prices :)

Excellent raw fish served with care at reasonable prices in the center of Lugano. I recommend it to all lovers of refined, tasty and light dishes.

The best spot for fish / seafood in Lugano by far! Definitely go check it out! The fresh fish is so delicious and the price is fantastic. Location is super central as well and staff is very friendly!! Probably my new favorite spot to get food in the city.

Subliminal taste experience. The food was fantastic, the fish has never been so good at an affordable price. Abundant and rich dishes. I'll be back. I highly recommend! :-)

Gorgeous seafood. Very friendly stuff and cozy interior. Highly recommend.

Excellent fish in a very particular location Impeccable service and prices appropriate to the product offered A lunch during your work break is perfect. Thanks to all the staff

Generous portions, excellent quality/price.

Excellent stuffed squid, on parmigiana-style aubergine

Nice fish bar in the center of Lugano. Very attentive service, friendly and good fish. I had swordfish. Not for people who don't like fish ;)

Super good, perfect for seafood lovers 🦞 Possibility of eating on site and the staff is very friendly.

Good choice of fish dishes to take away, they vary every day and have very good prices for being in the center of Lugano! Excellent cuisine and quality fish! Very friendly staff!

An excellent discovery in the center of Lugano, excellent raw materials, excellent sandwiches, friendly and quick, perfect place for a lunch break when you want to eat something tasty, highly recommended

Very kind and delicious octopus!

Very kind gentlemen, and excellent quality fish.

Got takeaway twice, the first sandwich was exceptional (Octopus sandwich), the second a step below (Sword and lime). They are not the cheapest sandwiches in Lugano, but they are certainly excellent in quality.

Here every meal brings you closer to paradise
