Meet Bossa — your favorite new neighborhood fish spot.

Bossa Fish isn’t just a fresh seafood restaurant, it’s a vibe. Bossa, a slang Portuguese word meaning “the new style”, has a vibrant setting that evokes and embraces influences from botecos in Rio de Janeiro and seaside dining along the Portuguese coast all while hip hop or samba play in the background. Whether you come for a burger, a local IPA, the fresh catch from our fish counter, or just an espresso, we strive to give you an authentic experience.

Bossa is all about quality. Quality seafood, quality ingredients, and quality service. From our homemade sauces to our handmade crab cakes, everything is made on premises. We also offer a selection of steak, chicken and pork dishes for our land lovers.
