Story

Great food like jazz is spontaneous and joyful. Nothing warms the palate like an explosion of flavor or the heart like a burst of song! We are passionate about ethnic flavors & jazz, and that’s why we’ve branded our unique take on sushi & Asian specialties: Thelonious Monkfish. We love to jam on Asian culinary themes. Our menu reflects both our respect for gustatory tradition and our sense of play and innovation.

Our fish is so fresh it blows its own horn!

The interior features reclaimed old-growth oak, old barn board, plush brown leather chairs, waterfall slate mosaics, sconces reminiscent of puffer fish and a section with tatami mats for traditional Japanese seating.

“From the excellent service to the fantastic flavors, this eclectic Asian eatery got it right. And all at an affordable price. Whether you’re a longtime sushi lover, or brand new to the dish altogether, Thelonious Monkfish can open your eyes and ears to a new dining experience.” --Weekly Dig

Great food as per usual! We did family style with a party boat, a mango fried rice, two noodle bowls. We were really hungry! I have never had even a mediocre meal at this place. The service was typically prompt Over the past 5 years I have eaten here easily 20 times. It's impressive that they have kept the quality up so high!

This is one of those places that you always pass by but never notice it. When you do walk in and try it out, you still be kicking your past self for never noticing or trying it out earlier. They serve a great selection of inspired sushi and drinks. It's a great place in central square to bring out of town friends to in wc weekend night, just be aware that it gets busy. Live music is a plus.

Very nice place. Busy even on a Tuesday night. Went with coworkers when in town on a course. I had a spicy BBQ pork dish and a hot (meaning spicy) suishi roll special. Very tasty. Excellent coffee to finish. Good service. Very fast food delivery.

What a cool spot! Been here several times and it never disappoints. If you get there without reservations and have to wait, the bar is great to hang at. Cocktails are on point, and they even have live piano and jazz music. Only complaint I can think of is the menu is almost too vast and interesting, but hey that's a #GOODPROBLEM

Great place. They have jazz on the weekends and brunch. Loved the curry noodle special and the fairytale sushi is good. Love love love ancient fried rice and the spicy tuna over crispy rice. Large menu so everyone can find something they like.
