The Mitchell's Fish Market is an American seafood restaurant chain founded in 1998 by restaurateur Cameron Mitchell of Columbus, Ohio.

Starting from a single location opened in 1998 in Columbus called the "Columbus Fish Market",[2] by 2006, the chain had 12 locations.[3] The chain formed part of the Cameron Mitchell Restaurants[4] group until 2008,[5] when the then-22 unit chain, including 19 Fish Market units, was sold to Ruth's Chris Steak House (later renamed Ruth's Hospitality Group) for $92 million.[6][7]

In late 2014, Landry's, Inc. acquired the chain from Ruth's for $10 million,[8] a fraction of the 2008 sale price. The deal included 18 Mitchell’s Fish Market locations and three steakhouse units.[9]

As of January 2018, there are 14 Mitchell's locations.[10][11][12][13]
