I scored some fabulously fresh halibut at the farmer's market yesterday, so I made this recipe using halibut. It was superb! I found I had no green olives, so I used nicoise olives, and they worked quite well. Unsalted butter bound the sauce very nicely. Fresh corn on the cob and sauteed swiss chard rounded out the meal. This recipe was quick to put together and good enough to serve guests.

Fantastic! Because they were available, and it was convenient, I added pencil thin asparagus spears to the pan when I added the fish- it was superb!

This is a good recipe. I'm not sure why it's referred to as "Cuban Style". The recipe is a classic Italian treatment of any white fish. For those who haven't the acquired taste for capers they are easily left out but the olives and cilantro are definitely an important part of the flavour.

Definitely one of the best fish recipes ever!! Only thing is that I didn't have a few things, so I made some changes. I added red pepper in with the onion and garlic. I skipped the tomatos (don't like them). I swapped out fresh basil for the cilantro. Even with those changes - it was awesome!!

I thought this recipe was pretty tasty. I did enjoy the different flavors in the dish, with a little tang every time you bit into a green olive but I did not LOVE it. So... 4 it is. It's definitely not something I'd send back. It's just not something I'd order twice.

I made this last Friday for family and friends. It was such a great success! It's the best sea bass I have ever had. Thank you! I didn't follow the recipe exactly in a sense that I had to double it and didn't have enough olive and caper. But still it came out perfect. I served it with rice and black beans, as many reviewers did. Everyone at the table raved about the dinner and we cleaned the plates. :) This is definitely a keeper in our house.

I made this for a dinner party of 6. It was perfect and very gormet. The salty capers and olives season the fish perfectly. Very colorful and impressive presentation. Definately company fare!

It tasted divine! I followed the recipe except I used black olives instead of the stuffed green type. It was sooo good, my sister and her husband enjoyed it a lot and she requested for me to cook it again for a dinner party she is hosting for 12. This time I will use the stuffed green olives.

A Wonderful Recipe! I don't even like to cook fish at home but this was worth it. I bought Striper at Trader Joes and used that. It's a great fish- not too stinky! Will make it again for company!

We all enjoyed this recipe. I used trout and canned tomatoes because that's what I had on hand, skipped the capers (don't like them) but otherwise held to the recipe. It was really nice and the kids loved the olives.

This is an excellent recipe for sea bass. I love all the flavors in the various ingredients. However, this is a sea bass recipe and if you are not a big fan of sea bass (like me) this will not change your mind. I may try this recipe with another fish.

I was sceptic when I tasted it before letting is simmer as the wine was really strong. BUT....I was wrong. Letting it all simmer down and then adding the butter made this delicious. My hubby was licking his plate. I doubled the sauce and used canned diced tomatoes. Totally forgot about the adding the herb at the end....I cant even remember which one it was but I didn't miss it a bit. I highly encourage giving this a try! yummy!
