Salmon or Tilapia?

I have to finalize my menu tomorrow and we have to choose between Salmon and Tilapia for our fish. I say more ppl would want Tilapia, FH says Salmon. What do you ladies think?

I LOVE all kinds of seafood....Tilapia I find to be like flounder...sole....Boring.with not much flavor...it takes on the flavor of how it was prepared..I voted Salmon. When you have a good salmon....the flavor by itself is wonderful.

Hmm. It just says Grilled Salmon and Tilapia Oreganata. Both served with Mushroom Risotto and Veggies. I'm not a fish eater so idk.

I'd pick salmon just because I'm more likely to cook tilapia at home and I like eating something I dont generally cook at home when I go to a wedding.

In my opinion more people prefer salmon because tilapia has a 'dirty' taste sometimes because it is a bottom feeder in the ocean. I personally love both.

I'd go with the salmon, then.

We chose the salmon and it was one of the meals we ordered at the wedding and it was delicious and a pretty popular choice.

I'd go Salmon.

I like Tilapia but like others said, its a fish you buy at the supermarket and prepare at home...salmons a little more of a treat. We went with Salmon for our menu.

HTH!

Salmon tends to be dried out at large events so Id go with the Tilapia.

Re: Salmon or Tilapia?

They're both good, but I'd say salmon. A lot of times salmon can be made into a more elegant dish imo

Re: Salmon or Tilapia?

I love both but I picked salmon. It's more of what I would think would be on a wedding menu for some reason It's also what I would choose between the two!

Re: Salmon or Tilapia?

DEF tilapia. Salmon is the usual wedding fish..I think ppl on the whole are tired of it. Ive never had salmon that was absolutely delish at a wedding. tilapia is mild and not the usual. aside from halibut, its my fav!
