There is no excuse for fish soup/broth/bisque/other euphemism.
Shame they don't do shellfish. Does that extend to cephalopods? Some stunning stuffed squid/cuttlefish etc recipes floating around.
I'd say depends on levels of what you can be bothered to do.
For a fishy starter then smoked fish is generally well received by my pesky pesci buddies. I've done this (without the bacon garnish) which was surprisingly easy and very impressive: http://www.greatbritishchefs.com/recipes/smoked-fish-platter-recipe
It's a fair bit of effort but not complicated and can be prepped the day before.
Are they fussy about things being fully cooked? If you can get good quality tuna it's always so A. delicious, B impressive on the plate when seared properly. Also no worries about doing something stupid like overcooking the main:

Cheesecake's not a bad shout for a desert.
Either something rich like that or maybe something tarter like a sorbet? Maybe some grilled fruit with honey and vanilla cream?
