Is it OK to complain in a restaurant owned by a family member?

I’m at a restaurant owned by a distant family member. I ordered fish, and asked specifically if it was fresh. The answer was in the affirmative. But it came, and is obviously not fresh at all. Tasteless, not flaky and moist. It is a $25 dish, so I’m pretty peeved. But I hesitate to complain because of the family connection. The owner (my distant cousin) has given my party of 4 a round of drinks on the house. Any advice, fluther? Can I politely complain in this situation, or would it be best to let it go?
Edited to add: this reletive is the second cousin of my first cousin. I will never see him again or interact in any way except to come to this restaurant in the future. I am at dinner with my first cousin, his gf, and Capt_Bloth.
