    One piece fish and chips
    Alan J.

    The service is amazing. The wait is really long. The chips are amazing. The fish was a bit chewy and dense. The batter is light and seasoned. The tartar sauce is amazing. The three piece looks like a great deal for two or three to share.

    Fish and chip quality here is top notch. Don't skip on the fish, prawns or onion rings. They perfectly fry the batter, serve it HOT for you to enjoy. Eat it inside, you won't regret it. Parking lot is small, but there is street parking to the left of the store. Service is nice, quick and friendly. Ambiance feels like a mom and pop shop with the son running the business which is nice to see. Definitely don't skip out on this if you have cravings!!!

    Excellent fish
    Sharon C.

    Fish was excellent. Need to upgrade the fries. Awful. Suggestion to place labels on the ketsup, tartar sauce, ranch and cocktail sauce. All in squeeze bottles but you couldn't tell what is what. We will be back. Love the light breading and not greasy. Zucchini was excellent as well

    Zucchini $6 (5/5) homemade ranch was so good!

    We came to Big Fish because we were craving some fish and chips. We ordered the 3pc fish and chips and the fried zucchini. The food was great! Breading was very thin and crispy. The fish was a BIG portion and it was very moist. The fries are equally important as the fish and they were done to perfection. The restaurant was very clean with a great drink selection and casual ambiance. The service was amazing as well. They even went to Trader Joe's to get some extra lemons for us. Amazing!! We would definitely come back again. We think kimchi would go really well with this!

    Onion rings and zucchini

    The fish is amazing, everything is cooked fresh. I had the fish, fried oysters, zucchini, onion rings, and French fries. Everything was slightly battered, super crispy and delicious. Even cold it was delicious and crispy. Small place but great

    3 big pieces of fish n chips

    Walked to trader joes on Thursday and my friends and I smelled something hella good, it was coming from Big Fish. So on Friday my friend and I placed an order both getting the 3 piece fish n chip combo for $18.99 a little pricey but money well spent. We got back to our office to eat since the restaurant was packed, apparently they went viral on tik tok. The food was so amazing perfect crunch and taste. Definitely recommend and I see why they went viral.

    A lovely small eatery for fish and chips! Classic b&w checkered flooring with good seating and cafe tables. I shared breaded Alaskan Pollock with a couple pieces of fried zucchini and onion. These were large fish pieces! The chips or fresh French fries were well sized and delicious. Everything is fried fresh and well done. Ketchup and tartar sauce bottles are on the side as dips or toppings, as well as vinegar at the table. This was a fun dine in experience for a nice quick bite. Perhaps food can also be taken out at Portal Park nearby.

    Fish and prawns (half eaten) Onions rings and a zucchini

    The fish was excellent, very fresh and crispy. The prawns were pretty good. The fries were nice, traditional with chips. I also got the onion rings (and the threw in a zucchini). Both I would recommended. Will be back with the wifey!

    Big Fish on Folsom Blvd is one of those spots that quietly overdelivers. First of all -- the ranch dressing deserves its own paragraph. I don't know what they're putting in it, but it's hands down some of the best ranch I've had at a restaurant. Creamy, flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and somehow good on everything. I was dipping fries, hush puppies, broccoli...basically anything I could justify. The fried food is where they really shine. Everything has that ultra-crispy, golden crunch on the outside while staying juicy and tender inside. You can taste the Asian-inspired flavors in the seasoning and sauces -- bold, savory, slightly sweet, and seriously addictive. It's comfort food but elevated with really well-balanced flavors. The customer service was top tier. The staff was genuinely kind, attentive, and welcoming. Not rushed, not distracted -- just good, solid hospitality. Made me feel like I was being cooked for at someone's house. You can tell they care about the experience as much as the food. Great flavors, amazing ranch, and awesome service. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to.

    Seen there was new owners again. I came here when it was rhetorical OG Cape Cod. Cape cod was king!! Then it became PJ's fish and chips but PJ's sucked more than BJ's IYKYK. Big fish was good but there was a few things I didnt like. The fish was good it was well battered, the flavor was there but.... The fish was a cheaper quality. Alaskan pollack instead of Cod. The pieces of fish were small af. They gave me a big onion ring and some zucchini slices with my order. The fries looked a lil too brown, maybe they were double fried. We had to go ask for forks we had to go ask for lemons. The lemons were nasty they were in a container that looked like it was on the fridge for the past week. They were slimy yet dry if that makes sense. The customer service was alright, the guy taking the order spoke very little English so it was hard for him to understand my questions and my order. The vibe in there was chill, it wasnt to bright, when we first got there it was dead but I guess we brought business cuz it got busy quick. Besides the Alaskan Pollack fish they also had catfish as an option. The calamari that I ordered was also good but they cut em in a different way that i'd never seen they were like little scoops. I'd be back to try it again, it's no Cape COD thats for sure. If u never had cape cod then ur good cuz u wont be comparing them to each other. Bring ur own lemon, if they can get fresher ones then they should step their game up. The fish quality too step that up cuz Alaskan Pollack always feel chewy.

    Two piece fish with mushrooms.

    Great fish & fried mushrooms. This place is really good. They need our neighborhood business!

    Onion rings (about 1/2 the order)

    Super clean and owner(s) very nice. We ordered (poetions were generous/huge): 1) 9 piece fish & chips for a group -5/5. Very yum. Oil and fish were both fresh. Came out of fryer super crispy and perfecrly cooked - not greasy (fries were good too); 2) onion rings - 5/5 maybe best i have had; 3) lumpia - 5/5 also very good; 4) oysters -4/5 very good; 5) zucchini - 5/5 very good. The tartar sauce and cocktail sause super good The fish was alaskan pollak. Super delicate fish and thw owners know how to handle it.

    Big Fish has a wide variety of food such as kimchi, to plates with crispy fish and teriyaki. There's definitely something for everyone and you do not need to just get the fish although I highly recommend it because it's fantastic! The service is fast and easy. The restaurant is clean inside with plenty of seating at the counter or the tables. Placing an order is easy with the kind customer service and you get your order in a reasonable amount of time. I plan to come back again to try more things on the menu. I highly suggest you check this place out!

The parking station is a bit small but there's a plaza right next door that does have better/more parking! There is also a mural painted on the side of the shop which is cute! The shop itself is a bit small and run down but the staff was very nice and it seemed like they had many regulars! There are a few booths, which aren't the biggest so big parties will be a bit cramped but my s/o and I brought the fish n chips home and they were still very crispy after 20-30 minutes. We waited only about 10-15 minutes for our order to be brought out to us! I got the: - 1 fish 4 prawns combo: The fish was waaaay bigger then I thought! The prawns were delicious and the fish batter was crunchy and crispy but the inside was soft and flakey and which I liked! The tartar sauce with a bit of vinegar paired perfectly with the fish! The chips were a bit flavorless though and I wish there was a little bit of salt on it. They also included an extra fish onto my s/o order which was nice!! This definitely satisfied my fish and chips craving for a while! I definitely recommend trying this place if you got a craving for fried seafood!

The cashier was friendly and they don't force asking tip down your throat either. Inside seems a bit run down but it's in old town EG and has a bit of history so it matches the vibes. I got the three piece fish and chips to go and it comes with two tartar sauce and ketchup. The fries are decently salted and crispy. The fish was great, large and crispy. It had plenty of meat inside each one and was cooked perfectly. Overall would come again and eat at the place to try other things on the menu as well as have the fish and chips again.

The game room is off to the left when you enter and the main seating area and bar is to the right. We had the entire game room to ourselves as pretty much everyone else was there to eat and drink. Worked in our favor. Eventually we did order some food though. I got the French dip with a side of clam chowder and my daughter got a pepperoni pizza. Pizza was mid, French tip was kinda fatty and chewy and the dip was a little lacking. Oddly though, the clam chowder was bomb. Super flavorful. I would come back just for the soup if nothing else. Main reason for lack of stars was service. It was deathly slow and damn near non existent. And it was a random Wednesday so not like it was super busy. They had 2 people behind the bar and maybe 15 people total in there. Granted, only 5 of the people were seated at the bar and already had drinks. I stood at the bar for 10 minutes before being acknowledged and another 5 before ordering.
