Love this place. Most fish and chips I eat at other places put too much breading on the fish making it too heavy. This place however has much lighter breading and you get to taste the fish more than anything. The fries are just your typical fare but they don't taste bad, great amount of salt on the fries. The people who work here are friendly and they always give me my order hot. I love the look of the place too it's very homey. You don't see many places like this anymore. read more

Amazing food amazing service food is always made to order and fresh and go there quite often

Fast service, great food served piping hot delicious. Dan the owner is very kind and friendly.

Store was empty no one to help O just stood there in a empty store. Bad business!!! Ugh

The food was tasty but poor customer service. There were two males working who acted as if I was bothering them by placing a $60 order. Wouldn't accept cash & were hesitant to give me my 98 cent change. Asked if I wanted it, yes, why should they keep it?! Not friendly, unwelcomingDefinitely do not appreciate their customers. read more

Ol boys cranking out fried to order fish and chips here served with a big ol tub of tarter sauce. The fish were cook to perfection. His shrimp with cocktail sauce is really good too. I'll have to try the hush puppies next time! read more

My go to place for fish and chips from where I work. Years ago when I lived in Downey it was an H. Salt. Years later nothing has changed, if anything it's better. Same crunchy non-greasy batter on the fish and tender, flaky meat in the inside and fries the same. Onion rings when they have them are bomb. The dude who works there - not sure if he owns it, sounds like he does - is really cool and down to earth and tells it like it is. That's cool. read more

The fish is a 5/5 and the fries are a 2.5/5. When you're selling fish and chips, those 2 things should both be excellent. This is a small hole in the wall place. No bathroom. The owner is always there and he's a nice guy. read more

Killer fish and chips! Great portions and batter was awesome. Four pieces of fish and fries for like $10! Reminded me of the Uk! Owner was super cool too. Try the onion rings, VERY GOOD! read more

The fish and chips here are pretty decent. It is a little overpriced. The menu you will find in the yelp photos is not accurate. I got the four pice and two pieces were perfect while the two bottom pieces we soggy underneath. There are not many options for fried fish outside of a restaurant so this is an option if you don't want to sit down place. read more

I was very disappointed in the service and quality of the food I received from this fish and chips. I will not be back

Great fish and chips. Prices are very good too. I think our meal came out to under 20 bucks for 2 people. I like that they put the fish on a bed of fried pieces of batter. I know its unhealthy but man is it good! They have plenty of seating, restaurant is very clean and bright. No public restroom though. It is a small mom and pop run place like most fish and chip places. I always liked that about them. Feels nice knowing your money isn't going to some big dbag corporation. Will be back whenever we are in the area. read more

Local place. Been here for many Many years. Fish n chips can't go wrong. I'm a fan of the malted vinegar on my fries. Seems healthier than ketchup. Other types of fried things offered. Only one thing to mention here is that it's cash only read more

The fish isn't bad and you get a decent amount for your money but the chips are subpar at best The guy behind the counter was very nice and quick to help you if you needed anything I was hoping to find a gem in the rough but I rather go down the street to California fish grill next time read more

This is a little gem. The menų is short sweet and to the point. Its very clean and you get your dollars worth. So i would say if you got a craving for some fish and chips. I would say give this place. Chance i dont think you can go wrong. A++ read more

The place is blah. It's basic from the decor to the food. Walk in, order at the counter, and have a seat. It's CASH ONLY! They do have a sign outside, so that's a plus so you know somewhat ahead of time. The inside is bland-- yellow hard booths, and there are about six or seven of them. Not a huge place, but that doesn't matter as long as the food is good. On to the food! The fish was cooked in some old grease, and it was overcooked at that. When I tell you the fish had no flavor ya'll, it tasted like I was eating air. Every bit I had to add salt and I rarely salt my food afterwards. The batter was meh as well! On top of, I like some hot sauce with my fish and the only option they had was Tapatio. I like some Tapatio, but not on my fish and chips...not a good pairing. Please invest in some Louisana, Red Rooster, Tabasco, or even some Texas Pete...something. Now, as for the fries they were crunchy, bland, flavorless excuses for potatoes. I was highly disappointed. If you enjoy tasteless greasy food then come here. This spot is for people who have lost their tastebuds or those who have never experienced the joy of salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika and an abundance of other delicious spices. read more

Solid fish. Solid chips. Friendly dudes. Cheap prices. What more you need? Amazing. 5/5

Googled places for Fish and Chips and this place came up near where I was. First off, I saw the Cash Only sign! The place was empty, ordered three piece fish and chips, the guy said give me 10 minutes. He was very nice and within 8 minutes my order was ready, I was happily craving fish & chips and I was more than satisfied - excellent food and service! I will be back! It was nice and quiet and the place looked nice! read more

These guys are quick and efficient. My order is always Correct, Hot and Delicious! The boys taking our orders are always so patient. Very hard working and helpful. The owner never stops frying it up! He does an amazing job! Thank you for your service! read more

Not because of the food but because of the service. The forgot to include the clams and fries and extra order of vinegar. Won't go back. Too far away. read more

The food tasted like the oil was changed the last time this place was updated. The fries could have been fried cardboard and tasted around the same. The fish had the problem of tasting like that amazing oil I mentioned before (prob the reason they wanted me to take sauce so badly) read more

Always delicious n fresh just the way I love it here and I'll be going again next week

Love this place, been coming here for years, now I bring the grandkids, they love it too. We always order the fish and the large shrimp bomb that's all I can say. read more

It's a shame I've never tried this place even though it's been there for as long as I can remember. I love fish and chips so I got exactly that. The fries, on a scale of 1 being completely soggy and 10 being completely crunchy/crispy, were a 3. So they were on the soggy side. A good French fry stands up on its own when you hold it up but these French fries were sad and limp. The "chips" portion of their fish and chips need help. Otherwise I can't complain about their fish. It was cooked perfectly, not too underdone or too overdone. The breading was crisp and didn't fall off after the first bite. Seasoning wasn't too salty or too bland. If I'm craving fish and chips I'd get their fish and chips without the chips (see paragraph 2). So they might as well be called H Salt Fish. read more

You can smell the fish when you open the door not too many places can say that Decor: very basic picnic table and benches, a Multi-Arcade for 50¢ (not bad), no TV, great radio station,nothing too fancy which is fine with me. Food: It's almost a traditional Fish & Chips spot. The fish is flaky, the fries are definitely more American style. There's no salt added to your food so you're going to have to add it which is great for those who are watching their salt intake. When I ordered I asked for the four piece of fish & chips and the second order was for the shrimp & chips the cashier asked me if I wanted to split the order and I said yes. Which is great because that way I got to try the fish, shrimp and fries. Next time though I also plan to order a different side instead of chips & chips. I was offered condiments of tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, ketchup and Tabasco. They have PepsiCo family of beverages. The only thing that this place is missing is just a slice of bread with butter just to round out the meal but I'm happy with what I got and will probably continue to visit. They also offer Calamari & chips, a Clam basket and some other offerings. Look forward to the next visit. Service: very happy with the cleanliness and level of service. The cashier makes great suggestions, very courteous. This is what will keep me coming back! read more

I grew up eating H. Salt and it still is one of my comfort foods whenever I'm home. I am a huge fan of the fish & chips. The batter is so light and the fish is fried perfectly. The fried zucchini is awesome and they have plenty of other options if you don't like fish. The owner is a REALLY nice guy and the pinball machine is always fun to play while waiting for your order! Service is fairly quick, but if you're rushing just phone in your order. FYI, this place gets packed during the Lenten season! read more

Its not the biggest place but the fish in chips are consistently good. Dan the owner, fries up awesome grub nearly every day of the week from 11a-5p. After that the evening crew keeps it going until about 8p. We shared the four piece Fish in Chips. The light tempura batter crunchy goodness with the moist steamy flaky Alaskan Pollock is so good. Real malt vinegar, tartar sauce, ketchup, Tapatio, lemons are all available to garnish with. Dan makes great food and is always polite the customers. I'd take away a half a star for no restrooms but the place is tiny but the fish and chips are really good! You have to try this place. Eat in, hot and crunchy! read more

I've lived in Downey for 15 years, but I've never thought to try this place! There was a coupon in the paper, so I thought I'd check it out. It's easy to miss H Salt, as it's in an unassuming location in a unfrequented strip mall. The storefront is kind of cute and old-fashioned, and I was a little disappointed by the no nonsense interior. The owner hung up a few maps from European countries on the walls, but overall it's very bare. There is a pinball machine in the corner, if you need some entertainment while you wait. The owner was very nice, and started on my order (basic 2 pc fish and chips, with coleslaw) right away. When I first yelped this place, it was three dollar signs. Seriously, it is not expensive at all. My food cost $5.22, so I'm happy. My order came out quickly (~5 min), and I was given tartar sauce, vinegar, and ketchup. Fish: Delicious, crispy batter that does not overwhelm the fish. The fish was flaky and juicy! Chips: Just average fries, nothing special. Cole Slaw: Refreshing way to end a meal consisting of entirely fried things, but also average. A decent meal if you're craving, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here. Good thing it's close! Food: 3.5, Service: 4, Ambiance: 2, Price: 4 read more

Came here with my brother today, and got the 2 piece fish and chips, and it was delicious. It filled me up, without feeling too bloated, and it was inexpensive Got the combo for $5.43. Which isn't bad at all! We got to go, because we prefer eating in the comfort of our own home By the way, there are a lot of options here for you to choose from! When i walked in, I was like seriously? Wow By the way this place looks authentic British. There were posters on the wall of the UK, if only the people there spoke British, then this place would have been like walking into a pub in London read more

Very good place very legitimate fish and chips everything is fresh all the food taste really good it doesn't taste like old grease we enjoyed it you come over here bring your family and your mama bring your cousin read more

This has been the WORSE fish & chips we've had. I think husband and I tend to be fair when it comes to reviewing restaurants but we had instant stomach problems. Couldn't really expect anything better coming from food that was frozen the minute we walked in. We both ordered the same thing, overly greased non seasoned fish & chips. The fries were crispy, and so was the fish but what good was it if it didn't taste like anything. No seasoning on the fries... not even simple table salt. Fish was bland and so was the batter. Yes the fish did have that nice crunch but lacked everything else possible. The tartar sauce was as bland as everything else. Will definitely not come here again. read more

Very delicious! I usually go to the one in Hollywood near Vermont but this one is better. The menu has more items and I wanted to try all of them! Lol The seafood combo is delicious! I recommend you try it. The sauces are self serve on your plate and there's no extra charge for more. I will be back to try the rest of the menu!! read more

Fish & Chips - Seafood Combo $12.50 - Fish & Chips Near Me - Downey, California

After last Fridays experience , We will Never Ever spend not 1 more penny here. The owner, fish fryer was rude yelling and embarrassing me in front of other customers as he was having a meltdown. If a business claims to be open till 7pm everyday, then they need to be professional to do just that. This was the 2nd time on 2 differentoccasions, I called to make sure they were open, only to be told 45 mins one time and 1 hour last Friday they were closed ahead of time. We drove from Anaheim last Friday after calling only to be told when we got there they were closed. There were 4 people in line and the last in line said they cut the line. Went to ask the owner if I could speak with him for a second. He turned red in the face n frowned as he yelled NO NO NO what do you want? That they werent taking anymore orders. My first review I left online was 5 star, our family has been going here for over 20 yrs. But after the last 2 visits of being treated so badly, If I could rate them a 0 minus star I would. To Hell with this man n his bad attitude n loud mouth. NEVER EVER AGAIN. I HOPE THE OTHERS TREATED LIKE THIS CAUSE HIS BUSINESS TO CLOSE BY NOT GIVING THEIR MONEY TO HIM. HE NEEDS ANGER MANAGEMENT AND LESSONS ON HOW TO APPRECIATE LOYAL CUSTOMERS. read more

FINNALLLLYYY!!!!! I have finally found the best fish and chips I've ever had. I've been searching everywhere for really good and authentic fish and chips. These beauties were fried perfectly and the fish fillets were incredibly moist and fresh. The batter was light but had a nice crunch to it. Their homemade tartar sauce was just tasty and didn't taste like it was from a bottle. I tip my hat to you guys. Definitely now a fan of H. Salt fish and chips! read more

Bruh. I wish i had time to take pictures. They gave me fried cold fish. It was hella wet and greasy af LOL. The paper bag was so soaked, it ripped a hole. They probably shouldve cooked it longer. The fish was really thick, something im not used to. the fries are super trash. They taste like cheap walmart fries baked in the oven, starchy af too. They didnt have onion rings but i couldve subbed for zucchini if i wanted for the shrimp fish onion ring fries combo. The fish was breaking apart all over the place. The shrimp was tasty though! Its like the flat crispy shrimp they have at red lobster. Bruh. Im shocked, disappointed, all at the same time. My first time there. The customer service was decent though which is rare unless u talking money. I didnt complain or anything, i dont have time for that, i just dont come back. I dont fight, debate, go back and forth, argue with people. Right now, im just trying to help people from being let down or at least be mentally prepared or whatever. Maybe i just caught them at a bad time. If you go, dont go sunday around 6pm like me lol. Wasted $11 bucks. I had ordered the 2 fish 4 shrimp fries combo and ordered an extra 1 pc fish smh for my first time. Cash only! In complex next to crimson coward and post office. read more
