Just gonna be honest....only wound up here because we were DYING for some fish and all of the other places were closed, so we wound up here. Im from Oakland but live in Vallejo, and quite honestly, the place that frys our fish is a fresh fish market with the option to fry there or take home. This is our second visit, and we kinda gotvtoo much, but damn read more

I hate that I moved from the Bay, so I'm not able to eat here as often as I used to. Quality has always been amazing & everything is so fresh! I drive from the Central Valley now to enjoy their food. Lifetime customer. read more

Fish King - Jumbo prawns, catfish, dirty rice & fries! - Fish & Chips Near Me - Oakland, California

The best cornmeal fried fish ever. Its fresh - not in old grease and the customer service is stellar. I knew it was good the moment I saw multiple over 50yr old black men coming out. That let me know it was good...because black men love a GOOD FSIH FRY! read more

The catfish hoagie is all that I get there I've been on a little diet trying to be as pescatarian as possible so I come here when I'm hungry and I want something close to a burger read more

Fish King - This is not CATFISH IT SWAI SWAI AND THESE BEANS ARE BOILED KIDNEY BEANS. - Fish & Chips Near Me - Oakland, California

The food at the Fish King is always Smackin!! They prepare hot fresh fish, and the sides are generous too!

The staff is always friendly. They are quick, efficient, and kind. My favorite foods there are the oysters party wings combo. Their party wings are straight fire . I love their cheese sauce and the steak fries are pretty tasty read more

This is the best fried fish/chicken/hoagie place in Oakland. Not only that, they provide the best customer service, despite being in the hood. Everything is seasoned just right, not too salty. I normally get the combo plate with snapper, prawns, and dirty rice, and sometimes with an extra piece of chicken - it's the best! read more

Fish King - combo with snapper, prawns, dirty rice. ordered an extra chicken breast also! - Fish & Chips Near Me - Oakland, California

The jumbo prawns were excellent! I would have like a little more seasoning on my fish but it too was fried nice and not greasy.

This a a real dive located in the hood on Hood Row. My kind of food establishment! I always say that if you want real food, you can typically locate it in the Concrete Jungle. My kid turned me on to this joint over 2 years ago. I keep coming back cuz the snapper, cat & prawnns call my sweet name. I hate the potato salad. It is runny, no egg, no nothing but yuck. The service is on point - I LOVE THIS JOINT!!! read more

Great food and very friendly staff. Parking can be kinda shady but that's an issue for the owners of the plaza.

My fish was mainly skin. It hardly had any meat... so disappointed. And with all of the fish that came in the meal, they only gave me 2 packets of tartar sauce... really. I had at least 6 pieces of fish. read more

This is the best place for fried chicken, fish, and my most favorite steak hoagie. If I could come here every single day I would. I have been coming here for about 12 years and have had food catered for many parties; it has been consistently great each time. The owner is also one of the kindest people I have ever met. The best part is that the food is halal according to the owner. read more

I always get a fish plate or fish and chicken combo plate which are full of flavor not hella greasy made to order and don't take hella long. (I usually call & pick up) this time I decided to try a hoagie instead of a combo plate.. it was koo (i added bbq sauce) but i love the chicken wings/fish (sol / catfish).. homie at the register is a cutie too, he has good customer which is appreciated read more

Fish King - Chicken hoagie with fries & a soda - Fish & Chips Near Me - Oakland, California

BOMB! Chicken and fish are seasoned well and large portions for a fair price. I wanted to go back the next day too read more

This place can get pretty busy but never disappoints, I usually come here for the chicken tender combo and have been meaning to try something else, everything just smells and looks soo delicious. I love coming here because the chicken isn't overly fatty/greasy and it's super juicy. I brought a coworker with me and he tried the catfish nuggets, if I remember correctly, and really loved them. If you haven't I recommend you give this place a try you won't be disappointed read more

I enjoyed my visit here. We ordered a regular shrimp platter with fries and a fish, shrimp combo with fries!! Our food was hot!!! FRESH!!! And delicious!!! We also got some of their special sauce?! I think it was homemade honey mustard of some sort, but it was super tasty and really good with the fresh fries!!!!!! The only reason I'm not giving this place 5 stars is because 1... I really wanted to try the peach cobbler but did not this time. 2... the inside of the place could be a lot more organized and welcoming. 3.. there's no bathroom. Right now it's set up super weird. It's not inviting at all. However don't be discouraged, the food was bomb! Also sits in the middle of an "urban" neighborhood which means predominately black neighborhood which actually made me feel super good. If you ever want to know if a restaurant is good; put it in the hood. read more

Great customer service , good prices , good flavorful food. I often go for those reasons However it has come to a end . It was still a Lil hot so I was picking the skin off the chicken eating it , as I did booom a bug I drove back to the location showed them the cooked offered to make me more food & told me " it happens sometimes " . At that point I definitely did not want anything else out of their kitchen . I was giving a refund . read more

My sister wanted to try this place today and I choose the steak hoagie with everything. It was very delicious and the fries were seasoned to perfection! I will definitely try this place again!! read more

The people are Friendly, also pretty fast service and I haven't had any complaints about the food.....

I don't know if this is as good as it gets, but to me it's dang tootin' good stuff, mang! Me Betty turned me on via a hot-tip from a fam that showed up in a patient room with the works, so we made a run one weekend and powered down a chicken and fish order with extra sides, everything was delicious and plentiful with enough leftovers for a tasty latter meal. Eating this stuff hours, or even days, as it turns out, holds-up very well. I went a second time and got me more chicken, and then tried the Hoagie, which met expectations (though I may skip the tomato, and a little less mayo for me next time, please)! Both times I was there, the dudes working there were very accommodating, friendly, and seem to like servin' it up to folk. The prices and portions are pretty good to great, and though the dining area seems, um,shall I say, un-fit, it's easy to overlook because everything else is just a feel-good experience overall. read more

Fish king is the spot always fresh products awesome tasting food great customer service. Reasonable prices Thanks Fish King

Great steak hoagies, this is one of my favorite places been coming here for years. Always good and I love the staff, they're cool peoples

I was returning from Oakland Airport and had a sudden specific craving for Fish N Chips. Yelp users recommended this hole-in-the wall place, next to a laundromat/washateria, located in a neighborhood that you might not visit at night. But their fish was freshly prepared (10 minutes) and delicious. I had a generous portion filet of sole, with what they call "dirty rice". I would certainly go back if I get that craving again. read more

Good food, great price, service is efficient - it's the perfect grab and go fish & chips. Small menu (all fried stuff - catfish, chicken wings, fried oysters etc.) and it's not in the best neighborhood, but it is a neighborhood joint in East Oakland. Not worth driving out of my way to go there, but if I happen to be around that part of town, I'd definitely try them again. read more

Fish King food is very good, however the delivery service they used Postmates suck. I place my order at 5pm and did not get my food until 9pm read more

Fish King - I got the 4 Way Combo with catfish, jumbo shrimp and chicken wings - Fish & Chips Near Me - Oakland, California

Has been one of our family's favorite for many years. Great service, selection, and most importantly food. Always fresh with new special items on menu. read more

I felt like some Southern Style Catfish so I rolled to Fish King . Fish King is located in East Oakland in a New Strip Mall with a Little Cesar's, Laundry Mat and a Beauty Supply Mart. The neighborhood is pretty Sketchy . I rolled into Fish King and noticed the Bullet proof glass counter and the small dining room with 2 tables and a granite counter where you can eat your meal. I ordered the Catfish Prawn Combo it comes with French Fries , 4 pieces of Catfish and about 10 Prawns. The Catfish was Off The Hook it was battered in a light Cornmeal Batter and the Prawns were very Delicious. The Fries were Crinkle Cut Box Fries . They do a great job with the Fish and Prawns . Its also an interesting place to people watch . While I was waiting 2 nice looking women came in an placed an order and went into graphic descriptions of their Club exploits and after club encounters this was very AMUSING!!!. Like I said its a very Sketchy neighborhood for your own safety don't go there after Dark . If you do be very aware of your surroundings. read more

I am not expecting most if not ALL of you to venture this deep into East Oakland (da hood, holla!), but I tell ya, what they do here, they do it right! This is a southern style fry house. Mainly take out (I dare you to eat in lol), behind the bullet proof glass order counter, these guys know how to fry. The chicken (I've only had the wings) are lightly breaded in seasoned flour and fried perfectly. Not super crunchy but definite texture. The whole wings are the larger variety so be prepared to go into carnivore mode. Hot sauce requisite in my book. Their fried fish options are crazy generous, from oysters to prawns to catfish to snapper. The fish has this cornmeal crust that is so masterfully constructed that I don't think I've had one this good, even in upscale sit-down joints. It is crazy crunchy without it being brittle to point of crumbling under pressure. So every bite of tender fish has a contrasting bite of crust. And the oil they use is quite clean which is to be commended for a hole-in-the-wall joint like this. The snapper was just okay to me. Did not have that sweet sensation from super fresh fish, but was definitely not bad by any means. The catfish on the other hand was super tasty. Beautiful thick white meat paired super nice with their cornmeal breading. They even offered catfish in both fillet and steak form, now that's serious catfish eating biznass. The fries even though crinkle cut (my least favorite style) was actually not bad. Did not taste artificial and once again was fried crisp in clean oil. Just wished I was able to douse it with vinegar n salt, not sure if it was available. The Dirty Rice was true with chunks of ground gizzard/liver meat through out. But it had this fake butter taste along with the converted rice so made it kinda fake to me. Just ok and edible but not good enough to repeat. This is one of my new hit ups if I need to bring something to an A's tailgate. People always love it and let's face it, fried food when done right is always a hit. I just call in my order ahead of time and pick it up quick. Even I (a vet and no stranger to sketchy hoods) am a little hesitant at extending my time in this corner of town and that's sayin' something. But I'll be back, fasho! read more

You want deals this is your spot Best catfish I've had in a while, and everyone after me ordered the snapper. Must be bomb. People are regulars which says a whole lot. Cornmeal breeding. Fried not too hard. Three me tons of hot sauce and tartar. Chicken was bomb and two people are good for only $14. Oh yes I'll take that bread slice. read more
