    Solid fish and chips especially with the tartar sauce, it tasted even better right by the water. We love their biscoff milkshake (I'd come back just for milkshake tbh) but it was sold out at the time so we settled for the chocolate milkshake. They are always busy when we visit so we do have to wait quite a bit but I'd says it's worth.

    Maybe we caught them on an off day? We have so enjoyed Gordon Ramsay fish & chips previously but this day they were meh. Staff was extremely friendly, although it took over 10 minutes for us to get our order (2 fish & chip baskets with truffle fries) and the store was not busy. When we got our food neither the fish or the fries had any crispiness to them. I can't say soggy necessarily, but almost as if the oil wasn't hot enough. We ate the fish and the fish tasted decent, but we left our fries. Definitely a disappointment overall.

    Damnit Gordon! That should not have been that good. We went with the fish and shrimp combo and everything was really fresh and tasty. The sauces paired perfectly with it too. Now the real star of the show was the Biscoff shake. Hands down the best shake I've ever had. Just take my word for it and try it if you ever get the chance.

    This has been on my go-to list for a very long time. I finally made it this past weekend on a lovely 60 degree day in Washington DC. The location on the Wharf has always made it difficult due to parking. The nearby Wharf garages start at $11 per hour. You really can't spend a couple of hours there without the exorbitant parking fees. But if you do come down to the DC Wharf, do try the Fish & Chips. I do not normally get fish & chips on any menu because of the grease but I had to try Gordon Ramsay's. I was not disappointed. I got the Gordon Combo which had one piece of fish, one piece of chicken, and three shrimp. The fish and shrimp were delicious. The chicken was juicy. The fries were crisp. Everything was well done. I thought coming after the lunch hour close to 2PM, it would not be that busy. Not so. It took almost 30 minutes to stand in line to place my order on two self-order kiosks (one human person was also taking orders if you technology adverse) and then move to the pick up section to wait for your number to be called. The place was definitely busy and full of tourists. Once I got my order, I headed outside to enjoy my meal. There are plenty of benches if a table is not available. I highly recommend eating outside on a nice day. So much people watching and fresh air next to the water.

    We decided to give this place a try after hearing good things about it. We were here on a Saturday around 4 p.m., and the place wasn't busy. All ordering is done on touch screens, which can sometimes be frustrating. You almost need a PhD in computer science to operate the ordering system. When an employee saw us and another customer puzzling over the screens, she came out and assisted us all. We told her it was our first time here and thanked her for her help. We both ordered the fish and chips. Cod is the fish they use, and it worked very well. We also ordered regular "chips" (just salted). They offer up items like "dirty chips" that cost extra. The order also comes with a choice of two sauces. We both chose dijon mayonnaise and cocktail sauce. To drink, we each had a bottle of water. The employee handed us our water right after we paid for the food. Our receipt had an order number, so we waited for our number to be called, which didn't take long. As for the food, we both liked the fish. The coating was crunchy, and the cod was flaky and moist. This dinner box also comes with a lemon wedge to squeeze over the fish (which we both did). The "chips" arrived piping hot, which we appreciated. As for the dipping sauces: to me, the dijon mayonnaise was very mildly flavored with the dijon. My husband said he barely tasted it. (He likes fries with mayonnaise anyway. ) The cocktail sauce had a bit of kick. I rarely use cocktail sauce, but my husband, who uses it more than I do, said he thought it could have been better: it arrived as a partially solid ketchup-like mass in the cup. Perhaps, they could have added some other ingredients. I wasn't impressed by the tables and chairs. The tables were spacious, but the chairs were too low. As a short person, I found myself sitting too low to the ground, like a kid at the adults' table. (The place has two unisex bathrooms. One of them needs to have its commode seat replaced) Otherwise, we liked the food and thought the portion size was just right -- neither too much nor too little. We would consider going there again. Bring your gold card.

    I will admit, I came here about 30 minutes before closing, but I do not think is an excuse for the overpriced food with Gordan Ramseys stamp on it. For a restaurant with his name with a classic dish from his home country, I had high expectations. As much as I like how the batter was light and crispy, it was way too salty for me. The sauce selection was interesting and yummy, such as the curry sauce (I've never seen or tried that with fish and chips). The fried fish had some empty spaces inside (less meat) and the batter was so salty, the sauces couldn't save it. Maybe it was because I went right before closing, but I was very disappointed. The inside was modern, and British decorated with colors, but that was really it.

    Quick take: craving fish and chips We ordered a combo and shared between two people.The combo had fish, shrimp. and French fries. I liked the outdoor seating ver much. The tartar sauce is very good. Next time I want to try the cocktail sauce as well.

    Size of the fish
    Anthony V.

    If this is Gordon Ramsay's version of fish and chips he sold out. Food was pretty mid. Fish was more like the size of freeze fish sticks. Very neutral flavors on the fish and fries. Flavor comes from their vast sauce selection. I don't even believe they had plain malt vinegar. Fries and fish were kind of soggy (took 15mins to get the food so I feel like it was fresh too) and the portions for $22 was embarrassing. I feel embarrassed spending that much for something that is considered fast food. Long John's silvers give you twice the amount of more authentic fish for less lol. I was pretty disappointed but was not horrible if you want to say you tried Gordon's food. Very mid experience for way too much $

    I must have caught them on a bad day. I've been wanting to try this place since they opened. I came on a Thursday night before meeting friends in the area. The place was clean, and ordering at the kiosks is fairly simple. I tried the Gordon's combo, which consisted of 1 piece of fish, 1 chicken, 3 shrimp and fries. My order took less than 5 minutes to get, and unfortunately I was a little disappointed. For $20+, you get more fries than anything. The chicken had no flavor and was smaller than the size of my palm. The fish was also tiny compared to other pics and reviews I saw, and the breading was sliding off first bite. The shrimp were perfect in size and taste. I should've taken a picture of the cocktail sauce. Im assuming it was previously frozen because the texture was way more of a paste than a dip. I'm a huuuge fan of fish and chips, and this one just wasn't worth the money. If I ever came back, I'd probably stick to the shrimp. Never again on the chicken though. For less than $20, i wish there was a Long John Silvers in the area.

    Fish Combo Dirty Chips #3
    Matthew U.

    I'm a big Ramsay fan and have had his version of fish and chips at other restaurants, so I figured I would give this a go at this location. The Wharf has so many options for a meal if you are willing to sit down and have an experience. However, I wanted to be able to go in, place an order, and eat at my leisure in my solitude. This place afforded me that and I was never happier. Being one of four locations in the States I walked in and right up to the ordering kiosk. I wanted to go old school here, so I bypassed the combo dishes that included chicken and/or shrimp. I wanted just the Fish Combo which comes with three pieces of cod and chips. Two dipping sauces of my choice as well. For me it was Gordon's Tartar and the Dijon Mayonnaise. I also upgraded my chips to Dirty Chips #3 (bacon cheddar, green onions, sour cream). Added a drink, paid, given my receipt by the machine. Before I could go back and find a seat a staff member was already there to provide me with my drink. I went with sweet tea and after I was handed it I was told there were free refills. I like this space. It's big and feels intimate, but at the same time you can find a spot where you are by yourself. I did just that. I went towards the back, past the restrooms, and found myself a nice two top with a nice view of the street. Allowing me to people watch and take in the scenery. Before long my number was called and I went to fetch my food. The portion size, a bit small to me. Definitely not what I paid at other establishments that serve Gordon's recipe for this very dish. But the taste was out of this world. The cod was a bit bigger than a traditional fish stick size. Perfectly battered, giving you that crunch you would expect to hear. The chips, I should have gotten them plain with just sea salt. The toppings were nearly lacking and didn't do the chips justice. I wanted more of the toppings, especially since I was up charged for them. Totally missed the mark for me Overall, great experience, but when I do return, I will definitely give other things a try this go around.

    Had this in Vegas and loved it and same for here. Super quick service and food was prepared perfectly! Cant wait to go back. Need to try a biscoff milkshake next time. Indoor and outdoor seating. Clean and well maintained.

    I was excited to try this spot on the wharf. It seemed more popular than Hell's Kitchen itself. We tried the fish basket, it hard 3 fried shrimps and 2 fried cods. It seemed like a small portion for $20. There was a lot of fries, or chips as they call it. The fries had a lot of potato but not very seasoned. The ambience was like a fast food restaurant, not very classy. But it was nice to see the Gordon Ramsey logo everywhere with the British flag.

    Mehhh, the food was kinda bland, the breading soggy and falling off. I ordered this to go so maybe that's why. Next time I'll order it in and hopefully yhsylll boost the experience. 5/10

    Ask the Community - Gordon Ramsay Fish & Chips

    Does this restaurant accept reservations for seating?

    I don't think it so. It's more of a fast food place. You can order to go or dine inside or outside on the patio.

    Hi is the fish beer battered?

    Hi Mariam, Our batter does not contain beer or alcohol. Due to the way our food is prepared, it is not possible to guarantee the absence of allergens in our products.

    Are the fish and chips dairy-free? Which menu items contain dairy? Thanks

    Yes they're dairy free. I've asked the employees several times during my multiple trips to the restaurant.

    Are the fish and chips safe for a peanut and tree nut allergy?

    Hi Lorraine, while the Fish and Chips do not contain peanuts or tree nuts, due to the way our food is prepared, it is not possible to guarantee the absence of allergens in our products.

    Where is the closest garage to park at? UPDATE: we parked at Wharf Parking Garage 1 - 7th Street Circle Entrance (address: 700 Water St SW, WDC 20024) which was less than a block from the restaurant (rates: 30 mins $5, up to 1 hr $10, 1 - 2 hrs $20)

    Garage 2 is directly behind Gordon Ramsay Fish and chips. It's expensive, so if you're only going to pick up food, you're probably better off with street parking if you can find it.

    Are the fish and shrimp fried separately?

    Yes, I believe they are! They actually have a counter above the kitchen where you can see the number of fish, shrimp, and chicken the staff is frying. I'd say that's a pretty good indicator that they fry them separately.

    What kind of oil do you use to fry your fish and shrimp?

    Hi Wendy, we are using Canola oil.

The restaurant was extremely busy, with the line out the door, so I understand it was a hectic day. However, the service was exceptionally slow. It took over 30 minutes for our order to even be entered into the system, and we waited about an hour for our food, including the appetizers. Our server, Brandon, started off okay after we were seated, but as the evening went on, he seemed distracted and less attentive to our table. With a large group that included children and a baby, we definitely needed more communication and support. The standout of the evening was the management team, especially Brandy. She was truly all hands on deck and went above and beyond to assist us. She was kind, customer-focused, and worked hard to address concerns and make sure guests felt taken care of. She honestly provided the best service we received during our visit. The food had several highlights. The char-grilled octopus was delicious and my first time trying it. The salad was top tier, and the shrimp fettuccine was probably one of the best dishes on the menu. The deviled eggs were good but could use a little more seasoning. The fish sandwich needed more sauce, and the fries and shrimp po' boy were both enjoyable, especially with extra sauce. One thing I didn't appreciate was the layout and accessibility of the restaurant. The space felt overcrowded, and the tables were packed very tightly together. As we were leaving, I had my son in his stroller and there wasn't enough room to comfortably get through. I was disappointed that our server didn't offer to help adjust the table or create a path for us to exit. I also noticed there weren't ramps that would make it easier for strollers or guests with mobility challenges to navigate the space. Improving accessibility and spacing would make a huge difference in the overall experience. Overall, the food and Brandy's exceptional customer service were the highlights of the visit. However, the long wait times, overcrowded seating, and accessibility concerns kept this from being a higher-rated experience.
