    Got the Combo 1 (1 Fish, 1 Jumbo Shrimp, Fries). Pretty good fish. It was a light/medium batter, moist and flaky. I was fortunate to have a small conversation with the owner. I complemented her on how the food was perfectly fried since all of the items were crispy and not greasy at all. You can definitely sense that the owner is a genuine and sincere person, who cares about the quality of the food and also keeping great customer satisfaction. There are four tables inside for dining. Service was very friendly. Definitely no issues with parking.

    + good size fish! And really tasty + good price for what you get + onion rings and fried mushrooms are good! + great service and friendly staff + parking is super easy since its in a big shopping center lot - fries are MEH - it can take a long time to get your food, but that just shows its popularity, highly recommend calling in your order so you don't have to wait long

    Price is good but food is bland. Service was fast and friendly. Little hole in the wall type. Older place but fits the cheap price.

    Menu (Part 1)

    Kitty's Fish & Chips (Covina) offers freshly cooked food, extremely affordable prices, and generous portions. I ordered the Lent Special (aka: 2 Fish, 5 Large Shrimp, & Fries) for only $11.99! The portion size is humongous! And its food contains fresh, clean ingredients cooked with expert care. (Important Note: Bring Cash. A service charge of $1.00 will be applied to all credit card purchases.) I arrived on a weekday (around 12:20PM). Kitty's Fish & Chips (Covina) is busy with longtime, cheerful patrons. Staff happily bantered with customers while being professional and efficient. Three customers had ordered ahead of me. My food was ready in 13 minutes. (Note: If in a rush, order via phone. Staff is very accommodating. Staff even asks for your preferred pick-up time, so it's ready fresh for your arrival.) As mentioned, I ordered the Lent Special (2 Fish, 5 Large Shrimp, & Fries) for $11.99. I left full and happy! The fish is breaded lightly; it has a fresh crunch. It's freshly cooked so don't burn yourself. The fish is fresh, thick, and piping hot. The large shrimp has a thin crust similar to Japanese tempura. It's a welcomed crunch. These big shrimps are absolutely delicious when dunked in their cocktail sauce. Perhaps the weakest food option are the fries. The fries are thick and fluffy, but these fries are not crisp. Most tasted very soft. (Important Tip: When you receive the food, eat it quick. If left aside for too long, the breading quickly becomes soggy. This is a meal that's best enjoyed fresh.) Kitty's Fish & Chips (Covina) has a charming, ship decor. The location is very clean and well-maintained. In addition, its soft rock, pop music is catchy. The location is well-ventilated, but cold. However, the location is very small. There's four tiny tables inside. There's no available restroom. And it's somewhat strange how there's a Christmas tree inside despite it being April. (Quick Tip: There's an additional charge for extra Tartar Sauce, Cocktail Sauce, and Condiments. Also, there's no free drink refills.) Overall, Kitty's Fish & Chips (Covina) is a local hidden gem. The prices are phenomenal. The food is bountiful and freshly cooked. And it's a beloved small local business that deserves a tremendous amount of recognition. High-Quality Food with Extremely Affordable Prices. I happily recommend! 5/5

    Awesome size fish next time making room for Zuccini and mushrooms and onion rings yummmy

    I used to eat here along time ago when it was H salt was very good then and still good now quality and service is out of this world the best place to still find great fish and prices affordable for family don't miss out stop buying mc Donald's filet o fish it shrank ....

    The Lent Special

    Kitty's Fish & Chips is a staple when it's Lent season. If you want fried seafood at an affordable price, this is the spot. We ordered the "Lent Combo" which is a mix of fried fish, shrimp and a side of fries. Overall, everything is cooked well. Crisp fish and shrimp that are still tender and not overcooked. The fries are whatever. Overall, I think these items could have used more salt as it was a bit lacking in seasoning. This place can get quite busy on a Friday (during lunch). So call ahead if you're in a rush!

    Incredible experience. I am beyond impressed with this place. First off, this hidden gem has the best vibes I've seen from a restaurant in years; it's so cute in here! There's ships and lighthouses and cute little string lights too! The service was very good as well. This place is family owned by some of the kindest people ever. And the food... I can honestly say this is the best fish and chips I have ever had. No seriously. If you're reading this you NEED to go try it. Everything from the shape of the fish, to the perfect batter to fish ratio, to the perfectly seasoned tartar sauce, to the delicious fries, and finally the cherry on top: the vinegar! Oh and even the Pepsi was dressed to impress over here; check out the cup design! Super retro I love it. The pricing couldn't be more reasonable and fair too. I paid just about $13 for everything. 15/10 experience I am so happy I tried this place out. This place is a hidden gem and I cannot wait to come back and try more menu items!

    Food is well prepared. The fish is flaky as I like it, but it doesn't taste like cod or fishy. The fish are all the same size, like they are manufactured. Both shrimps and fish are in a crispy batter. For the price, you're getting your money's worth. The lady is very nice and pleasant at order/pickup counter. The place is a hole in wall type with limited sitting, about 4 tables. Place is air fan cooled.

    Yes they have 3 small tables

    Is it still the case that they don't take credit cards, or was that only three years ago?

    Cash only

    If I bring my credit card to purchase a meal, will I be able to pay with it or do I need to have cash?

However, our waiter immediately discouraged me from ordering the Tacos Gobernadorbecaise they don't sell alacart, which was disappointing. The taquitos plate was heavily smothered with no beanswith no flaver, which overpowered the different protein flavors and made the dish taste somewhat bland. A side of guacamole or crema would have helped balance the flavors and improve the overall presentation. My daughter ordered the enchilada plate, and to our surprise, it didn't come with beans and rice. This was the first time we've ever been served enchiladas without those traditional sides. The price difference to add them was less than $1, so it was difficult to understand why they weren't included. Oh, and one of the TVs showing the soccer game was about 15 minutes behind the others. LOL. Window blinds were off balance and paper material making the place feel cheap. It's a shame because the issues I mentioned seem relatively easy to fix. Addressing them would go a long way toward improving the overall dining experience. I do admit that the other dishes we tried had very good flavor and I may come and try again in a few months... Ambiance needs improvement, it feels like a cenaduria.. eat and leave. But then again I was there at 11am
