This place is certainly a staple in oakland. They've been consistent with their food for as long as I've been going and there service is friendly. There aren't many places you can get catfish and man is it worth it!! Not only the catfish but the snapper and prawns are amazing as well. Love the portions. I think you get your moneys worth of seafood. Potato salad is my go to as the side option. fries are great too! Love the tartar and hot sauce they use! read more

Overcooked fish, expensive, and long wait. Spotted this place while nearby and decided to try it. I was very disappointed. The fish n chips were BAD. The fish was rubbery and thin.. The fries were okay and extra sauce was an extra cost. Not coming back. read more

Total rip off they super skimped out on the catfish nuggets, I paid $18 for fish batter. It's friggin catfish not like it's a super pricey fish especially nugget form. Never coming back here no wonder it wasn't busy. read more

Louisiana Fish & Chips was lousy, their cat fish isn't cooked right, their prawns are not fresh, neither is their fish. There fries are salty and not tasty at all. I'm so sorry that we stopped by there . There was not one customer in there the entire time we were there. I do not recommend this establishment read more

The other day my job had me in downtown Oakland, and I decided to try the fried catfish at this small restaurant. I ordered the Catfish Combo w/ a salad instead of fries. Also, an order of onion rings. The person who took my order was nice and polite. I finally get my food after a short wait. Okay, the fried catfish was good. It was fresh, moist and the meat was flaky. However, the tartar sauce wasn't tartar sauce. It was some sort of salad dressing, maybe ranch dressing? I paid for extra tartar sauce, and both containers were some sort of salad dressing. Now, the onion rings. I like my onion rings battered and deep fried. These rings were limp, soggy, and breaded. They appeared either baked or microwaved. Not crispy at all. This place would of received 4-stars if I didn't order the onion rings. Would I return? No thanks read more

The service was great and the food was delicious. It needs more lemon pepper and salt. My first time here and I will be back. The place is small with only three tables and most people were getting their food to go. I started and I was not disappointed read more

Food is still the same for 8-10 years.. never have a problem ... nice service & fast they cooked the food... piping hot read more

Consistent service, taste and delivery. Their seafood is fresh and fried well. Complementing sides don't disappoint

Fish was cut really thin and fried soft. Fries were okay. Wasn't happy with the menu prices, but i guess. A 32 oz bowl/ cup of gumbo is $25.00 A 2-way combo of fish & shrimp almost $32.00 for 13 pieces. Not sure how that would be broken up among the two choices. I probably won't be back. read more

This is the worse Fried Fish I ever had. I believed they use the same grease with fish & chicken. This is why the fish taste old. The fish was very thin slices and called it fish. The fish was worse the next day. Service: They gave me 1 sauce and charged me for another!! read more

My son, LaTreyl, introduced me to Louisiana Fish & Chips. This is our second time here I had to wait for the traffic to go back home Lodi so this was a great find! The Red Snapper was cooked just like you would get down South. The service was great! And they have collard greens and hush puppies AND GUMBO NOW you know read more

FISH N CHIPS - we discovered that this is better than our other spot . They have some really fresh snapper and prawns in a very tasty batter and it just as close to our home. This was our third time coming here in past three weeks and they are kinda pricey compared to Off the Hook but the quality is way better. We got the 3 way combo double snapper and prawns with fries. This time it was a little bit drier but was still worth it ! Fries are not the best but still okay! Small location with off street parking . They have good customer service and always quick when you order by phone ! I recommend them for your fried snapper fix! read more

Catfish, oysters, German chocolate, coleslaw were the best!! Service was quick and she had good recommendations for first timer like me. I like the way they designed the place- it has Bay Area feel to it. lol read more

I always order the exact same thing - catfish and fries. Last night was no different after passing up those long lines in front of the food trucks on Telegraph during First Friday. Fish - plenty of flavor and I don't even need hot sauce. I always ask for extra tartar sauce. The fish is good without it, but the tartar sauce is so damn good. Fries - well, fries are fries. They're amazing, but they can get soggy real fast especially during last night's walk home. Uhh... Yeah I'll be back. I've been here at least ten times. Soggy fries won't stop me. read more

My first time in this place, and I've lived in Oakland a Long time. I got the fish sandwich and coleslaw, so good, classic toppings , and a sesame seed bun. Fast, and friendly, and delicious. I will be back. It smelled too good to wait, so I ate it in the car. read more

Ordered fried oysters last week before heading to a business meeting. The Oysters were delicious until I bit into a "Chipped TOOTH". It was disappointing because the chipped tooth could've broken one of my teeth. Extremely disgusting, Please properly clean and inspect your product. read more

Fish here is pretty good and worth checking out. They give you a good side for what you pay for!

I paid $16.95 for 5 small pieces of fried fish and a ton of frozen French fries? Never again. Service was great...young man working counter should get a raise. read more

Greasy food; not worth the drive to get it. The service was good, it's in a strip mall. I wasn't impressed. I could've gone to an old Fish n chips..... read more

Good food, best to call ahead. Lots of fries for the regular order. The fish we ordered was not filet size more of nugget style. No complaints from my husband. read more

Overpriced, small portions and my snapper wasn't fresh. Went for lunch, plus I had my phone stolen from an employee on a former visit. Wouldn't recommend. read more

I expected less, but was hoping for more from this establishment. Our meal was awful. This is so FAR from Louisiana-style or Cajun style fried fish that it's a shame. The breading is a low-end basic commercial brand that's pretty much tasteless - more flour based- without any hint of cornmeal. The fish is fried soft, placed in a paper tray that's placed inside of a brown paper bag -that is then placed in a plastic bag for carry out. Within 5 minutes your fried fish order is greasy, sweating and terribly limp and soft. I even requested frying the fish and prawns extra-crispy -and add additional seasoning, but the request was not followed. AND, no, they do NOT serve Tartar Sauce, it is some sort of sweet creamy sauce. BUSINESS OWNERS: You just can't put seafood in your supply chain, lightly bread and season it, fry it, serve it and call it Louisiana fried fish. You should't advertise as *fish & chips* either. YOU CANNOT and YOU SHOULD NOT. Although prices were very reasonable -for the amount of food received, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. My go-to cafe in Berkeley was closed yesterday, and I will continue to patronize that establishment because THEY KNOW HOW TO SEASON and FRY FISH. It costs more, but my goodness, there's no comparing to what I received yesterday - absolutely NONE. read more

Food was absolutely delicious and prepared without too much salt. I had oysters which were a decent size and a good portion of French fries. Staff were friendly and helpful with me being a first time customer. Can't wait to try out their other food options. read more

This fish is too good, my parents got me hooked. We get the prawns, sole, and snapper and they all have such a different but still distinct taste. Love it!! read more

Worst fried Cajun chicken ever had went to sleep hungry sent $20 for 10 pice suck a rip off

Just bought their fish and chips for lunch for the first time. Thought the name Louisiana would own up to their name, is just a name. The fish are old and salty, the tartar sauce is sweet and water down. The worst experience and taste I ever had. First time going there and will be my last time. read more

Food tasted good until I bite into my shrimp and found a long strand of hair cooked in it. Called for refund and said they could only do a partial refund for that particular order not every thing. You think I ate anything else when I found hair in my food? No read more

They had delicious food. With great service. I got catfish and prawns. Cooked perfectly! Definitely recommend.

Date: 4/15/2017 Time: 6:50 PM 63° Partly sunny My husband and I decided to stop in to order the 10-piece catfish dinner with sides of coleslaw and potato salad. We chose to take it to go. Louisiana Fish & Chips is a tiny food joint with limited seating. At most, it probably sits about 8 people. I noticed about 4 tables and several chairs. Menu board is located above head and mounted on wall behind the cash register/counter. Refrigerator has bottled cold beverages. Kitchen area is in rear of business. Specialties: seafood (catfish, salmon, tilapia, prawns, oysters), wings, tacos, burritos, gumbo. The catfish dinner and the two sides were okay. Although there were plenty pieces of catfish and it was moist, I found it lacking in flavor. Red potatoes used in preparation of potato salad is better than russet potatoes. I was not impressed with the potato salad. The texture was not the same as a creamy potato salad that I am used to. I had better elsewhere, as in a red food truck that is parked over near Snow Park on certain Wednesdays. Return visit? Might and then might not. Difficult to find street parking close to Louisiana Fish & Chips. read more

The fish and service is always awesome I never had an issue with my order of catfish, oysters, shrimp and the fries

I come here from time to time as they are a consistently solid place to satisfy your fried fish and chip cravings and they are open pretty late. They also get points for having a nice variety of fish to choose from (catfish, snapper, sole, tilapia) as well as offering prawns and oysters. They seafood is seasoned well, fried perfectly on the outside and moist and tender on the inside! The staff is super friendly and very helpful which I love :) Theres just a couple things that makes me give them 4 out of 5 stars: Fries-Always soggy. Its nothing heating them in the oven can't fix but if you're grabbing food to eat at a picnic in the park etc, the fries will be a disappointment. Macaroni Salad-Always watery. I keep trying to get it thinking it will be better one day and it never is. I am not sure if they make it in house or get a big container of it and repackage it but its gross. The mayonaise is really watery and it has an overwhelming taste of peppers and other than that its pretty bland and flavorless. read more

I have the catfish and substitute good rice for the uninspired fries. Reliable, tasty, freshly prepared. The service is pleasant and professional. A good choice. read more

So as much as my husband and I loved this place I am not sure we will be back. My husband stopped in one evening a few months back and he ended up getting really really sick from his food. I am not sure what happened to this place because they were a really really good hidden gem in Oakland. read more

This place is an Oakland classic. The wings are to die for, literally. And the new chicken bites, my god! My husband and I love this place. The fries and onion rings are to die for alone. Extra crispy and extra seasoning And the staff here is excellent! Excellent service, the place is always clean, and they're always super friendly! Highly recommend this spot! I've even seen Mista FAB eating here, so you know it's fire! read more

The service is fine, the place is reasonably clean, the fish was delicious, light, and not greasy, and the prices are reasonable. My only complaint -- hence the 4 stars rather than 5 -- is that they would not provide us with water. I now understand (having researched it) that it is not actually a legal requirement in California that restaurants provide free tap water, and I realize that during the drought many restaurants would not provide provide it unless a customer requested it. (The drought in California is now officially over.) But I've never before eaten in a sit-down restaurant anywhere in the world (including the deserts of the Middle East) where you could not get water unless you paid for bottled water, which we had to do in this instance. read more

So for years I've driven past this spot not really noticing it until my Husband mentioned it was spot he and his grandmother went to and it as good. I was like it's gosh joint over there. I always went to off the hook who had really decent fish. So I made them my go to spot. Well I'm sorry I have a new place to get my gosh from let me tell y the flavors are just right. It has a nice punch of spice and has decent portions. I got the reguLar and had more than enough. So I can only imagine how much fish I would get if I got the large. It's a small place u will pass it if u blink but trust me it is worth keeping your eyes open for it in passing. Great customer service everyone is masked and they practice social distancing. Give it a try trust me u will enjoy it. read more
