Coleslaw

In town for work and craving authentic fish n chips. Found Mr. Fish n Chips thanks to Yelp and we were on our way. Located in a plaza with several businesses, plan a few extra minutes to secure parking. I walked in and was immediately greeted by Mr. Sam, the owner. Really kind man, answered my questions as I was undecided on what to order. We decided on the three piece fish and chips with a side of jumbo shrimp and a two piece fish and chips and a side of coleslaw. The fish portions are big, we could have shared one meal...leftovers for the win! Steak fries and jumbo shrimp were delicious and the coleslaw could put KFC out of business. I chatted with Mr. Sam briefly on the way out and told him he will see me again. Thank you for feeding us, Mr. Sam!

I have been here many times. I love the crunch on the fish and shrimp. The batter isn't really seasoned, but adding malt vinegar, cocktail sauce and/or tartar sauce makes it taste great. The fries are really good as well. The owner(s) are so nice and welcoming.

Top notch customer service. Great fry's that pair perfectly together. What sets them apart is the light batter and the seafood being seasoned and fried to perfection. Always freshly made.

What a great find! My Mom (from England) visits me every month & is always on the hunt for a good fish & chips nearby. Mr. Fish and Chips does NOT disappoint! the fish was a nice size, battered well, crispy, & every bite was delicious. The fries were great as well. Service was excellent, the owner was nice & exchanging stories with my Mom. A very Mom & Pops feel to the shop, I'll certainly be back! Parking lot can get a bit busy

This is one of my top five places to go for Fish and Chips in San Diego. It is what they specialize in and they sure know how to do it right. The owner is nice and friendly and provides good service. It is a small restaurant and you have the option of eating inside or on the patio. No reservations and seating can be limited so we usually go after lunch rush hour or early dinner. The fish is always hot and crispy and the fries are yummy and well seasoned. What I like about the fish is it has a light batter. We order the cole slaw which complements the fish. They also offer shrimp, oyster, clams and chicken strips on the menu. I will have to try the shrimp one of these days and deviate from the yummy crispy fish. They offer condiments like Vinegar and Tarter sauce to go with the fish. Definitely a place to check out if you like Fish and Chips.

Mr. Fish and Chips is aptly named! I came on a Saturday afternoon with one of my friends who had been wanting to check it out. We walked in and proceeded to the ordering counter. We looked at the menu and the 2 piece seemed like it would be filling for one person. We each ordered that and a root beer. The owner behind the counter was efficient and multitasking as he went from frying fish to taking out orders and then back to frying. There's one longer table inside and another smaller one. There were more tables outside but we wanted to stay out of the wind. We waited at the longer table since the smaller one was taken. There were a few others who sat there too but as it seems most people order to go, they would receive their orders and leave. We shortly after got our food. I'm not normally a fan of tartar sauce but this one is worth trying! They also had condiments on the table like the vinegar and ketchup. My first impression when I took a bite was that it was slightly more breaded than I would like but as I ate it, it worked for me. It's hard to find a good fish and chip place nowadays. I live in the Bay Area though so I'd only be able to come here when I'm visiting. That being said, it was a lot of fish and fries and I was more than stuffed by the time I got up with a to go box of leftover fries. The fish was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The fries were also crispy and plentiful. The owner is active and would ask people if they needed boxes, open doors when he could to let people in and out and also delivered the food to each table. Parking is easy here as it's part of a strip mall. I suggest trying this place out if you are in the area and wanting fish and chips. I know I'll be back if I'm ever in the area!

Delicious fish and chips, generous portion and very friendly owner! Will def come back

Didn't realize we have a really good fish and chips shop in Claremont. Have passed by this place so many times, but decided out of nowhere to try it out. Solid fish, solid fries, solid prices for what you get. Service felt personal and friendly. The tartar sauce is so good. Did not realize I could even tell good tartar sauce, but this stuff is amazing.

After traveling overseas. I've found a new found love and craving for Fish and Chips. Have tried multiple places since being back and unfortunately I could not find a place that satisfied my cravings until.... Last night. I've seen this place on tik tok and yelp reviews but I live in Spring Valley and it's quite a drive. I happened to be in the area and decided to give it a try. While ordering I seen a beer that caught my attention because I've never seen it before so I tried it and it was really good. (Pictured) unfortunately I didn't get a picture of the food but it was absolutely amazing. Everything I've been looking for. Taste, Texture and they were good size. I ordered Two piece fish and chips and Two Jumbo shrimp. Hands down Best place thus far and I will definitely be making the drive!!

Great service and food! Even the ambiance is nice inside, there are two medium tables. I ordered and sat at an outside table- people watching (it's located next to a Vons and many other businesses). The food is great. I had the 1 fish n chips and clam strips. Both were delicious. Honestly I should have ordered 2 fish strips. It was so tasty and fresh!!!!! The batter was crispy, and at just the perfect ratio of crisp to moist tender flavorful cod filet. - not like other places where they over batter. I will be back. Most importantly the service was awesome!!!! Super friendly! Thank you for being in San Diego!

Today I brought my new baby out to try out our family's favorite restaurant. Baby-friendly with…read morespace to park the stroller next to our table. We put baby in high chair although baby kept trying to eat the table. We got our usual favorites (warm lobster rolls, clam chowder bowls, fried oyster, and fried clam belly). Surprisingly the clam belly was full of sand this time! Must not have soaked in water long enough, but when we told our server they swapped it out immediately. We substituted one of our coleslaw for potato salad, and one of our fries for onion rings. We definitely will continue doing so because it is nice to try out so many different dishes! As always, order the fries well-done for nice crispy fries. It's still on our to-do list to try the chicken parmesan since we've heard so many good things about it, but I really do like my Must Order dishes (listed below). Must Order (in order of ranking): - Clam chowder bowl - Warm lobster roll - Fried oysters - Fried scallops - Fried clam belly - Fried clam strips - Crab roll Pass: - Fish and chips - Calamari

Lobster roll (warm): It felt like a good amount of lobster, but the soggy roll ruined it for me. I couldn't even pick it up without the whole thing falling apart. The flavor was there but that soggy roll ruined it. Seafood platter: They said it was a plate for two, but I don't know about that. It was nice to try a variety of different seafood. Most of it was good but the fish needs to be firmer. It just fell apart and I wasn't used to that kind of texture. We sat outside in the patio area since inside seemed pretty busy. Service was quick and friendly.

I get it yelpers probably one of the best Aji tuna sandwiches that I've had in a long, long time…read more This is high-grade restaurant quality with the flavors and not the fluff. My friend and I got fish and chips and then we got the Aji tuna sandwich on the brioche bun. I get why this place is five stars because the mix of the seaweed and the ginger and the perfect cook on both fish and chips and on the tuna sandwich was just divine. Service is good, ambience is really low-key. You can tell. They're running the show off of the food which is the star of the whole show. All of the price goes into the food and I get why they are a five star rated location.

My last review for Adrian's Surf N' Turf Grill (ASNTG) was over a year ago, but I've returned…read moreseveral times since then. Each visit, I've tried something new and have yet to be disappointed. The food has always been delicious, and everyone I've brought here has enjoyed it just as much as I do. This time, I ordered the Chicken Brioche Sandwich. It was more than filling, the bacon was perfectly crispy, the sandwich sauce was served on the side, and the seasoned fries came out nice and crisp as well. The best part was that I didn't even have to request any of those details--it felt like the cook read my mind. Three others in our group ordered the fish & chips, while another ordered a cheeseburger. Everyone cleaned their plates, which usually says everything you need to know. I also appreciate how consistently clean the dining room is every time I visit. ASNTG has definitely become one of my go-to spots in the Kearny Mesa area, and I'll continue working my way through the menu on future visits.

The staff will take your order and assign you a table, so do not grab a table without their approval. The seafood all taste fresh. We love the halibut plate with lemon garlic butter.

Tip: we went at 2:30p thinking it is after the lunch rush, but the line was out the door on Sunday. We will stick to 15mins before they open.

I asked her what she wanted and she said, "seafood", so I immediately thought of Blue Water, and we drove right over. We parked at a metered spot nearby & walked in at 5pm. Do note that there is no dedicated parking for Blue Water, so at busy times it may be tricky to find a spot, but we had no trouble today. In the main dining ordering area & on the side patio, there were a few tables that were occupied, but there was no ordering line. All of us wanted shrimp today apparently, so my dad and I both got a shrimp taco with lemon garlic butter & my hungry mom got the shrimp platter also with lemon garlic butter. The platter came with 8 shrimp, jasmine rice, and a lovely, fresh garden salad. The server who took our order and brought it out to us was very helpful & nice. They have a ton of fresh seafood on offer though so if shrimp is not your thing, there will likely be another delightful offering from the sea that will suit your fancy. We sat in the side patio area and it was very pleasant. We enjoyed our experience this evening very much! The tacos were big and had more than 5 shrimp in them, plus cabbage, pico, cheddar cheese & white sauce. One taco was pretty decently sized. If I'd been hungrier, two tacos would've been perfect, but today, I was happy with one taco. Yum! Mom enjoyed her platter. It was beautifully prepared. Blue Water also has a decent soft drink selection and beers and wine, but we all just had their water and it was very refreshing! :) By the time we left at 5:45, a line was forming out the door, so we really came out at a good time. Peace!
