    I've had On the Hook a few times over the years when their food trick is nearby. It's a pretty good option if you're craving fish and chips because not a lot of places specialize in them. They are more American style with long and skinner fried fish that has a thick batter. That's my main downside is that the fish are dredged with batter and a lot of your bite is breading and not fish. The fries are crispy and good. Tartar sauce tastes fresh as well. Everything is fried fresh and comes out piping hot which is great.

    Can't wait for some awesome fish and chips.

    East Ft. Worth location. We got there right when the truck was winding up their time at the Eastchase stop. There was no line so service was super quick. The fish and chips were what I expected and prepared as expected. The three pieces are an ample amount to satisfy my craving for fish and chips. Totally yummy. I love their sweet chili sauce.

    I've been frequenting On The Hook for the last couple of years when they are in Plano or near Little Elm. This used to be the ultimate go-to for delicious fish and chips, but the portion of fries has significantly decreased while the prices continue to climb. I'm not sure if certain trucks are being frugal or if this is the new norm, but I don't feel like I get $19 worth of food anymore, and it's been like this for a while now. I haven't found a place with better fish (Alaskan cod) and chips yet, so I keep coming back. It just doesn't feel worth it anymore.

    This what I got for $14  Q til is for size comparison

    You get 3 stars cause the food was good. But for $14 all u get is three little pieces of meat SIDES ARE NOT INCLUDED THE French fries are extra if you want them. I work hard for my money this is to expensive for my blood. I'll be going to Long John Silver's from now on.

    Food taste great. Good fish and fries. Not a big fan of the cole slaw. Also my tray was worth the price(first pic). My sisters look like they just took 3 strips and said "this'll do"(second pic). And the first pic was after I already ate some. Don't really agree with the portion for the $18 price tag. Clam chowder was good.

    Stopped by while they visited Kerrville. Best fish food truck I've had to date. New yelp account, fourth fish food truck. Price was on point. Sunny and the crew told everyone 6-7 minutes for order. They were exactly that. COD was crisp and should had gotten two orders of fries for a snack at midnight. Very good. Back in Kerrville October.

    Cod Sandwich and fries with a tasty root beer.

    On the Hook Fish & Chips food truck delivered an outstanding experience. From the moment we walked up, we were greeted with a friendly smile and a genuine "how can I help you." I ordered the Cod Sandwich and two Fish and Chip plates. The portions were generous, and the flavors did not disappoint. The cod was cooked to perfection--crispy on the outside and tender inside. The Fish and Chips plates were just as delightful, with flaky fish and well-seasoned fries. The spicy mayo was the star of the show, adding just the right kick to elevate the Cod Sandwich to the next level. This is a food truck worth chasing down!

    Really enjoyed the fish and chips plate from On the Hook. I arrived at about 11:45am and had my food very soon after I ordered. Both fish and chips were still crispy by the time I picked it up and drove back home to eat. The gentleman taking the orders was very pleasant and offered their new Chile sauce...it was good!

    OK boys and girls, gather around. Finally, after long last, I have found a real fish and chips dinner. This is how it is supposed to be done. The right fish, no extra heavy doughy batter covering, excellent fries with the coup de gras...malt vinegar (even if it was in packets-it is a food truck after all). On a scale of 1 to 5 I give them a 10. After being stationed in Scotland for two years I saw what F&S should look and taste like. I have only had one equally satisfying experience in California years ago, but that place is no longer in operation. Take it to the bank...get on the hook!

    I'm staying at The Loren Hotel and tried this restaurant on the 8th floor last night for dinner and…read morewas so impressed that I returned for breakfast- the egg frittata with lemon ricotta was perfection. Let me start by saying that I was so impressed with my dinner that I had to ask a server if it was a Michelin star rated restaurant. I highly recommend the half chicken infused with basil, which was a beautiful flavor. The broccolini was my favorite, with the grilled lemony parmesan topping it was a showstopper. Even the french fries, which I was not supposed to eat, were tasty with their own house dip.. I did have a slight bit of food envy though- my friend ordered the filet, which she said was one of the best she's ever had. I'll let you know after I return tonight.!

However, the food leaves quite a bit to be desired. We got the peach caprese with focaccia dish and the focaccia had grill marks on it that tasted like a gas grill. It left a really weird Smokey, propane like taste. It would've been better just fresh out of the oven without the grill marks that seemed to just be for aesthetics. We also got the rigatoni and the pasta sauce was so so thin, like water. It didn't stick to the pasta at all and it wasn't spicy, it was just covered in red pepper flake which they were a bit too heavy handed with. We also got the XO chicken and it was very light on sauce which it kind of needed because it was a bit dry. Overall pretty disappointing and we left hungry because we didn't want to try anything else after striking out three times. Sadly wouldn't recommend as there are other places in Austin that are truly great.

We were excited to try the food, and were hungry. Our server appeared (I can't remember his name but he was a short guy with blond hair). I ordered a cocktail and my husband ordered beer to begin with. He went away and then came back asking my husband if he wanted some whiskey cocktail, and we corrected him that we had asked for a particular beer. No big deal. We then ordered the deviled eggs and shishito peppers, and the red fish and short ribs for entree. A lady brought us the drinks, and the deviled eggs. Our server swung by and then disappeared. We thought the shishito peppers were on their way. We waited for what seemed like a really long time and still no shishito peppers. We also noticed that each table had a carafe of water except ours. We were just given water once, and then our server never bothered to fill the water up. Anyway, we kept waiting since there was no sign of the server. At this point, we felt he might have forgotten the second appetizer and we just did not want it, but he was nowhere to be found. A man (not our server) brought out our entrees. We then told him that we had been waiting for our second appetizer and would just want to cancel it. We asked if we could get the biscuits instead. He brought out the biscuits within a few minutes. Now this is where it really annoyed us. Had our server just come over and said he had forgotten our shishito peppers, it would have been okay. Human. What he tried was act smart and dropped by saying the shishito peppers would be out to which we said that we didn't want an appetizer after an entree and had cancelled it. I almost felt like he was treating us as if he thought we don't really dine out or whatever and he could just make fools of us. This really didn't sit right with me. We asked him for water and he filled it up left. The food was above average. The short ribs were good but my red fish had been hammered! The biscuits were good. The deviled eggs were good as well. Anyway, we finished our meal, and got the check, paid, and were waiting to finish our drinks. The receipt was on our table. Also, note, it was not a particularly busy day with several empty tables. What our server did next was absolutely unacceptable. I think he wanted to see if we had tipped him after his awful service. We did, but not 20% as we always do because of the soddy job he did, not to mention his attitude. We paid 15% which I think was more than what he deserved now. Out of nowhere, and mind you,after being absent for long periods before, he just came by, grabbed the paid up bill from our table to our shock, while we were still sitting and talking, looked at the bill, turned towards us, and muttered something angry under his breath and walked away. I have never seen this level of entitlement and bad behavior. We left right away. We had been really looking forward to this meal but I would not want to go back. The food was good, but not great, and I would not want to put up with such obnoxious behavior as a paying customer.

They all qualified for the happy hour except for the lobster pasta. Everything tasted amazing. I enjoyed the crab fingers the most because it was flavorful and left me wanting more.

I added an egg, and it made for a healthy, delicious, and satisfying lunch. My husband, however, ordered the gumbo, and that dish was unfortunately disappointing. It was watery, very salty, and came with barely any rice, so we ended up with a lot of salty stew left over. There also wasn't much crab or shrimp, and the seafood we did find was tough and overcooked. Based on other reviews, I can see why Mongers may still be worth another visit if you stick strictly to their seafood-focused dishes. But based on this experience, it felt a little too much like a gamble, so I'm not sure I'd personally rush back.
