This is like an upscale Long John Silvers. You go to the counter and place your order and when it's ready they bring you the food. Arizona is not the seafood capital of America, but this place was recommended and the reviews were good. Lots of fried food, but they also offer broiled items. I had clams, my wife had fish, with fries and coleslaw. The portions were generous and overall the food was good, not great. They do have outdoor seating which was very nice and comfortable. read more

Excellent and inexpensive is all that I can say. If you want fresh seafood then must try Oscar's. The space is spotless as well. read more

It is great food. Delicious. Love everything from this place. Coleslaw was good too. My husband picks it up on his way home from work.

We have come here a good amount of times. The portions are Large and very tasty. I wish the combos Came with a drink but either way we've returned at least 10 times in a year. read more

Not enough fish places around here. Oscar's has a good choice of fish when ordering fish & chips. The Shrimp Louis is also really good. Go and enjoy yourselves with the friendly staff. read more

This place is cleaner and more delicious than I expected. They have a nice little patio outside. The tables outside and inside are clean. It doesn't have the grease in the air feel that other short stop seafood places have. I had the seafood salad and it was fresh and delicious. My husband got fish sticks and enjoyed them. If you're looking for a quick stop seafood this is the place! read more

We had decided on eating seafood from a new location and choose Oscar's. The seafood seamed very fresh and had really good flavor. This is now one on my husbands favorite place for a quick location to grab some good seafood read more

So I was really hoping to like this place. I visited based on the amazing Yelp reviews thinking yes a great fish and chips place in Phoenix but I was just not that impressed with flavor. I ordered the catfish and the jumbo shrimp but t was just ok, kind of bland. I think I had a very high expectation for the place and was a little let down. The positives: the staff was super friendly and the food is priced really well. They offer an All-You-Can Eat option on different days, include All-you-can eat catfish on Sundays. read more

Was my go to for fried salmon but now they cut it in half so its no longer moist and thick. Will have to find another spot.

Great food! Little pricey but taste is worth it :) this will be my place to go when we visits phoeni x again:) read more

We decided to try this place based on the reviews. The staff was nice and the food was great. We will definitely come back.

Got a hankering for some seafood? Go here. Seafood in the desert is hard to find decent fare. I can vouch for their fried cod, light and flaky. We both order combo cod meals, mine with fried clams and my wife's with shrimp. I got a massive order of clams, but the batter/coating is too overwhelming, taking away all taste of clams. I'd suggest a much lighter batter and not to deep fry it too long. They were overcooked and dry. My wife's shrimp were good! I washed it down with a Mexican beer. Service was good and we sat outside on a nice day. I'd give it a five if the clams were not over cooked or over-battered, but everything else was good! read more

Ron, What an ass!! I have more money than you even realize. It's not about money it's about getting what you pay for. I can go to Bambino's s on a Friday night and get 8 pieces Cod fish, cole slaw and fries for $14.00 and a draft beer to get with it. Don't worry we will never go back nor will recommend your place that anyone. read more

Wife and been wanting to try this place for some time. We finally went the other day. I have to say we were SO DISAPPOINTED we didn't try this place SOONER. The 2 girls work up front were so helpful and and answered all are questions. It being our first time we had a lot. We placed our order and it was brought out to our table in good time. We got a little bit of everything. The fish we got Cod, Haddock and cat fish. We also got some shrimp and an order of Clam chowder. It all really good but I have to say the Clam chowder was some of the best I have ever had. read more

Many positives abound for Oscars Pier 83. Local owned which is solely lacking here in Phoenix. It may be one of the cleanest, orderly restaurants I've been in here in Phoenix and they are to be commended for all of that. I'm just not deep pocketed enough to eat here. The Clam Chowder was good but the cup was pretty small for the price and the Jumbo Cod taco was jumbo filled w/ lettuce and tomato with a small piece of cod lurking at the bottom. Fried clam strips were ok, per my friend, and this item isn't available at many other locations so that's a positive. I most likely won't return; however, If one can afford to really load up on stuff here then you should be ok as portions + price just don't work for those like me. read more

Went here for the bottomless fish and chips. Was able to make it through three orders, aka 6 pieces of fish. Fish was hot and crispy as well as the fries. Nothing amazing, but a decent place if you're craving fish and chips. read more

The fish portions are quite generous and delicious! I thoroughly enjoyed the Cod fish and chips alongside the clam chowder bread bowl. I will certainly be coming back for more of their scrumptious seafood. read more

This is a very hidden gem of a seafood restaurant. No big fancy shining sign, not a lot of advertising. But this has got to be the best seafood in town! We have never been disappointed with our food, and the staff is great! We didn't have a 'regular' place, until we went here! I highly recommend them! read more

Waited a year to come to the Valley and eat at our Favorite Fish Tacos Restaurant and it did not disappoint. We got 2 Cod Fish Tacos and an order of Calamari off the their Monday Madness selection and it was delicious. Perfectly fried fish and thin slightly crispy tortilla make the fish taco wonderful. The fried Calamari Steak strips are super tender and tasty. It had been awhile but I was glad to see they are still making the best Seafood in the Valley. read more

Vibe: 9/10, was fairly quiet; cod: 9/10, crispy on the outside, yumm; fries; 8/10; fried clams: 5/10, too much breading, couldn't taste the clams; clam chowder: 7/10, a little too salty; soft shell crab: 9/10. read more

This is the best fish & chips place in town. It reminds me of the UK when I was studying abroad. I love going on Tuesdays for the $3.50 fish tacos - they're huge. I like the combo meals. I also enjoy Oscar's Ultimate Combo because it consists of a little bit of everything: shrimp, calamari strips, cod, chicken strip, oyster, and fried clam strips in addition to fries & coleslaw. It's a whole package of fried goodies. The clam chowder has a good consistency that is not too watery or too thick - just perfect. Food is fantastic, but service is very slow. Be prepared to wait at least 20 minutes or more on busy days. If you're a Midwestern student, you can get a student discount on your order. Remember to mention that to them at check-out. You can also get 10% off your entire order for checking in on yelp. read more

I often come here because the owner keeps the place very clean inside. Also the sea food is prepared lightly but seasoned well for the batter making it not so much breading to eat through. The price is well appreciated and is fair with the amount of food you get. Sundays there is all you can eat catfish for great price. read more

I'm an aficionado of fish n chips. If it's on the menu, it's not easy for me to pass up. There are a few things I look for: 1) thick fillets unless the fish fillets don't call for it, 2) thin but tasty breading, 3) cooked well (not overcooked). Oscar's get all criteria checked although overall I'd give them 4.5 anchors on flavor. I ordered the haddock (cod is the most popular offering, so I appreciated they had several choices). I only eat with some lemon juice drizzle because I want to taste the fish. Overall, very, very good. The haddock had flavor (cod and tilapia typically have the least). The breading was a little plain but was very nicely thin and not overwhelming. I also had a cup of their clam chowder. Really good, creamy, think and chunky with the clams noticeable. For an introduction, it was worth to 40 minute drive for me. My next trip out here will be to try another fish but I'll do it when I've got a reason to be closer. read more

This is a very casual family owned seafood restaurant where you order at the counter and they run the food to you. Most of the seafood is fried but they do offer broiled seafood too and many people come for the all you can eat seafood specials. The special of the day was called jumbo halibut taco for $6.75 so I ordered it and had my choice of broiled or fried. I didn't think one taco would be enough so I added on a side salad for somewhere around $3.00. My taco was very packed with LOTS of very fresh shredded cabbage but my fish was terribly dry but edible and was plain but on the top of all that cabbage and some diced tomatoes was a tasty creamy chipotle sauce and on the side was a fresh made pico. They called it jumbo and it was big but it was the same size as the other tacos my husband ordered. The side salad was freshly made and not from a bag. The fried fish tacos my husband had (shrimp and maui maui) were much better than the halibut. They were set up the same way but he asked for the creamy sauce of the side. For my husband he thought they had too much cabbage in them and he scooped half the cabbage out. I've been here before but it was a while back. I'll go back because they offer many other tasty things to try but it is too soon to be a fan (4 stars) because of the very dry halibut but I do note maybe they normally cook it better and I just got an over cooked one? The person at the counter was very patient and helpful in the ordering process. I hope to up them a star on my next visit. read more

We ordered the broiled salmon and fish and chips dinner. Both were very good. I had the seafood pasta salad - I don't like shrimp so I just picked those out but the crab was great. Grilled vegetables needed a little more grilling but they were good too read more

Service was great. Food was good. A hidden gem. Staff kept the place clean. Will visit this place again.

I was skeptical of this place because eating seafood in a landlocked state seemed weird after living in FL and CA my entire life and just moving to AZ, but WOAH, was I wrong. First of all how does the fish taste so fresh!? Amazing! I've gone back multiple times and had take out during the pandemic. The quality is top notch, I was so surprised! Definitely give this place a try it's great quality and taste you won't be disappointed. The Cod Taco and the Cod fish and chips are so solid. read more

Having lived in Seattle, was accustomed to good seafood and clam chowder. Never found it in the Phoenix area, until finding Oscar's. Everything is excellent and by far the best chowder in the SW. Highly recommend. read more

Great family owned business. Very clean and food always taste fresh! We only eat here when we want some good fish! Service is always excellent. Clam chowder, fish tacos, hush puppies and fried cod sandwich are the bomb! read more

The fish and chips were mediocre at best. The fish was watery under the fried crust. The chips were NOT chips, they were French Fries. And, the French fries were soggy. Definitely not worth $12 dollars. On top of that the staff that is cooking and serving were not wearing masks. Wearing a mask is to protect others from COVID 19, NOT ourselves. The serious spike in COVID 19 cases and deaths is because people are not wearing masks. As a business that is part of our community, the business owners should care about the communities health and safety. Not wearing masks is thoughtless and quite frankly stupid. I will not be returning. read more

Found this little gem on Yelp and it did not disappoint! The cod fish and chips and battered shrimp (both adult and kid combos) were delicious!

Delicious fish and chips. And the calamari strips are awesome. I literally never deviate from this order because it's the best

I visited Oscar's for the first time about two weeks ago. My boyfriend has been a patron for years. The vibe is very casual. You go to the counter to order and then they bring your food out to your table. I ordered some type of fish taco ($6 I think?) and my boyfriend ordered the Oscar's Ultimate Combo ($17.99) which included 2 jumbo shrimp, 2 calamari strips. 2 pieces of cod, 1/4 lb friend clam strips, fries, and coleslaw. We shared each other's meals and while his was tasty I thought my fish taco was better because of the sauce. :) I do have to say that out of all of the sea food places I have tried in Phoenix this has been my favorite so far. The staff was very friendly, the prices are decent, and the food tasted outstanding. Shout out to Oscar's for being so rad. :) read more

Best fish EVER! It's behind CVS Drug Store I'm strip mall, corner of Union Hills & 59th Ave. Watch store signage bec you might pass it.
