I went here last week & I'm sorry I did. That was the worst food ever. My son ordered the food for us from outside through a window because people can't go inside to order. That's why there's always people standing outside. I thought they were on line waiting to order because the food was so good. They were standing outside because there's no way to go inside to order. The place is a hole in the wall that looks dingy and dirty. I shouldn't have bought anything from them but I try to give black businesses support. They put the food in a cheap paper dish that was greasy & fell apart. The paper bag was greasy. The French fries spilled out & were soggy from the grease. The fish wasn't fresh & tasted nasty. The fish, shrimp & chicken had no taste whatsoever. I couldn't even eat the food because it was greasy and tasted nasty. They didn't season the fish, shrimp or the chicken. I'm sorry I don't live near there or I would've taken that nasty food back & got my money back. The health department needs to go there to inspect that place. I'm sure they'll fail. I'll never go there again & I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. read more

Stumbled on this place but it's literally the best seafood spot in the City a low key gem Old school style fresh fish nobody doin this anymore I will be back read more

I asked if there was flounder, the guy at the window said he had only Whiting. I ordered it with the shrimp and fries. It was so expensive and I noticed the bag was very light. For this same amount of money I can go to Golden Corral around the corner and get almost 4 to 5 times the amount of food. Anyway, when I opened the bag at home... I was so disappointed... the fish looked so paper thin and barely there. But the shrimp were edible at least. Not worth the order. I support any business regardless of ethnicity that I hand over my hard earned money to and gives me appropriate service. This isn't it. read more

The food is good however the service is through a window. I thought you could go inside and order your food. And they only take cash.

I was a customer from day one. Literally day one. Once shrimp box closed this became my spot. I was the first to suggest they use the delivery apps. Came every Thursday and Friday during Covid. Today, using Uber Eats, I asked for a slice of bread in the notes and the owner didn't send it. When I called, he said I can't have what I don't pay for. There was no option to add a slice of bread on Uber. No problem. Customer lost. I will drive to Johnny's on city island before I go back to PFC read more

I usually don't like to make bad recommendations on small businesses but I would make an exception on this one. Why would anyone recommend this place beats me. The fish served was not even seasoned with the minimum seasoning of salt and pepper neither was the dusting flour used to fry the fish. Obviously the oil was not hot enough the fries was soggy overdone and disgusting. Since it was a takeaway you couldn't see what was in the bag. When opened the fish covered over the soggy fries it was just repulsive. This is a basic order how could one get it so messed up! read more

Parkchester Fish & Chips Restaurant - Fish and chips - Fish & Chips Near Me - Bronx, New York

First and foremost: Support small black owned business! Lets continue: I've eaten at this location at least 5 times to say PLEASE GIVE MORE FOOD. Yes seafood is expensive but the portion sizes are for children. The "lunch" special is their already small portioned meals made into a joke. I am a grown adult with a normal appetite and this is really unacceptable. The fries are made fresh but I truly would rather some frozen ones because they are always soggy and soaked in oil. If you want sauce for your kids shrimp meal its 2.00 EXTRA! You already give 5 shrimps now you have to charge for extra tartar sauce?! THE GOOD: Fried perfectly and made with fresh fish. The bad outweighs too much to actually consider eating here again - but the cakes always look so delicious and everytime I've ordered I have seen people rave about their cakes. If you're in the area and you are hungry - do not go here. If you have time to spare in the area and you want a seafood option - be my guest. Im also starving after eating my shrimp lunch special and writing this 45 minutes after my meal. OVERALL: A SOLID 3 BUT THE 2 IS FOR THE PORTIONS & WAIT TIME FOOD: 4 PORTION: 2 PRICE: 2 SERVICE: 3 read more

Parkchester Fish & Chips Restaurant - Shrimp Lunch Special (5 Shrimp) - Fish & Chips Near Me - Bronx, New York

Fish was overall good. But what pushes is over the top is the Tarter Sauce. I always order an extra container of it. Stop by the place will not disappoint you. read more

So, if I tell you what I had to do to get this fish lol... Naah, honestly I'm cool with unconventional ways of doing things. My friend from the area suggested this place. I looked into the knee high window at the artisan over the stove and gave him my order. I wasn't sure if he heard me until he yells back "aight, gimme a few" so I went to the bodega next door. Long story short I come out of the bodega to " it's ready, brother" and I received my order of whiting fish & chips in a piping hot paper bag. Before I could ask, the guys says "there's hot sauce, ketchup and tartar sauce in the bag. I don't know if he caught the fish that morning somehow or if this recipe was passed down from generations of skilled fish fryers but man in my opinion it was perfect. Before I walked off I asked the guy did they deliver to Queens, Bro look at me like your older sibling does when you say something corny. I'm not ashamed. No complaints. read more

Tastefully satisfies I was expecting some huge pieces of fish and shrimps like on picture I was totally disappointed.. Heard so much about this place from friends ,but for the 14.50 I paid for the big combo their was nothing big about it. It was like kids portion whiting fish were so small chicken wings were over cooked and shrimp . Let's just say I'm not a happy camper, but all in all it did taste scrumptious. The staff Is very well mannered and pleasant read more

Omg I see so many people talk bad about the fries and they are the best part of the meal..fresh cut home fries..maybe people want those McDonald's fries I guess ...the shrimps are the Bestt so good lightly breaded and nicely seasoned the fish is always nice and fresh read more

Parkchester Fish & Chips Restaurant - a plate of fried shrimp and fries - Fish & Chips Near Me - Bronx, New York

Small family owned business that serves awesome fried fish/seafood. Places like this are far and few in between, so I'm glad I found my old school fish spot. Although the place itself is not much to look at, the food is very good, and the staff are very nice. The even have lunch specials on the weekdays.The shrimp and chips are my favorite read more

Parkchester Fish & Chips Restaurant - menu - Fish & Chips Near Me - Bronx, New York

Wow I must say for a small establishment this was the best fish and shrimp I ever had in my life and I've eaten everywhere it was so lightly battered and fresh it remind me of a old Harlem place .I just bumped into it but I will be back read more

Food is super bomb and fresh. Only thing they need to add to their menu is Fried Calamari and it'd be perfect. I never go to the chain restaurants for fried foods now and go here instead. Highly recommend their onion rings. I'm actually not sure if they're house made or from a store but they definitely 100% taste house made. Also get any of their dishes with fried fish, fried chicken or shrimp. read more

The fish is good the only grip I have is the staff is not really people friendly I'm sitting in my car to prevent from getting a ticket .the guy answers the phone n tells me no food orders over the phone I'm telling him but I'm sitting outside . He shows no concern . I spent $23.00 and asked for salt n could not even get a grain of salt . read more

11-2 lunch special, arrived about 1:58,( My friend is hyped about the spot and took me ) I never been, he talking with the fryer/cook, ordered food 2 mins after 2pm Fish, Shrimp and Chips combo was ordered, bill came to $40, I looked at my friend and said what happen to the lunch special ( now it wasn't ordered as such, let me get a lunch special etc ) so my friend asked what's the difference between the lunch special and what the cook gave, he was told the size. My friend went with what was given. 2 cakes and 2 Juices he ordered in addition. 1 juice was a lemonade drink, and had what may have been a Gnat that fly's around, so I quietly mentioned something was floating in the drink, the cook at the window takes it, looks at it shakes it around, asked where, I pointed it out, he said it must of came from the sugar, tries to pour it out, instead of giving another drink, hands it back to me and the GNat is still in it. I said to my friend it's still in it, he did not switch the drink, so my friend took my drink and gave me his. Now I finally get to the food and the side of the papa we bowl was not something that seemed large. I'm wondering now why the lunch special suppose to be a difference. Small pieces of fish and a about 3 shrimps and fries were in the small bowl. No seasoning taste on the fish, or fries, only the shrimp taste like it had seasoning. I was okay with just adding hot sauce and ketchup. Not sure if I will go back. read more

Okay first this was my first time buying and eating at this place I'm so mad that I even bought food here first the fish had no taste it tasted like orchard beach then the fries were soggy and look burnt very greasy to bad it's in my community of parkchester but I do t recommend this place seriously read more

Well, I have to give my wife props on this one. Having gotten out of work early, we decided to head down to Parkchester and do a little shopping. After some lengthy 'window shopping' we realized how hungry we were. Since we were near Archer Ave. My wife decided to take me to a little out of the way place that serves some pretty good food called 'Dee's Fish & Chips'. Not a fancy place by any means, it's just a small little shop, that serves up a nice plate of food. We ordered two of the 'Fish, Shrimp and Chips' combo (just $11.50ea) and each order had three nice sizes pieces of fried Whiting, with a side serving of some good size shrimp all topped on a good serving of thick cut fries piled into a paper food basket. The Whiting was fried perfectly and was nice and flaky. I thought it could have used a little more seasoning but it was still very good. The shrimp was also very good. Nice and tender with a nice breading. The fries were just how I like them. Thick. And the fries at 'Dee's' were cooked until perfectly golden brown. And you know your food is fresh because they cook the food as ordered. No plates of pre-fried fish sitting under heat lamps. Your food is cooked right before your eyes and served nice and hot out of the fryer. If in the Parkchester area and looking for a some good food, after a afternoon of shopping, try Dee's Fish & Chips. read more

First of all, packaging sucked. They wrapped food in wrapping paper that really didn't contain food well. My daughter ordered chicken and chips and was ok with it. My son and hubby ordered the fish and shrimp combo. We only received 1 order. I had a fish sandwich and we ordered 2 slices of red velvet cake. Only 1 slice of cake was sent. My son said the shrimp was ok. We all felt the fish was terrible. It was almost non existent in the breading and it was bland. We had to drown it in hot sauce. I felt like I was eating a rice cake between bread slices. Won't order from here again. Stick to City Island or even Popeye's fish sandwich is easy way, way better. It is also too expensive for what you get. read more

This place is awesome the fish and chips are really good the staff is nice the food is delicious

SO. I've been having a fish/seafood craving lately, with dreams of whiting and shrimp dancing. Okay maybe not. But I've really been craving anything that lives in water so I decided to try this little spot since the reviews were decent enough and this place is a short walk from the Q44 stop in Parkchester. The fiance and I made plans to eat there for lunch. NOW. This place is great to go in, get your food and eat al fresco in the park on White Plains Road or in your car since they do NOT have seating inside. I felt some of the previous reviews were a bit misleading in this respect. This is just your typical fish spot around the way. No more, no less. As far as the service, the two guys working the counter were very friendly. You can tell they're from the neighborhood or at least worked there for a while by the way they chatted up customers They were patient as my fiance and I read the menu, making our selections (He got the shrimp and chips, I got a fish sandwich on white bread). Our food was cooked to order and after about a 10 minutes wait, it was ready. We took our food to the park mentioned above and proceeded to grub. I liked that my fish sandwich was still piping hot, with about 5 pieces of fish which is hella generous for a fish place. As far as seasoning, I felt the fish could have benefited from some more salt, pepper and maybe garlic powder. Out of 10, I gave it a 6. My fiance loved his shrimp, which was cooked (and seasoned, strange enough) perfectly. He felt that the chips (fries) were cut too thick, more appropriate for, say, a steak than shrimp. The shrimp he gave a 7, fries got a 4. If you're in the Parkchester area and you want some fish, nothing extraordinary, just some decent fish then I would def recommend this place. If however you're looking for solidly delicious seafood then my vote remains with A Taste of Seafood on 125th Street in East Harlem. read more

My first and last time ordering from this place. Total disappointment!!! I ordered two all fish ($12 each) and two macaroni tuna salads. The all fish was 3 pieces and no macaroni salad. I also ordered a fish and shrimp combo with fries. It was supposed to be four fish and four shrimp. No shrimp was with my order. The fish was bland. Tatar sauce that was sent was less than half full. Total jip all the way!!!! You were recommended however I cannot recommend you to anyone! Grubhub reimbursed me but then conveniently it said that I "skipped" leaving a review. Thank you Yelp for making it possible for me to tell exactly what happened with my order. read more

I've been eating here since I was a kid and my mom took me to work with her. Now as an adult, we always come in for wings and fish sandwiches. Everyone that works there is super nice and you can always expect the service to be stellar. As for the food, you really can't imagine to do any better. The fish is always hot and well-seasoned, it doesn't even need the tartar sauce! They closed for a bit and now their name has changed but the food is still just as great. read more

Really great place it's a family run business and the food is delicious . The have everything from seafood two chicken they also steam food here. And we can't forget there home made desserts read more

Wow, this spot is a gold mine! The food is delicious man. Shout out too the guys working, very cool, laid back and down too Earth. #SUPPORTBLACKBUSINESS #LOCALFISHANDCHIPS #BX read more

Delicious fried fish , order takeout, its quick , hot and at a reasonable price.

Black owned business so I had to support, fresh fish is definitely what stands out. The food was nice and hot and tasted amazing. I appreciate the ordering process giving Covid.....and the food was great. Will definitely support read more

I just moved to the Bronx and wanted some good fried fish. I came on here and saw the reviews so instead of going to HARLEM where they have the best seasoned fish and chips, I came here. I spent $29 dollars on chicken wings, shrimp, fish, fries, macaroni salad and chocolate cake. The fries were dark and burnt, as if they gave me the little scraps that were left at the bottom of the fryer. The whiting that I received had NO seasoning whatsoever on it. However, the fried shrimp was seasoned WELL. Guess the whiting was allergic to seasoning and being fried hard, because it was so soft. The chicken wings looked like they had potential, but even those had no seasoning. I had to add my own seasoning to everything but the shrimp. Now, let's get to the macaroni salad. It tasted like the one from the grocery store, but just with tuna added in, and a SMALL bit of seasoning. Ohhhh, can't forget the chocolate cake! The edge of the cake was burnt and was covered up with a THIN layer of frosting. There was even a thinner layer of frosting in the middle of the cake. The cake itself was hard and not soft at all. I threw the cake out. I was highly disappointed with my first order here and this was definitely my last. I will be making the trek to Harlem from now on for some GOOD fried seafood. They never disappoint! read more

Best fish and chips. Shrimps is slammin'. I haven't had the slices of cake yet, but it'll happen soon. The place appears to be clean and the food is made to go. Parking is a bit of a headache, so be smart, bring a friend. read more

This place is a joke, they need to just erase their steamed seafood menu. Everytime i go in here to get steamed seafood the steamer is broken or like today the man tells me "the steamer isnt on". I looked at him and smirked and just left, like really? Well turn it on then ! If u just wanna sell fried food then just say that, fact of the matter is they dont like dealing with the steamer so they tell u some none sense. I try to support my people and local businesses but this place has been the same old thing since they opened, i even stopped coming here for about a year and i come back trying to give them another chance and its the same old story as if i never stopped. Their fried food is good but alot of people want a healthier alternative to fried food and i guess obviously this place isn't trying to accommodate those customers. read more

I order fish and chips(fries) .. The fries were fired in dirty old oil so they were soggy, dark and had a bad taste. The fish had no flavor what so ever just had an old dirty oil flavor. idk if it was because I went at night. but MY experience wasn't so good and Id rather not go back. read more

Being that I am from Harlem....(Harlem World stand up!!!)....I am no stranger to awesome, finger-lickin fried fish and chips spots, and I do have my go-to location for fried fish, chips, fish sandwhich, fried shrimp, etc. and that is of course Famous Fish on the corner of 145th Street & St. Nicholas Ave. Now that I live in the Bronx, I recently decided that I had to find my Bronx go-to location for fish and chips since Famous Fish is a 20min cab ride away, they have no seating to sit and eat your food, and I like to eat my fish&chips hot and fresh. So after internet searching, I found Dee's Fish & Chips which is a 5min cab ride away. I had a craving for crispy, fried, tasty fish, perfectly cooked french fries laced with ribbons of tangy tarter sauce, so last night I took the trip to Dee's Fish & Chips. When I arrived at 8pm, I noticed that the name on the storefront is not Dee's Fish & Chips, it was something else, but I was so excited that I just walked right in and did not take note of the actual name. The next most important factor that I noticed was that there was no line, and I was the only customer during my entire 15min visit. This is not a good sign being that this is the only fried fish spot in this neighborhood, demographically speaking. So the two guys in the shop were very nice and professional and the place was not fancy at all. I did not expect it to be glamourous anyway because most great fish & chips spots are simple and the food speaks for itself. It was however pretty clean as far as my eyes could see, and that of course is a big plus. I ordered the fish, shrimp, and chips combo which cost me about $14 (pretty average price for this meal). It came with 5 pieces of fried whiting, 4 medium-large sized shrimp, and a handful of chunky steak fries mixed with some medium sized fries. The fries were not all the same size, which was a little different, but all of them were cooked all the way. A funky factor was that my food did not come with any bread....no bread??? This is not common with authentic fish&chips spots! So to make my meal the real deal, I stopped at a corner store and picked up a $2 pack of whole wheat bread. When I got home, my food was still hot and fresh and I proceeded to dig in. When I tasted the fish, my taste buds were waiting for that flavor...that salty-fish-fried yummy taste...but I was left longing for that goodness which was clearly lacking. The fish had nooo flavor at all. I quickly busted open my kitchen cabinet and mixed up a concoction of garlic powder, salt, and sazon to sprinkle over the fish. That really saved it because I continued to happily eat. The pieces of fish were also very thinly sliced making it very possible to eat all 5 pieces without feeling like a total glutton. I tried one of the shrimp and strangely enough the shrimp had good flavor. This is probably because shrimp has its own natural shrimpy flavor which is what I was most likely tasting. The fries also needed a sprinkle of my seasoning mixture which is unforgivable b/c all fried potatoes need are a dust of salt and pepper and they would have been fine. I noticed that the cook did not put any seasoning on the fries when he took them from the frier...tisk, tisk. The tarter sauce was probably one of the best things as it was not watered down and deliciously tangy. But of course, they charge you .50 extra for each small, tiny container of tarter sauce requested. You get 2 little containers free, but only if you did not dress your food with the bottle of tarter sauce on the counter before it was wrapped up to go. Of course, I dressed my food before it was wrapped up so I had to pay the extra .50 per tarter sauce. All in all, If I am craving fish&chips desperately, I would go back to "Dee's" (forgot the real name) but I think I would only get the shrimp and chips. But then of course I would still be craving flaky, crispy, yum-yum fried fish. For that, I would have to take the hike to Harlem to Famous Fish on 145th Street & St. Nicholas Ave. Their fish is AMAZING, the best, the pieces of fish there are not see-through thin, they are the perfect size, and I always have several pieces of fish left over for the next day with one order. Also, every order comes with 2 free slices of warm, fluffy whole wheat bread. Additionally, Even when you dress your food with the tarter sauce bottles on the counter here, you still get free and unlimited extra tarter sauce containers upon request. I guess the only "con" at Famous Fish is that there is always more than likely a line that sometimes stretches halfway down the block...but of course this means that the food is worth the wait. read more

This place was DELICIOUS! THE FISH WASN'T OVERLY SEASONED and was not overdone. The chicken was crispy and golden brown. I am now a regular lol read more

Had this place booked marked for a long time cause it's always good to have a good fish and chips place. So I finally decided to stop in and I wasn't thrilled. The staff seemed ok, place looked clean. I like that the food was made to order, always a plus. I found the fish to be a bit bland in flavor although it was cooked to the right texture. Wasn't pleased that they charge to give you bread, especially when what I ordered didn't come with any fries or sides. The shrimp were good, different from what I expected but good. The only reason I'm giving it a third star. I guess the search continues for a go to spot in the Bronx. read more

Great spot, for good old soul food! Love the shrimp and fish combo! Oh and they have red velvet cake ! Can't go wrong for pick up food, plus I like to support local businesses. read more

Our Go to spot for our chicken wing and fish fix. Been going for over 10 years and the food and service is always excellent.

I think imma stop by after work today lol only thing I can nitpick is they cheap with the tarter sauce lmao but its all good. read more

The real deal. No bullsh**in straight up soul food with sweet potato pie and soft-shelled crab deals once a week. Good stuff
