Easily my favorite restaurant in Nashville. It's so good that I eat it all before thinking of taking a photo. Everything on the menu is great. I could eat here every day forever. read more

Hands down the best fish and chips I've had in Nashville. Oddly enough, I have to start with the tartare sauce. Wow. Wow. Wow. I love traditional cheap mayo-based tartar sauce and this blew it away. Made me realize that everyone else is doing it wrong. It's thick and fresh and subtle and just incredible. The fish was fresh and flaky and delicious. The portion was a little small for the price, but good fish isn't cheap. And I was satisfied after the meal. The fries looked like typical fries from a bag but I was stunned. They were incredible. Perfectly crispy and salty. I'm excited to go back and try more options from the menu. Welcome to our side of town, Red Perch! read more

The baked fish mahi mahi was ok. It was my fault because it is really a fried fish place, the rice was good, and the side salad was really good. It was not enough to bring the review up. read more

Oh my goodness. My husband had the beer battered Cod and it was delicious. I had the fish of the day - barramundi and it too was delicious. Fries were great. They have this crusty coating that was so good. The batter that the fish is cooked in is the best I've ever tasted. Fish was very fresh and flaky and it was not too greasy for being fried. The fresh made tartar sauce was so good. I wish I could have bought a jar of it. We will most definitely be back to try other menu items. The service was great. They were so helpful to us being out first time. It's a quaint little space with outdoor seating which we would have sat there if it wasn't so hot. Clean bathroom and I love the Australian themed wallpaper in there!! read more

Just arrived in Nashville and decided  on our first meal here. Great decision! The food was so good. We had cod fish and chips and a lager. Also not much of a wait for a Friday night.

This was a great lunch spot. They had gender neutral bathrooms that were clean. There was plenty of free parking out back. They also had WIFI, just ask the employee for the password. We spent some time remote working here after eating. They had bottles drinks that were $4. All of the food was delicious. I would definitely go here again on my next trip down to Nashville. read more

Super nice staff, cool ambience and amazing food! I had the ahi tuna bowl and the grapefruit cake.. 10/10 would recommend

Great fish sandwich and chill vibe. My boyfriend and I thought it was good value for the quality. The service is usually friendly!

Love this place! We ordered the calamari, cod and chips, and clam chowder. I literally don't have a bad thing to say about the food. It was absolutely delicious. Everything we ordered was a hit. I'm looking forward to trying new items next time I go since they have such a variety of options for both food and drink. I will say the seating is a bit limited and I imagine they can get pretty busy some days. Also keep in mind they are closed on Sunday and Monday. Go try this place now! read more

Delicious and comforting seafood dishes! Their cod and chips are standout. The fish had a crispy but light exterior and tender interior. The fries on the side were good as well. I recommend eating both with malt vinegar (they conveniently provide you with packets if you ask) to add some acidity and liven up the flavor profile. Also got the clam chowder, which was tasty, packed with clams and potatoes, and served with a hearty slice of sourdough. Their menu is unexpectedly diverse with its inclusion of more Asian-inspired items like poke and a shrimp banh mi, which I'm curious to try when I come back! read more

Unique family owned place. Tried the Tennessee catfish special. Delicious, although the ciabatta bread was a bit much and I ended up deconstructing my sandwich and eating the fish on its own. Wish the owners would talk more amongst each other, so we could all enjoy the cute Aussie accents. ;) read more

I pass this place going home every day from work and always wondered what it was. I looked it up on yelp and it had amazing reviews! I can see now why everyone is raving about it! I got the grilled catch of the day and it was cooked perfectly! The side salad that comes with it was heavenly. My friend got the fish and chips and clam chowder and loved it all! I will be back :) read more

I dropped in for happy hour and couldn't believe they offer fish and chips and a pint for $15! The fish was excellent, which is hard ti find in Nashville. The staff was friendly and the service was good as well. read more

First, it was difficult to find from Yelp directions. I would suggest putting a note that it's on the second floor above Radish. Second, there's no elevator! It's a long set of stairs in the back and only a bit shorter in the front. This is NOT a place for those with handicaps. I won't try it again. Third, atmosphere is cute. It's a little hole in the wall serving very fresh fish - unusual for Nashville. We had cod and the filet sandwich. Both nicely done with a crisp crust and flaky, tender inside. Nice! The fries were nicely done, I like them very crispy. Tartar sauce was nice. The anchovy appetizer was very disappointing and overpriced. Overall, a pleasant though not outstanding dinner at a reasonable price marred by accessibility issues. read more

Just yes! It was so good! We had the cod, burger, and lumpia. I cannot wait to go back! It just had the perfect balance - between location, price, quality of food, taste, presentation, service, vibe etc. I hope this place continues the quality and attention to detail. And I hope the community supports this business so that we can continue to have this amazing restaurant! read more

We stopped in for a lunch and loved it. We had the fish o' the day and lumpia, and we saw several other items we want to try in the future. A couple very minor things: 1. This place is small, and seating is tight. Go outside "meal hours", if you can. 2. A lot of fish/chip places have absorbent paper underneath to grab any extra oil. I would suggest that RP consider this. Their batter is light and tasty, but it was even better after the fish sat on a napkin for a few seconds. read more

Their fish is battered perfect. The fries that go with the fish and chips are fatter than the basic fries found elsewhere & superb texture. Salted just right. The manner in how the chefs gently lay down each battered cod into the fry basket is with care. We always sit at the serving bar with total view of all the special effects. And they recycle their glass bottles! read more

This place is ridiculously good. Fresh seafood and fish cooked so elegantly. Fish and chips are the staple, but they always have great specials. I myself stick with the specials which seem to be seasonal... but I could be wrong. They will have soft shell crab bahn mi, clam chowder, and a variety of fish like snapper or flounder. This is a must in Nashville. read more

This food was amazing. I highly recommend the chicken bbq tacos! The root beer was amazing too!! read more

Last minute idea on a Saturday night. It was Delicious food, great service, fast, we will be going back.

so, I expect my fish and chips to be greasy, but this took it to a level I've never seen before. they have managed to transform a potato into a sponge... what has science done? not really my thing but I'm sure someone loves it. breading was kind of dull and outside is very lightly salted. I'd eat here again but probably wouldn't get the potatoes read more

Perhaps it was the 5 star review that raised expectations, but this was really disappointing. Since I am from Australia, I was excited to go to a restaurant advertising Australian Fish & Chips. I was disappointed. The fish was more batter than fish and the chips were nothing like what one would be served in Australia. The staff were friendly and helpful, but service was slow. You order at the counter and they bring you your food - but such a long wait. As for ambiance, there isn't much. Small outdoor patio and a few inside tables. Given all the great reviews, perhaps ours was just an off night. Maybe Red Perch is worth another try. read more

Red Perch is one of our faves and we're so glad it's over here on the west side- I swear my husband could eat it every day! We love their cod and chips, clam chowder, and their Wednesday night paella. They also have great cocktails and we love the patio seating so our dog can join us! read more

I absolutely LOVE Red Perch! It's so nice to have a great food spot down the street from my office. The owners are extremely responsive on social media. I inquired about gluten free options and was told they have a dedicated fryer for their fries AND they can grill the fish instead of fry it. Later on, I found out they went out and bought gluten free soy sauce just so I could have the poke! Seriously, above and beyond customer service. read more

Great friendly service, clean restaurant, fresh fish and nice fries. I'm giving this a 5 star because my husband said this was the best fish and chips he had in his life. The tempura-style coating was wonderful, and the fries were great. We both were not a fan of the tartar sauce, but can see why others would like it. My only constructive criticism is that the batter was bland. I tore off a piece just to taste it without the fish, and it needed seasoning. Even though it was the "best", my husband agreed that a little seasoning would raise the dish to a higher level. I suppose if you like the tartar sauce, this is not a problem. Bottom line is that this place is definitely worth a try. Not everyone's palate is the same, but the quality and freshness is on point. read more

This is the kind of place that is small, quaint, and would have 1 Michelin star. You get unbelievably tasty food without the stuffiness of a pretentious dining experience. It's relaxed and easy-going. The lumpia reminds me of grandma, who just passed. It's something I get when I feel homesick. I love this place. If you haven't eaten anything from here, do not hesitate and go for it. Once you eat here you'll always want seconds. read more

Fantastic food, family-owned and the best Fish and Chips in town. I've traveled and worked in the UK and Australia and these people have it down! Good specials and good people. Check it out before they get famous and inaccessible. read more

It is an absolute blessing having the Red Perch family in West Nashville now. Our first time at the new location it was difficult to leave something off the order so we got one of everything. It was absolutely phenomenal and perfect to share tapas style with friends from the full fish all the way down to lumpia and sardines. Since the opening, having nights like wine down Wednesdays, special days like Lola's birthday, or whatever Cam might wake up wanting to make: There's a certain freshness every time you visit with the option to order all of the staples and take your tastebuds on a new adventure. If you're just visiting for the weekend or a long time local put it on your list for great food and service here in Nashville! read more

Excellent food and service. Top notch fish and chips and the cod dip is amazing. Happy hour is an awesome deal!

I saw this place had 5 stars, so we HAD to try it! 5 stars... Justified! The fish was perfectly seasoned and battered. When we went, it was happy hour, and I got a free beer. Bonus! We also got the chicken tacos. They had a uniquely tasty sauce, and the quantity was substantial. The staff is friendly, too! This place will become a legend! read more

Yes! It's as great as these reviews say! Got the Cod and chips today for the family. When do you get takeout that looks like the professional pictures that the owner uploads? Well this does and it tastes even better! Light, crispy, thick and flaky quality fish. The fries are amazing as well! Clearly the tangy tarter and cocktail sauces are house-made and delicious as well. The folks preparing and serving up this excellent fare were warm and welcoming also.
