Lone food truck at the edge of a spartan gas station parking lot. But what it lacks in ambience, it makes up for with a great menu and awesome late-night hours. If you want solid fish tacos after 10:00pm, this place has got it. Less greasy than the taqueria down the street. Friendly and attentive service at the truck. Took about twelve minutes to fill the order. We will be back. read more

I'd give this place a 3.5. I ordered from doordash, food arrived hot and quickly. Standout for me was the fried shrimp, because it was crispy and perfectly cooked. The fried fish and mozzarella sticks were tasty. The calamari was very soft, but in a odd way. The fries could have been more evenly seasoned but overall I'd eat here again. Note that the batter is not beer batter if that's what you were looking for. P.s. the Ranch is atrocious. read more

Over the weekend, I was craving some fried fish for an early lunch recently and stumbled upon this spot. I ordered the mixed seafood platter along with a side of onion rings and fried zucchini sticks to share. I would give the seafood platter a 5/5. Everything was fried nicely and the fish really hit the spot for me. The fried calamari were also pretty unique and had a great texture. The real standout for me though was the onion rings. They were lightly battered, perfectly crispy, and honestly some of the best onion rings I've had in a while. I'd definitely come back just for those alone. Unfortunately, the fried zucchini sticks were just not very good. Not only were they very mushy on the inside, they also carried a strange aftertaste that I didn't enjoy at all. Service-wise, the owner was very friendly and welcoming, and the food came out pretty quickly even though we were some of the first customers of the day. The ambiance is very casual since it's a food truck setup, but the fruit stand right next to it gives the place a nice local charm and makes it a pleasant spot for a quick lunch. read more

Probably one of the best fish and chips in the peninsula in my opinion. Each of the fish are lightly battered with minimal seasoning. If you order the fries prepare to get a massive amount. read more

We had an unfortunate experience at this spot, ordered for pickup through Yelp due to seeing good reviews, and it was the smelliest fish we have ever purchased from a restaurant. It smelled awful, we had to throw both orders away, and that was unacceptable and unfortunate. We had gotten fish tacos and fish and chips, based on the cost you would think it would be tasty and fresh but no it wasn't :( couldn't stand the awful smell so we had to toss it. read more

This place is great! I got the Angel's Special and the food portion was so big that it was seeping out the sides! It comes with fried fish filets, calamari, fried shrimp and fries, topped off with a humungous baja taco! Everything was fried to perfection and wasn't overly greasy either! The coleslaw side is a refreshing to have in between bites. Highly recommend! read more

Coming out of a sports tournament in Redwood City late at night and starving, the Blue Fish Kitchen was the perfect solution as we wanted a high-quality meal that also included seafood. Located in a gas station parking area, the bright yellow food truck was easy to find, and there were a good number of menu options along with a statement that the owner partners with local fishermen to ensure tasty seafood -- something we were eager to test. The owner was really nice and patient as we tried to decide how many things to try. Paying with a credit card was helpful as a lot of other places in the area mainly push for cash only. We sipped on fresh lemonade (with an excellent balance of tang and sweet) as we waited for our freshly cooked platters of grilled fish tacos and mixed fried seafood. There is also a covered seated area with a few plastic tables and chairs which was really convenient. The grilled fish tacos were wonderful, with a generous, beautifully cooked filet in each of the 3 tacos and topped with pico de gallo and plenty of fresh herbs, along with some chips, excellent salsa and some lemon wedges. The mixed seafood platter included a plentiful portion of fried fish, plump shrimp, and calamari rings--everything's was nicely fried and seasoned well, and went great with the house made tartar sauce as well as cocktail sauce. It came with French fries (which were on the softer side) and crispy, creamy coleslaw. Definitely coming back to the Blue Fish Kitchen! read more

Found this hidden gem, wasn't real sure what to expect but the fish tacos were exceptional. The flavors were great, the fresh fish was awesome and the fact it was grilled and not fried, made it even better. As a chef it takes a lot to impress me and this one hit on all notes. Keep up the great work. read more

Hands down the best grilled fish tacos on the peninsula. Fresh ingredients, generous portions--you get three large tacos that are both satisfying and light enough to feel like a healthy choice. The truck is parked along the marina in Redwood City, which makes the pickup spot even better. It's made to order, so if you walk up to the truck expect about 10 minutes. I usually order online and pick up, which makes it super easy. Fast, tasty, and consistent. This has become one of my go‑to staples for a casual meal that's healthy, flavorful, and always worth it. I kinda want some right now! read more

I've had this food truck bookmarked for years! So glad that I finally got around to trying it. Parking in the Redwood City Marina area on a weekend was plentiful and the ambience really enhanced our experience: warm peninsula weather coupled with a great bay/water/pier view accompanied our meal perfectly! There wasn't a line and the food prep took about 10 minutes. Plenty of dockside public seating to be found and take in the views while we waited. We ordered the Mix Fried Platter and were pleasantly surprised by how much food was stacked in the box! Everything seemed to have been made fresh to order. By far, the winner of the platter had to be the shrimp. Lightly battered and decently sized/plump. The calamari was also pretty good as well! Wouldn't hesitate to come back if I'm in the area. read more

Heard so much about this place and would always miss the truck. Finally found it on Middlefield rd at the am pm in Redwood City on a weekday. The gentleman was very friendly and nice. Got the fish n chips and some churros since everyone has been raving about it. Fish n chips was ok for me. It lacked seasoning and wasn't flavorful. The fries on the other hand were really good and seasoned great. The churros were good, but I'm not a fan of cream filling especially in churros so that's the only thing I didn't like about the churros. The food wasn't memorable, but service was great. read more

If you're looking to eat some delicious fried seafood with a beautiful view of the bay, definitely check this spot out. It's a little out of the way unless you're working in the area or sailing your boat, but it's worth it. We came on a Sunday and spotted the yellow food truck along the water in parking lot. We ordered the mixed fried platter for $22, which came with 3 pc fried shrimp, calamari, and 2 of pc fried fish, french fries, coleslaw, and lots of sauces (ketchup, cocktail sauce, sriracha mayo). The food came out within 5-10 minutes and the service was friendly. Some of the seafood tasted more freshly fried than others. However, the shrimp was my favorite... lightly battered and piping hot. The fish was good, but not as fresh and flaky as I've had at other places. There are plenty of outdoor picnic tables and spots to eat. It was the perfect sunny day to sit, relax, and enjoy the view of the beautiful bay. It was the most relaxed I've felt in a while! read more

4.5/5 so rounded up to 5. Visited this spot during PortFest. Very unassuming truck. There was a short line but service was super fast. We split a shrimp quesadilla (huge) and got a watermelon and pineapple agua Fresca. Shrimp quesadilla 5/5 The shrimp was perfectly seasoned and tasted so delicious with the melted cheese and green salsa. Wish there was slightly more shrimp though. I'll be back for another for sure as it was just very tasty! Agua frescas 4/5 These were tasty but $7 each made them pretty pricey. There's also no ice included so it doesn't taste as good and refreshing as it could be. Overall, I wanna try more things as their portions are huge and good is tasty!! read more

calamari and fries were amazing, generous serving, crispy outside and juicy inside calamari. Cole slaw was super tasty, flavorful enough yet light. Came with all of the sauces and lemon by default. Loved the $4 churro as well, fresh and piping hot vanilla sauce inside so be careful! read more

God I shouldn't but I did - ordered from here and each bite was DIVINE. Ofc, I got their fish and chips. Yum ! Fish was flaky and crunchy on the outside but sooo thick and full of flavor on the inside. The fries were crunchier than I thought they would be for basic thick fries. It could use more salt and seasonings though - garlic, parsley and some herbs would really take it to the next level. Genuinely fried seafood heaven. I'll come back when I'm not on my cut anymore haha read more

About 4.5 stars. This place is the port of Redwood City Marina on Seaport Court off Seaport Boulevard. The trailer front faces the water; so when you get to the parking lot all you'll see is the bright yellow backside of the truck. There's no signage on the back side btw. My bestie stopped in for the fish & shrimp plate. Came with a tartar, ketchup, cocktail, some kinda mayo sauce, and another sauce with a slight kick but it was not hot though. Portion's BIIIIG easily split between two or for a really hungie person. Shrimp's slightly sweet, fish is (I think) cod, both with light breading. Calamari's the same no thick, heavy coating. Fries are just okay, nothing special he said. Coleslaw's nice, not soggy froggy or drowned in mayo. About $25 ishhhh with tax, I forget tho. The service was hella quick, no line when we went. There are benches and tables nearby with a view of the water if you want to hang out. We totally forgot to ask about malt vinegar gosh dang it, i would've been nice with the fish.Overall, light, pleasant, and I'd go back to try more stuff. read more

The order was processed quickly--about 10 minutes from payment to pickup--which was great. However, when we got home and my wife opened the plate, it was overflowing with fries. I would estimate about 80% fries and only a small portion of calamari, shrimp, and fish. The fish was also heavily breaded, cut in half, with very little actual meat inside, which was disappointing considering the price. My wife also mentioned that the fries were cold and didn't seem fresh. Overall, it was a bit disappointing for what we paid. That said, we're willing to give them another try in the future and hope the quality improves. read more

As I was placing my order I got a glimpse of the employees hands. His fingernails were black with dirt underneath, he had open sores on his fingers and dried crusted batter all over them. I watched him prepare my meal without washing his hands or wearing gloves, and he stuck his thumb directly into the batter. I threw the whole meal directly into the trash. read more

Love their food! I first stumbled upon their original location at the docks in Redwood City, but as this new location opened up, it was much more convenient for me as they are open late night and I can come after work. Yesterday I met Angel. He's the manager there. He is extremely friendly and has great customer service. The food is made to order so it's guaranteed fresh. I ordered my normal and absolute favorite, the fish tacos. It comes with 3 tacos (non-breaded) and a ton of pico, cilantro, cabbage, and their fish tacos tartar sauce. It also comes with a side of chips for that extra textured bite and lemons for a little more flavor. I personally love the original tacos, but they also have a spicy salsa that they created specifically for the tacos. Beware, if you cannot handle spice, either forego it or put it on the side. I love spice, but asked for it on the side and I actually dipped my chips in it. It was delicious. My husband really loves their fish and chips. Saw Angel battering them up and dropping them in the fryer for a crispy crunch. The fries were a thicker cut which are really nice so you're not getting too much of the overfried flavor. It also came with a slaw, lemons, a white tartar sauce and another red sauce (I'm guessing a cocktail sauce?). Another one of my go to bites are the zucchini sticks. They are breaded and super crunchy, holding their shape and texture. They actually stay crunchy despite zucchini being known as a more "wet" veggie. Sometimes I even just stop by the truck for the zucchini sticks alone. Haha. And lastly, Angel had said they just created a new Aqua Fresca, Jamaica juice which is also known as hibiscus juice. It was so good, I downed half on the way home. It was ice cold and not too sweet. I would definitely get it again. They are on DoorDash, uber eats and grub hub too. Overall... customer service, food quality and taste, and convenience, I rate it a 5. read more

Got my first Friday of Lent fish dinner from Blue Fish last night. IT WAS EXCELLENT. Next time I'll get Andy's platter with the onion rings which were AWESOME they also had a very nice cloe slaw with the dressing separate so it was crunchy and then finish it off with a churro chaser. You need to give it a try if you loved fried fish. read more

Good food and door no knock delivery with a nice note on bag. It was delivered in the time stated.

People, I can't begin to tell you how impressed I was by the plate I received from Blue Fish Kitchen, generous portions, all the condiments, and fresh lemon slices, without asking.

We got the shrimp quesadilla and a churro this past Saturday, while enjoying live 80's music at Rock the Dock in Redwood City. This is the only food truck I've ever seen at this event, so I am glad that their dishes and desserts are freshly made and tasty, even if a bit pricey. Both of our items were quite satisfying. They never seem to have a long line or wait, and service is standard, though the worker this past weekend was a little stingy with the plastic utensils. After we started eating, I came back to the truck and asked for a fork, he said it was at the bottom of the plastic bag for my order. I checked twice in the bag, inside the food container, and around our seating area to see if we dropped it or perhaps it flew away. Came back and he still didn't give me a fork, so yeah had to just use my hands for the sides and stuff. Strange that they can't spare one plastic fork, especially with the high prices they charge here and the fact that I asked politely. But the food's pretty good regardless, so I still gave them 3 stars. read more

Came in today to get the same plate a coworker of mine got just last night. The mixed trio plate. I just didn't want calamari, just shrimp & fish I was told the boss said the plates have to stay the same because of inventory. I would've saved you inventory. Beyond disappointed!!!! All you had to do was not give me calamari. I accidentally ate calamari one time nope never yuck! lol. Even if you wanted to charge extra for substitutions that's fine, I make over 100k a year I'm not trippin. Location is at a knock off gas station. Really wanted to give this place a try, it's okay I will drive to East Palo Alto to Jonathan's fish and chips, they would NEVER & the taste never fails. They have plenty of options & you get to pic your fish. Sayonara. Picture of Jonathan's fish & chips oh & I got malt vinegar free of charge read more

OK ,but fillets are thicker than I like ,more geared toward a fish taco than fish and chips. Fries are nice. Burgers are large and dried out ,so skip them. Limited hours and days. (Thursday ( 11 AM to 2 PM) I would call to verify hours. read more

It was a Wednesday and I initially was craving for zucchini fries , searched Yelp and this restaurant food truck showed up on my list. I ended up ordering the fish sandwich with zucchini fries and I am so glad I did. WOW, I was taken back by the enormous amount of food they give. It's two slices of delicious toasted sourdough bread with lettuce and tomato , enough to be a mini salad, and two oversized fish battered sticks. I started off with the battered fish, and since the portions are huge I struggled to eat it as a sandwich so I just was deconstructing the sandwich as I ate. The batter is amazing and crispy, fish is flaky and fresh, the sauce spread in the sandwich is really good, the kicker is the tarter sauce with the yummy zucchini fries and there was a generous amount of zucchini fries. I'm gonna say this again the tartar sauce is HELLA good. The portions IMO is enough to feed three people. I gave up 1/3 of the food and just as I thought it was soo much food I lifted the bread slice , low and behold there was a huge pile of coleslaw hiding beneath all this giant sandwich. LOL. I am soo impressed worth beyond the $19, did not disappoint ! it was so damn good!! Both chefs were very kind too with great service and clean all around. Location is next to the port and it was a nice a sunny day! FTW. read more

Amazing seafood!!! Guys gets down and polite. Mixed plate was delicious thanks bub. I'd come back again. Give the menu a try.

Delicious tacos by a cute truck. We enjoyed the fresh grilled fish and how the sauce combines all the favors. Tortilla chips also taste warm and homey. I would love to see more grilled items on the menu, maybe a la carte or a plate? The serving appears stingy however for a $17 high price point, and I don't feel motivated to go back for this pricing, maybe unless a happy hour is set up. I was also interested in the zucchini sticks, but $12 sounds absurd. Single layer of tortillas didn't hold the content well. Double layers will make for more solid tacos and better presentation. Would also be great to have more chips and salsa on the side. read more

Love this fish truck. Fish tacos are fresh and flavorful. Also appreciate the clam chowder , thick New England style.

Dropped by The Blue Fish Kitchen this past weekend to get a bite to eat while my fiancé fished. There are so many goodies on this menu that it's hard to decide which ones to get! I ended up getting the clam chowder and the mixed fried platter. The clam chowder is piping hot which I absolutely appreciated! The texture is nice and thick and it's full of clams and potatoes. We both really enjoyed dipping the bread and fries in the chowder. The fried mix plate was good as well. It comes with fried calamari, fried fish, fried shrimp, and fries. While the proteins themselves were good, the batter was a bit thin so if you dipped it into the sauces they provide, the batter would come off. I also wish it was a bit crispier so you could get a nice crunch when you bit into it. My favorite was the fried shrimp and calamari though! Even though the batter came off, the shrimp and calamari were cooked well and not over done. Overall, i'll definitely be back again if we come back to the area to fish. The clam chowder hits the spot on a cloudy day! read more

Really wanted fish and chips and this place has such complimentary reviews - had to give it a try. Now. I have no idea why. Service was nice. After i finally found the place. And f you aren't familiar you can just circle the parking lot trying to find a sign. No signs at all to help. I saw a big yellow trailer on a regular truck. Guessed it might be it. It was. So weird no signage facing the parking lot. Order came out super quick. Nice. Huge portion. Tried the fish with their bizarre and definitely not classic tartar sauce. Ew. Tried the fish with malt vinegar. That helped. Still not great. Tried squeezing lemon all over it. A little better. It's not inexpensive so I kept trying. Tried a French fry dry. Ew. Tried one with a lot of ketchup. Better. Tried the Cole slaw. Boring. Basically. They must need to change their oil. The sweet unctuous smell you catch when you walk up is all you can taste in the fish and chips. The nice light fish is overwhelmed by the sweet sort of smell and taste of the breading. That said. The fish really was well cooked, moist and flaky. I threw almost everything away and came home to find something for lunch. I can still smell the fish and chips. Ew read more
