    Absolutely incredible fish and chips, so glad to have found this hidden gem. Their fish is delicious, does not smell fishy, it's crispy, fresh, good batter, and they give you both the tartar sauce and the malt vinegar with it. The interior is good, not a pretentious spot, just a good delicious spot for fish and chips; and a pretty darn good clam chowder too. My husband ordered it to go for us , they were super friendly while taking the orders. Love this spot, delicious and fresh fish

    We dropped by during happy hour and tried their oysters, fish taco, chicken wings and fries, and fried fish. The oysters were 10/10, juicy, fresh, and plump meat. They were 1.75$ each. The fish taco was ginormous with grilled fish and two tortillas. The fried fish was nicely battered and tender. The chicken wings were solid -- nothing to write home about, just basic but a solid option if you're not into fish (or want fries, which is why we got them). The service is great, friendly staff!

    2 Piece Fish Tacos

    On a visit down to visit the in-laws in the South Bay, SIL suggested this place for a late lunch Saturday arriving around 2:35pm. Located in Stanley Square which consisted of several storefronts with a parking lot in the back. Across the street from the US Post Office. The four of us had a nice booth by the front entrance. Ordered off a two page laminated menu. The four of us each ordered seafood - * hubby had the three piece fish and chips. Huge fillets fried perfectly. And hot. * I had a cup of clam chowder and fish tacos. The soup was creamy but lacked clams. The soft tacos were just enough. * SIL had four deep fried oysters and prawns. One of her go to orders. * BIL had a green salad and rainbow trout. Everything looked fresh. * hubby & I ordered beer and BIL had hot tea. Service was friendly. It's a family owned business. Conveniently located near Hwy 280 entrance.

    2 piece Fish and Chips

    We don't eat a lot of deep fried fish and chips, but when we do (like tonight) The City Fish is our favorite. The location is small, but clean, the service is efficient; and the portions are BIG, moist and delicious.

    2 gigantic pieces of fried fish and coleslaw
    Helen L.

    Very nice servers, friendly and helpful. Generous portion. Wanted fish and chips, replaced chips with coleslaw (a bit too sweet). Fish was super fresh and not too greasy. Salmon was cooked to perfection. Shrimp Device with lots of fried tortillas. The clam and mussels portion appeared more than 2 dozens. Broth was so good with lemon, butter, and garlic. Plenty of parking front and back. Neighborhood spot. Choco flan was a bit thick.

    Combo shrimp and & Crab

    Yesterday I got the Combo Shrimp and Crab salad and some clam chowder and a Crab sandwich with some fries. That was a FEAST and enjoyed every single bite. The location is small/medium size with outdoor tables available. Easy to find off a busy Hwy 85 in Cupertino California. I decided to go order so I could come home and fill up my belly and mouth with some great seafood. There were two males and a female working there handling all of us hungry customers. They are bilingual spanish speaking individuals. I have also been to the Morgan Hill location. If you are looking for the authentic, fisherman wharf type of seafood. Give this place a try and guaranteed you will enjoy it.

    This is my 2nd year in a row to celebrate my birthday at City Fish. I really love their fried oysters so fresh so juicy. Their Clam chowder is good, too. I love

    Ciabatta Crab Sandwich sub with Sourdough.
    Jimmy P.

    The ciabata crab sando with Jalapeno Poppers is my favorite combo. I tried it with the sourdough and it was so good. Shoutout to the wonderful and friendly staff. Javi, Jesus, Tony, Chewy, Pinky, Polo! The chocoflan is a must order

    My first time and I probably ordered too much. Everything was good. The oysters Rockefeller is not as good as Tadich Grill's in SF. But for the price of the OR here which is only $20.50 for six pieces, it's really very good value and worth it. As I was leaving I saw a board outside on happy hour prices indicating a single fried fish was cheaper than what I had paid for. Other than that, everything was delicious and satisfactory. Looking forward to another meal here.

    Oysters Rockefeller

    You'll find parking near the rear of the restaurant. They have shared parking with neighboring business. When you walk in it's a small restaurant but they are producing some delicious food. I started with the crab cakes they tasted fresh and made to order. Then Moved on to the fish . They were large, filling, and had the normal toppings. The oysters Rockefeller wow so cheesy and delicious . I also got the fried platter with the shrimps scallops, fish and some French fries . All good battered perfectly amd fried to perfection. Wow all around good I even got a pasta to afterwards The service was attentive and the food came out in decent time. 2 young men were servicing the tables when I dinner in and they provided great service not only to me but to everyone in the establishment. Alot of great options I didn't get to try, I will surely return

    Fish & chips

    Review is only for their tempura style fish & chips. The batter was super crispy, even after the drive to bring it home 20 minutes later. I had known of their DTSJ location, but didn't know this location has been around for years as well! Very decent fish & chips (3 piece fish plus chips for 18 bucks which came out to 21 bucks total with tax). I was impressed that the it stayed crispy and did not get soggy (I left the container open). The chips (fries) were seasoned and mostly still crispy as well. There is street parking and a parking lot in the back as well. Even had 2 comfy looking tables and seats outside. Would love to come back and try other items and see if they're any good as well.

    Grilled fish, really liked how minimal the mayo was in the coleslaw
    Jay P.

    Have had this place bookmarked for years! We came to Anza flea market and finally had a chance to come for lunch. Overall I liked this location more than the Morgan Hill one. The main draw is the fish and chips and these are closer to American style than they are to UK. The fries are a nice medium cut and were great. Fish was slightly over fried but still tasted good. We got 3 pieces of fish for a family of 4 and while it was enough fish there weren't enough fries, next time we would get 2 orders. Sea bass: grilled with a paprika blend. Well cooked and easily flak d with a spoon we got them with a side of coleslaw and tomatoes with basil. Loved the coleslaw, even though it was sitting in a lot of liquid. A nice light hint of mayo and the cabbage tasted super fresh. Wife got the clam chowder, heavy handed on the cream and would pass in it next time.

    City fish is amazing for seafood lovers. Anytime I crave seafood this is my go to for fresh stuff. I love their food, I love how quick their service is and the staff is very attentive to you and explains the specials of the day very well. The atmosphere is very simple, diner style and Hu good for 4 people in a group. I am sure the can re-arrange tables to make room for larger groups. The clam chowder is yum, I even love their fresh sea bass and my kid enjoys the fish and chips. The crab cakes are great too. I keep cooking back here and if anyone loves seafood this is the place to be.

    Fo you offer gluten-free fish and chips?

    Does the clam chowder have bacon or any other meat in it?

    No bacon, no pieces of obviously non-clam meat. Don't know if there was chicken broth but it didn't taste like it, and clam broth would be more normal.

    How far out do you deliver to? I'm in Mountain View.

    Don't believe they deliver, best bet is to use a food delivery app

    Does the batter have dairy (cows milk) in it? How about the fries , are they battered also and with dairy? (Dairy allergy here)... thanks!

    I don't know but the batter is very light - like a tempura batter. It's really good. Calling… 

    Is it cod or something else for the fish and chip?

    It is Cod and it is a big piece. Enjoy!

    We have always driven by this place and were curious about the banh mi and food…read more It is clean with a large interior and lots of parking. We went around 5pm on a Thursday and we were the only one in the restaurant. We thought it was closed initially. There are a lot of tables, but we figured we were just early for dinner. But, by the time we finished our meal, there was only 2 other tables that came. We ordered: - Special Vermicelli with Lemongrass-Marinated Tofu: This was okay and the portion size was big. The description said "eggrolls" but it only came with 1 eggroll. The eggroll also was kind of small. Make sure you ask for extra fish sauce otherwise the noodles will be dry. - Lemongrass Beef Banh Mi: the portion size was small for the price and was served on a basket. The bread was good, but we wouldn't get this again. Also, we were wondering how sanitary the basket that it was served on was (seems hard to clean, etc.) We would have felt better if the basket had some sort of disposable liner or plate. When you eat, the food may fall back into the basket, etc. They have fruit/cucumber water. We were the only table there for awhile and no one checked in in us. I had to walk up to the front to ask for extra fish sauce. Overall, this was a miss for us. Sorry Pho Banh Mi!
