The City Fish - Ciabatta Crab Sandwich sub with Sourdough. - Sandwiches Near Me - Cupertino, California

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! read more

The fish pieces are huge and a single person would be totally full from a 2 piece fish and chips. The fish and chips were well fried and were still crispy even though I ordered my food to-go. They were generous with the tarter sauce and vinegar, which I appreciated, but I personally didn't love the taste of the tarter sauce. It had maybe carrots or something in it and I wish it were more tangy. It gets the job done but I might make my own next time. I also got a cup of clam chowder. It was tasty but being from SF I've had much better chowder elsewhere. I would skip this next time. The stand out here was the service I got from Javi. He took my phone order and was polite and courteous without "doing too much." He was the one to also ring me up and hand me my order and he was, again, chill but also super nice. He did a great job. It would be unfair to not share the low point of my experience, even though I hate putting people on blast. While I was picking up my order, there were two female employees standing behind Javi behind the register. One of the ladies was braiding the other ones hair. In food service it's really important not to touch your hair - you should be ready to work before you arrive, or head to the bathroom to take care of any grooming. In the moment I just tried to shrug it off but then the lady braiding the hair sprayed some kind of hair product to finish things off, and I later realized my food was sitting on the counter right next to them. It really disturbed me how they didn't see their behavior as inappropriate and it didn't bother them at all that I was being rung up while they were doing this. I'm a little torn about whether or not I would return. Again, the service from Javi was great and the fish and chips were definitely good - no complaints there. However I didn't love everything I got with my meal and I'm not sure how seriously they take cleanliness given the employees doing their hair in the front. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

I frequent this place multiple times a year, whenever I crave for American style seafoods. When I picked up a to-go order a couple of weeks ago, I noticed a patron having a bowl of Cioppino, and I have very little resistance to that. So a group of us came for a lunch time feast: my Cioppino (with pasta), a lobster roll, a clam bucket, and a combo oyster-prawn-fish. Boy were we happily satisfied afterward. Instead of crab pieces (with shell), they dump a lump of crab meat on top of the Cioppino bowl. Easier to eat but less authentic. Also, there were broken shells and one unopened mussel. This means the cook did not pay enough attention to details. Guess this is not haute cuisine. Again, please upgrade your beverage list. Also, try a less pungent cleaner solution please. read more

I love this place. Best fish n chips around, better than some fancy coastal restaurants! Prices are very fair, in fact a bargain. I've eaten here 4 times now and have always been fully satisfied with the service, quality and quantity of food Not a fancy place, dress casual and just enjoy the food. read more

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 read more

We came here for lunch after a hike and enjoyed the dining experience. If sea animal meat is not considered real meat, then this is a great spot for Lenten Friday, which partially explained why it was so busy. This was my second visit just like my previous one replenishing from a hike except i got company this time. My scallop and fish w/fries was excellent. The batter was light, meat fresh and ample. The crunchy biting effect was satisfying. The fries however was not the best I've had. The solid starchiness inside might prove they used frozen potatoes. Tasted Seabass in my son's plate, it was amazing! The delicate fish fillet was seasoned to perfection accompanied by creamy mashed potato and fresh, generous salad. Staff were friendly and attentive. Our server kept refilling soda drink for us. Interior decor was sea themed and retro. Vibe was vivacious. Will try their happy hour next time. read more

In a restaurant clearly full of local regulars I felt right at home. The service was excellent, the two gentlemen running the front of the house could not have been nicer. I wanted to try the chowder and something else from the non fried side, and the waiter recommended the lobster roll. It was packed, loaded, creamy and delicious. I enjoyed the coleslaw as well. But both were second best to the service! I couldn't even finish the lobster roll it was so huge and when I accidentally left it on the table in the to-go container my man tracked me down outside in an instant to catch me. Nice bunch of folks running this place. You can tell there are a lot of people who have been coming in here for a long time, which made my random dart throw at a restaurant today more enjoyable. Thanks for the hospitality and good bites! 6 stars. read more

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. read more

The City Fish - Fish & chips - Sandwiches Near Me - Cupertino, California

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. read more

The City Fish in Cupertino is my first visit! I had been craving for some fried fish, but I opted to balance out my meal--just a little bit. For starters, I ordered the Clam Strips (w/Fries). Next, I ordered the Ciabatta Crab Sandwich (includes Fries as well). I even added an a la carte piece of their fried fish. I couldn't really complain about my straightforward appetizer. The Clam and Fries were nice 'n' hot. The appetizer was exactly how I imagined it would be. The City Fish tarter and cocktail sauces offered some "help". This dish somewhat, prepped my palate. Solid 3 stars. I ordered the Ciabatta Crab from the menu because I was also craving something "luscious" that would pair well with my fried foods. This sandwich had lettuce, tomato, avocado, mayo and bacon. The described ingredients were definitely in my sandwich, but it needed something more to tie it together. It's not a bad sandwich, and, so I rate it a solid 3 stars. Lastly, I received my a la carte piece of Fried Fish. City Fish claims to use Alaskan Pollock. For $5.45, City Fish gives you a large, impressive piece of fried fish! On a good note there were no signs of heavy oil or evidence of uneven batter coating my piece. My fish even had that nice "curved" treatment :) Though City Fish fried the fish to perfection, there was nothing boastful about the seasoning or the flesh of this Pollock. While this fish looked impressive, it tasted just "simple". The fried fish isn't "bad" for its value, but I could only rate this a solid 3 stars. Two different staff members served me the bill and provided the check and the doggie bag stuff. Both servers were solid workers. There is some outdoor seating for up to 4 people. It appeared that the place accommodates a good 22-25 customers on the inside. It was 11:15 AM on a weekday and natural lighting was sufficient. There were no types of unnecessary extra features or embellishment inside. Overall, a solid fish place. read more

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. read more

Low key restaurant with a nice home-y feeling. Seemed like there were a lot of "regulars", and I can see why! The waiter and staff were kind and chill. The food was fried perfectly, and, for the price, there are generous portions. The scallop, shrimp, and fish combo was awesome since there was a variety of proteins. I will say, the only thing I wish was that there was more seasoning? Definitely needed tartar, cocktail, ranch, and ketchup. The crab sandwich had lots of crab and was good on a hot day. I'll definitely be coming back to try everything else. read more

I really enjoyed my crab sandwich here! Usually I am a little wary of cold ciabatta sandwiches because the bread can be thick and chewy, but this bread was great and not too thick for the sandwich. The crab meat tasted fresh and paired well with the other toppings. Our group of 4 ordered a variety of other food too, including calamari (which was delicious and perfectly crispy), and a combo platter with fish, garlic fries, scallops, and shrimp (pictured). Two people of the group also tried the lobster roll, which had a pretty good amount of lobster, but my boyfriend said the roll was just okay overall. My sandwich and fries plate was quite filling and I would probably order it again in the future. Interior is a little small and the tables are placed pretty close together. Service was friendly and pretty attentive. read more

Wanted to try this place out and came on a Wednesday evening. Wasn't busy at all and you seat yourself. The staff here is very friendly and they had the game on. Based on the reviews I should ordered the fish n chips but instead I got the steak with prawns & fish tacos. My daughter got the Cesar salad which she enjoyed and my son loved the city burger. For me my steak with prawns were ok. The prawns were seasoned very well and were really good. The mashed potatoes & veggies were seasoned really well. The steak was disappointing for me. It was ok. The fish tacos weren't too bad, but the sauce on it was a bit over powering. Will have to try their fish n chips next go round if I'm in the area. read more

Can't believe I've lived here all my life and haven't come to The City Fish! Came for dinner on Monday with my partner and got seated immediately. Noticed right away a lot of regulars (mostly senior citizens) chatting with the servers. Very friendly and welcoming staff. We ordered the chowder and fish combo with fish tacos. Healthy portions and very delicious food! First spoonful of chowder had lots of clams in it (most places skimp on this)! Fish was nice and crispy, but not overdone. Would come back again! read more

First off, the service here is excellent! 5/5 stars for service. Servers were polite and friendly throughout our meal. They are located near De Anza College. There is a parking lot in the back of the restaurant which is where we parked. Upon entering, we were told that we could choose anywhere to sit so we sat at one of their booths. The interior is clean and vibes were nice. We got hot teas, a clam chowder, an order of fish tacos, a crab sandwich, and a lobster roll. Hot tea ($3.64/order) (4/5 stars): Each order of hot tea comes with a basket of a variety of typical tea bags and sugar, a packet of honey and a piece of lemon along with a cup of hot water. Clam chowder (quart size) ($18.72) (4.5/5 stars): The clam chowder comes with bags of oyster crackers. The flavors were there and delicious, but it would have been even better if it was less thick. Fish tacos (2) ($12.48) (4/5 stars): Similar to the clam chowder, the flavors were there, but for some reason the fish was dry. Crab sandwich (comes with fries) ($18.72) (4/5 stars): They are not shy on giving a good amount of crab meat which is much appreciated. This sanwhich was a little bland and could add a bit more flavor, but portion size was fantastic. The fries were basic fries and a good addition to the sandwich. Lobster roll (comes with 2 sides of your choice) ($29.64) (5/5 stars): This was our favorite dish! Like the crab sandwich, they are not shy on giving a good amount of lobster in their roll which is highly appreciated. The taste was more flavorful than the crab sandwich and we enjoyed the two sides we chose which were coleslaw and basil tomatoes. I'd recommend this dish! Overall, 4.25/5 stars for today's experience. Prices were also pretty fair, so I can see why during lunch time, most seats were filled. read more

I haven't been here in years, but City Fish remains a popular restaurant serving fresh fish. My mom really wanted their lobster roll so we came for lunch. Parking was easy to find in the lot behind their restaurant. We arrived around 11:30 and were promptly seated. Service was friendly and fast. I enjoyed my halibut with salad and veggies. My fish was cooked perfectly and well seasoned. My dad enjoyed his fish and chips. By the time we left, the restaurant was full. read more

City Fish provides large portions of fresh seafood for fantastic value in South Bay and is genuinely a great option if you're craving fish n chips. I went for dinner around 7PM on a weekday and there were plenty of tables. Plus, there's a shared parking lot behind the building, which makes it swinging by super convenient. Crab Sandwich (4.25/5): They were extremely generous with the amount of crab and I got a towering sandwich. I appreciated that the sandwich wasn't over dressed and the natural sweetness of the crab came through. The meal was so big I ended up bringing the other half the sandwich home and it was still delicious the day after. Fried Oyster (3.75/5): I appreciate that you can order some fried items a la carte and the huge oysters came out piping hot. Batter was nice and crispy, but I think the type of oyster is just not my favorite. Not a fault of the restaurant, but I prefer sweeter options. Fish & Chips (4.5/5): Poached a piece off my friend's plate and the fish was perfectly fried and had fantastic texture. Fries are standard as they come, but nice and crispy! Overall, this place executes well and with the portion sizes, there's truly nothing to complain about. read more

You know you've made a good choice when you go to a restaurant and there are plenty of regulars and locals eating there. The City Fish is a casual, cozy place with a homely feel. Every time I eat here, I feel like I am eating at a beach shack and can go walk to the beach when I am done. On a recent visit, we had the Crab Cake sandwich, the Fish Tacos, and the Salmon Teriyaki bowl. Everything was fresh and tasty. And the portions are very generous so please keep that in mind so you don't over-order. The tacos were in the appetizer section for crying out loud, and even with just two tacos, they were more filling than a plate of tacos in most places! The service was quick and friendly. Will definitely be back to try more! read more

Best place to dine on Lenten Fridays (any day really if you are a seafood lover). Clam chowder is on point! The barramundi sea bass is a very generous portion, and grilled to perfection. It literally melts in your mouth. That entree and two sides (salad, fries, rice or mashed potatoes) all for $31. You honestly can't beat that price. The fish and chips are awesome here too and a very popular dish. Though this spot is known for seafood, don't sleep on their burger! It's seasoned perfectly and paired with bacon! Hello cholesterol! Beers and wines available - nothing on draft though. Super friendly, efficient service. They're open 7 days/ week with happy hour specials! Need to try their oysters, cioppino, crab sandwich - if I could only stop ordering my usual sea bass! Hahah! This is a no frills comfy cozy restaurant. Love that it's super family friendly as well. It tends to get crowded so bring your patience. Cheers! read more

9/10. What you need to know: We came in on a Saturday around 2 and were seated immediately. The menu is expansive with it's offering and if you like fish(or don't and want fried chicken), they got you covered. What we got: - Calamari appetizer. Breading was light and matched the sweet and sour sauce it's served it. Refreshing. -Clam chowder and fish combo. 3 piece fish plate and scallops and one piece plate with fries. The fish was MASSIVE, fried perfectly and had plenty of sauce options(tartar, malt vinegar, hot sauce and cocktail sauce). My only piece of feedback is the fries, not great but not bad. Either way we ate it all. Will certainly be back to try the rest of the menu. Special mention to the guy serving us. He remembered no ice in the water and refilled drinks without asking. He also knew the other tables orders by memory(locals), read more
