Mitch's was closed apparently due to some grease fire. SO wanted fish / shrimp n chips. First day in town so just came here. Parking is a bit off as we parked on the street near some residential area. Place is on the corner. Open atmosphere. Orders are done at the entrance and it's seat yourself. Friendly staff. Clam Chowder - Rich and thick. One day hopefully I am this rich n thick. Not a whole lot of clam or potatoes however. Very tasty though. Yellowtail grilled w lemon garlic butter sauce - Well the lemon butter sauce wasn't really present on the fish. However the yellowtail grill and flavor was bomb. The fish wasnt dry and the flavor was fresh and delicious. The wild rice was meh. Fluffy but lacked any flavor. Even the grain flavor. Definitely felt healthy. Onion rings are perfectly cooked and delicious crisp and flavor. Shrimp and Chips - Fries were good. Lots of chips. Shrimp while huge and not overcooked the batter was amazing. Some of the shrimps weren't fully cooked all the way so the batter on the inside part was mush. This was on about 2-3 shrimps out of 8-10. Clam chowder is good and make sure they cook your shrimp. Grilled yellowtail was delicious.

Great vibe for a local joint. Menu is very customizable and where else can one substitute fries for salad or rice bowl lol? Dog friendly patio with an awesome selection of local beers on draft. It's mostly self service but they are still very attentive in turning over tables

So happy I found this place! We were in the mood for fish tacos and this spot did not disappoint. It was pretty busy for a Saturday afternoon, but we were able to get a table. Street parking was pretty easy in this area. Dogs are allowed on the patio. We ordered a mahi mahi and red snapper fish taco. One with fish shop seasoning and the other with chipotle. It comes with slaw, cheese, and pico on top. I wasn't a huge fan of the Mexican shredded cheese, but it wasn't a dealbreaker. We also got the red snapper plate with garlic butter, onion rings, and macaroni salad. The onion rings are huge! And their batter is different than most onion rings. It's airy and when you bite into it, there's that nice crunch. Their batter is also very flavorful! Macaroni salad was a perfect pair with the fish. Even though it felt like a lot of food, it didn't weigh us down all day and give us a good coma. Pretty light and satisfying! Will come back.

I've been several Fish Shop locations first time at this one. You order before sitting down. They will provide a number and the food will be delivered to your table. I decided to have fish and chips plus a small bowl of clam chowder. Both were delicious! They always have fresh seafood here. I appreciated the batter to fish ratio was perfect. The clam chowder was really good. Especially on a cool overcast day like we had. There is indoor and outdoor seating. We sat outside to enjoy the weather. Staff is nice and restaurant is clean. Definitely would come back again.

Came here for $1.25 oyster night on Thursday! Really solid and fresh oysters. The ladies behind the counter were really nice and answered questions we had about the menu. You walk in, order at the counter and they give you a number to take with you to your table. They bring you your order and that's it. A pretty straightforward establishment! Parking is around the corner and we had no issues finding any spots. We've come once before and had their fish and chips, fish tacos and their shrimp plates. I recommend the fish and chips

Easy parking, order at the counter and pick a seat, the staff will bring your food to you. Open air seating, which is nice option to have in the summer. The crabcake I ordered was good, and the horseradish remoulade was delicious. Not a big fan of it coming out on a few pieces of meh lettuce however. The miss for me was the onion rings, they were huge and in an almost hush puppy batter that was really thick in some spots and nicely crisp in others, but oily. Fish stew was delicious.

Great place to catch a game and eat solid seafood. Things you should know: I. PARKING There's a small, free lot. Easy. II. SERVICE You simply order and pay at the register. They give you a number and bring out your food. The beverages are self-serve. III. QUALITY The tacos taste great! The ceviche? Not-so-good. The avocado wasn't fresh and impossible to cut through. IV. CAPACITY Fair amount of seating for a Sunday evening.
