    Fish n chips
    Sergio Z.

    California Fish Grill is one of our favorite place for fresh fish and family-friendly restaurant. We have going to the California Fish Grill couple of years but we enjoy the fresh fish and other sea food. We came in to get dinner but it was hard what to order but my wife tells me let's get the fish n chips her favorite meal. Yes we did we ordered the fish n chips and a side of coconut shrimp,we waiting for they call my name. Everything is made to order and everything is made fresh daily that's why the California Fish Grill is very popular who loves seafood. They call my name I pick up our meal it looks so good. The fish was cook nicely tender and crispy and so good adding tartar sauce makes so good but adding malt vinegar make the fish more flavor and layers amazing flavor like the fries taste good but adding malt vinegar add explosive flavors in the fries more exciting. The coconut shrimp tasted very good but they forgot the sauce for the shrimp. We love coming to the California Fish Grill and enjoying the food and bring family and friends

    Decide to visit the Downey establishment Tunes flowing when you walk in the decor set up is pretty cool good size a Lil bigger the Norwalk, Norwalk has a larger patio area Downey has a small area patio area Very clean regular counter set up. But the kuchen area you can see a little more and that have like a quality assurance counter where you pick up your meal..nice. This timely wife and I ordered the same solmon and swai combo. She got corn it's fire roasted what kicks it up is the seasoning. Sweet potato fries good as always a little more crispy. And I got beans which I love how they are seasoned. Got Teriyaki sauce which kicked up our salmon and Swai. Customer service is flowing friendly and helpful. This is a comfortable establishment I would return

    I'm a huge fan of you guys until last friday, your fish n chips was your signature. We placed an order of three that day and it felt like we got it somewhere else. Battered thick and dry, fish very thin. Not quitting on you yet, just hope someone change it back to the original way......please

    I love the ordering system that is offered when you enter. Makes it so very easy to get your order in. I loved the staff. The manager in the night crew on a Saturday night was so friendly and offered top care when it came to customer service. I ordered the catfish with dynamite fries and diced zucchini & rosemary. All went together so well and tasted great. I will definitely be back!

    So disappointed with the fish n chips. Where's the fish ? Batter thick and burnt, thin thin pieces of fish stuck to the batter. This place used to have great quality food. Not anymore pls don't waste Your $$

    What kind of salmon is this
    Melissa C.

    We have been here about five times and this will probably be our last. The quality has gone down substantially. They didn't have anything wild caught, everything farm raised with wild caught pricing. The man at the door says multiple items are wild caught so I ordered and when I asked they said that menu was outdated. We ordered two salmon plates. They were more like flat carne asada steaks.

    The place messed up my order. Missing a shrimp plate and 2 drinks but they gave the order to the Uber eats driver. The items aren't even checked off.

We got there on a Friday at 12pm and when we arrived to the location, the parking was ridiculous, they do not have any parking for customers other than in a very small cul de sac which is French for a dead end. They have 1 parking spot for handicap. It is obvious that the neighboring houses complained to the city about their customers taking all the residential parking so they built a wall in the middle of the street, crazy right! Anyways, let's get into the food!!! So we got the tacos, 4 pastor and 4 asada and a horchata, came out to about $50. Pretty pricey, worth it? I don't know. The tacos were great, the asada has a char flavor and the pastor is freshly roasted and served with pineapple, the tortillas seemed to be made by hand as well and gave it that real authentic flavor. The horchata was a bit too sweet. I would recommend this place, but make sure you go when it is not busy. The staff were polite and helpful when ordering, they did not rush at all.

I highly recommend the tacos, especially the carne asada and al pastor--they're the best on the menu. I've tried the quesadillas, but they weren't as tasty, and the tripitas weren't the best either. For the best experience stick with carne asada and al pastor. They have about three small tables on the side to eat, but there's no parking or restroom available. Bring hand sanitizer and be ready to park wherever you can (without causing any trouble). It's the LA area, so parking is always a challenge. But don't let that stop you from trying these tacos. Cheers!

Your favorite Yelp correspondent was in the Downey area for a medical appointment when hunger pangs happily coincided w/ my need to kill a little time for traffic to abate. I ordered a mulita asada, a pair of asada tacos, my obligatory Diet Coke and a flan. The latter item would make my wife and doctor cringe because of my diabetes...So I ordered it solely for research, to give you fellow Yelpers an appraisal. My doctor and wife will be pleased to know I only sampled two bites of the flan. Tacos Gavilán features a well-provisioned self serve bar, brimming with all manner of flavorful sides. From refried beans to queso to finely minced onions y cilantro and multiple salsas, there's no shortage of items that'll elevate your order to Flavortown. The service is quick and friendly. The caliber of the food is good, tho not stellar. Certainly will fill you up and that's all you can or should expect at their (reasonable) prices The flan, made for Tacos Gavilán by a company called Flan-Tastic, is, true to its manufacturer, fantastic. Super moist, drenched in caramel with a bouncy, jello-like consistency. ALMOST as good as my best friend Mick's Cuban wife makes for special occasions. For my entree, two tacos, medium fountain beverage and dessert I spent $19.95, incl taxes.
