This is the original location that haas been there for years, but they've expanded to a few other locations. This location is small but it's cute and the staff is really friendly. You can order online for their regular menu but they had some specials this weekend (sign up for the emails because you can see the specials at leach location and you get a code for a free cookie for your birthday) so we called in. Food was ready in 15 minutes. We got the lobster roll which is Connecticut style-my preference-with lots of butter! They had a fish and chips special so we got that too. And a pb&j cookie for my birthday! My husband very recently broke his leg so picking up Chulas with some great lobster was a nice treat! It's not inexpensive but you get what you pay for. Very fresh, high quality seafood. They have great poke and a great fish market if you want to pick up raw seafood to cook at home. Definitely a little gem in SoSco.

MONGER AMONG US It's…read moregreat to have a fishmonger in the Valley that sources seafood from boat to table. Being the desert, the quality of Seafood is important, since we are nowhere near seawater and the reputable Chula Seafood is here to serve us, desert dwellers, well. TUNA MELT- it's refreshing to have a tuna sandwich that is not canned tuna. There is a chimichiri sauce that you can get to drizzle on it that really gives a depth of flavor. The bread was a nice sourdough that was not just a cheap white bread and did not get soggy. However, with my sandwich, the bread was burnt so that bitterness ruined the flavor of the delicate fish. My pictures shows a few burnt spots, but on the bottom side was way more burnt and it was like they put the most burnt side on the bottom to hide it and hope I didn't notice. I did not appreciate this. CLAM CHOWDER- creamy and more on the fluid consistency, being made with fresh clams makes the difference. Not the best chowder i've had, but was pretty decent. The fish variety can vary with seasons, but it is nice to get different choices throughout the year. There are limited offerings here compared to the bigger location across town, as far as menu and fish selection. But for a small store it is a good place to get some quality seafood to take home or sit and eat. Check out the great happy hour deals

Chula Seafood has quickly become one of my favorite spots in Phoenix…read more I absolutely love the restaurant and the location--it's got a great vibe, and the experience is consistently excellent. If you've been to their Camelback location, you'll be happy to know it's the same high-quality food and service here. The Hawaiian poke bowls are outstanding--always incredibly fresh and full of flavor. The fish & chips are some of the best I've had, perfectly crispy and cooked just right. And the grilled swordfish? Next level. I've been back four times in the past two months, and somehow it just keeps getting better every time--which is saying something because it was already amazing from day one. Service is always friendly and efficient, and you can tell they really care about quality. I can't recommend Chula Seafood highly enough. If you haven't tried it yet, you're missing out.

Drove up to this strip mall in Grayhawk. Plenty of parking and easy to access the restaurant…read more Ordered the Korean Bowl as well as the Fish and Chips . Fish & Chips - fish was super flaky and tasted fresh. Batter was light but still held their crunch. I ordered the 2 piece and it was super filling. In hindsight, I should've ordered the 1 piece. Korean Bowl - was spicy with again super fresh ahi tuna. The bowl had a Korean kochujang dressing. Just the right amount of vegetables combined with rice. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Kept the restaurant clean and checked in and gave me more refills of the basil mint lemonade. Great place in town.

Their staff recommended algae oil, about which we were completely unfamiliar, to pan sear their fresh black grouper. Its smoke point is remarkably high and flavor is delicate. Perfect! We'd also never cooked or eaten grouper skin. It was recommended and superb! Much like that of Branzino. Cooked in a small drizzle of the algae oil, it's now a repeat entree. Bonus is how it adds flavor to the fish and makes cooking it easier. We always prefer local businesses and cooking together for dinner dates at home. It is always such fun trying new dishes and Nelson's makes this even better.

Purchased July 2025…read more Confession: I would follow Jim and his Northstar Halibut truck pretty much anywhere. (And yes, that includes this morning when I drove all the way across town like a woman on a seafood mission.) This is the kind of business I love to support...small, family-owned, and absolutely passionate about what they do. Jim and his crew catch the fish themselves in Alaska, get it packaged and flown to Arizona, and then somehow manage to bring coastal-level freshness right into the middle of the desert. You'll usually spot him at Uptown Farmer's Market (bring a cooler...you'll want to stock up), but he also shows up roadside now and then like a seafood fairy godfather. And he's delivered larger orders right to my door in the past. Who does that anymore?! Jim does. Favorites? Halibut, cod, red snapper, and the smoked salmon which is basically a religious experience. Oh...and halibut cheeks. Trust me. A total delicacy. Never to be forgotten! The fish is always firm, clean, fresh, and so flavorful it barely needs seasoning. Jim's even been known to share a killer recipe if you're not sure what to make. Tonight? Halibut's on the menu and I might be eating early...because I've been craving it for weeks.

Very helpful and friendly employees 4. The loaded and twice baked potatoes when they don't have much pepper (just a personal preference). Just reheat slowly in foil until soft and melty. Trust me. They are delicious. If you want one with less pepper just choose one with less black specks. 4. Amazing price when they have a sale. For their anniversary they had 10 pounds of prime beef (their choice) for $110! Phenomenal price and great cuts were in my mystery box. Cons 1. Save your receipts just in case you need to return something. I bought two whole chickens that ended up smelling off/bad (rare instance that this happened here). I was able to return them because I luckily still had the receipt. Wouldn't have been able to return nor exchange without the receipt.

I found both of them and I also picked up some regular sesame oil since all we had at home is spicy sesame oil. I perused some other aisles but these were the only items I bought. It's a fairly large store with lots of items but a lot of them were not labeled with their price, which is frustrating to me. However, at the register I checked the prices and they were reasonable. It was busy on a Saturday but not too bad that I had to wait to be checked out. Prices were similar to the Chandler location but the ramen seemed expensive, I'll have to shop around for that. They were also making some dessert in the front of the store and it smelled good. I'd stop by again if I'm in the area.
