    1/2 Catfish Nuggets Dinner
    Lucy D.

    First time ordering from Captain Sam's but definitely won't be our last!! We ordered the following: catfish & onion rings with mac salad and cod & fried zucchini with mac salad. Everything was seasoned & cooked to perfection! 10/10 Highly recommend Captain Sam's Fish & Chicken!

    I've been to Captain Fish a few times, but this was my first time at this location the one off Home Ave. They offer great lunch specials at a very reasonable price. We ordered the large shrimp basket and added two catfish fillets on the side. Everything was prepared fresh, seasoned extremely well, and fried in clean oil, which made a big difference in the flavor. The service was prompt and efficient, and the overall experience was great. Definitely a must-try spot!

    6 catfish, 6 chicken wings with a large box of fries
    Ibi I.

    I ordered the combo with 6 pieces of catfish and 6 chicken wings, plus a big box of fries for $24.99, and honestly, it was a steal! The portion size easily feeds 3-4 people, and everything was hot, crispy, and perfectly seasoned. The catfish was tender inside with that golden, crunchy coating, and the wings were juicy with just the right amount of crisp. The fries were fresh and not greasy, which is rare these days. You can tell they take pride in their food and everything tasted like it was made with care. Customer service was also top notch! Friendly, fast, and welcoming from start to finish. The place feels local and genuine, the kind of spot that makes you want to come back. Highly recommend Captain Sam's if you're craving great fried fish or chicken at a very reasonable price. You definitely get your money's worth here!

    chicken in San Diego, look no further than Captain Sam's Fish and Chicken on Troy Ave! This place is an absolute gem, and I can't recommend it enough. The variety of flavors they offer is incredible--whether you're craving something classic or something with a little extra kick, they've got you covered. The fish is always fresh, perfectly seasoned, and fried to golden perfection. Every bite is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. And the chicken? Oh my goodness, it's some of the juiciest, most flavorful chicken I've ever had. What really sets Captain Sam's apart is the quality and care they put into every dish. You can taste the freshness in every bite, and it's clear they use top-notch ingredients. The portions are generous, and the prices are totally reasonable for the quality you're getting. The staff is super friendly and always makes you feel welcome, which just adds to the overall great experience. Whether you're dining in or grabbing takeout, Captain Sam's never disappoints. If you haven't tried this place yet, do yourself a favor and stop by. You won't regret it! Captain Sam's Fish and Chicken is a must-visit spot in San Diego.

    Came on a weekend because that's when they have both ox tails and beef ribs. I got 1 oxtail with…read morerice, a beef rib, 1 fried wing and a small side of collard greens with pork. The ox tail wasn't tough but I thought could be much softer, id have braised it for another 45 minutes or so. It came with some veggies that it was braised with. The beef ribs I believe were oven baked. They were Smokey and the BBQ sauce on the sweet side. I wish it was more tender. Maybe roast them covered first? The collard greens you can order them cooked in chicken, pork or vegan (no protein) I got them with pork, it was tender and flavorful. I'd try the vegan version next time. I also got a fried chicken wing which was tender and freshly fried. But the batter wasn't too crispy. It was a whole wing, flat, drumette and tip. Most of the food is all in heating trays, cafeteria style. I think if you order fried fish it's made to order. There are a few tables and a TV inside. You can look at the food behind the counter but you need to order at the register first. When the order goes in that's how the other person knows what to plate up. Be aware there's a 3% service fee if you use a credit card. So bring cash if you can.

I ordered a plate and was very well pleased with my boneless salt and pepper chicken wings cooked fresh to order and tasted it so yummy!! plenty of space for large groups and even has patio dining, which has a really nice vibe. Lots of customers come in for pick up orders and dining in. The team in the kitchen working efficiently to get the orders out in a timely manner.. I definitely will be back as this experience was great and next time instead of picking up my order, I will definitely dine in. If you ever in the LaMesa area on El Cajon Blvd., definitely stop in and give them a try. You won't be disappointed.!! and as always, you can thank me later

    I tried this amazing Chinese food restaurant called the Golden Dragon. We were greeted by Jasmine…read moreand welcomed us inside the place. She recommended the orange chicken and salt & pepper wings. We decided to order the Jian's plate that comes with 1 entrée and 1 side for $10.99 . We both ordered the orange chicken with fried rice and chow mein. There are tables to eat inside, but we decided to eat out on the patio. The orange chicken tasted amazing. It had to be the best orange chicken I've tasted. Jasmine gave excellent customer service by checking in on us giving us cup of ice, straws and napkins. This place beats Panda Express hands down . A must try if you like Chinese food. I'm looking forward to trying the salt & pepper wings next time. I overall give 5 stars to the Golden Dragon.

    Pat Chef John on his back!! YUM YUM YUMMY!!!…read more We live in Murrieta and decided to travel to Lemon Grove to see if all the ratings for Chef John's Fish and Chips is as good as they say!! We arrived 15 minutes before they opened to assure we will be one of the first customers. We must say if we could give a 10 star rating we would! We ordered the 6 piece fish & chips w/double FF, side order of shrimp and a side order of hush puppies! The fish & shrimp was LIGHTLY BATTERED and very Tasty along with the BEST tartar sauce we ever tasted! The size of the fish fillets is very long! We couldn't eat all of it so we're having leftovers Hush puppies were okay! The French Fries were very crispy, light & tasty! They opened right at 11:00a, we were the first to place our order, quoted a 30 minute wait and received it right at 30 minutes! The best part is it's so fresh and tasty because they prepare and cook as you order. The price was a bit high but it's well worth it because of the quality, environment, cleanliness, customer service with a smile and the Greatest Battered Fish & Chips is all worth it! We will visit again and we will tell our family & friends to support this location! See you soon Chef John & staff!! Note: we had left overs being they give you so much food and it taste just as fresh after warming up in air fryer

The portions are HUGE, and they were so generous with the amount of food they gave us. You definitely get your money's worth here! This little mom-and-pop shop is an absolute must-try whenever you're craving fish and chips. The tartar sauce was one of my favorite! Their cocktail sauce was also delicious and paired perfectly with shrimps. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. We placed a phone order and unfortunately got there after they had already closed because of traffic. Even though we arrived late, the employee who helped me was so kind and nice. I really appreciated the excellent customer service and how understanding they were. One thing to keep in mind is that the food does take a little longer to prepare, but that's because everything is made fresh to order--and you can definitely taste the difference! Fresh, crispy, generous portions, delicious sauces, and genuinely friendly service. What more could you ask for? We absolutely loved our experience and will definitely be back soon!
