    Fish and shrimp combo
    Phyllis R.

    Excellent customer service, I phoned in my order for the first time. The young lady was very nice and welcoming. So excited to eat, she had to call me back to determine what type of fish I wanted. Haven't had the red snapper in years so I tried the HUD City special came with two sides of your choice.

    Let me start by saying the staff was very nice and helpful. I have been seeing this restaurant and decided to support it today but, the food was not worth the price I paid 25 dollars minus the drink for 3 pieces of fish and two burnt chicken wings with no flavor. The 3 pieces of fillet sole looked like they cut a big piece and made it into 3 and I was suppose to receive two sides of fries and only served one side. I was happy to support but will not recommend, we have to do better.

    David took our order and let me tell you, this guy was super welcoming and friendly. I felt like a regular and this was my first time here! I ordered the special #1 which was three pieces of fish (I chose catfish) with two sides which were red beans and rice and collard greens. The fish and shrimp were cooked to perfection. Breading was light and crispy and nothing was greasy. Great flavors all around. This is the best fried fish I've had anywhere near here. I will be back!

    GOODNESS, I've had my eye on this place for a while and finally decided to stop by.. I HAVE BEEN MISSING OUT. Literally some of the best cat fish I've had in a long while, hands down my new go to! I can't wait to stop by again!

    This is probably going to a part 1 of many for this review. The menu has such a variety of options from fish, chicken to sides. Parking can be a bit of a mess, but once you get it, it becomes worth it. David took my order and he was great to talk to. Catfish was good. Fresh and crispy. Honestly my favorite part of my order. Fried chicken was also very good.

    I had to get fingerprinted the other day…read more.. No, really, it's for my new job. So naturally, I drove from Rancho Palos Verdes to Long Beach to get it done. And England Fish & Chips had been on my radar ever since it popped up, I think, from someone else's Yelp review or YouTube channel. This small spot is in the corner of a strip mall and I've heard the lines can be long at peak hours but at 3pm on a Wednesday, it was a breeze and the friendly and smiling owner gladly took my order. I ordered a "Snacker" Fish & Chips for 7 bucks and change and it came out after perhaps a 5 minute wait after ordering and piping hot. HOLY MOLY; this place is LEGIT. My go-to spot for Fish 'n Chips in L.A. has always been Ye Olde King's Head in Santa Monica but this place is closer and truly delicious. For just over $7, you get a very large piece of fish and a huge helping of fries. The breading is delicious and perfectly crispy. The fish inside is delicate, flakey and moist. Your meal is served with ketchup and delicious tartar sauce but I'm a traditionalist and love dousing my F&C with Malt Vinegar which is on every table in the joint. I did cheat and tried the tartar sauce for some variety and it was fantastic. What an amazing hidden gem! TIKI DAVE HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDS England Fish & Chips! If you like TIKI DAVE's reviews...

    So I actually stumbled upon this place by accident. My phone had died and I lost my directions, and…read moresaw a little H. Salt, I remembered coming to H Salt as a kid, so I had to stop and grab some food for my mom as well. When I pulled into the parking lot, I quickly realized it's more of a one-way driveway setup. I almost ended up in an argument with another driver who was blocking the path and nearly backed into me. I'd honestly recommend finding street parking or parking nearby if possible. Once inside, there were quite a few customers. The atmosphere felt very old-school and slower paced, with more of an older crowd. The girl taking the order was very friendly, which I appreciated. I ordered the Three P's fish and chips, jumbo shrimp, and a large coleslaw. After taking it home, I thought the fish tasted light and fresh, and the fries were pretty good too. Overall, I thought it was decent. My mom, however, felt the food was a little soggy and could've been cooked a bit longer. She also mentioned the batter on the fish had a slightly sweet taste, almost like a donut or cake batter rather than a traditional fish batter. Overall, I wouldn't necessarily go far out of my way for it, but if you're already in the area, I'd say it's worth trying at least once.

    Wow you dont find too many of H. Salt Fish & Chips around.

There were a few people lined up and waiting. After all these years the fish and chips haven't changed. Still the same great quality and taste. The prices are still pretty reasonable. I ordered three of the Captain's Combo that came with two pieces of fish, a jumbo shrimp, and fries. This location had a few tables inside to eat if you want to dine in.

    It was our first time visiting The Enclave, and with so many dining options, Long Beach Fish Grill…read morestood out for us. We arrived around 8 p.m. and were the only customers at the time, which worked out perfectly since we were able to enjoy the patio with our dog. The concept is similar to California Fish Grill but better. I ordered the House Combo fish and chips with shrimp and scallops, which came with cocktail sauce, ketchup, and tartar sauce. We also started with a bowl of clam chowder to share. My husband was extra hungry and ordered both the salmon salad and a rockfish plate. Each dish came with soft yet nicely toasted garlic bread. Between the two, I preferred the rockfish over the salmon. We also upgraded our side to grilled zucchini and it was delicious! Overall, it was a really enjoyable dinner, and I'd definitely come back to try their sandwiches and tacos next time.

Not sure if they had like their own breading or something?...but they were sooooo crunchy on the outside and incredible soft on the inside. And the cheese sauce on the old bay fries wasn't your cheap nacho cheese; it was thick and had a creamy flavor that KILLED it. Their wings were also very crunchy, as were the calamari fries. I especially loved how the calamari was not minced, as I thought it would be so that it could be formed into a fry shape. I think the theme here is crunch. And they found the PERFECT balance between crunch and tender for each food I tried (didn't get the lobster dishes tho because I don't like lobster and I was kind of forced to come here...hahaha).

Location: in a shopping center across the street from Dignity Stadium in Carson. Plenty of parking although shared with other businesses. Food: I got the #1 lunch special with your choice of fish and two sides. I chose to go with french fries and hush puppies although I probably should've gone for the potato salad instead of the hush puppies. The catfish was perfectly fried, well seasoned and not overly fried. The fries were slightly salty, but crisp and not soggy, which was a godsend, especially coming from mom and pop shops. My one gripe with this whole dish was the hush puppies. Although nice and crisp on the outside, they were kind of small and I only got three hush puppies.3!!!!! if you're gonna give me small hush puppies at least give me a decent amount not just three. And if you're gonna give me three at least make them.bigger than the size of a gumball. While there is no seating on the inside and no AC, the service was good although the pick up system was a bit confusing for some of us. The smell of frying foods in that small shop can be overwhelming for some and a couple of us walked outside the door just to get some relief from all that oil smell. No drinks are offered here, so bring your own. Strictly a pick up and go shop, so if you're crunched for time, call your order in. Pricing is better than most, although considering what I got, I think I should've gotten more out of those hush puppies. What wasn't a comforting thought was one customer came in to make a complaint about a food item he said was not fully cooked. I didn't have such an issue with my fish, so to each their own. Would I come back? I might because the fish fry was top-notch. The sides, maybe not so much except for the fries. I want to make a second trip with a different kind of fish or shrimp combination to see if anything changes or if the quality remains the same.
