    New England Clam Chowder. Good!
    Julio V.

    Pretty decent fish and chips here! The batter was flavorful, crispy, and not too heavy. The fries were really great! I couldn't stop eating them. We also ordered some tacos which were good. The clam chowder was good too but I wish it was served hotter. Service was good. Plenty of street parking in the area. They have a small area for outside dining. The place was pretty clean. Overall a good spot.

    We are here in long Beach for a boat cruise, and while walking around and exploring near our hotel, we looked on Yelp for a place to eat lunch. Very close by is a place named Crazy Fish Grill Express. We walked over and the place has some charm. Small place with nice decor and a few seats, but outside seating is also available. Ordered the Sea Bass with garlic butter sauce, and fish tacos plate. Reasonably priced and both was very good! I think we're going to eat here again before we go on the cruise in a couple of days!

    Made it to San Pedro and saw this restaurant that caught my attention due to the beautiful signage outside. Decided I was in the mood for some fish tacos so went inside to order. Staff was friendly and I was helped right away. I decided to get one grilled and one battered taco. Got them to go and they came very well presented in a box, tacos comes with sauce and coleslaw. I 100% recommend the battered taco more as it's softer to eat and has more flavor. I felt the grilled taco was much drier and even the sauces didn't help. Not the best fish tacos I've ever tried but I did enjoy the battered one.

    After doing errands around the area, I decided to try this spot. Parking can be tough, paid street parking. Luckily, I was able to find a parking a block away and decided to walk. I ordered fish and chips, just to try it out. Great customer service. Small place with couple tables. I believe there's outdoor seating. I was surprised on how good the fries are. Well, the fish was definitely delicious - light, crispy and seasoned well. Overall, a must try place if you're craving fish and chips. Will definitely have to try their other menu.

    Generous portions. Side salad was a nice refreshing surprise.

    Craving some fish and chips, so stopped by. We love calamari and of course had to order some. Overall great experience. Staff was welcoming and pleasant. Food made fresh and brought to table in no time. The batter on the fish is thicker, and more on the sweeter side, but very enjoyable. The calamari was just the way we liked it. Lightly battered and wasn't too oily. The salad that came with it was awesome. Lemon and oil dressing. Love this addition. Too bad no wine or beer, though. Bathroom needs some TLC. But would def come back if we're in the area.

    Salmon fish tacos & fried shrimp tacos were fireeeee. Would like to go back and try more.

    Have you ever seen a sitcom or a cartoon that shows a one-person band? The person (usually a guy) has a big drum tied to his back, like the world's bulkiest backpack. A harmonica is suspended by an iron stick in front of his mouth, so he can play it because his hands are occupied with a violin and a flute, while the inside of his knees are strapped with symbols. And his toe-steel shoes have jingle bells on their heels. The point is that this man brings the melody of symphony by his sole actions. I bring this character to light because when I went to Crazy Fish Grill Express, it was Isaac who was the one-man band, who brought, not melody, but a wonderful dining experience to me when I visited the joint. Thus, his employers should know that he is beyond a one man band, he is a one man show, and this is my standing ovation to him cause he truly deserves the praise. I went with my friend Alexa to Crazy Fish. Truth be told, I would not have gone to the joint if it were not because Isaac invited me, we sometimes see each other at the same bar. I would not have gone to this joint because I did not think it held wonder. Yes, I judged a store by its front, I know I was wrong. But I just did not think that this place would deliver great fish fare (and meat dishes too) at an extremely reasonable price. It was quality food, the same that one would expect at the Water Grill (in OC or DTLA) or Neptune's Beard (a restaurant I just named that I imagine dwells in Atlantean avenues and its city corridors). But I am so glad I gave this place a chance. I felt like I had bought a scratcher out of love for chance, and hit a minor jackpot that made me feel lucky for my decision to try. As soon as you entered, you were impacted by the material of the Ocean. My favorite fish of the school, was the mounted swordfish. I wondered if I were fighting a vampire could I use the fish's sword to stake him and win? I am writing this during spooky season, so there is a chance I discover the answer to this question, the hard way. I did not feel like this place took under the high seas. Its maritime decor was not immersive. But the decor was present enough for me to feel like I had felt the quick heartbeat of a whale rising out of the water and plunging itself back in--- splashes of water are quick and then forgotten, but their droplets around remain. Isaac came to the front after we rang the bell. Alexa and I had questions, as we ordered in the moment. I wanted to try several items, to honor my first experience within the joint. She imagined certain choices, I did the same, and our taste buds were meeting at places but not agreeing fully. When she and i were deciding on which sauce would top our salmon plate, Isaac offered us all the sauces available from Chimichuri to Garlic Butter to Seasoned Olive Oil. He transitioned from a staff member to a diplomate in that moment. The salmon plate came with two sides, we agreed on the brusselsprouts, and she selected the fries. What can you do? Sometime the basic wins. We also ordered their grilled fish taco plate, which comes with rice and beans. The fish in the taco is Mahi Mahi. It was not named in the menu. We also ordered a braise beef taco, which was refreshing to see in a fish joint. Alexa and I sat outside, the moment felt right for al fresco dining. Isaac brought the food to us, after he cooked it. The braised beef taco came first. We had to wait for plastic ware. She cut the taco, and kept all the pikcled onions on her half. I noted this to her and she shared, I wanted my half to be composed too. I took a bit of my braised beef taco half, and, it was juicy, savory, and tasted like meat that was simmered for my enjoyment. When I took a bite I turned my head to the sidewalk, the meat juices dripped without hesitation. I did not my shirt or pants to receive joy spilled, the sidewalk could handle that. The brusselsprouts were roasted to the point of glory. They rivaled the brussels that had silverware and beans served on plates, not on cardboard vessels. In fact, much of the food was delicious, I felt lucky to be its eater. But if you are looking for the grace and charm associated with higher price tags then keep on moving, because the black means that were one of the sides of the Mahi Mahi taco plate came in one of those vessels that held tater tots in high school cafeterias. But the taste of the black beans and the brown rice and the Mahi Mahi tacos all were scrumptious and true to their simple origin, but elevated. The tacos came with Crazy Sauce. It was thick and rich, but perhaps a bit less would do. I forgot to order a diet coke. Isaac simply said, " I got you" and brought me one. His service was professional, attentive and never came close to being overly sweet. It was respectful and engaging, he added depth to the moment. I hope he works to fulfill his future so he knows the ocean beyond his tank.

    Came here with my wife after having therapy at Little Company of Mary San Pedro. We both ordered the fish and chips with no salt on the fries. The batter on the fish and chips was light and the fries crispy. Since I am on a low sodium diet, the fish and chips hit the mark with great flavor without being salty. We will be back to try the grilled fish on their menu.

    Grilled shrimp bowl no wontons
    Ali I.

    I've been here multiple times and mostly stick to their grilled fish and zucchini. Always delicious. Their beans and rice aren't great but they're fine. The coleslaw is really good and it has green apple and sometimes papaya. Not super mayo-y. I've tried their bowls a few times and they are super good too. They come with chopped zucchini, corn, tomatoes, serrano peppers, aioli, rice, shrimp or salmon (grilled or fried), coleslaw, and fried wontons. I usually get it with more veggies, less rice and no aioli or wontons. Tried their fish and chips recently because I read good things. The kid's order comes with 2 pieces, while the regular comes with 4. I got the kids and it was the perfect size. It was good but not the best fish and chips. The batter was a bit thick and got mushy as it cooled. Prob won't order them again.

    I really like what I ordered, if only it's a bit spicier! The girl who was helping us was really helpful and the place is nice. It was bright and clean.

    We took a harbor cruise around the port and decided to stop by downtown San Pedro and try some sea food. We were not ready to pay $$$ for something fancy, but were looking for something fresh and easy. And Crazy Fish Grill Express delivered! We had grilled salmon, grilled bass and tuna poke, and everything was delicious and flavorful! I was particular impressed by their coleslaw - it was gigantic, easy on the dressing, and had mango in it! Very refreshing. We got friendly service and excellent recommendation from the staff and the bill for the three of us came up to $50, which we were happy to part with. It's an awesome local spot!

    Poke and Chips
    Airi G.

    You will be going crazy for the crazy fish and chips. I typically don't go for it but my boyfriend offered me a bite and I was hooked. It tasted so good even without the tartar sauce and I don't know what they do with their fries because it was so crispy and well-salted. I think they must have been double battered because I was addicted and kept taking some from his plate. I ordered the blackened wild-caught Alaskan salmon with brown rice and grilled zucchini. It's definitely not as fatty as regular salmon but tastes good when you eat it with the sides. We got two appetizers: poke and chips and New England clam chowder. The clam chowder was a bit on the salty side for me and I used it more as a sauce for the rice than a dish on its own. I wish it came with bread because it would've made it much better. The poke was better since the soft texture of the fish was a good contrast with the crunchy chips. It wasn't the freshest poke I've had but satisfied the craving. The worker was friendly and approachable. We sat inside because they had a TV to watch the game but there's plenty of seating outdoors too.
