The food was tasty and fresh. The staff were friendly and polite. My husband ordered grilled sea bass and I had fish and shrimp tacos. They were all delicious. The restaurant was clean and the staff brought our food to our table. Will definitely come back! read more

Was in the area and thought to give this place a try... glad we did. Food cooked fresh (takes about 15 min) and service friendly and gentlemen helping us so respectful. Had 3 piece fish and chips (pieces reasonably sized and plenty of shoe string fries.) Also order fresh grilled salmon with fries and grilled zucchini. Very tasty and not overcooked. Only thought... fish a little on the oily side (had fish plain with no sauces). Will be back. read more

Have used fish daddy many times over the past few years. Coming from England, we expect a great deal from our fish and chips lol. I have always found the fish to be pretty good, however tonight, the fish was outstanding. Nice crispy batter, moist perfectly cooked fish. Tonight was the best fish and chips I have had since moving to USA 15 years ago! Whoever fish tonight did an excellent job and deserves a pay rise! Keep up the good work!! The only drawback was the pieces of fish have become a little bit smaller , read more

Randomly stumbled upon this place and wow it did not disappoint! We got the swai fish plate with rice and Zuchini, crispy fish tacos and shrimp tacos. Everything was so fresh! Fish plate was way better than California fish grill and we surprisingly liked the fish tacos more than taco nazo! Would definitely come back. read more

Been hearing about this restaurant from coworkers for weeks. Had lunch plans with a friend who is pescatarian and she was curious too, so it was the perfect opportunity for us. I was a little shaky going into it, noting the rather bland dining area and seemingly underdressed counter and kitchen. The woman taking orders was welcoming and friendly, but seemed rushed and on edge. The food was drop dead beautiful, specifically the fish (to be expected). I ordered and devoured the white fish plate with beans and rice, a salmon taco, and a mahi taco. The beans and rice were ok for side choices, but nothing will beat the quality and taste of the fish. I hold faith that this location will deliver top notch goods every time. Cant wait to explore the menu with my next visit. read more

I came here for the first time with my grandma. I ordered the three piece fish and chips for myself because I saw it was the most popular dish they had on Yelp. I ordered my grandma the swai with garlic butter, rice, and zucchini. Everything was delicious and better than California Fish and Grill (menu is similar). I recommend the coleslaw if you are indecisive for a side. Plenty of seats inside and service was fast and friendly. Clean and spacious interior. read more

Fish Daddy grill is ALWAYS delicious and pleasant. Amazingly they have kept their prices reasonable. The quality and taste is as always exceptional. We are in tonight, easy seating and quiet. Maria made sure we had what we needed. If you have tried them yet...do it read more

I think that their fryer is where it's at! We both fish tacos and their grilled fish entrees. I really liked the fish tacos! It stayed crispy even through we got take-out. Fish in the fish taco wasn't fishy, flaky and tender, and very tasty with all of the fixins. For the grilled fish entrees, we got the grilled mahi and grilled sea bass, both lightly seasoned. We tried both sauces, and we preferred the cajun sauce. The garlic butter was a bit bland. While I found the mahi a bit dry, I did like the sea bass - I found it to be tender and flavorful, especially when dipped in the cajun sauce. I was hoping to really like the zucchini after reading over reviews, but I was a bit let down. I did enjoy the seasoning on the fries. read more

Delicious! Clean! Quick! What more can you ask for? Just half of this dish filled me up for lunch. I immediately told my whole family about this place. It's safe to say I'll be back again soon. My only regret is that I didn't try it sooner. I ordered the Grilled White Fish Plate in Rose Sauce & Parmesan cheese. They also asked if I wanted sauce for the fish and I opted for the garlic butter. The fish melts in your mouth. The pasta is good and complements the fish. I wouldn't order the pasta by itself. It's not bad-just not anything extraordinary. The bread was also just okay, but the fish made the whole meal, which is what you'd want from a place called Fish Daddy, right? Also, the bathroom and dining area are extremely clean. Overall great experience. read more

Decided to try this place out since it seemed promising and ratings are not bad. We got the crispy fish tacos and tilapia grilled (with rice and fries). The food took about 15 minutes even though there's only one other party besides us. Portion is a bit small for the price. My fish taco was mainly batter, veggies and sauce. Overall, food was alright and underwhelming. read more

Decent food, mediocre service. The first bite is pretty good, but it kind of goes downhill from there. The person taking our order was nice, not particularly rude or friendly. I wasn't the biggest fan of the seasoning on the tacos. It was supposed to be Cajun, but was more like Sriracha mayo with more mayo than Sriracha. I also would have preferred some more pico de gallo on top. The white fish was actually better than the tacos. Very generous portion, and the brown rice was delicious. The grilled zucchini was also good. I don't think I would go back, but it wasn't terrible. read more

Located near Euclid/Commonwealth in Fullerton. Fast casual with cash discount. Prices are fair, menu has a variety of seafood, and shop is super clean. However, it is often quite warm inside, which makes it uncomfortable to dine in. Servers will call out when your order is ready. No fountain drinks, only canned drinks. Recommend plate entrees for best value and taste. Plenty of parking. This would be a 5-star establishment if the A/C was colder and tacos were more traditional (i.e., pico de gallo instead of fusion sauce). read more

I rarely do reviews but this place has been consistently good every time I've had it. The first order I had from them were their crispy fish tacos and they were just amazing, especially the sauce. I used to hate grilled fish, I always thought they were so bland. I was also never a fan of places like California Fish Grill, but place changed my mind. I decided to take a chance and order their grilled sea bass.. and it was amazing. Whatever they're putting in their food is like crack. Even the salad was delicious. And I rarely order salad from anywhere. I'm so glad this place exists near my house so I know I have access to some bomb grilled/fried fish read more

Itʻs simple, the food is great, the place is not fancy, but clean. The owner and his family are really nicee. if you just want fresh fish, this is the place to go. No frills, just the right price, and hands down the best place for fish and chips around! read more

We had takeout. The food was good, but some of the dishes were quite a bit over priced for what we got. The fish taco had very little fish even for my 88 year old mom, (she complained and eats very little) and our 4 piece fish and chips order was also really small! Another handful of fries and alittle more fish would have made it a fair deal for the price. read more

Awesome place. Eat there often. Always great seafood dishes. The restaurant is quiet great place to chill and have a meal

The value for the quality of these crispy fish tacos is amazing! Good toppings and the sauce is pretty tasty. There is a lot of seating, and I've found a table to sit at even during their busy times (usually during weekend lunches). It's not the most well-lit place, but it's not too much of an issue since I'm focused on the food itself. read more

We came here hungry after a spin class in the area and it did not disappoint! Trying to balance being healthy and treating myself on a Friday night, I got the grilled white fish with fries and a salad. Fiancé got the crispy fish tacos and we ordered a calamari appetizer to share. Everything came out sizzling and fresh! I dropped a calamari stick because it was so hot lol! The fish was soft and came apart really easily. I almost ordered extra protein but I'm glad I didn't because it was a hefty portion. Loved that they put the butter sauce and the salad dressing on the side so you can choose how much you want to use yourself. The salad tasted fresh and the fries were perfectly crispy. I would say this is a better California Fish Grill, which is on our rotation of inexpensive, casual eateries. It's a little further of a drive for us but whenever we're craving casual seafood from now on, we'll be coming here instead! read more

I've had this place on my radar for quiet a while now. I was at a new coffee spot right next door and I was hungry as well so decided to pick up some food here. Upon entering, there were three tables filled up and several people there to pick up orders. I stood there awkwardly, tempted to leave a couple times but was finally greeted by someone after a long 5 or so minutes of standing around. There was a full house working hard on orders so I gave them a chance. Here's what I ordered: **Crispy Fish Taco: Easily the best fish taco I have ever had in my life. Very flavorful fish, cooked to perfection, and the sauce they lathered on top was extremely flavorful and not overly salty. (5/5) **Cajun Mahi Taco: Cajun flavor wasn't too strong and it was nothing special but fish was cooked perfectly. (3/5) I probably came during one of their busiest hours so I won't dock off a star for the extremely long wait to get acknowledged and get my order taken. The wait once I ordered was another 10 minutes but granted, it was very busy so I won't dock off a star for that either. The food is great but I highly recommend you call in if you're doing takeout. read more

Found this place randomly and honestly a hidden gem in Fullerton I got the grilled tilapia with a side of rice and coleslaw and everything about it was perfect. The Cajun sauce was also delicious. I also added the clam chowder and it was very tasty for this cold weather will definitely be coming back. read more

I came here with my parents for a quick lunch. I had been having some stomach issues lately so seafood seemed like a good and healthy option. The inside of the restaurant is pretty plain, but very clean. The cashier was really helpful as we had a few questions about their menu. I got the Mahi Mahi cajun style with cajun fries and zucchini. We didn't have to wait long for our food and everything came out super fresh. My Mahi Mahi was grilled and seasoned perfectly. The fries were crispy and were tasty with that cajun punch. The zucchini were also grilled to perfection. I also really loved the sauce that was served on the side, great for dipping your fish in. We had a really nice lunch here and my stomach felt perfectly fine afterwards. read more

Amongst other shops & restaurants in this plaza, this was a gem right next to H & R Block. I noticed a lot of locals come & go in the short 20 minutes that I was there. Orders: Shrimp & Fish tacos-seafood was fresh but tasted even better with the sauce. Grilled Tilapia w.Grilled Zucchini & French Fries- well grilled without the oil, so I felt really healthy eating this dish. The zucchini was not from a frozen prepackaged freezer, but fresh & cut thick. I was pleasantly surprised with how perfectly well they grilled it without making it too soggy or limp. For $13 it was a reasonable lunch meal. Next time I would love to try another fish dish. read more

Everything was spotted on! This place is awesome. Number 1 go to spot for seafood. Recommend to all my friends.

I imagine that most seafood and fish and chips restaurants get pretty busy during lent. The good Catholics do their best to fast and abstain from meat. Yes, that includes chicken... IDK why so many of my friends, especially Hispanic friends, don't consider chicken meat... I wanted an opportunity to try some fish and chips on a "non-busy" day. That way, if i did want fish and chips on a Friday or other day of abstinence, I had some options. The Three Broomsticks in Universal Studios Hollywood has really good fish and chips. But the entrance fee, line and the amount of time to drive there, park and walk to get food is absurd, especially if you just want some quick eats. I mention it, because in terms of comparison, it is very comparable to Fish Daddy Grill. The fish fillets are similarly shaped, meaning they are frozen pressed and formed "torpedoes" that are defrosted and dipped in a tempura type batter and deep fried. The fries or chips were also comparable, shoestring style (think of McDonalds type of fries but without the same taste or texture). It's also not a real fish and chips place, like Carnaby St. in La Puente. There, you get various shaped pieces that have the outline of a side of fish, not some pressed and formed "stick." My initial impression was that it was not bad. I could see myself getting this again, especially during lent. The parking was excellent and the ability to call an order in ahead of time was a plus. No wait was also a big plus. Lastly, unlike Carnaby St., debit, credit and contactless pay (Samsung pay in my case) was accepted. Carnaby only takes cash... I also got the "bowl" of clam chowder for $4.99. This bowl really was more of a cup, but I digress... The first two pieces of fish were good. The cod or whatever white fish they use, was very mild. So much so, my initial bite tasted like warm water. The batter was crisp, not burned, with a mild sheen of oil. The fish was piping hot, moist and firm, but flaky. The fries were just okay. I eat my fish and chips the traditional way with malt vinegar on my fries. Being shoestring fries, it really didn't absorb the vinegar, so I had to dip it onto the vinegar that dripped onto the bottom of the carton. The coleslaw tasted like it was prepackaged (Costco, Sams, your call...). However. HOWEVER, my third piece of fish had an altogether different textures. It was firm. I mean, really firm. And the taste wasn't as mild, either. I looked at it and rather than being bright white like the other two pieces, it was more yellow with some grey. The taste and texture, to me, was that of freezer burn. Someone must have left the bag of fish open or with a hole and put it back in the freezer. This really turned me off to continuing with my meal. I mean, I was going to give it 4 stars but that was kinda gross... The clam chowder was very hot. So much so, the styrofoam bowl it came in was bowed out on the bottom and where it was resting on top of the fish and chips, it melted the top cover of the fish. The soup was watery and had many bubbles on the perimeter. Based on the temperature, the appearance of the container and the wateriness, I assumed this had been sitting in a pot or steam table for quite some time and they used cream or water to dilute it when it thickened up. Don't get me wrong, the taste was good and I think my son and step daughter, who love clam chowder, would equally love this. But I didn't get the impression of "fresh." So based on this particular experience, for the food only, I would have given 2 stars. However, the ease of ordering, the ample parking, the multiple payment methods and the speed of service bumped this up to 3 stars. Imagine how much better the score would have been if the fish wasn't freezer burned or the clam chowder was a bit thicker... I can only imagine... read more

1 Star - super clean establishment and no funk of seafood in air that predominantly seafood restaurants can have 1 Star - gotta love the name. It's the sense of humor for me. Makes zero sense cuz who is the Fish Daddy but it's funny. 1 Star - very friendly, sweet and helpful cashier. When you're the face of the restaurant, it's important to have a smile and friendly demeanor which often seems to be lost on folks these days 1 Star - generous portion size at super reasonable price for seafood 1 Star - the food we had was yummmm. Catfish fried to perfection, the deep fried fish was absolutely well done It's nice to have "healthier" alternatives to "fast food". read more
