Great food options. I want to try EVERYTHING on the menu. My husband and I loved the clam chowder and our swordfish. Great customer service. Very kind. Excited to return. read more

We absolutely love this restaurant. The food is consistently delicious, the atmosphere is always welcoming, and it's truly become one of our favorite spots. A big part of what makes our visits so special is Christian. He goes above and beyond every time we're there--always friendly, attentive, and genuinely caring. Specially with my kids! He is the best! Highly recommend to anyone looking for great food and even better service! read more

The best spot of the 3 spots I've been to all day. I'm surprised by the portion size of the fish and chips. I'd like to come back just for the fish and chips; it was the perfect large pieces of crispy fish. The ono fish burger was also great and fresh (warning: a bit sloppy, coleslaw drips everywhere). They sell beers here.Great stop great experience. read more

This is always a good family friendly place to go where you are not breaking the bank. I had the clam chowder and forgot to take a photo because I was devouring it. So yummy. I also tried the shrimp po-boy sandwich that was actually good. Usually we get fish tacos or a poke bowl which is what all the kids opted for this round. Would definitely recommend this place. read more

Tasty fish tacos & wraps. My wife thought their shrimp tacos were some of the best she's ever had. I had a wild-caught catch-of-the-day swordfish Coastal wrap which was also delicious. We added a side chips & pico de gallo & Hazy IPA - great lunch - so much better than fast food after hiking Annie's Trail. A bit pricier but fresh & high quality. read more

Fish District - Chips & pico de gallo, hazy ipa - Fish & Chips Near Me - Solana Beach, California

I have been going here for a while when down this way. This is a go-to spot to keep on your list for consistently tasty, fast (but not fast food), fresh food at a great value. Prices here beat out most other places you can go and you can walk out of here for a great meal for under $20. We like the fish tacos (huge and stuffed with fish and cabbage and stuff), salmon sandwich-tasty salmon filet with slaw of carrot, cucumber, lettuce and other tasty stuff, fish and chips (portion of two pieces is plenty for most people), fried shrimp is good too. Poke bowls are also a great choice. Haven't had a meal that I haven't been satisfied with here. Put this on you keeper list. It's a must visit. read more

This is a shout out to Alim, he made sure I was taken care of yesterday with my food (fish and chips plus fried calamari). The soft drinks station has Maine root beer, Mexican coke, blue berry soda, vanilla crème and ginger brew. The flavor of both seafood (Alaska cod and calamari) with the parsley tastes fresh and yes more flavorful than what I had compared to California fish grill. The Fish District really does that little extra--fresh parsley, brighter seasoning, lighter batte. So, it makes everything feel less heavy and more "alive." That herb finish I mentioned. That's exactly the kind of detail chains usually skip. read more

Best place for Fish and Chips. My husband and I always split a 2 piece plate. Fish is hot and fries are plentiful. Their New England Clam Chowder is also excellent. I always try to time my appointments around lunch time so that I can pick up food to take home. read more

Nice little casual joint located amidst a shopping center in Solana Beach. The menu is pretty good and the service is average. That said, the Mahi Burger and the fries here are amazing! read more

PLAZA EATS (3.5 stars) - FOOD: average - PRICE: fair - SERVICE: good - AMBIANCE: simple eatery with tables Located in a plaza in the sleepy neighborhood of Solano Beach is this little eatery serving up fried seafood. Not very busy but feel like the people that do come here are frequent flyers. BATTERED FISH - KIDS MEAL ($10.5) - Two fish pieces, served with a side/picked French fries, and a drink. What can I say? I eat like a bird. This meal was very filling that I had to pack half of it. It was plenty for a kids meal but I always wasn't devouring it because it was just okay-average. The batter on the fish tasted like plain fried donut (no seasoning and kind of cake-y flavor). The fries were crispy but plain. You do have to reply on the dips and condiments for flavor. I squirted lemon and tried both dipping sauces (dill dip which tasted like ranch and dill and tartar sauce; tartar sauce was a lot better). RECOMMEND CUP OF NEW ENGLAND CLAM CHOWDER ($7.5) - Clams, creme, potato, onion, carrot, celery. I was impressed with their clam chowder until after my meal I had the urgency to "drop the kids off at the poolside". It was hearty and creamy, not stringy on the clam meat, and full of flavor. Was it my favorite? it was good but I've had better. RECOMMEND (TUMS Recommended) Until the next review.... read more

Service was very slow and it was super expensive for two. We ordered the clam chowder which was delicious. Ordered the fish and chips and there was more breading than fish. The table where they sat us wasn't clean and we had to ask for napkins to wipe the table. We will stick with Brigantine for fish and chips. Way better and a ton cheaper. read more

Wow. From service to food I just had a great experience here. A nice young man I believe his name was Isaiah answered all of my questions and then brought me my food quickly with a warm smile on his face. Interactions like these are what keep the food industry enjoyable! Thank you Fish District read more

This is one of my favorite cafes. Great menu choices. Craft sodas. I brought my sister for her first time. She loved the battered fries. My go to is always a poke bowl w half tuna half salmon. Citrus ponzu sauce. I also love the fried portobello mushrooms with basil aioli. Worth every penny. The service is fast, friendly. Wheelchair friendly. Plenty of parking. I cannot wait to go back. read more

The manager is so amazing my kids love this place .By far the most fresh salmon and avocado in town .We go weekly from school. Tortillas are made local .highly recommend it all . read more

I looked at the menu before and knew I wanted the clam chowder and fish and chips on this chilly day. The place is a fast casual place. Plenty of seating, you can sit down and they have a QR menu and you can directly order from your seat. Very reasonable priced, the most expensive item on their menu is $16. The food was great, we ordered clam chowder cup with a Half tuna melt for an extra $6.50; and fish and chips. Would recommend this place, from the tartar sauce, the crispy exterior well seasoned soft on the inside fish and chips. The tuna melt wasn't super mayo-ish and bread was well toasted. They had a selection on non seafood items as well as wine/beer list. read more

Visiting our SD County sister and found this terrific place for fish just off the 5 in Solana Beach. Great poke, fried shrimp and best clam chowder ever. Since it was 7pm Sunday night (open till 8) the place was pretty empty but service was very accommodating and friendly. Just wish we had one of these in our Long Beach neighborhood. read more

A+ spot - I come here once a week for fresh poke, fish tacos, or fish burritos and am never disappointed (plus the fries are also so damn good). Huge shoutout to Christian, he's the best - always very welcoming and really cares about customers. The whole staff is great and I always enjoy coming by. Solid food for a good price, definitely recommend! read more

I absolutely love this place! We used to have one in Orange County, but it unfortunately closed. My favorites are there fish tacos and fish and chips. They are fried to absolute perfection! The staff is always kind and their service is quick. This location is not too busy on the weekends too.Cant wait to be back! read more

For a local chain this location rocks. Right off the highway with easy access to the hiking trails. Some of the best and fish and chips that can be easily customized that one can get . The real surprise was the bowl of clam chowder. It looked small for a bowl and was not a good start but it was super packed with clams and minimal potatoes which a lot of places just cram it with. Sides were small but tasty. Can't complain about anything read more

I visited around 5 PM on a Saturday. The place was quiet with plenty of seating, and we were the only ones there. I ordered the chicken teriyaki, upgrading to quinoa instead of rice for $1, and opted for vegetables, though cabbage is also available as an option. The service was excellent, and the food was incredibly fresh and flavorful. It took less than 10 minutes for the dish to be served. read more

Fish District - Chicken Quinoa Bowl - Fish & Chips Near Me - Solana Beach, California

There are so many great fish places in North Coastal San Diego so we finally tried this chain because of a free clam chowder coupon in the mail. We had the ahi salad that was surprisingly good especially with white rice at the bottom. Nice tangy dressing and generous amount of tuna. We also had the combo fish & shrimp with chips...excellent. Big shrimp, fresh fish, crispy...but the fries were soo good. PS - It's counter service and you sit anywhere. Cashier could be friendlier especially when explaining the use of the coupon...a lunch sized bowl (1/2 price of the coupon value) that could have been alot hotter. read more

Glad my fish loving kids liked the fries because they surprisingly barely touched the fish. Salmon coastal wrap barely had any mango salsa, felt like I was just eating a flour wrap with lots of cabbage and some salmon...it tasted pretty bland, when I asked if they had a sauce to help it - they were willing to give me a Sriracha mayo sauce for free. The shrimp po boy tasted okay; not worth getting again. The price is on the high side of average. For example, one taco is $7. Workers were kind and recommended their favorites. We liked that it was easy to park, there was no wait, lots of seating, you can get your drinks and refills yourself, and an easily accessible bathroom (no key or code needed and within the interior of the restaurant). read more

Great Spot! Did not know it was a chain but the food is delicious. Portion sizes (the actual fish) are not great and they can get really busy for such a small location but overall worth a visit. Recommend! read more

My go to poke place! I've been going to fish district for a while now, and with its new interior design it looks amazing. Super modern and comfortable. I always get the traditional sauce and love how they make most the decisions for you (unlike most poke places.) also the salmon is amazing and the popcorn shrimp. Definitely give it a try! read more

Not only is the food here so fresh and absolutely delicious, the customer service has a very special touch... I was having quite a day, and the gentleman who took my order completely shifted my mood with his kindness and generosity. Thank you so much Fish District, people like this are so needed in the world! SO great, wow :) read more

The level of disrespect from the employees at this place is unbelievable. I've never felt so openly unwelcome in a restaurant. From the moment you interact with them, it's clear they have no respect for customers or really for anyone whatsoever. The tone is rude, dismissive, and arrogant. You're spoken to like you're a problem instead of a paying customer. No basic manners, no professionalism, no attempt to hide their irritation. It's not subtle--it's blatant. What makes it worse is that this behavior is consistent across the staff. This isn't one bad employee having a rough day. This is a pattern. When every interaction feels hostile, that tells you exactly how this place is run. Management clearly allows--or encourages--this kind of behavior. And the food? Just as bad. Greasy, low quality, and clearly prepared without care. Heavy, unpleasant, and hard to finish. The food reflects the same attitude as the staff: rushed, careless, and disrespectful to the customer. This restaurant has a serious culture problem. Disrespectful employees, poor leadership, and food that isn't worth the money or the frustration. Until there is a complete overhaul in how staff are trained and managed, this place does not deserve customers. Spend your money somewhere that understands basic human respect still matters! read more

Best clam chowder ive ever had, fish and chips were crispy and tasty too The friendly dude working the register made it seem like every option in the menu is worth trying so im excited to go back. Overall a casual spot with good vibes. read more

Amazing fish and chips! Some of the best I've ever had! The fish tastes very fresh, has a nice thin/crispy coating, and comes out hot and fresh. The battered fries it comes with were great too. I wouldn't get the calamari again as it was overcooked, but I'd still return regardless. Good service. read more

Whenever I am out towards San Diego, I crave fish and chips so after a long day at the Delmar racetrack, I found this spot. The service was great. The fish was crispy and tasty with all the condiments the crispy seasoned fries were just as good. A great totter sauce as well would definitely return when in the area thank you. read more

Service is numero uno with me. Yes, I love good food too, but to watch a crazy busy place on a Saturday lunch by himself is a show by itself. Sawyer did it all today as far as this customer could tell. And did it with energy and a smile. Just went simple and had the cod fish taco with avocado and it was so good. Fresh, simple with great sauce. Next time I'll venture outside my comfort zone and go big. But today wouldn't have happened without that guy up front. Well done!!! read more

We were pleasantly surprised to stumble upon this casual restaurant in Solana Beach. I ordered the grilled salmon, sweet potato fries & mixed grilled veggies and my guy had the fish & chips. The salmon was juicy and well flavored. The fish & chips was a great choice as well. The fish was nicely battered and had a good crunch. We enjoyed our food. The service wasn't bad, but it's what you would typically expect from a sit down semi fast food restaurant. You order and pay at the counter. When the food's ready, you pick it up. When you're done eating, you clear the table and throw your own trash away. It's located in a shopping plaza, so there's plenty of parking. read more

Christian is the greatest, always so very nice, have been coming here for years!!:):): my sons and I all love their grilled fish, ahi poke, great chowder, the salmon is so good too. Easy to park and so clean always! Love it! read more

Usually excellent. But lately their quality control is going downhill. Our orders often aren't exactly correct and parts of the orders are either missing or wrong. I don't mind price increases, but what's the point of ordering delivery when the wrong food is delivered? read more

Fish & Chips... Fish & Chips... Fish & Chips... if you love Fish & Chips, then you will appreciate this location. The portions are excellent and the fish was fresh. The batter was thin and crispy. The flavor was amazing. We also ordered the Traditional Fish Tacos. They were good and we will order them again. Although the menu selection is small, the items they serve are a hit. The atmosphere was nice and the staff was pleasant. The restaurant was very clean as were the restrooms. Our order was taken promptly and the food arrived quickly and with a nice presentation. read more

The poke bowl was great! Fish was fresh with quality you can taste. We got the spicy sauce and it was a great match with the bowl. The traditional wrap was alright. Not bad by any means! But nothing incredible. read more

Great food. Comes out quick. Crispy fish and chips. The chips and poke is really just chips and poke. I was expecting something closer to nachos maybe with some onion or cilantro. It's just fish. Good fish. Tasty fish. And a LOT of fish (I saved some for later). But it is just fish. read more

This small but welcoming spot is tucked away in a strip mall, but on the positive side that left a lot of available parking on a weeknight when most of the shops were closed. The salmon bowl had a generous portion of fish, well prepared, and the shrimp tacos were great. Worth a visit! Update--someone at the restaurant reached out to me almost immediately, wondering how they could have gotten 5 stars. I should add here what I told them--though the somewhat deserted weeknight strip mall offered a lot of parking, we were on vacation and it wasn't particularly scenic. BUT I hope readers don't let that stop them. The food was good and reasonably priced. If I was a local, I would definitely be back often! read more

The employees here and the food consistency is what keeps be coming back! read more
