    Mahi Burger
    Jeremy S.

    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!

    Cup of Clam Chowder
    Jane A.

    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....

    Clam chowder

    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.

    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

    Chicken Quinoa Bowl
    Marcie L.

    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.

    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!

    BATTERED FISH, CALAMARI FRITTI

    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.

    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.

    Super stoked to have found this little poke spot!…read more Had the sushi burrito with salmon, tuna, marinated tuna, spicy crab, seaweed salad and all the other fixings! Wrapped and ready to go! The burrito was huge and well worth the cost! The fish was fresh and seriously a delicious burrito! Sat outside and they have a nice little patio ( should have taken a picture) with cornhole and patio seating. Service was great! I will definitely be back to grub here again!

    We were craving Poke, but we were away from the Poké Chop . We ordered through Uber Eats to make…read moresure we received before they close the shop. Poke Chop serves Hawaiian poke bowls. You can build your own bowl or burrito. You choose the base which is either sushi rice, brown rice, salad, or burrito. Next, you choose preferred sides, then yout choices of protein. Finally sauces and toppings. They also have chicken katsu, gyoza, fried Calamari, and their specialties. We got five scoops poke bowls, fried Calamari, and macaroni salad. The poke bowl was very fresh, savory, and really delicious. They added generous quantity of base, protein and toppings. Their macaroni salad was creamy, rich and flavorful. Fried Calamari was crispy and well seasoned.We had a great dinner. My review is mainly for the food. Everything was well packe. Next time, I will stop by Poké Chop to get the whole experience.

    My favorite stop on my recent trip to the San Diego area…read more Encinitas Fish Shop was recommended by one of my local SD work colleagues. I grabbed an Uber after work on a Thursday and headed north 11 miles. As I arrived at the Fish Shop, I could smell the goodness inside and saw the line waiting to order. The restaurant is on one side, with an open bar on the other. Ordering is as simple as 1, 2, 3. Pick your fish, pick how you want to consume it (plate, sandwich, salad), and pick your sides and drink. I went with my work colleagues recommendation of a blackened sea bass sandwich with onion rings and a Marg. That choice was FANTASTIC!!! You seat yourself once you order and place the buzzer given to you by the counter person on the unit on your table. Although busy, there were still tables available (bar and restaurant, plus out front). As the NBA playoffs were on, I sat inside. Everyone working here was friendly and as I already stated... my meal was the best I had on this San Diego visit. A bonus was a gorgeous sunset just 3 blocks down from the shop. I will be back to Encinitas Fish Shop when I next visit San Diego.

    It had been a while since I'd had oysters and it sounded really good. Years ago, when I lived in…read morePacific Beach I used to go to their Thursday $1 oyster night at that location. I moved to North County and a few years later they opened Encinitas fish shop. I have been for the oysters in the past but it had been a long time. I looked it up to make sure they still had oyster night and sure enough they do. The price is now $1.25 but that still feels like a good deal. They had 4 different types to choose from. There was only about 7 people in front of me when I got in line including a family. There was an older couple ordering and it took about 20 minutes for them to complete their transaction. The rest of the line moved ok after they were done, but I probably waited about 40 minutes just to order. I ordered 3 of each kind, a dozen. Then I went to get water. They were out of ice. I sat in the window seating and waited. It took a bit, but it was a nice day so I didn't mind too much. A girl came out calling names but it was very difficult to hear her. I finally heard my name and she dropped off my oysters. I asked for more cocktail sauce and she left to get it. She brought it back but immediately left and never told me which oysters were which. I had to flag down another employee and he told me which oysters were which. In the past, I haven't liked some of the choices, but this time they had a whole different selection and I liked all of them! They were so good and fresh. I don't know why I waited so long to return. I'll definitely be back for more soon!
