Food was great, tartar sauce was delicious, and they are not stingy! We went twice in a week!

I was across the street on a Friday and saw this place. Instantly, I wanted fish! The place is nice and clean, but there is NO seating whatsoever. They sell fresh fish and it looked really nice, but there was not a hint of a fishy smell in the restaurant. My fish and chips were perfection! Not too salty but seasoned just right. Hot crispy fries and the tartar sauce was to die for! 10/10, highly recommend. read more

The BEST fried fish in the city of Gardena! Their tartar sauce is amazing as well. The staff is always nice.

This is a very small, family owned fish market with attentive service. The fish is lightly coated and very lightly seasoned but the side dishes leave something to be desired. It's takeout only. The food was okay overall read more

If it's in the hood, you know it's good! I'd been searching for a "you buy... we fry" old school "no frills" fish market near my house. I found this place and my wishes were granted! It was so good, I went there three times this week. Yes, you read that right. I wanted to try everything. The must haves are the red snapper, fried oysters and fried jumbo shrimp. The runner ups are the catfish, the filet of sole and fried medium shrimp. Crispy golden batter to die for. The tartar sauce is amazing and has a kick. Mix it with the hot sauce for a different flavor. They have collard greens, fries, hush puppies and salad for the sides. All good but I wish they had rice. For desert they have sweet potato pie and cobbler. Wash it all down with a strawberry Fanta, Shasta Tiki Punch or a Cactus Cooler for the win. This place is a real find! The environment is pretty straight forward. You walk up to the counter, order and take a number. It's to go only. Rock bottom cheap prices. Nice Korean gentleman runs it with his hardworking staff. Everyone is extremely friendly! Looks like a lot of long term locals love this place. read more

I'm going to try and make this as short as possible. I review food all the time and I heard this place was pretty good and I saw the reviews. I ordered the medium fried shrimp and I was totally disappointed 1) Shrimps were extremely fried hard to the point they were no longer medium but miniature 2) They taste like they were fried in chicken grease (btw, they do cook chicken there) 3) They were not seasoned and very cold Long story short I called to complain because I took this order to go and they had an attitude. I was not going to all the way back there for a refund, but after that phone call, I had to go back and get my $16 dollars and change. The owner was in denial. I would never go back there again !! Never tolerate disrespect, horrible service, and terrible food from anyone or any place no matter who it is. read more

The food is always delicious, it's perfect for me because it's convenient and close to my job as well....

The tilapia and shrimp is very good! However the catfish has a very fishy taste. The red snapper is sometimes tough, and the sandab is cut in half and sometimes it appears that there's a small pinkish strip that's close to the cavity. There is a barrier/divider where you have to bend down and make your order. And the owner isn't friendly but the workers are nice. And the wait time is reasonable. read more

This is my GO TO spot for fried seafood. They do not miss!!!! The prawns and or jumbo shrimp, catfish fillet and oysters are my standard order. read more

Anytime I'm in the area, this is my spot for fried fish and oysters!!! My barber recommended this spot so anytime I see him I go see them! It's always fresh; service is always good; and I drive in from Orange County so it's worth the drive read more

I ordered fish and fries, but both came out very dark and tasted like they were cooked in old grease. I asked the owner if everything was fresh, and he assured me it was. When I called to express my concern, he was extremely rude and dismissive. Instead of offering a real solution, he told me to bring the food back--even after I explained that I live in another county. His response was to "put it in the fridge and bring it back when you can." Very disappointing experience, both in terms of food quality and customer service. I won't be returning. read more

Great service, great food! J's Fish is my one and only fish spot. The only thing the could improve is offer cocktail sauce with shrimp.

I have a usual fish spot, but J fish definitely comes a close second. The quality is good and their seasoning is top notch. Better to call in as it could take extra long to get your order. Parking lot is super small and full of pot holes. Be careful going in and out. Never tried their sides. Just the fries. The specials all have fries. A bit pricier froM what I remember read more

A friend recommended this place to me and he said he never tried a "you buy, we fry" type of restaurant. It is located in a strip mall between a barber shop and another store. I went at night and it's very dark in the parking lot. I was greeted by a friendly and helpful gentleman. The menu is pretty straight forward and they have different side dishes (e.g., fresh fries, collard greens, hush puppies, potato salad and macaroni salad) and the combinations come with a roll. I ordered a side of 4 Jumbo Shrimp on the side. The first thing is the batter or coating on the fish and shrimp was very flavorful and crunchy. The fish and shrimp were fresh and the shrimp was properly cleaned. The hush puppies were fresh and did not taste like frozen ones I've had at other restaurants. The potato salad was fresh and tasty and I asked for a side of pickles, hot sauce, ketchup and tartar sauce. The whole dinner was so delicious and reasonably priced. I will definitely come back and look forward to trying out the greens and macaroni salad. Don't let the outside or surrounding neighborhood fool you. Some of the best food is in unassuming places. read more

Can't believe I've never reviewed this place! I have been coming here for sometime now, and typically it's pretty good. For a shrimp and fish combo with fries it's about $14.00. The shrimp could stand to be a little bigger but still pretty filling. The star for me is the tartar sauce it's soooooo good, I was a little disappointed this trip they didn't put any in the bag. The food is always fresh so it does take some time to prepare, If you can always call ahead or be prepared for a wait. There is tons of parking as there is several other businesses in the same parking lot. read more

Went there for the first time at around 1130 am . I believe in getting or buying seafood in the early part of the day. I ordered a Family meal letter B because it has a jar of oysters. I picked a combo Sole and catfish per his recommendation . No tilapia for me. Waited outside until it was almost ready. Took it home and had it for lunch . The oysters taste fresh enough. The shrimp was not overcook, the fish were soft too. I like their tartar sauce but mixed some ketchup to have something abit sweet. I like it ove But the second time I went before closing in the pm and quality wasn't as good . So I will only go there during lunch time read more

J Fish Market - Fish. Shrimp. And oysters with a bed of fries. Oh yeah don't forget the macaroni salad. - Seafood Markets Near Me - Gardena, California

Great respectable service, fast, fresh tasting, reasonably priced. Have been a customer for over 10years .

Best tartar sauce ever. It should be bottled and sold in quantities. Food tastes great and the price is a bit less than most fish markets. Prices fur all budgets. They got wings too that got that flavor. Owner is there in the store taking orders. He has great customer service and everyone respects the business. Never ever been to a fish market and did not hear anyone complain. Not one time in all the years I've been going. read more

Everything is good! Service is super friendly, call up there and got my food in under 20 mins. Very fresh and delicious!! Highly recommend the shrimp and fries with the tartar sauce *chefs kiss* 1000/10 for me read more

Tried Bates before this, and that was quite underwhelming, so I was a bit skeptical going in since this one has fewer reviews, but I gotta say, I was pleasantly surprised. I had the 3pc fish (catfish) + 7 medium shrimp and fries for just over $10. The wait wasn't too long either at ~8 minutes (compared to 20 minutes at Bates). Either way, probably best if you call ahead of time. The fish was very good, as was the shrimp. Both were flavorful and I was able to appreciate the ingredients more than Bates. The guy behind the counter was SUPER friendly and recommended me the catfish or the sole. I'll try the sole next time. J Fish gives steak fries unlike Bates's crinkle cut fries, and these were great and well seasoned. The star of the meal here, as the other reviews say, is definitely the in-house tartar sauce which takes the meal to another level. It's slightly different from regular tartar sauce in that it's a bit...peppery? Either way, the seafood and the fries taste amazing dipped in here. Given that J Fish is closer to my house, cheaper AND tastier than Bates, I'll be coming here again for sure. Oh and the inside doesn't smell like you're sniffing Aquaman's thong at point blank, so that's a plus too. read more

The food is always fresh and tasty.I always call in advance for my food and they have it ready on my arrival.i love this place

The food is prepared in a timely matter and I only order the sol filet. I'm not very impressed by the shrimp. Best to order over the phone ahead of time, you won't want to wait inside due to the raw fish smell, lacking of seats, and odd setting. I've lost my main place: Johnny's Fish Market on El Segundo and Western because they've closed. I've been trying to find a similar taste since then. read more

They got mad just because i wanted them to redo my fish but someone over cooked it and it taste like sand/dirt. I came here a lot of times it was hit or miss sometimes it was good sometimes it wasn't. I never complained but this time i had to take it back he got mad and gave me a refund and told me not to come back because I was the only one that complained. YOUUUUUUU MESSED UP TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY i wasn't even complaining I just wanted him to do two pieces over. read more
