Don't do it!!! I gave the girl $20 for a $4 charge and only got back change. They refused to give me the other $15 back. The manager said they would count the money in the register and return it if it was over. She made the pretext of cou ting it and refused to return the funds...She said they have a camera so I suggested she look at it. She refused. Let's face it. I was robbed. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS. read more

My favorite go-to traditional fish and chips in the valley. Fish and shrimp are nice and crispy. They have plenty of sauces available including ranch, hot sauce, cocktail sauce, tartar sauce, and ketchup. My typical order is an order of fish and chips, a side of broccoli, and some mushrooms. Delicious read more

Knock Kneed Lobster - New Operating Hours. - Seafood Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Very good fish and chips and have patronized for years when in town. But, was there at 15 minutes prior to stated closing time and they would not take order for eat in. Very disappointed after driving 1/2 hour to try and get before closing. They should honor hours open or change closing hours to accommodate taking orders up to closing time so patron has time to eat indoors of at least 1/2 hour. read more

Your typical hole in the wall establishment in the heart of phx. I ordered the three fish n chip combo plate with a side of cole slaw. The portion size was huge! I received two big pieces of fish and three little pieces to make up for a big piece. The fish was fresh and it was super crispy. The batter wasn't super seasoned but it's okay because their is a sauce bar. I love their tartar sauce and their malt liquor! Their cole slaw was soooo yummy! Must order! Can't wait to go back and eat again when I'm craving fried goodnesses. read more

Wife and i went in for Fish and Chips. First time we tried this place. We sat at the booth by the register. We thought the place was clean and the fish and chips were ok. The lady working the register. She did not have a name tag so i will describe her as the overweight latina lady working the register. We overheard some things she was saying in English and Spanish. This woman is a racist. We will not be giving them our money anymore. read more

Have driven by this spot each time I fly into Phoenix. Finally had an opportunity to try it. The ratings are mostly good, and I like the "hole-in-the-wall/ dive" spots -and this fits the bill. When I walked in -I should have left. The stench of sewer hit me at the door. It could be smelled throughout the restaurant. I ordered what is the number one item in Yelp -Fish n Chips. The fish was good -but certainly not great. The chips were mediocre at best. The fried shrooms were better than fair -but not great. I think my biggest criticism of the food was everything was fried really hard. There were only 2 redeeming factors here: 1. The meal was piping hot. 3. The portions are HUGE. Lots of food. I ate 1 piece of fish and 1 mushrooms. Are one fry. I kind of think this must have just been an "Off evening". The place was full of regulars -so maybe they are better than what I got! My experience wasn't great. I will prob try it one more time because I really wanted it to be good! read more

Best mom and pop seafood place my family and I have been going to since I was a child!

Incredibly mid food, there was almost no flavor. It's a cool little environment though. Nice staff too.

We got some fish and chips for the first friday of Lent. We liked it. We also tried the combo of fried mushrooms and squash. We liked it too. read more

I've been coming here for years , food is always good ! I love the shrimp and fried zucchini

Absolutely the place smells like sewer,definitely need to be remodeled.the fried zucchinis. They made them so fat they're not even good anymore. The fish is super small the price is very high i've been coming to this place over 40 years they also fried the fish and shrimps super hard not good at all it's hit and miss place read more

Don't let the location fool you. It is cutely decorated. I and friends meet here often! The food is great every single time. The staff is warm and inviting. Love love love this place read more

The quality of the food is not the same. Service was great. Nice place to sit down and eat. Very big place for families!!!

Worst customer service. Served food not even on menu, Then would not correct mistake. $10.75 Aztec salad consists of one piece of fish small amount of cabbage and tomato, 99% french fries. when brought to attention of staff that all looked like deer in the head lights. Nothing was done to rectify the problem, other than we were told the menus were old. The Sullivan family has built this business by treating customers right since 1947. Their current employees might be able to say they shut it down in one year (2023). R.I.P. Knock Kneed Lobster, you will be missed. read more

The food isn't bad for fried food but they are expensive for what you get. Don't expect fine dining, the restaurant is what y might expect for the area. read more

The food is consistently good and we love coming here for fish/shrimp and chips when we are in the area. Crispy and tasty without being greasy. Seems made to order and always hot. I wish they carried tartar sauce as a condiment. They have ketchup, cocktail, ranch dressing, and malt vinegar. On one visit there was a strong sewer odor that was very off putting, but was not present on our last visit. If you are a fish and chips fan, you should try it out. read more

My family and I have been going to this place for years......until now!!!! The Beeatch that took our order was very rude,unfriendly,crude and acted like she didn't want to be there!!!! We've never been treated like that in all of the years going to this place. As for the food, great tasting as always ,just the servings got a little skimpier. Prices have gone up .... But what hasn't these days!!!! The place is still the same. Environment hasn't changed,just the employees have!!!! And to that....it's bad!!!! Just too bad that places like this now show no compassion or appreciation for customers !!!! Looks like we won't be going back , there's plenty of places out there that have the respect towards customers!!!! read more

Service was steady and not so bad considering it was a Saturday 5pm and the line was out the door. Ambiance was busy !!!!! They ran out of lobster tails.... We had shrimp oysters mushrooms hush puppies and it all tasted like it used the same batter, little flavor. After a couple of bites I peeled off the batter. It's a 1 and done place for me read more

I love eating here, great fish and chips. You can great a pretty good salad too. And apple soda. I like it because it's unexpected, in the edge of Phoenix, nothing around it, kind of a gem. They have Louisiana sauce, tartar, ketchup, and cocktail sauce. read more

Found this place online after landing in Phoenix. Fish & Chips and clam strips were great but the fish tacos were a bit dry and needed lots of salsa. Great prices and selection though. read more

Best fish and chips in Phoenix. Read it slow and again, best fish and chips in Phoenix. Actually, quit reading this review and head over there and chow down! read more

I tried placing an order at 6:40pm only to be told I have to take my food to go because they close at 7pm. OK. No problem. I ordered the fried zucchini and shrimp cocktail, which cost under $20. Good deal. The fried zucchini was delicious, but the shrimp cocktail was more like cold shrimp soup. I was not given any eating utensils or napkins. They also put the fried zucchini in the bag upside down so all the grease created a hole by the time I got back to my hotel a few blocks away. Not so impressed with the lack of customer service, but the food is tasty. read more

Love eating this delicious fish with a nice light cornmeal breading. The French fries are cooked perfectly, hot and crispy. I've been to other fish places and these portions are very generous. They offer many sauces from mild to Spicy which fits anyone's palette. I enjoy the malt vinegar on mine. read more

That catfish is unmatched perfectly breaded and flavorful . Love the self serving sauce station. Would definitely recommend and go back.

Decent price for a good size portion of food. Personally I am not a fan of the batter, it leaves much to be desired of the fish. But it is a friendly providing a satisfying experience read more

Great seafood spot! My friend brought me here and I tried a few items which were delicious. Will definitely come back.

What we didn't eat! Everything was ono! Close to the airport. No frills & no fluff just good food read more

Where do I even start. This place is truly amazing. Ate here after my flight from Vegas. The Knock Kneed Lobster stands as a statue for perfect seafood and service. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very comfortable and suiting for the nautical theme of the restaurant. I feel that my words simply do not do this wonderful restaurant enough justice, and for that, you need to try this place for yourself. The hushpuppies and shrimp were truly phenomenal, and the wide variety of sauces allowed me to have the taste of the sea running through my mouth! However, I'm not a very big fan of seafood in in of itself so I will give this restaurant one star. read more

Always so good. It isn't fancy, it is just done right. Lightly breaded fish... crunchy. And the fish itself, so fresh, firm but tender (not mushy, not over cooked...just perfect...every time). The fried mushrooms...so yum. Even the French fries, that are probably from frozen, are fried perfect... crispy outside, fluffy inside. Always a treat! read more

Love this place! Been going there for many, many years. I make the long drive just to go there. Still the best fried fish and shrimp in my book. The fried zucchini has to be my favorite item! Not tiny slices but thick large slices. So delicious. The fried mushrooms are great as well. I do wish they would bring back the scallops! Never a disappointment in all the times I have been there. Knock Kneed Lobster rules! : D read more

When you just want some FABULOUS hot, fried cod. My gosh this fish is amazing. I had 1 piece of cod and I piece of shrimp. It was cooked perfectly and so delicious. Knock Kneed is pretty consistent too. They've been my go to for many many years. As a native Arizonan I know good fish is hard to find but this is the absolute BEST. Nothing fancy. For me, just great fish and shrimp at decent prices. read more

I had heard a couple people liked it. So I finally went on a Saturday. Not impressed. It was way more expensive for what I got. They don't even have real homemade tea. $14.50 for two frozen PCs of fried cod, frozen okra, the shredded cabbage with Mayo. Don't bother. I've not tried Pete's yet but it's got to be a little better. Pete's is at least cheaper read more
