    Side Green Beans and Coleslaw
    David L.

    I saw that this place recently opened and wanted to give it a try. This part of Annandale are mostly Korean restaurants. So I was pleasantly surprised that a seafood place is here. The interior is very nicely decorated. You just place the order and then wait for the food to be cooked. I went with the #12 Mix & Match combo. You get 3 fish, 3 shrimps and 3 crab cakes with 2 side orders. I went with green beans and coleslaw. First, I am truly surprised at the price. It's very reasonable. Second, the fish pieces and shrimps are very well seasoned . I think that's the key. Instead of fry have them grilled instead. Much more flavorful. I will definitely be back and try the Poboy next time. Everything is perfect and that is all one can ask for.

    #3 6 Jumbo Shrimp. Perfectly fried
    Monica W.

    SO wanted a shrimp po'boy and recommended this new spot. Immediately greeted upon entrance and while reviewing the menu I expressed that I couldn't decide between the red beans and rice and green beans and a gentleman, maybe the owner, offered me a sample. The red beans and rice came out hot and tasted so fresh. The SO stole my sample cup. The SO ordered a shrimp po'boy (comes with six jumbo shrimp) with mac and cheese as his side and I decided on six jumbo shrimp with green beans and hush puppies as my sides. I'm not sure what was here before but the interior is clean and welcoming with lots of natural light. The young man who took our order was patient and read our order back to ensure it was accurate. I appreciated the multiple hot sauce options. Our order came out fresh and hot. We did take-away and everything traveled well. All the food was good. We both enjoyed that the meal didn't weigh us down, even though it was fried, and that everything tasted "clean". I did add Old Bay to my shrimp, seasoning salt to my green beans and a touch of honey to my hush puppies. SO devoured his meal with no doctoring. We will return to checkout some of their other offerings. You can also get your seafood grilled, which is a great option.

    Ok had to try on TikTok! food looks amazing and it is!!! Clean sitting area. customer service on point from the person that took my order to the nice guy asked how is it !!!! Fish fresh got catfish not fishy taste!! The grilled fish was the best seasoning on point! Hush puppies average but good! Shrimp on point as well grilled hands down got to be the way to go. Sides Mac cheese average not homemade but not terrible. The red beans rice is sooo worth it.. one the best I have had in long time, for sure homemade. When the guy owner asked me how was it I did make comment about the Mac cheese average. Seconds later he bought me red beans and rice. Going home to my son he got try lol. Try it !!!

    Hush Puppies and fried okra

    For both fish/shrimp/crab cake combo dinners, although we paid extra for the grilled fish and shrimp, we were disappointed the crab cakes arrived deep fried. The grilled fish was very oily. The grilled shrimp and vegetables were overcooked. Although though okra was crispy and tasty, they were coated in too much breading. The hush puppies were tasty but too greasy. The pasta in the mac n' cheese was over cooked. The restaurant was clean and the staff were friendly. The southern cooking style reminds me of a competitor, Milk and Honey.

    Shrimp Salad
    Salvador O.

    So let's start off with the reviews are spot on. The building is new and extremely clean. Very great spacing for seating. The service was very welcoming and friendly. Now the food is not greasy at all. The flavors are amazing and the breading was very light. The tomatoes were fresh and not over cooked. The salad extremely fresh and shrimp and fish were seasoned perfectly. Definitely will let my friends know of this place and will come back to try more.

    Wow, what a quaint British pub in the middle of Vienna. Parking is a little tight for this area,…read morebut you can definitely find some spots in the back on a weekday. I ended up biking and there's a bike stand really close by. My friend was craving fish and chips, so we ventured out this way. Because we came on a Thursday they had a deal going where if you ordered a pie, you could get a beer for free. Of course I had to partake, so I ordered the special pie, which was a masala, chicken, curry pie, and it was quite good. A bit small for the price point but with the beer included totally worth it also because their fries are so good. I could demolish over a pound of those fries. They were thick potato and maybe the extra added bonus of having to use a glass ketchup bottle added to it. My friend and I were also taught how to properly hit the ketchup bottle to get the ketchup out by the bartender. You find the 57 on the bottle at an angle and bump you palm there that instead of hitting the bottom and hoping and praying that ketchup comes out. It actually worked or at least it was more efficient than trying to hit the bottom of the bottle upside down. I had never had a hand pumped beer before, but it was quite good. They are a warm beer rotating and it was quite good, it especially paired well with the pie or fish and chips.

    This pub had excellent food & drinks. And a whole menu for many Gin & Tonic options…read more We enjoyed curry mussels, steak& ale pie, British fries and curry chicken salad. They had several pimms cups too. Highly recommended.

Given that it wasn't crowded and it still took a while to get the food out, in a rush dinner hour, this place probably is a nightmare. But again.... it tastes good.

After placing the order, we waited about 20 minutes for food. When we looked at our order, we released we did not have the correct sauces. I went back to the counter to ask for the correct sauces, just for them to say oh we ran out of curry and mango and Sriracha aioli. I asked why didn't they let us know they didn't have the sauce and they replied back by saying, "We're running out of everything. I gave the mustard so you could have a sauce. If you do not have something, I would expect for a sign or for someone to inform the customers of a shortage. The food was bland with no flavor at all. The jalapeno chorizo fries were good until I ate the chorizo. I have never had bad chorizo until yesterday. We basically threw our food away after we spent $60 because it was so horrible accompanied with horrible service and the sauce did not help with the lack of flavor.

I have come across very few places that hit the mark, and this one definitely did. I could have cared less what else was on the menu, I walked up, ordered the fish and chips, paid, and had them in my hands in no time flat. Truly, I ordered and before the payment processed I had food in hand. Service was definitely the fastest I have had just about anywhere. After finding a seat I was able to dig in. "The Governor's" Fish & Chips, as the menu officially names it, is a gigantic piece of Atlantic cod. Expertly battered and fried to a crip. Each bite was crunchy with that flaky cod inside. Pairing it with the tartar sauce for every single bite, you will keep going until this disappeared. Their chips, more like potato wedges, are triple cooked. Extremely crispy, the ketchup is a nice addition, never was a malt vinegar person. I was definitely full and shared some of this with my colleague as so none of this would go to waste. The only thing that I did not like were the Mushy Peas. I know, the name says it all, but they could have let that little cup of those watery, bland peas off the plate. This was by far the most delicious lunches I have had in a long time.

I can on a Sunday afternoon, and the market was buzzing, but there wasn't anyone in line for this place. I got "The Governor's" Fish & Chips. It comes with "mushy peas". I asked what that was, and the gentleman literally showed me a can of green peas. So I politely asked for no peas, just an extra tartar sauce instead. My wait was only about 10 minutes and my food came out piping hot! The fish was crispy, flaky and delicious. The chips were more like potato wedges, just not as crispy, but they give you a generous portion!! The tartar sauce!??? 10/10...one of the best tartar sauces I've had. It paired perfectly with the fish, and I'm glad I had two. The meal also comes with a lemon wedge and packets of malt vinegar, which I absolutely used. And if you like hot sauce on your fish like i do, ask for packets of their "spicy sauce". Overall, a great first experience. And well worth the $19 it's priced at. Downside: Union Market has NO A/C. It was sooo hot in there, everyone was walking around sweating. My food would've been 10x better if I could've eaten comfortably.
