This food truck is amazing! I happened by it because someone needed to go to Kaiser to pick up something. I was feeling really nauseated that morning and the smell of fish from the truck really helped ease the nausea, so I decided to buy something. I didn't catch the server's name, but he was really friendly and helpful. I noted there was shrimp on the menu, which was a bit concerning given my allergy and already starting with nausea, so the server did his best to minimize cross contamination even though I said it was ok (since it would be impossible since everything is fried in the same oil). Since I was willing to take the chance on the allergy, I didn't expect the server to still be that careful with the food since I did mention the allergy wasn't too severe (and wouldn't matter if he avoided more contamination because of the oil). All in all, super friendly guy who did his best to make sure I enjoyed my food, so it was super appreciated. read more

First time here. Shrimp and fries were excellent and freshly prepared. We also had the Catfish and it was equally as good. Owner was friendly and answered questions. FWIW the tartar sauce was awesome. Definitely worth following on social media to see where he is each day! read more

To whom it may concern, Twas a beautiful day in a land we like to call "SoCal" when my 86 year old sister needed a ride to her doctor's appointment. I must venture in my wagon train far from mission viejo and embark on a large and arduous journey to a land far away known as riverside. I arrived with my husband of 63 years Harold hankering for some fried seafood. We stumbled across this wonderful restaurant. The cat fish nuggets were to die for, just like my mother used to make. Harold enjoyed the fried lobster luckily he was paying today. LOL(my grandson told me about this lol thing). Thankyou so much for the amazing food and excellent service. I will be back with my gals from bingo! Until then toodaloo Yours truly, Maribeth read more

Had a fish taco and chicken strips tonight. The fish taco are on 2 corn tortillas with cabbage, pico, and his house sauce. His fish is awesome so the taco was great. 2 of these with a side of fries and a DIPA would be fantastic. The chicken strips are good, it's the same batter as the fish so they're not like the breaded ones you see everywhere else. The chicken's juicy and the batter's properly seasoned. His spicy house sauce added a perfect lil kick. And he hand breads them so they're nice and fresh. read more

Cannot handle a little friendly competition with other vendors. Resorted to getting other vendors shut down. If you had to do that in order to get customers, maybe focus on better food or something. read more

Just tried Mikey's fish fry!! BOMB!!! We loved it!! And Mikey is super accommodating. Everything appears squeaky clean and the FISH IS DELISH!!! We Will Be Back!!! read more

Found him on a whim fish tacos were SUPERB! And his Cajun Shimp was chef's kiss Mikey knows what he's doing!

This is my first time trying food from a food truck and I wasn't disappointed! I came here after work with my coworkers after seeing the food truck parked by Target. I'm glad they were parked by Target because I feel safer stopping at this area versus the gas station area I would usually see them at. We each got a plate and I had got the shrimp only platter because I'm not usually a big fan of fish. For the shrimp only plate it came with 10 fried shrimps, the seasoned crinkle cut fries, house made sauce, and a lemon for $23. Wow the batter and seasoning on the fried shrimp was delicious! I could taste Cajun seasoning in it. It had the right amount of spice and they were crispy. The shrimp is a pretty good size as well! I also enjoyed the house made sauce they have. The sauce had a nice tart and creaminess to it that made it compliment the shrimp and fries so much. The fries had some seasoning on them and were a thick crinkle cut. They were crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Even though I don't like fish, seeing the way my coworkers were enjoying their fried fish made me want some, so I may try it the next time I see the food truck! read more

We've been wanting to check out this fried fish truck for awhile and finally did yesterday. We got catfish tacos and a shrimp plate. Fish tacos were delicious. 1 tortilla and that pico de gallo on top was very flavorful. That shrimp plate was perfectly seasoned. Cajuny and paired with fries really hit the spot. So good, we will be back for more read more

Mikey knows his fish. Lots of choices of wild fish. He urged the sole and I know to go with the chef's suggestion. I was a bit worried because it's pretty easy to overwhelm sole with batter. Nope! Perfect, thin, crispy, lightly seasoned batter. I had it with the shrimp, which also were perfect. My husband had the catch of the day, striped bass, also excellent. The fries have a light dusting of seasoning. I had Mikey's sauce and my husband had the tartar sauce, both excellent. It's a food truck so the best thing about the ambience is that it was a one minute drive home so I could eat it while perfectly crispy. read more

Fast service, super friendly. This is my second time coming. The first time I ate it so fast couldn't take a picture. I ordered tilapia and shrimp. Super flaky, seasoned well. The fries were like any regular fries. He has a special sauce that is kind of spicy but taste good. My friend ordered catfish (not pictured) she initially did not like the way the food looked thinking her fish was beer battered and soggy. But nope, she loved it and not was it soggy. I will be back. Thank you read more

Sancho told me about this fish spot. So drove out to Riverside for the day. I'm very picky eater and especially about my fry'd fish, This place is so good it's cooked to order I had the cod fish and shrimp dish little heat but the batter is crunch, flavorful, fish was tender moist and let's say I ate everything so fast that I forgot to take some pics of my plate. Who would of thought that this little trailer could prepare and cook like a brick and mortar place.. We will definitely be back to try another dish. read more

Food was tasteless and soggy. Such a shame because I was looking forward to this meal and starving. The guy serving looked like he wished he could be anywhere else, barely looked us in the eyes. read more

That's some darn good Southern fish fry there! But it's not a house. More like a tiny house on wheels. Yep. A bright red food truck. The best advice I can give is, come earlier in the day, if at all possible. We didn't; it was an hour and a half before closing. So, there were several of their fishie choices already bought out, much to my dismay. That included the tilapia, fillet of sole, and catfish. Oh, ok. If it's tofu you're after, you might still be in luck! So then, we made matters worse for anybody after us by snatching up the last two cod+shrimp dinners, which, btw, were superb. In fact, I'd dare say, far better than 90% of the restaurants in the area. The batter is light, crunchy, and lightly spicy. The fish was quite fresh. The shrimp was plump and tasty. The fries, delicious. The only thing I felt was missing was a little cup of salad or slaw, because they don't do salad or any greens for that matter. There is no place to sit down, and you probably wouldn't want to anyway because this location is at a busy, dusty intersection in a dumpy, abandoned gas station landscaped with a fine collection of weeds. So save your ambiance expectations for the fish fry places that aren't as good. Regardless, this little food truck was a little gem and exactly the kind of place I would want to return. read more

Iv been following Mike's fry house on ig forever, finally got the opportunity to try them out on my way home from big bear (I arrived beyond hungry). Once I got to the order window I did not know what to order, everything on the menu sounded amazing. I was recommended the swai and shrimp and it was delicious. Fresh, flaky and crunchy the best combination. I recommend ordering an extra of their special sauce! My order did take 20 mins so be prepared to wait and they do give you a call/text when your order is ready. Plenty of time to walk around target or order food at another truck. read more

Everything was great! Food is amazing. Service was prompt. Owner is keeps everything super clean. Best fish in Town! read more

They ran out of sole so we got the cod and it delicious!!! The batter was crunchy, light and seasoned well! I would definitely visit them again! I really enjoyed this fish especially because the batter was not thick! Sometimes the batter is so thick and you bite into the fish and get a glob or gooey not throughly cooked batter....YUCK!!!! I suggest arriving as early as possible to prevent them selling out! Service was great, they take Apple Pay. Ambiance...well it's outdoors so it was cold outside so we ordered and waited in the car but this row of food trucks is quite popular! There were quite a few folks browsing the row of different trucks! read more

The flavor is amazing but the presentation was poor. Maybe it was a busy night but I feel like the fries portion was so poor. No dipping sauces were included. Not giving up on you guys! Will try again and give them the benefit of the doubt. read more

I now have a new favorite for some good food!!! I need to try more things, but the fried shrimp with the "secret sauce" is an amazing combination! I love the seasoned "Del Taco" fries too! I'm a big fan of putting malt vinegar on my fries, but the type of seasoning and the amount of it, was perfection! THIS IS NOT BEER BATTERED FISH!!! I personally cannot stand beer battered fish, am more of a UK fish and chips bloke. I don't know what Mikey is doing, but that fish batter is awesome ! RECOMMEND!!! read more

My review for Mikey's Fry house is simply....Damn!!! That's some durn good food, and being from Louisiana I think I have the expertise to give my certified opinion. You may not get an epic amount of food, but it's still comparable to other places, only that Mikey's food is better tho! read more

10/10 recommend. Mike was professional, friendly, and made us feel like family. He asked if we'd been there before and when we said no he explained how he runs things, how to order, and how long the wait would be. He stands behind his food and guarantees that it's fresh and made to order. I am so skeptical about food trucks, but I have been eyeballing this place since I found him on Instagram. We are so glad we gave him a try. The food was fresh, perfectly fried and perfectly seasoned. He made sure we were completely satisfied before we left. If you want some good fried fish, I haven't found anything that beats this place. We will absolutely be returning. Thanks Mike for a good experience and great food! read more

The food was excellent and fresh it stayed hot until i got home. I had the Catfish and fries, the service was great and friendly.

Well, hot dang. That is some good fish. My husband got the Swai and fries and I "wasn't hungry." That was a mistake. The batter is similar to how the Brits do it, but flavored like the South. The fish was very, very fresh. The grease it was fried in was also very clean tasting. Hopefully, we can hit them up on the way out tomorrow. read more

I am completely at fault. My last review was of another restaurant I went to. The fish was exceptionally seasoned. I only wished I ordered more. I have been looking for the location without luck, but I will keep at it. read more

Soooo good! We have been wanting to try Mikey's Fry House for awhile, and boy am I glad we did! We caught them at like 9pm tonight and we got great service and amazing food! We got the salmon, catfish, and lobster with Swai! All the fish was shrimp was delicious, the batter was perfect! And the fries! The perfect crunch and seasoning! Their special/secret sauce SLAPS! Great experience and great food. 12/10 would recommend and definitely will be back! I wanted to take pictures but we scarfed it down read more

We ordered fish tacos, a shrimp plate and 3 swai plates for dinner tonight. The food is always delicious and their house sauce always brings all the delicious flavors together. We will definitely be back. read more

10 out of 10. Service is amazing. Food is amazing. Good ambience. The fried shrimp is my favorite! Has a good amount of options. The flavor of the fish and the fry's is insane! Love the sauce as well! Definitely a favorite! read more

I wanted to try this for quite sometime. I finally got the chance and was disappointed. The food was delicious, but small portions for the price. I ordered cod fish and shrimp plate for $26. I received 4 shrimps and 3 small pieces of fish and fries. It looks like he cut the cod fish in half. I feel like I was ripped off. I will not be back.. read more

My son and I shared the salmon and shrimp the day I stopped at this awesome truck. I also purchased the catfish nugget plate but couldn't eat that day. I warmed it up in the air fryer and Bam amazing Mikey is a great guy read more

A friend told me about this food truck since she knew I was a foodie and I'm so glad she did! The fried fish here is so delicious. I love the Cajun seasoning Mikey adds to the fish, shrimp, and fries. It has such good flavor and pairs well with his secret dipping sauce. I want the secret dipping sauce recipe lol. So far I've had their Swai, dover sole, cod, lobster, & of course the shrimp. All delicious, but my favorite is the swai and dover sole. All cooked to order so it can 10-15 minutes for your order to be ready. He's usually open Friday through Sunday, but sometimes he's open on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, & Thursdays. Follow him on instagram at @mikeysfryhouse to see when he's open, the hours, and the location he's at. He's usually off of La Sierra Ave. & Magnolia Ave. but also off of Tyler St. in back of the Target parking lot. You can spot him with his bright red trailer and his business feather flag right by it. Give it try and see that this is the best fried fish in Riverside! read more

We are extremely picky about eating fish, especially from a food truck. But let me tell you, we have eaten this fish fry many times, and we've never been disappointed! There are so many options, and everything is always so fresh. I always get the Swai, but my fiancé has tried just about everything on the menu. The portions are great for the price, and the containers are compostable (which is refreshing because you don'tsee that very often in food trucks). The homemade sauce is delicious, and we love the cajun seasoning on the fries. The owner is always nice, and his food truck is always immaculately clean! He serves a pretty large area in and around Riverside, so if you see this bright red, black and yellow food truck around, do yourself a favor and try it! So good! read more

Great service and amazing food! I've been here a couple times and it never disappoints

I recently tried Mikey's for the first time and was impressed with the taste and speed of how fast my 3 orders came out. The trailer is nicely painted but Mikey himself is a no frills kinda guy obviously about his business and I truly can understand that part and I will continue to buy my fried fish and chips from him. read more

They provided friendly service and excellent food! I highly recommend this food truck. I had my food to go and ate it with spicy ketchup- mixed ketchup with hot sauce #YUM! I ate the lobster, catfish, and shrimp and am looking forward to having it AGAIN :) read more

NOT YET really good fried fish or shrimp I bite into a Shrimp an water came out whats that about!!!!

This place is the goods! Got Dover, shrimp and fries. Batter light and crispy not oily. Batter is a sort of a Cajun beer batter and was pleasantly surprised while driving home it didn't get soggy. When I went it wasn't crowded but possibly could be since there are other trucks around. Secret sauce is good as well. You will end up dipping everything you bought in it trust!!! Located on the street just outside of the side of Target. Prices are pretty reasonable as well. Looking forward to the fried lobster which definitely caught my eye. Glad I finally went and will be happy to continue to go! read more
