Delicious! crispy batter on the outside soft on the inside, great people working there, super friendly and welcoming, like visiting my uncle's house who makes the best seafood in town. Will definitely come back to try their shrimps and scallops read more

It's been a while since I've been here, and I usually really enjoy their fried fish, but this visit was a bit disappointing. The texture and fry on the fish were on point ,crispy and cooked well but the fish itself lacked flavor in every bite. The tartar sauce was okay, and the vinegar was just average, but overall it still satisfied my fish and chips craving. Hoping this was just an off day because I've enjoyed this spot in the past. read more

I have been here many times. I love the crunch on the fish and shrimp. The batter isn't really seasoned, but adding malt vinegar, cocktail sauce and/or tartar sauce makes it taste great. The fries are really good as well. The owner(s) are so nice and welcoming. read more

In town for work and craving authentic fish n chips. Found Mr. Fish n Chips thanks to Yelp and we were on our way. Located in a plaza with several businesses, plan a few extra minutes to secure parking. I walked in and was immediately greeted by Mr. Sam, the owner. Really kind man, answered my questions as I was undecided on what to order. We decided on the three piece fish and chips with a side of jumbo shrimp and a two piece fish and chips and a side of coleslaw. The fish portions are big, we could have shared one meal...leftovers for the win! Steak fries and jumbo shrimp were delicious and the coleslaw could put KFC out of business. I chatted with Mr. Sam briefly on the way out and told him he will see me again. Thank you for feeding us, Mr. Sam! read more

What a great find! My Mom (from England) visits me every month & is always on the hunt for a good fish & chips nearby. Mr. Fish and Chips does NOT disappoint! the fish was a nice size, battered well, crispy, & every bite was delicious. The fries were great as well. Service was excellent, the owner was nice & exchanging stories with my Mom. A very Mom & Pops feel to the shop, I'll certainly be back! Parking lot can get a bit busy read more

This is one of my top five places to go for Fish and Chips in San Diego. It is what they specialize in and they sure know how to do it right. The owner is nice and friendly and provides good service. It is a small restaurant and you have the option of eating inside or on the patio. No reservations and seating can be limited so we usually go after lunch rush hour or early dinner. The fish is always hot and crispy and the fries are yummy and well seasoned. What I like about the fish is it has a light batter. We order the cole slaw which complements the fish. They also offer shrimp, oyster, clams and chicken strips on the menu. I will have to try the shrimp one of these days and deviate from the yummy crispy fish. They offer condiments like Vinegar and Tarter sauce to go with the fish. Definitely a place to check out if you like Fish and Chips. read more

My partner and I absolutely adore this place! It's a great mom and pop shop with loving, exciting people, tasty food, great portions, and a welcoming, warm, and cozy atmosphere. We always go for the fish and chips. The fish is a huge cut of cod, it's always crispy on the outside and nice, juicy, and flakey on the inside. The steak fries are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I love fries more on the crispy side so that's great for me! My partner loves the tartar sauce so we always get extra. I find it quite tasty! They always cook things fresh so plan for a bit of time to wait but honestly, it's very worth it! It's better there but we've taken it back home before and it's still amazing! Can't wait to go back! read more

Mr. Fish and Chips is aptly named! I came on a Saturday afternoon with one of my friends who had been wanting to check it out. We walked in and proceeded to the ordering counter. We looked at the menu and the 2 piece seemed like it would be filling for one person. We each ordered that and a root beer. The owner behind the counter was efficient and multitasking as he went from frying fish to taking out orders and then back to frying. There's one longer table inside and another smaller one. There were more tables outside but we wanted to stay out of the wind. We waited at the longer table since the smaller one was taken. There were a few others who sat there too but as it seems most people order to go, they would receive their orders and leave. We shortly after got our food. I'm not normally a fan of tartar sauce but this one is worth trying! They also had condiments on the table like the vinegar and ketchup. My first impression when I took a bite was that it was slightly more breaded than I would like but as I ate it, it worked for me. It's hard to find a good fish and chip place nowadays. I live in the Bay Area though so I'd only be able to come here when I'm visiting. That being said, it was a lot of fish and fries and I was more than stuffed by the time I got up with a to go box of leftover fries. The fish was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The fries were also crispy and plentiful. The owner is active and would ask people if they needed boxes, open doors when he could to let people in and out and also delivered the food to each table. Parking is easy here as it's part of a strip mall. I suggest trying this place out if you are in the area and wanting fish and chips. I know I'll be back if I'm ever in the area! read more

Absolutely delicious fish. Been coming here for years and Mr Fish and Chips never disappoints.

After traveling overseas. I've found a new found love and craving for Fish and Chips. Have tried multiple places since being back and unfortunately I could not find a place that satisfied my cravings until.... Last night. I've seen this place on tik tok and yelp reviews but I live in Spring Valley and it's quite a drive. I happened to be in the area and decided to give it a try. While ordering I seen a beer that caught my attention because I've never seen it before so I tried it and it was really good. (Pictured) unfortunately I didn't get a picture of the food but it was absolutely amazing. Everything I've been looking for. Taste, Texture and they were good size. I ordered Two piece fish and chips and Two Jumbo shrimp. Hands down Best place thus far and I will definitely be making the drive!! read more

Didn't realize we have a really good fish and chips shop in Claremont. Have passed by this place so many times, but decided out of nowhere to try it out. Solid fish, solid fries, solid prices for what you get. Service felt personal and friendly. The tartar sauce is so good. Did not realize I could even tell good tartar sauce, but this stuff is amazing. read more

Great prices and portions. Always friendly and efficient. I have spent a lot of time in England and this is a real chippy!

Great service and food! Even the ambiance is nice inside, there are two medium tables. I ordered and sat at an outside table- people watching (it's located next to a Vons and many other businesses). The food is great. I had the 1 fish n chips and clam strips. Both were delicious. Honestly I should have ordered 2 fish strips. It was so tasty and fresh!!!!! The batter was crispy, and at just the perfect ratio of crisp to moist tender flavorful cod filet. - not like other places where they over batter. I will be back. Most importantly the service was awesome!!!! Super friendly! Thank you for being in San Diego! read more

One of the best fish and chips spots in San Diego. But what makes it better is the service here. Top notch service from the owner. He's usually taking the order, making the food and serving customers. Even checking up on us during our time there. The fish & chips are super crispy & always comes out fresh. The portions are large and it's so simple. We also get the fried shrimp with chips and they're huge. The fries are like steak fries and always comes out hot & fresh. It's a small shop in between other restaurants. It's very simple decor and limited seating. Always come back here when I'm craving fish & chips. read more

Large crispy goodness fried right when you order. Big thick steak fries treated the same way. An awesome family restaurant. Consistently.

Delicious! This is the best fish and chips Ive ever had. Crispy and moist, Fresh large pieces of cod. The chips are traditionally cut. Coleslaw can be ordered as a side, it looked great although I didnt order any. Service was friendly and cheerful. The prices are a bit high for me, but worth it. read more

Honestly I wasn't sure what to expect when we visited the store. I have been waiting to try their Fish and Chips for a long time, yet never gotten the chance to. We finally came here one night and the store was quite empty. We decided to order to go although we would love to eat there but the store seemed pretty small inside. The menu is very simple, just like the store name. We had 3 fish with large fries and were completely surprised when handed two huge boxes. Despite we took it home, the food was still very delicious! The fish was fresh with nice batter. Love the sauces that was included, highly recommend trying the vinegar. The fries was also very good. Big chunky fries that fill us up nicely. I would come back again. read more

Mr. Fish and Chips - 3 fish with large fries - Fish & Chips Near Me - San Diego, California

AWFUL. Just awful. Stopped by this place based on Yelp reviews. When I walked in I immediately noticed how filthy it looked, and noticed I was the only one in there at 6 pm on a Saturday. The menu posted online is NOT what they currently serve. No fried scallops, no fried clams, no fried zucchini or onion rings. Fish and chips and fried shrimp ONLY. Ordered one fish & chips and one fried shrimp for $40. Everything tasted like old oil, and the fish was not fresh. Ended up throwing out. This place is seriously on its last leg and needs to close. Just gross! read more

Excellent Fish and Chips and they get the tartar sauce right ! Friendly crew that produces consistently quality product ! Thanks

Some of the best fried fish in town. Crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. They are super friendly here too. Seating is very basic. Come for the food, not for the ambience. I didn't have the chips or coke slaw so I can't comment on those, but I'll be back for sure! read more

Best Fish and chips in San Diego. The owner is very warm and welcoming and very accommodating. Been going to this place for over 25 yrs. Thanks for staying real. read more

Really good fish and chips. Nothing extravagant just good tasting crispy juicy fish and crispy soft middle chips. A plus is they give you enough Tatar sauce for the meal, I hate when places don't give you enough sauce. Another thing is if purchasing to go the pack it in a carton that allows the food to breathe and not get soggy. read more

Been coming here for over 20 years. I came here when it was a small shop back in 1996. Food has not changed one bit. Still best fish & chips place in SoCal. read more

Great food and service. Cole slaw tasted like my home made slaw. Owner was super nice.

Our first time grabbing food here and I had to leave a review. I think the person manning the register is the owner and he was kind and personable. I don't think I gave any indication that we had never been there..but he asked us how we were and made the statement of it being our first time. It's obvious he talks with his customers and has a great memory. I'm thinking when we come back, he would remember us While taking our order, he asked if my four year old would like some water. Then when he brought out our food, he gave my kids a couple of small pies. Things like that stick out to me, especially as a mom. It really pulled at my heart that he went out of his way to be kind to my kids. Now, on to the food! At first, I thought it was a little pricey until I saw everything. The fish are HUGE! There were a decent amount of chips/fries and were delicious! We got the 8 fish family meal with a side of zucchini. Perfect crispness. We were also given a good amount of ketchup, ranch dressing, tartar sauce, and malt vinegar without having to ask. We'll be back again. Keep it up with both the great food and amazing customer service! read more

Website says they closed at 7pm. At 6:15pm, I walked in and told it was already closed. Adjust your hours please

The owner is super nice. Very efficiently running the entire place by himself on a Friday evening! Fast service - about 14 people ahead of us and some Door Dash ready to be picked up; still only took about 15-20 minutes to get our food. Classic fish&chips done to perfection - nice and crispy breading, not overdone. Takes my back to the old "H.Salt" days! Yumm! read more

This was my first time here and there was a line at the door waiting for it to open and I can see why. The fish and chips were so delicious and a great price but also the service was absolutely awesome! read more

Fried Fish stick $5.50 has been approved by the offspring. This alone will make me come back. The French fries wedges aka chips were minimal and barely touched, not worth $6. Personally, I like the seasoning and taste of their fried fish stick and tartar sauce. Happy to find a place that's approved by all the family. read more

If you're looking for a good fish and chips place in the Balboa area, this place is worth trying. Their fish tastes fresh and it's big pieces. The batter has the perfect crispy consistency, and it does not overwhelm the fish flavor. If there is one thing that I would wish they'd put a little bit of effort in is the atmosphere and the ambiance of the place. It could use a little bit of touch and setting it up to look more inviting. If you don't care about the atmosphere and just want good food, this place is worth trying. read more

Delicious! Their fried fish is not oily and delicious! Very generous with the tartar sauce and condiments. My kid loves the fried shrimps too. Owner is super nice. This is our favorite place for fish and chips! read more

Place is very clean and has ample room. Food is great at a reasonable price, and served pretty fast. The owner is very friendly.

This guy uses an outdoor blower to clean the INSIDE of Mr. Fish and Chips, (blowing the dirt all over the inside of his own restaurant and kitchen to the outside), creating a very unpleasant dining experience for costumers in the adjacent restaurant... DURING THE DINNER RUSH. I would never eat at the Fish n Chip place with the current health and safety practices. And honestly, I'm not sure I would ever eat out doors at the Japanese restaurant again. Im totally grossed out. read more

The owner is extremely nice and their shop really owns up to one of the best fish and chips shop out there. A definite stop if you're in San Diego read more

Great food for takeout! The fish always tastes so fresh! I really enjoy the food every time I come here
