    To-go 1 piece fish
    Karly W.

    This is by far, my favorite and the best fish and chips restaurant in Sacramento. I can't say enough good things about this place! The most fresh, hot and delicious fish and chips I can find! If I ever have a craving I come straight here. Their batter is so light and crispy, and the fish is easily of the highest quality. I also love how they only use 100% vegetable oil! The quality really stands out. Their tartar sauce is reaaally good too and this is coming from someone who doesn't really care for tartar sauce in general! 5 stars My to-go order was ready in less than 10 minutes. I called it in and it was ready by the time I got there 8 mins later. The restaurant itself is spotless and you can tell they keep everything in perfect condition. Everyone here is so friendly and nice! You're always greeted with a warm smile upon arrival. Overall, I highly recommend this place to everyone

    I'm finally back in Sacramento after a long work road trip to Salt Lake City. We just drove down from the Carson City area, so that wasn't too far. Dropped off the rental Suburban SUV and got my own car back. I left it at a friend's house,so me and her are off for some lunch. I just had this urge for some fish and chips. She said this Ocean Fish and Chips was good, so we came here. It's not exactly located right off any freeway or anything, but that's what GPS is for, plus she knew where it was. There's plenty of parking in the little strip mall. Inside is quite nice, not super up scale like some places. You just stand in line and place you order. The menu is up on the wall. The cashier was friendly and efficient. We ordered two orders of the 3 piece fish and chips for $16.00 each plus and order of the onion rings to share for $6.00. I paid since she store my car for almost 2 weeks. The prices are reasonable for these days. The food came out in a short time. I think the fish is pollock. It was all hot and smelled good, not fishy at all. Malt vinegar and salt is the way I like my fish and chips. We tasted the onion rings first, yes, very crisp and hot. They were the puffy battered type, not the crunchy cornmeal kind, like at Applebee's. The fish and fries (chips) were very good too. The fish had the right amount of crunch and crispy batter and not over cooked inside. Fries were sort of just fries. We had a good lunch and conversation here at Ocean Fish and Chips, I'd recommend it. Just as good as most of the other fish and chip places in the Sacramento area.

    Family business with great customer service; staff greeting all the regulars and welcoming in everyone! The fish is fresh and crispy to-order, no wet spots, nice and light and crispy. Delicious! Come in and seat yourself; they bring your order out to you, as well as the sauces to fit your order--cocktail, tartar, ketchup, ranch. We have tried other spots but come here every week. Best fried cod in Sac!

    This is our favorite go-to fish & chips spot in Sacramento. We usually visit at least once a week. Staff are friendly and welcoming. The store is clean and well put together. Prices are reasonable. And the food.... They have quite a few options; cod, red snapper, or catfish, popcorn shrimp, prawns, oysters, clam chowder, clams. Fries, hush puppies, cole slaw, fried zucchini, battered & fried mushrooms, & onion rings. They also make a great fish sandwich, hamburgers, & teriyaki. Everything is served fresh & piping hot. This place hits all the marks, food, customer service & atmosphere. You will not be disappointed.

    Great mom and pop spot for fish and chips, burgers and teriyaki plates. The fish was highly recommended by people to my mom on Facebook so when we had rented a van for the weekend this was #1 on her list. The fish was super crispy and full of that awesome white meat that's flaky and flavorful. Prawns here were also really good. The fries paired well with the our dishes. Had tried the krabby patty and thought it was super good, squeezing the lemon on it made the flavor even better. Their daily specials are customer friendly, not only for the pricing but for the portions as well. Many people were coming in and out of the restaurant well we sat and ate.

    Ocean Fish & Chips is a great little spot if you're craving fish and chips. The fish always tastes fresh, the service is quick, and it's a clean, convenient place to grab a meal. The customer service is always good, and you can tell the owners genuinely care about their business and making sure everyone has a good experience. One thing I really appreciate is that they change their fryer oil regularly, and I think that makes a difference in the quality of the food. I don't eat a lot of fried food, but when I do, this is one of the places I treat myself to. If you're in the area, it's definitely worth checking out. Enjoy!

    I went on a weekday around 11:30ish. I was greeted as soon as I approached the ordering counter. Each of the 12 tables had customers enjoying burgers, clam chowder, fish and chips and a variety of their other menu items. There were a lot of conversations and laughter. I ordered the 2-piece fish and chips with cocktail sauce to go. My order was completed within 5 mins or so. All the staff were friendly and very personable. They were working to fulfill orders and clear tables as soon as they were available because customers were coming in at a very fast pace. My 2-piece fish and chips was huge. It was enough for 2 meals. The fish was excellent. Minimal batter and a nice crunch! The fries were good also. Something people may not notice....the to-go bags have venting holes (so that your fish stays crunchy). Excellent place to go when you want fish and chips. Atmosphere is lively and staff are personable and friendly. I will definitely return.

    We waited in line a little before noon. Our food came out in about 10 mins. We ordered the 9 piece family meal. The fish was good and better with tartar sauce and ketchup. The fries were fresh and lightly seasoned. The onion rings were handmade and were really good. The lady at the register as well as the man customer service was Amazing.

    My mother and I got a six piece meal to share with the coleslaw. For what you got it was a good deal. The service was excellent. The people were friendly and quick. The shop was neat and tidy and welcoming. Now the fish. The pieces were large and I enjoyed them. My mother needed more seasoning for hers. We still each ate two and brought two home for later. The coleslaw was great with a little horseradish bite to it. Definitely a good place to eat. I heard good things about their mushrooms from another customer and will have to try those next time

    Best fish and chips in town!! OmG! If you want a good crunch fish batter then this is the place to go. First, time here and I was blowin' away by the 2 Piece Fish & Chips. The fishes are huge and generous amount of chips. The batter is delicious with a nice crunch (not soggy at all) with a beautiful golden color. And...you gotta order the fried zucchini! Wow! Huge slice and thick cuts covered in that delicious batter too. They also serve teriyaki bowls and plate. We also order that dish too. You can tell from the picture half eaten it was so good. We forgot to take a before picture. We were hungry. We arrived at the restaurant before lunch time. It was starting to get super busy. That a good sign...meaning this is the place to have awesome fish & chips, chicken teriyaki and so much more. Another popular menu item was their fish burger but, we'll have to try that next time. The people working there are super nice. The restaurant is clean and the ambiance is a family vibe. Can't wait to go back.

    My daughter has been raving about this place. So, I went last night with her. She was so excited for me to try it! Welcoming staff. Small, clean inside. Menu is clear and lots to choose from. I love calamari so I ordered the fish and calamari combo. Took it to go. Still hot when we got home. They make it when you order. Fish and calamari combo very crispy outside and tender on the inside. Zucchini super delicious. They are generous with their sauces, too. If you love fish and chips I highly recommend this gem!

    Been coming here for years. Family owned very friendly customer service offers daily specials. Fish is coated lightly with crunchy crispy beer batter not greasy. Fries are crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. They make their own tartar and cocktail sauce. The place is clean. For delicious fish and chips. This is the go to place. Many other combinations offered including teriyaki plate/ bowl over rice, and burgers. Come give them. A try, you won't regret it. Enjoy!

    I live about 10 minutes away from this place and had always been a little skeptical about trying…read moreit. After seeing a TikTok influencer recommend it and show what she ordered, it looked really good, so I finally decided to give it a shot. I had been craving something that was light, balanced, and packed with protein, and after reading the reviews, the All Everything Protein Bowl seemed like the perfect choice. I placed my order for pickup, and the first thing I noticed when I walked in was how clean the restaurant smelled. Surprisingly, there wasn't a strong seafood odor at all, which I actually appreciated. Service: picked up my food upon arrival and everything was ready. The All Everything Protein Bowl was fresh, light, and didn't have overpowering flavors. It came with chicken, fish, and shrimp, making it a well-balanced, protein-packed meal. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I ended up really enjoying it. The seafood tasted fresh and clean, and the ingredients worked well together without feeling too heavy. My only critique is that I wish it came with a little more sauce. Other than that, I had a great experience and will definitely be back to try some of their other menu items.

    Food: 3.8 Service: 2.5…read more 1st time coming here even though my wife has been coming here frequently with her girlfriends, so excited to give this establishment a try after working / doing demonstrations at the State Fair. There's plenty of parking and after walking in; I was disappointed since there was no one willing to take orders in person so we were forced to navigate their kiosk menu ordering system. Their system is fairly simple to use, plenty of pictures to show you what each item potentially looks like. But if you're not use to ordering from a kiosk then it can be frustrating. We finally got our order placed and sat until our food was ready (call by name). When our food was ready, everything was there except my salad (only thing they didn't have to cook, LOL). Food was prepared well and plated nicely. I was surprised that my wife ordered her fish fried and not grilled but the fish portion was huge, but she seemed very happy with her food & her sides: brussel sprout and sweet potato fries. My two fish tacos was pretty good the ends of each portion was mostly batter which gave you that crunch sound on the first bite but the tacos was missing something maybe some salsa/hot sauce or a crema. My side: street corn and Caesar salad. Their street corn was on point so I added it to my tacos which gave it more flavor. The salad was nice and refreshing. I did also order their clam chowder which was creamy but after several spoonfuls, the taste of butter was prominent; so I never finish the soup. BONUS: they serve Stubborn soda, so if you never had it then it's worth just stopping in for that alone! Overall, nice visit.

    Incredible meal and incredible service. We got our meal to go, 2-2 fish dinners, 4 fried prawns,…read morehush puppies and fried mushrooms. The texture on the batter was incredibly thin and remained crispy even when doused with malt vinegar and tartar sauce. The hush puppies were savory and not too dense, a nice bite in between fish and fries. She even threw in an extra piece of fish in our meals and they're already huge! I got a lot of stuff to try everything out but I was satisfied after one piece of fish and a couple prawns and mushrooms. No complaints at all, everything was on point.

    The food was good, but the customer service was absolutely ridiculous…read more I ordered one piece of fish with tartar sauce, sat down, opened my food, and was literally about to eat when the employee told me I needed to move to the back because they were "about to get busy." Excuse me? I ordered ONE piece of fish. I would have been done in a few minutes. And the funniest part? I ate my fish and left, and there was STILL only one other person in the restaurant. She then proceeded to explain to that customer how busy they get and how people don't understand that the front seating is for people waiting for their food. Who the fuck does she think she is? I'm a paying customer, not someone camping out at your table. If you need the seats because you're genuinely packed, that's one thing. But asking someone who just received a single piece of fish to move when the restaurant isn't even busy is just rude. There's a way to communicate with customers without making them feel like they're an inconvenience. The fish itself was good. The attitude was not. Unfortunately, good food doesn't excuse treating customers this way. 1 star.
