    The truck looks almost as good as the food tastes
    Gil S.

    Exceptional fish and chips, and the guys working the truck are great. We drove from Reno to Carson City just to give their fish and chips a try and were not disappointed. Their branded soda, particularly their root beer, is also really good--smooth and sweet-but-not-too-sweet. Maybe a bit on the pricey side, but the portion size more than makes up for it. The fish seems really good quality, and the breading-to-fish ratio is just right. We were sort of expecting steak-fry-size chips to go with the fish, but even though they were skinnier they were still ample and satisfying. No complaints; solidifies-star experience for us.

    Popular fish & chips food truck that comes through town a few times a month. They serve fresh clam chowder made with dill which is quite tasty as well as line-caught sustainable Alaskan Cod. Their menu is rounded out with a fish sandwich as well as a selection of pure cane sugar sodas. The Cod is fresh and deep fried in a crunchy batter. You get three large pieces in an order. They also have fries available. Their fries are fresh cut but not my favorite. They used to have a combo available with both fish and fries but now you need to purchase fries separately which I'm not a fan of. Prices have also increased. Expect to pay $20+ now for a full order plus tip. Sauces available include tartar sauce, BBQ, fry sauce and malt vinegar which made this Eastern born guy very happy. Despite the increased prices, this truck is still popular whenever it is in the area. If you're craving some fresh hot fish & chips and chowder, this is a great option to check out!

    My first time trying this food truck. Really good cod! $21.31. 2.21.2025

    My brother tried On The Hook Fish & Chips Food Truck when they were set up in a small Texas town east of us last fall, so I jumped on the opportunity to try them out on 2.21.2025 when they came to Hobbs (New Mexico). I found out they would be in the NAPA Auto Parts parking lot through Facebook. I purposely skipped breakfast so I'd be hungry at around 11 AM when they opened. Usually I like to eat my fish right after it's served, but it's a grab-and-go with no picnic tables in sight at this location. There was about 5 people in front of me. Orders seemed to come out a bit slow until I realized how many zombies, I mean folks, came out of their vehicles in the cold wind to pick up their orders. On the menu: Wild Alaskan cod (3 pieces of crispy & sustainable hand-battered cod) $14 Protein boost (extra piece of cod) = $4 Pick two sauces: tartar sauce, sriracha mayo, sweet chili, ketchup, or malt vinegar Fries (small) = $2 Fries (large) = $6 Bacon clam chowder 8 oz = $6, 16 oz = $11 or 32 oz = $22 Fresh slaw = $3 Cane sugar soda (strawberry or root beer) = $3 Water = $2 I ordered the 3 pieces of cod with tartar sauce and malt vinegar. Although I thought the portion were fairly slim, the cod was just as I hoped it would be - firm, flaky, and mildly sweet. The batter was not greasy. The tartar sauce was decent. They threw in chili sauce that I did not like. Also, I opted for fresh slaw. It was pretty dang good and zesty. As soon as I saw the root beer I started craving it and I'm glad I did since they didn't offer dessert. It was delicious, fresh root beer! The staff was very friendly. If you see this truck, it's worth a stop.

    Glad I was able to experience this food truck in Brigham City. Fast service. I took my meal home (about a 7 minute drive), when I arrived the food was still hot and the fish and fries were both crispy. Portion sizes were huge. Four of us each got a meal and had enough left over for lunch tomorrow. The Cole slaw was amazing! The clam chowder was delicious. The total was a bit pricy, but that's to be expected when trying everything. The next time they are in town, I will stop again and just order smarter.

    So this is going to be a nail and then finish in a little bit. Because last time I gave him a five-star review and I just want to make sure that they are as good as I thought they were and that I wasn't just starving to death and probably would have thought an old shoe tasted fantastic. Ok so I'm happy to report the food was just as good as the first time. I absolutely love it when places are consistent. Crispy nice size portions of fish. Ff in a crispy dry rub and fried to perfection. Definitely another 5 star from me

    Long line for fish, gave me high hopes!

    I was super excited to try this truck! When I heard they were coming to Sparks near my UPS box, I marked it on my calendar, and I raced over at their stated opening at 11am and found...a big ass line! In like 95° heat, too, so I figured it must be good! They worked the line quickly, but were already out of coleslaw in like -3 minutes, which I thought was odd as they had just began lunch service? Combos were PRICEY, about $15+ for fish & fries. I ordered 1 combo and did the add on fish pieces since hubby & I were sharing a plate. The fries were battered and were OK, the fish was disappointing small for about $4 each piece. I paid $25 + tip for our meal. THIN strips of fish, not much more than a fish stick LOL. Note the size of the fish portions compared to the size of the fries! I asked for malt vinegar, but didn't get any. They included 2 of each tartar & spicy mayo. Overall, not that it was unpleasant but just not a good value for the portions; glad I tried it but that's a one and done for me.

    A friend told me about a fish and chips food truck, so when it rolled into North Valleys this week, we braved the 395 traffic and headed to the Smith's on Lemmon Valley. Despite warnings of long lines, there were only a few people ahead of us. The menu is straightforward: fish and chips for $15, just fish for $13, fries alone for $6, and an extra piece of fish for $4. You can also add coleslaw for $3. I ordered fish and chips with an extra piece of fish, requesting tartar sauce, sriracha mayo, and malt vinegar. I was pleasantly surprised by the quick service, though the short line helped. The fish portions were generous, with a crispy, non-greasy batter. Normally, I peel off greasy batter, but this time I enjoyed every bite. The fries were coated, which I'm not a fan of, so I only had a few. The tartar sauce was fine, but the sriracha mayo was excellent--spicy enough to be interesting but not overpowering the fish. The staff was friendly and helpful. The only downside is the lack of seating, so you'll need to eat in your car or find another spot. From what I gathered, they visit three locations about once a month: Smith's on South Meadows, Smith's on Lemmon Valley, and the Smokeshop on Pyramid Highway. You can check their social media for where they will be and when.

    Only thing I'm disappointed in is that I didn't know of this place sooner! Truly a kept gem. Fish & chips have not been this amazing since I had it in Hawaii. So authentic. Your plate will some with sauce & the vinegar mix is optional but I say go for it! Get the full experience! After all, if you're in Reno, they only come once a month: every first Thursday at the parking lot of Smith's on Lemon Drive. From 10am-7pm. Ok so I have to warn you, there is going to be a looong line. Feel free to wait in your car. They provide you with a buzzer for when your food is ready. They're pretty fast & serve multiple plates at a time. If you'd like to wait in line, out doors. There isn't seating but I've seen people bring their lawn chairs. You gotta try this place. No seating Food truck Check calendar for local dates

    I really wanted to like this place, but I will never go back. The food was okay but not worth the price, wait, or experience.

    Placed an order on DoorDash for pickup, my man went in and he wasn't greeted at all. The boy in the…read morefront counter just said "DoorDash?" and after confirming the boy just placed the food on the counter. My man said "Thank you" and the kid didn't say anything back. We are originally from Hawaii and for a place portraying Hawaiian/Polynesian food and culture we sure didn't feel the "Aloha Spirit". Their customer service was severely lacking! Then the food - we ordered the 2 meat combo plate with the garlic chicken and kalua pig, rice, mac, and sapa sui. Also, the Katsu with fries, guava cake, and mango otai. The otai and the guava cake were decent. The Katsu was cooked well, but lacked crunch. The garlic chicken and kalua pig were so dry and tasted bland. The Mac salad lacked flavor also, the sapa sui was just okay. Overall, just super disappointed in the food. We've heard about them through reels claiming they were really good. We always try to support local, especially the poly community here in Utah but our experience just wasn't the greatest. They claim to be serving "island love" but we just didn't feel it, if you decide to try them, hopefully you have a better experience.

    This place is very similar to Mo Bettahs, but also different in its own way! My sister thought the…read morepork here was better and we loved the pineapple dessert we got.
