    cod fish and chips
    Ronald H.

    I always go for the cod here. It comes out tender and not dry, which is exactly what I want in fish and chips. The fries are great too, and the free refills are a nice bonus. It is definitely nicest in the summer, but I still enjoy it on a clear day even if it is a bit chilly. There is some seating on the wharf, which adds to the whole experience. Just make sure to check their hours since they operate seasonally.

    This is where we celebrated memories and I love how the food was. I felt like a food court and exclusive space for my family and I, although not every seating area had umbrellas and it was hot if you were eating these foods with the sun beaming on you, but the dock to the boat was short, and that experience reminded me of the suspension bridge in Vancouver these memories were very precious to me for my family and I

    Came here for fish n chips a week ago and I must say the portion size of the fish filets are not what it used to be. Everything was pretty oily as well. The fries was just okay. Won't be coming back.

    My first Fish & Chips in Canada. It was amazing. I also tried it in Japan, it was totally different. The tartar sause is my favorite.

    Lovely experience eating on the pier! Would absolutely come back again! There was no line when I ordered, but the wait for the order was longer than expected. Tons of people started queuing up right after I ordered. 5/5 cod, salmon, and halibut -- the tempura style batter is so crisp and the fish is light and flaky. 4.5/5 Bottomless fries - crispy, we went back for seconds!

    Wow the line was long but it moved fast! Hard to find a shady spot to eat. They are a great fish n chips place because they have a variety of fish to choose from. We got Salmon, Cod, and Halibut. The salmon was my favorite because it had a sweetness to it. The fries were ok, I recommend just getting the fish. I likes the creativity of their tables with holes and they give you the fish in a cone where the table holds it stable. Their salad was also very tasty and refreshing!

    Yum! So fun eating fish and chips on the pier. We got two pieces of cod with the bottomless fries for ~$23. A little pricey but the fish was very delicious with a nice crispy light batter. Bottomless fries was nice too - just go up front. You can also ask them for an empty cup for water (there's a fountain) and plates to share. Ketchup is self serve and they give you the tartar sauce and lemons.

    Before heading to Vancouver we did some research and decided to add this to our list of places to eat. A couple of buddies and I are constantly on the hunt for awesome fish and chips after having possibly the best fish and chips from Epcot at Disneyworld years ago. I know that sounds kind of crazy but we were excited to go to this place. The overall experience was okay. It's not the greatest atmosphere because it's on the water (which is greenish) and there are parts of fried foods on the benches and tables from previous guests so birds tend to hover around. We thought the fish itself had decent batter and was okay tasting. We ordered a 3 piece and ended up with 5 pieces because I think they thought a couple of pieces were small so they gave us more. I have to say that the fish tacos my daughter ordered were very tasty but our fish and chips quest continues.

    We had a birthday BOGO coupon so we headed down to steveston for fish and chips at Pajos. It's a long weekend with nice sunny weather so it was pretty busy in the neighbourhood. It took some time to find parking. Took us a minute to realize where the ramp was to get down to Pajos lol. We ordered through the app and it didn't take too long for them to make our order actually. I wish there were more tables and benches to eat at as most of them were already taken up. We picked cod and thought the food was decent , but the price is a bit steep (at full price) for what you're getting. I would say that It's a nice treat to have once in awhile!

    Sad the city cancelled the contract for the Garry pt location. Portions have def gotten à lot smaller. Fish and chips are still one of my favourite in métro van. Bottomless handcut fries. Fast turnover, online ordering. They added some more seating at the top of the wharf and somehow there are less seagulls than usual.

    2pc wild sockeye salmon and fries

    Delicious fresh fish with outdoor seating by the pier. Nice afternoon on a moderate summer day with a light breeze off the water. Service was fast and straight forward. Food came out quickly and was very fresh and hot. For the portions it is a little pricey but since I'm visiting from out of town and can't get fresh fish of this quality back home it is definitely worth it. They do have an app to order ahead of you want or if you'll be here often. Beware the local birds who are waiting for you to drop a fry. Would come back again or at least recommend for anyone who's never had fresh fish and chips.

    Two piece pacific cod and chips
    Richard U.

    Perfect place for a fish and chips spot! Located right on the water along Steveston Wharf, which is still a hub of commercial fishing. All sorts of fried goodies! I went with the Pacific wild cod and halibut. Pieces were not huge but were fried well in a nice crispy batter. Fries themselves were decent but not the highlight here. Food is served in a sort of papery cone for easy holding. The seats around the place come with convenient holes that your cone of fried goodness perfectly fits into for easy eating. Apparently, a fish taco or burger order can come with "bottomless fries" which I did not test. Beware the seagulls here show up in force and can get a bit pushy looking for a free meal!

    Fish and chips - two pieces
    Austin W.

    Terrible chips, good fish. We ordered halibut and it was very flakey and cooked well. Battering was thin, crispy, and not oily tasting. On the Friday that we went, we only had a ten minute wait between ordering and receiving our food. Minus stars for the stale and soggy fries. Honestly some of the worse fries I've ever had. If it weren't for the ketchup and tarter sauce I dunked these fries into, these fries would've gone straight into the trash. There's an option to order just the fish so I strongly recommend doing just that.

    The cod was perfectly done with flaky fish and light batter. The fries were crispy and it was just what we wanted.

Be prepared to wait, and wait you will. Especially if it's a sunny day. 30 min to order your food, and then another 20-30 min to get it, depending on how busy they are. Outdoor seating only with a bunch of benches and a few tables. I already knew I was going to do take away, so I didn't need to jostle for a seat. Almost everyone else had to do the jostleing. Two piece cod and a salmon tacone. The cod was overcooked. The tacone was good. Fries were crispy and unevenly fried. Meaning some pieces were burnt a little. Still acceptable tho. Hence the 3 ***'s It was decent, but it didn't wow me. Maybe it was an off order day. I like my fish. You can smell the ocean near the pier. Makes me feel I'm surrounded by fish and everything fishy.

But, still accurate. Ok..... The House Salad with Chicken. The Chicken was tasty. There was just not enough of it. Especially considering added chicken was $8. Not an Entree size and certainly not filling. The rest of the ingredients were so underwhelming. Barely any beats, a few tomatoes and just a heap of shredded carrots over a bed of greens. So very basic for an $18 salad without the chicken. The 2-piece Cod and Chips. The actual battered fish was nice. But....uhhmmm....I think either some of the fries must've fell off our plate on its way to our table, or someone helped themselves with our fries (see pic.) When a dish is called Fish n Chips. Guess what? The highlight is what? ..........The Fish AAANNNDD The Chips. There you go..... Ok. At this point I was ready to go. So, I went to the ladies room and that's where the horror started.

The building is definitely on the older side. Lots of wood trim. Reminds me of an old dock. The seating area is L shaped, and largely fits around the outer edge of the building (the restaurant is on a corner lot). Great view of the park and water. Staff are friendly and cheerful. As my friends and I were only here for a beer, I can't comment on the food. Pricing looked pretty reasonable, and I've heard good things about this place from friends. Guess I'm coming back at some point.

The oysters that day were from Fanny Bay, so they were very plump and juicy! The addition of the fresh horseradish on the oysters added a really nice flavor with just a hint of the spicy kick you get from jarred horseradish.
