Combo #2-2 pieces of fish with chips
Anthony P.

After some surprisingly disappointing Fish & Chips meals in the UK, I came back to the Bay Area with a craving. This place came up in a search, and I made my way over to check them out. The place is in the corner of a strip mall. I arrived around 3pm yesterday (Saturday) and I was the only customer there. The place gives sports bar vibes, except that they didn't have TVs. I think it'd be great to add them and make it a spot to catch the local sports teams' games. The woman working the counter was friendly and the menu on the display was easy to navigate. I went for the #2 combo which came with two pieces of fish and crinkle-cut fries as chips. I picked tartar sauce and malted vinegar as my condiments. I received the food within a reasonable amount of time and it was cooked to order. The fish was cooked just right (tender and moist) and was perfectly battered and crispy on the outside. The fries were also excellent and I ate them all even though I was full. Overall, this was a positive experience. The restaurant had a variety of other fried seafood on the menu. I plan to come back with friends and try some of the other offerings.

After came home from London, I started to have some craving about fish and chips, searched for one near work in Sunnyvale and found this little place hiding in a corner of a shopping center. Went there for lunch and the place was empty on a Thursday, I think most people take out instead of eating in. I ordered a 2 piece for $14, and eat in because I wanted them hot and crispy. The order was made to order and they came out quite hot and crispy both fish and chips. They're so good, no fishy smell, the fish was so white and tasty with vinegar and tartar sauce. Enjoy every bite just like fish and chips in London. The only thing that fell short is the chips. They're crispy but not as rich and tasty as real fresh potato fries. Anyhow, it hit the spot and I liked it. Will come back here whenever I have a crave for fish and chips, glad it's not too far from work.

Fish and chips - nicely fried - well seasoned. It's cod

Had a random craving for fish and chips - this place did not disappoint. The onion rings were lightly fried and crispy! Some of the best onion rings I've had

Stopped by this spot due to the great reviews and because I love fish and chips, but I gotta say the fish and chips tasted like they were brought frozen and then fried (in that case I cna do that at home); it didn't taste terrible, it was just different. Good customer service and a lot of seating inside! This place is tucked into a corner of a small shopping center with a variety of foods and grocery stores, with plenty of parking.

10/14/2023 Bay Fish and Chips 826 W El Camino Real Sunnyvale, CA 94087 I went there for lunch in search of fried clams. I discovered that this is one of the only places that offer this around me. It is located at the corner in a small shopping center off ECR close to Hollenbeck Ave. The interior is spacious and dim. I ordered and paid at the counter and my food was swiftly brought to my table My clams and chips came with tubs of cocktail sauce and malt vinegar, tartar sauce is available. The doughy breading was a golden brown enclosing sweet tender strips of clam. The fries were good. I've been here before for the just okay fish and chips but it's a definite repeat for the clams.

Haven't had fish and chips in awhile and thought of this place. We ordered the 15 prawns, oysters ans chips, fish and chips, and fried mushrooms ans zucchinis. Our order was available in 10 minutes! So fast! It is a small restaurant, but don't let that prevent you from checking them out. The last time I came around Easter there were so many people waiting in line for food. I love the fried oysters; my favorite! I also enjoyed the prawns, fries, and fried mushrooms. The batter is perfection! Love their tarter and cocktail sauce!

Fish, shrimp and chips in the forefront. Extra piece of fish and and fried mushrooms in the back.

I was in the area for work and was craving fish and chips. Parking is plentiful and is shared with other establishments in the little plaza. I opted for the fish and chips with shrimp. I then added an extra piece of fish and some fried mushrooms. Everything retained its heat from start to finish. I was biting into it and burning my mouth. That's how solid their batter is. Could use some seasoning, but that's where the tartar sauce and the vinegar come in. Really nice lady working the register. I saw a bunch of people taking their food to go. A little hole in the wall that I'd definitely frequent if I lived in the area or just in the area in general.

Menu and ordering area
Albie E.

This place is good if you're looking for some fried fish or just fried stuff in general. I ate here with my friend and the menu is simple, which is nice . You can get fried fish, calamari, fries and other seafood. Service is quick and you walk up to counter and order. You sit at table and they bring out your order within minutes. I've had fish and chips at a lot of places. I found the fish to be good, however a bit on the oily side and lots of batter. This place is good for going to grab a quick lunch, not spend a lot of money and quick service. Not a bad spot to eat, and food was a good size amount. I'd go back for more if around the area and not spend much on a meal. Parking is in a free lot and pretty easy to get to.

As a local, I thought this was a tourist trap and I was WRONG. We ordered the combo plate with two…read morefish, four shrimp, and fries. It was more than enough to feed two women (almost too much). In addition, each piece was surprisingly FRESH and you can tell. If it was frozen prior, then you sure did a great job making it taste as if you just caught it from the ocean. The fish was falling apart and thick slices/fillets, the shrimp was bouncy and the fries were thicc. The batter was light and there were no air gaps and it was not greasy at all (someone is a pro at the oil temperature I see you) I've never been defeated by a plate of food before but I do dare say it was almost too much for me. Highly recommend (may take a while for your food to arrive but it is worth waiting).

This food truck is about a 15 minute walk from Aquarium of the Bay. We got here at around 1:30 PM,…read moreordered, and got our food within 15 minutes. It gets really hot, but thankfully there were quite a few benches with seating that had umbrellas to provide shading. Each bench also had malt vinegar (a must), ketchup, and salt. Fast casual eatery. What we got: - Fully loaded fries - super saucy! The menu says it has garlic, melted cheddar, and homemade Baja sauce. Definitely tangy and easily shareable amongst 3-4 people. - Fish only - comes with two pieces of fried fish and tartar sauce. This was pretty good and not too bad of a portion. We split it and ate one each. Good batter to fish ratio! Got our fish and chips cravings satisfied for sure! Bonus points for the pun, the Codmother is actually hilarious and definitely won me over. Would totally come back for more if I'm ever visiting San Francisco again!

Having Monterey Aquarium season passes means we find ourselves down in Monterey every couple of…read moreweeks because my son absolutely loves the aquarium. And somewhere along the way, Phil's has become part of the tradition. The first few times we came down, we were on a mission to find the best cioppino. We tried multiple places that all made their own claims to the title, but after our very unofficial family taste test, Phil's was the clear winner. Their cioppino is what keeps us coming back -- rich, comforting, loaded with seafood, and exactly what I want after a day on the coast. We also tried the sea bass fish and chips, which were excellent. The fish was buttery and flaky inside with a nice crisp exterior, and the portion was generous with four good-sized pieces of fish. At this point, a Monterey Aquarium trip almost feels incomplete without a stop at Phil's. We may come down for the fish at the aquarium, but we stay for the fish at Phil's.

Not like it used to be when located in Moss Landing…read more On the plus side, there's pretty easy parking in the lot or on the street and barely a line to order. The cioppino is totally overrated, the clam chowder had zero clams in it. The entrees come with a side salad and garlic bread and are hefty portions. The seafood pastas are what are solid here. We got our food in a timely manner. Hospitality itself is pretty non existent though.

The restaurant front is a bar, the back includes an indoor and outdoor patio. Overall is very large dinning hall. If you have over 6 guests the long table won't be ideal for group meetings. The service was on point but the service dropped a bit by the end of the night. Across street has a parking area, after 8 PM during weekdays is free of charge!

This is a large location, with spaces for events! I came here just to dine with a friend and was…read moresurprised to see the place packed on a Thursday night. That said, it wasn't the most comfortable seating, although it is atmospheric. Our table was near some stairs and it felt like the staff had to squeeze through. Like a lot restaurants now, it is a bit loud to have an intimate conversation -- surprising to see so many business groups here. Perhaps that's a plus because there's no way someone can eavesdrop on you. There is an extensive ceviche menu, so I had high hopes and tried 2 of them. We also got the bucatini with seafood and the lomo saltado. This is a good amount of food for 2 people -- perhaps just right for a big eater, but definitely too much for me. Honestly? The ceviche was just ok. I got the local halibut and the leche de Tigre. Both of them felt a bit under seasoned. The fixings was nice but the amount of seafood didn't warrant the prices. The bucatini was delicious and studded with crab meat and scallops -- it was definitely my favorite dish. The lomo saltado had tender beef and fried potatoes, but it, again, did not warrant the high price even though I did enjoy it. Oh, did I mention that it was *pricy*? Even for San Francisco, especially for a honey dish like Lomo Saltado -- I didn't think it was classed up enough for the ~$50 price. Yes you read that right! Anyway, this is a great place to use your expense account. However, don't even think about coming here on personal funds. The food was decent but extremely overpriced; you could be seated in an area without any view; and the drinks (I got the pisco sour) was weak and not even close to what I've gotten on my travels to South America.
