This is such a great place for your standard fish and chips. I've been craving fish and chips for a while, so this really hit the spot. Parking is easy to find, service is quick, and there's outdoor seating for me and my big dogs which is a big plus. I wasn't sure how much to order since I didn't know about the portion size. next time I would just order maybe one plate of fish and chips and one bucket of clams. The scallop was good, but nothing amazing so next time I would just stick with the fish and chips. The fish was great, crispy and soft and everything I wanted. The clams were also amazing and buttery and garlic, coming with two pieces of garlic bread. I had a great time and I would come back again for sure. read more

Polite and friendly service. Reasonable price. Large portions, attractive happy hour menu. A true neighborhood gem that many locals stopped by and they had warm greetings from the staff. We ordered grilled fish, grilled seabass and rainbow trout. The veggie were big and chunky, the fish was heavily seasoned and tasted fine. The portion was good with the early 20's in price. It's indeed a very reasonable price for seafood. I had a quick glimpse at a clam chowder bowl and it was gigantic. The deco was mostly teal blue wall with some fish and seashells on the decoration. Simple but has its character. read more

Fish spot hidden on the other side of 85 in Cupertino. Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3 Cost to worth it rating: 3 (bit spendier for grill items: $20-30+) Opentableable: no reservations Return worthiness: yes Highlights - Bigger menu than I realized with not just fried foods but grilled plates and sandwiches - Grilled fish: lots to choose from plus a few specials - Fish shrimp scallop fried platter: significant representation with each and fried crispy maintaining the soft texture of the seafood inside. 4.25 stars - Chilean sea bass was tender and good but could've been a plumper piece and a bit more flavor. 3.75 stars - Full service with waiter and some beer/wine Lowlights - Small place so gets packed at lunch and may have to wait for a table - No Coke products for soda read more

This place is kind of a local legend and I can confirm that it's for very good reason. I headed here for a late Saturday lunch with some friends. Both pieces of the fish I ordered were massive. Be aware of the portion sizes! On one hand, I thought 1 would probably be sufficient for me and although it would've filled me up, this fish was too good to stop there. On the other hand, my friend with a much hardier appetite got the 3 piece and he was more than stuffed. Plan accordingly. This is the perfect Fish and Chips. The fish comes out, tender, and crispy. The coating is cooked perfectly, isn't too thin or too thick, and shatters with each bite so that you're not getting large bites of batter with no fish. I really, really recommend dining in because this isn't the kind of batter that can hold up to traveling before it's eaten. Like any fish and chips spot, the salt, pepper, vinegar, and lemon levels are all left at the discretion of the customer; yet another reason to dine-in where all are readily available at the table! read more

First time here, amazing little seafood joint. Everything priced reasonable and you get quality seafood. May not be the ultimate best but for the price, it's super value and tasty. The oyster rockafella is about 70% as good as Antoine's in New Orlean. Fish & chip is about 80% of the best in London. Fry oyster was interesting, I thought it's going to be like those in Japanese restaurants but it's turns out to be the big oyster fry with fish and chip batter. It's good. I am going to be a regular now, don't have to drive all the way to Sam's in 1/2 moon bay .... read more

The City Fish is a good spot, and their fried fish n' chips is good enough where it's keeping the family from ordering anything else to test and try out :) We will deviate from our favorite reliable menu item 'tho! The clam chowder is good, and if you order the 32 oz large size it can easily feed 3 to 4 people as an appetizer cup that's near bowl sized. The service is fast and friendly Parking is easy. read more

I stopped by for lunch early on a Saturday. Clam chowder soup was my favorite item here. It was thick and viscous, and flavorful. Mahi mahi was my favorite fish here. Chilean sea bass was the special, so I went for that as well. It was buttery. The spices used in grilling are not flavorful. And I could not make either fish flavorful with the sauces provided. Mashed potato was my favorite side. Rice, French fries and basil tomato were the other sides. read more

Absolutely incredible fish and chips, so glad to have found this hidden gem. Their fish is delicious, does not smell fishy, it's crispy, fresh, good batter, and they give you both the tartar sauce and the malt vinegar with it. The interior is good, not a pretentious spot, just a good delicious spot for fish and chips; and a pretty darn good clam chowder too. My husband ordered it to go for us , they were super friendly while taking the orders. Love this spot, delicious and fresh fish read more

I've driven past City Fish Co. for years and finally decided to give them a try by ordering their crab sandwich through DoorDash. I'm so glad I did! The bread was perfectly toasted, the crab was fresh and flavorful, and everything arrived in great condition. This definitely won't be my last order. Their tuna sandwich is next on my list, and I'm looking forward to trying more of the menu. Sometimes the places you've been driving by for years end up being hidden gems! read more

We dropped by during happy hour and tried their oysters, fish taco, chicken wings and fries, and fried fish. The oysters were 10/10, juicy, fresh, and plump meat. They were 1.75$ each. The fish taco was ginormous with grilled fish and two tortillas. The fried fish was nicely battered and tender. The chicken wings were solid -- nothing to write home about, just basic but a solid option if you're not into fish (or want fries, which is why we got them). The service is great, friendly staff! read more

On a visit down to visit the in-laws in the South Bay, SIL suggested this place for a late lunch Saturday arriving around 2:35pm. Located in Stanley Square which consisted of several storefronts with a parking lot in the back. Across the street from the US Post Office. The four of us had a nice booth by the front entrance. Ordered off a two page laminated menu. The four of us each ordered seafood - * hubby had the three piece fish and chips. Huge fillets fried perfectly. And hot. * I had a cup of clam chowder and fish tacos. The soup was creamy but lacked clams. The soft tacos were just enough. * SIL had four deep fried oysters and prawns. One of her go to orders. * BIL had a green salad and rainbow trout. Everything looked fresh. * hubby & I ordered beer and BIL had hot tea. Service was friendly. It's a family owned business. Conveniently located near Hwy 280 entrance. read more

Very nice servers, friendly and helpful. Generous portion. Wanted fish and chips, replaced chips with coleslaw (a bit too sweet). Fish was super fresh and not too greasy. Salmon was cooked to perfection. Shrimp Device with lots of fried tortillas. The clam and mussels portion appeared more than 2 dozens. Broth was so good with lemon, butter, and garlic. Plenty of parking front and back. Neighborhood spot. Choco flan was a bit thick. read more

Yesterday I got the Combo Shrimp and Crab salad and some clam chowder and a Crab sandwich with some fries. That was a FEAST and enjoyed every single bite. The location is small/medium size with outdoor tables available. Easy to find off a busy Hwy 85 in Cupertino California. I decided to go order so I could come home and fill up my belly and mouth with some great seafood. There were two males and a female working there handling all of us hungry customers. They are bilingual spanish speaking individuals. I have also been to the Morgan Hill location. If you are looking for the authentic, fisherman wharf type of seafood. Give this place a try and guaranteed you will enjoy it. read more

I frequent this place multiple times a year, whenever I crave for American style seafoods. When I picked up a to-go order a couple of weeks ago, I noticed a patron having a bowl of Cioppino, and I have very little resistance to that. So a group of us came for a lunch time feast: my Cioppino (with pasta), a lobster roll, a clam bucket, and a combo oyster-prawn-fish. Boy were we happily satisfied afterward. Instead of crab pieces (with shell), they dump a lump of crab meat on top of the Cioppino bowl. Easier to eat but less authentic. Also, there were broken shells and one unopened mussel. This means the cook did not pay enough attention to details. Guess this is not haute cuisine. Again, please upgrade your beverage list. Also, try a less pungent cleaner solution please. read more

You'll find parking near the rear of the restaurant. They have shared parking with neighboring business. When you walk in it's a small restaurant but they are producing some delicious food. I started with the crab cakes they tasted fresh and made to order. Then Moved on to the fish . They were large, filling, and had the normal toppings. The oysters Rockefeller wow so cheesy and delicious . I also got the fried platter with the shrimps scallops, fish and some French fries . All good battered perfectly amd fried to perfection. Wow all around good I even got a pasta to afterwards The service was attentive and the food came out in decent time. 2 young men were servicing the tables when I dinner in and they provided great service not only to me but to everyone in the establishment. Alot of great options I didn't get to try, I will surely return read more

Review is only for their tempura style fish & chips. The batter was super crispy, even after the drive to bring it home 20 minutes later. I had known of their DTSJ location, but didn't know this location has been around for years as well! Very decent fish & chips (3 piece fish plus chips for 18 bucks which came out to 21 bucks total with tax). I was impressed that the it stayed crispy and did not get soggy (I left the container open). The chips (fries) were seasoned and mostly still crispy as well. There is street parking and a parking lot in the back as well. Even had 2 comfy looking tables and seats outside. Would love to come back and try other items and see if they're any good as well. read more

My first time and I probably ordered too much. Everything was good. The oysters Rockefeller is not as good as Tadich Grill's in SF. But for the price of the OR here which is only $20.50 for six pieces, it's really very good value and worth it. As I was leaving I saw a board outside on happy hour prices indicating a single fried fish was cheaper than what I had paid for. Other than that, everything was delicious and satisfactory. Looking forward to another meal here. read more

Have had this place bookmarked for years! We came to Anza flea market and finally had a chance to come for lunch. Overall I liked this location more than the Morgan Hill one. The main draw is the fish and chips and these are closer to American style than they are to UK. The fries are a nice medium cut and were great. Fish was slightly over fried but still tasted good. We got 3 pieces of fish for a family of 4 and while it was enough fish there weren't enough fries, next time we would get 2 orders. Sea bass: grilled with a paprika blend. Well cooked and easily flak d with a spoon we got them with a side of coleslaw and tomatoes with basil. Loved the coleslaw, even though it was sitting in a lot of liquid. A nice light hint of mayo and the cabbage tasted super fresh. Wife got the clam chowder, heavy handed on the cream and would pass in it next time. read more

The City Fish in Cupertino is my first visit! I had been craving for some fried fish, but I opted to balance out my meal--just a little bit. For starters, I ordered the Clam Strips (w/Fries). Next, I ordered the Ciabatta Crab Sandwich (includes Fries as well). I even added an a la carte piece of their fried fish. I couldn't really complain about my straightforward appetizer. The Clam and Fries were nice 'n' hot. The appetizer was exactly how I imagined it would be. The City Fish tarter and cocktail sauces offered some "help". This dish somewhat, prepped my palate. Solid 3 stars. I ordered the Ciabatta Crab from the menu because I was also craving something "luscious" that would pair well with my fried foods. This sandwich had lettuce, tomato, avocado, mayo and bacon. The described ingredients were definitely in my sandwich, but it needed something more to tie it together. It's not a bad sandwich, and, so I rate it a solid 3 stars. Lastly, I received my a la carte piece of Fried Fish. City Fish claims to use Alaskan Pollock. For $5.45, City Fish gives you a large, impressive piece of fried fish! On a good note there were no signs of heavy oil or evidence of uneven batter coating my piece. My fish even had that nice "curved" treatment :) Though City Fish fried the fish to perfection, there was nothing boastful about the seasoning or the flesh of this Pollock. While this fish looked impressive, it tasted just "simple". The fried fish isn't "bad" for its value, but I could only rate this a solid 3 stars. Two different staff members served me the bill and provided the check and the doggie bag stuff. Both servers were solid workers. There is some outdoor seating for up to 4 people. It appeared that the place accommodates a good 22-25 customers on the inside. It was 11:15 AM on a weekday and natural lighting was sufficient. There were no types of unnecessary extra features or embellishment inside. Overall, a solid fish place. read more

City fish is amazing for seafood lovers. Anytime I crave seafood this is my go to for fresh stuff. I love their food, I love how quick their service is and the staff is very attentive to you and explains the specials of the day very well. The atmosphere is very simple, diner style and Hu good for 4 people in a group. I am sure the can re-arrange tables to make room for larger groups. The clam chowder is yum, I even love their fresh sea bass and my kid enjoys the fish and chips. The crab cakes are great too. I keep cooking back here and if anyone loves seafood this is the place to be. read more

I always order 2 pieces, fish and chips. They always gave me a third small piece. I first time tried their clam chowder and it is pretty good. Enough clams in every spoonful!

That is too bad, please support your local businesses. read more

We came here for lunch after a hike and enjoyed the dining experience. If sea animal meat is not considered real meat, then this is a great spot for Lenten Friday, which partially explained why it was so busy. This was my second visit just like my previous one replenishing from a hike except i got company this time. My scallop and fish w/fries was excellent. The batter was light, meat fresh and ample. The crunchy biting effect was satisfying. The fries however was not the best I've had. The solid starchiness inside might prove they used frozen potatoes. Tasted Seabass in my son's plate, it was amazing! The delicate fish fillet was seasoned to perfection accompanied by creamy mashed potato and fresh, generous salad. Staff were friendly and attentive. Our server kept refilling soda drink for us. Interior decor was sea themed and retro. Vibe was vivacious. Will try their happy hour next time. read more

Hadn't had fish and chips in a while and happened to come across this place! So happy it's down the street from work. I ordered the combo with two pieces and the clam chowder. With tax and tip, it came out to around $20. The order includes fries so it was a pretty generous amount of food. I love how flaky and crispy the fish was. A little under seasoned, but so yummy with the tartar sauce, malt vinegar and lemon. The clam chowder was so rich and flavorful. I also appreciate how full the cup of chowder was lol. The fries were nothing magical. I took it to go, but the employee who took my order was nothing but helpful! read more

The food was barely edible. But the real shocker came at the end of the meal when we were charged extra to use a credit card. I know some businesses will give a discount when you pay cash, but I've never seen a restaurant charge more for using a credit card, especially when this policy was not posted anywhere in the restaurant nor on the menu. We definitely will NOT be back! Also, I just realized, after looking up the rules on the internet, I was overcharged! I used a VISA card which should have been capped at 3%, but I was charged 4% which is the cap for a Mastercard! read more

Low key restaurant with a nice home-y feeling. Seemed like there were a lot of "regulars", and I can see why! The waiter and staff were kind and chill. The food was fried perfectly, and, for the price, there are generous portions. The scallop, shrimp, and fish combo was awesome since there was a variety of proteins. I will say, the only thing I wish was that there was more seasoning? Definitely needed tartar, cocktail, ranch, and ketchup. The crab sandwich had lots of crab and was good on a hot day. I'll definitely be coming back to try everything else. read more

The fish pieces are huge and a single person would be totally full from a 2 piece fish and chips. The fish and chips were well fried and were still crispy even though I ordered my food to-go. They were generous with the tarter sauce and vinegar, which I appreciated, but I personally didn't love the taste of the tarter sauce. It had maybe carrots or something in it and I wish it were more tangy. It gets the job done but I might make my own next time. I also got a cup of clam chowder. It was tasty but being from SF I've had much better chowder elsewhere. I would skip this next time. The stand out here was the service I got from Javi. He took my phone order and was polite and courteous without "doing too much." He was the one to also ring me up and hand me my order and he was, again, chill but also super nice. He did a great job. It would be unfair to not share the low point of my experience, even though I hate putting people on blast. While I was picking up my order, there were two female employees standing behind Javi behind the register. One of the ladies was braiding the other ones hair. In food service it's really important not to touch your hair - you should be ready to work before you arrive, or head to the bathroom to take care of any grooming. In the moment I just tried to shrug it off but then the lady braiding the hair sprayed some kind of hair product to finish things off, and I later realized my food was sitting on the counter right next to them. It really disturbed me how they didn't see their behavior as inappropriate and it didn't bother them at all that I was being rung up while they were doing this. I'm a little torn about whether or not I would return. Again, the service from Javi was great and the fish and chips were definitely good - no complaints there. However I didn't love everything I got with my meal and I'm not sure how seriously they take cleanliness given the employees doing their hair in the front. read more

I really enjoyed my crab sandwich here! Usually I am a little wary of cold ciabatta sandwiches because the bread can be thick and chewy, but this bread was great and not too thick for the sandwich. The crab meat tasted fresh and paired well with the other toppings. Our group of 4 ordered a variety of other food too, including calamari (which was delicious and perfectly crispy), and a combo platter with fish, garlic fries, scallops, and shrimp (pictured). Two people of the group also tried the lobster roll, which had a pretty good amount of lobster, but my boyfriend said the roll was just okay overall. My sandwich and fries plate was quite filling and I would probably order it again in the future. Interior is a little small and the tables are placed pretty close together. Service was friendly and pretty attentive. read more
