Fish and Grill Hub — Restaurant in Hobart

Very confusing and we were ripped off with the fish! Menu board was hand written and not easy to understand. This was not helped by the fact the shop attendant couldn't speak good English, not helped by the face mask. She pounced before I got even close to deciphering the menu. So, we got off to a poor start. Then she wrongly explained the meaning of the family packs (initially we were going to get 3 pieces of fish but the price was for only 1 piece) and she told me the minimum order was 5 potato cakes whereas we only wanted 2. So I paid $16.90 for ' trevalla' & chips ie the family pack, then $10.90 for another piece of 'trevalla' & $5 for 5 potato cakes. Chips & fish sat while the potato cakes were cooking & were cool/cold by the time we started to eat 5 minutes later. Then the so called 'trevalla' turned out to be blue grenadier or Hoki. I'm a Tasmanian, I know what Trevalla looks and tastes like. These people need to get their act together & lesson No.1 is don't rip...

I wish I didn't have to select 1 star in order to post a review. Went there on a Sunday afternoon, ordered Chicken Burger & Chips and Battered Trevalli and Chips, the burger cost $16 and the fish and chips $20, was told after I paid that it would be a 20 minute wait (we were wanting to just sit on the beach and eat lunch) order was ready I could see no chips with the chicken burger, asked where the chips were and was told bluntly, that will be another $4, I just said to not worry about it and left, we got to the beach opened our boxes and YUCK!!! My chicken burger was even chicken it was like a flattened rissole and tasted awful, my partner but into his fish and it was rancid, probably been frozen for a few years and the batter was soft, soggy and oily and even the "no frills" frozen chips were undercooked, food spat out and dumped in the bin....

Quite disappointed with the quality. The chips were not fresh in texture - possibly either the oil needed a refresh or the oil was too cold. The batter on the fish was very thick and had not cooked against the fish, so was sticky and gooey, but crisp outside (so misleading). Hard to judge qualities of the flavours as a consequence. The potato cakes come only in an option of five individual cakes and we've had similar quality at service stations. It was not busy, so quite surprised by quality (particularly for the fairly robust pricetag). It was relatively fast, accurate to the suggested time. However, won't come back because confident we can get the same quality (or better) at much better prices. Will continue to explore fish n chips...
