Fisherman's Outlet — Restaurant in Los Angeles

You definitely get what you pay for! It's a bit pricey because it's so fresh. I recommend getting a sample so you can try a variety of what they have to offer.

The original charbroiled sampler comes with four skewered shrimp, one large grilled shrimp, and grilled salmon. Usually salmon at restaurants tends to be bland, dry, and overcooked, but their salmon was perfectly season and flaked just right. There are several options for the sides such as salad or fries. I opted for the rice, which doesn't quite seem like either white or brown rice, but is somewhere in the middle. The garlic butter sauce for dipping is absolutely addicting! The cajun sauce had no kick to it and is worth passing on.

The ceviche they serve is very different than the typical citrus and salty marinated seafood that I'm used to. It seems to be soaking in some sort of tomato soup type liquid and I'm not sure if it's just a different "style" of ceviche.

On the menu you can also find red chowder which I don't come across very often. The small serving is probably about half a cup. Of course they serve it with oyster crackers on the side and if you're feeling risky then you can ask for extra!

They also serve a limited selection of beer and wine, nothing fancy though.

I wish this place was open more hours because it would be amazing to have access to their food at the end of a long work day. Next time I'll have to try their deep fried sampler since that seemed to be what everyone else...

While taking a casual stroll down Central, a not so friendly looking man approached us and turned out to be a very friendly man. As we were about to continue along our merry way, he asked if we liked Clam Chowder and told us to visit a little restaurant on Central right before the road splits. After some investigative work, I found Fisherman’s Outlet!

I was very excited to see the amount of ratings and the menu looked delicious. Unfortunately their hours are kind of tricky so it took me a while to finally get down there and try the food. They do have a private parking lot that was super packed on a weekday for lunch!

I ordered a salmon plate, and a side of clam chowder. Despite its location and exterior facade, the prices are comparable to ones you’d find in Santa Monica or DTLA.

The salmon was tender and delicious, the side salad I ordered made my meal feel very healthy! The clam chowder was also really good, it was filled with clams and potatoes! Every bite was loaded with deliciousness. It was a bit of a mission to eat the soup in the scorching heat, so I won’t be making that mistake again! Their fried sea food looked really good and seemed to be the popular choice when dining here!

I will be back for more clam chowder once the weather cools off, and I would love to try their fried sea food the next...

First time visiting this place after years of having it in mind. There is a nice size parking lot that customers can use for free, it's located right behind the building. There is also meter parking on the street that you can pay $1 for 2 hours. There are 2 service counters, one where you get the salads and cold stuff like shrimp cocktails and other items alike and one where you get fish plates, shrimp plates and various others alike. We got there around 10:30-11 am and the place was empty. I have had people tell me that during the lunch hours it get extremely busy where the line of people is out the door so keep that in mind when you visit, also on the weekend I hear it gets busy as well.

We order a plate of shrimp and scallops with french fries and a plate of shrimp and fish with french fries. Both plates were out and ready within a minute or two and the guys at the counter were very fast to take the order and charge. Very reasonable prices and great food quality. The process is very fast! We sat on the outdoor area outside the gate, but most of the seating is outdoor, In fact, I don't think there is any indoor seating area that I notice. They also serve beer and wine and the typical sodas and ice teas. Pro tip, visit in the early hours to not have to stand in a very long line to order and...
