Take a walk down Venice beach and you will be overwhelmed by the amount of visual stimulation you will experience as you venture your way around the beach. If you’re not distracted by the art or street performers, your eyes will wander towards the little food stands and treats that await you on your journey!
The Wee Chipy is tucked away in between some buildings, but not too far off the path. I would never have expected this little hole in the wall (literally) to pack such a flavorful punch! I’ve seen the little establishment, but never found my way there to try and taste it. After years, the timing was right and we managed to grab an order right before they closed up shop for the day.
The fries were delicious! I decided to mix the two chippy salts together since I couldn’t choose one, and the flavor explosion was perfect. The fish was breaded just right, and did not come out dripping in oil. I really appreciated the fact that it didn’t make me sick after eating a fried fish! I wanted to try their truffle mayo sauce, so I ordered myself a side and it was well worth the extra dollar. It made the fries even more delicious and even paired well with the fish, in my opinion.
My only regret is not trying this place sooner. A good fish and chip restaurant is not easy to find, and now that I’ve found myself a spot, I will be back! Hope to try their...
Read moreI’m giving the 2 stars because their customer service is PERFECTION! They are super chill and the hospitality is on point.
That being said, I was super disappointed about the food. I got my first set of fish and I couldn’t even bite in the piece because it had a white hard thing inside the fish (looked like a piece of tendon). And yet somehow still ended up having raw batter. So they remade it, no problem.
The great part is it was hot. I ate it right after receiving it to try to have the best experience possible. The fries were soggy and reminded me of five guys fries. Their ranch on the other hand…saved this meal. Bomb!
The tartar sauce is ehhh. And the batter itself on the fish is very light and crispy but needing a little more flavor. I also wasn’t a fan of how greasy it is. That’s all I got when eating, which almost makes me believe that the frying temp is off. Because couldn’t even finish my 2 piece because it was too much as far as grease. Had a horrible taste in my mouth that I couldn’t get rid of after eating here. I was super excited to see if it lived up to the hype but it didn’t.
Glad I tried it but I wouldn’t...
Read moreThe absolutely BEST chips and fish you've ever eaten in LA! Seriously! From the warmth welcome to the whole service until completion of the order! The fish and chips arrived! And..... alleluia!!! Que bom ! Delicioso!! Simply delish! Not only we order the f£c but we also got 3 sauces to compliment our amazing food! The fish ohh perfection! Jut perfectly cooked, tender and juicy and crunchy and yum on the outside! Now the chips!! Those were spiced up with California rosemary! They were also crunchy Tasted real potatoes! Now the sauces! Killer! I mean the chipotle BBQ ketchup, goes definitely well with both fish and chips! It taste smoky BBQ with a hint of spicy but sweet somehow and with a malty taste in the end! Very English if you will!(-; the other sacude was the original tartan sauce. Just well done! (And I'm not a fun if tartar!) and finally the Italian with black truffle! Well royal it's the least bit of my humble opinion when it comes to great food! (It's one of my passions!!) it's a tiny little place with the most beautiful vibes and superb fish and chips! Honestly the most authentic fish and...
