This is the best fish n chips I’ve had to date. It’s not the dish that I’d usually order off a menu at an establishment, but if they are of this quality I’d change my disposition. I’ve even been to London, and this beats the fish n chips there. Let me explain:

First, the fish is firm. It doesn’t fall apart when you eat it, unlike most flaky fish. You can use your fork to separate it or eat with your hands without it crumbling into a mess of fishy flesh.

Second, the fish is very flavorful. The balance of the breading and the fish itself is perfect. The most common issue with fried fish is that the breading takes over, and that it tastes like you were eating something too oily. This is not the case here. This is well-salted outside, and more importantly—what tastes like inside the breading (in the fish itself) too.

Third, the breading is crunchy. This is not a “light“ breading, and actually has a substantial amount of crunch. This sets up a really nice contrast to the moist and tender fish inside. Many fish and chips do not achieve this level of crunch in their crusts, and often end up soggy.

Fourth, the fries are actually quite good. Many times, fries feel like they are unseasoned or soggy. Fries here are neither of those. They are crisp and salted–just how I like them. Many restaurants consider fries an afterthought, but that does not feel like the case here.

You’ll have to pay more for extras. For instance, I had to pay a little bit extra for tartar sauce. Thankfully, the tartar sauce was quite good. If you were to get an extra from the menu, I would recommend the curry. I was very surprised because it was not a combination I had considered before. An interesting aspect of this curry is that it is quite dense. I can tell there is quite a lot of biomass that was blended into the purée that is the curry sauce. It’s a very good combination with fries. I also tried the gravy, but it was not as noteworthy as the curry. I would recommend the curry over the gravy.

In short, I recommend coming here. For the best fish and chips experience you may have in your lifetime, I believe the prices are fair and the value is good.
