Funky harbor side shop with views of setting sun silhouetting yachts. Fresh fish, broiled with best clam chowder this side of New England, crispy cole slaw. Australian wife rated fried fish non greasy and delicious. WARNING. Empty parking lot next to restaurant is poorly marked but reserved for boatees. The ticket ruined the evening. more

My family and I found this place while bikeriding. The area is a great family area. Its right near the Pier , and the location is in the Harbor. Seating overlooks where fishing boats often dock, which attracts Seals and other Sea life. The Fish & Chips are the best !!~ The portion are hearty, The coleslaw is outstanding and... more

This is a small shop opened in 1969 by a family. Still owned & operated by the same folks. The Alaskan Cod is the BEST I've had in the USA. The service was great. All meals served in baskets, and your utensils & condiments are self serve, but that's what makes it great. No frills, but it doesn't matter. The... more

The fish and chips are delicious. The tartar sauce is yummy. This restaurant is a little hole in the wall - NOT FANCY- wear your bathing suit. Hundreds of fish pictures for decorations, and a wonderful outside dining area. You see the harbor, the boats, and the seagulls, who will steal your food if you are not careful. more

It's been five years since I've been in Oceanside, but I'm happy to see that the menu and the food quality has not changed. My favorite, the 5 piece shrimp basket, is still a mainstay, and still excellent. The place ain't pretty, but they make their own batter, and the deep fried shrimp or fish is great. more

Great fish-n-chips but expensive for what you get. Other than summertime, they close much earlier than most restaurants (that serbe dinner). more

Wow, we read the reviews and thought this would be great, but... the place is really not very clean, the fish was huge as another reviewer noted, but the hugeness was all greasy batter with very little fish inside. The slaw was edible, barely (on the soggy side) and the fries were pretty greasy. The oil tasted like they had... more

The fish and chips here are huge. The batter they use is very tasty and the cod is Alaskan cod, which is very juicy and not fishy. They batter-to-fish ratio is perfect, where you actually get tons of fish, and not all batter. They also have shrimp and chips and I swear the shrimp were nearly the size of little... more
