The best food ive had a awhile. Simple menu where everthing tastes perfect - loved my fried shrimp, and the tartar sauce and fries were just as amazing. Amazing batter
Without a doubt the best fish and chips I’ve ever had. People were pulling in right as they were opening at 2 so I knew it was gonna be something good. Great atmosphere as well and the lemon and chocolate pies were both delicious
The best fish and chips I have literally ever had! Famil owned. Great service! Will definitely be back!!
This was our weekly Friday go-to when before we moved away. It’s always on our to-do list when we return. BEST fish and chips! We haven’t had anything close since we moved away! I love that it hasn’t changed/modernized, because it’s still the quaint, wonderful, delicious little place we always loved!!
The food was wonderful and the service from the staff was probably some of the best I’ve ever had. The waitress serving us was named Heather and she was also awesome. The time that it took them to make the food was probably like 10 minutes, which is really fast and the food was hot
Absolutely amazing fish make sure you ask for the small pieces!! Onion rings are a 10 out of 10 pictures of 10 out of 10 shrimp is a 10 out of 10 highly recommended
If you want to have the absolute best fried fish in the Metro Detroit area, this is the place to go to. It has been around a really long time so they have a long standing reputation to uphold. They continue to do exceed expectations every single time. Great staff as well.
Took my hubby for lunch! The food was plentiful and good! I enjoyed it! Just remember to take cash, no credit cards!
