- This is one of my all time favorite fish taco places. I like to order one taco plus a cup of clam chowder. Gets busy at lunch time so arrive early or sit at the bar. Parking is on the street.Upvote3Downvote
Didier BaronJuly 22, 2015For the real piece, get the fish&chips, if you want to go light you can have the grilled Shrimps taco (delicious). For 4, prepare 40+$ with the drinks. Enjoy!Upvote3DownvoteUpvoted Jan 3
Nick MeadSeptember 15, 2014If you like cream cheese wontons they make them with shrimp and are topped with a spicy sweet and sour sauce. Order with a giant fish taco and you will be more than full. :)Upvote3Downvote

Keith SchulnerJune 1, 2014The Sweat Chili Fire salsa was good & the Ah Pocket for $3.50 was tasty & big enough for half a meal for an average eater. I ate with the $7.50 seafood burrito which was also good, though less specialUpvoteDownvote
Jennifer HermannApril 3, 2016You can order a side of grilled veggies fora healthy addition to your meal. Ask for a side of Spencer Sauce.UpvoteDownvote

Wilson Favre-DelerueApril 30, 2018Tacos are fresh but unremarkable. Patio is road side but not unpleasant when the traffic is light.

Filbert WJune 11, 2015If you get the grilled fish & shrimp burrito, ask for no rice. Plenty of carbs in the tortilla.UpvoteDownvote

Cassidy FlynnJuly 2, 2012The giant fish tacos are 2 for $5 on Monday's at 3:30 but don't count on Ashlie the cashier to tell you that because she is a retarded pirate hookerUpvote3Downvote
Grace MorrisDecember 4, 2010Must get giant fish taco! Best there is and use caribbean sauce or another house sauce, amazing. Hard to just eat one!Upvote1Downvote
The fish and shrimp burrito is incredible.UpvoteDownvote
More of a heads up: the ahi tuna pocket is served cold. Eat it like a taco, rather than fish first w/ a fork. Don't make a rookie mistake like I did.UpvoteDownvote- Best seating is at the counter, but you might walk out smelling like a fish stick.
