    Breaded not battered fish, this is high quality fish not treated as well as it can be. Breading is heavy and crunchy. Would prefer a lighter batter or Panko for this high quality product.

    Fish chips all the way. You'll want at least 1/2 lb.

    Decent food if you like deep fried. Their potato salad is very good and I am typically not a fan of mayo

    They will fry up as little as a 1/4 lb. So if all you want is a taste, go for it.
