Great Clam Chowder

If you love fish and chips this is the place to go. The staff is friendly, restaurant very clean. And the fish and chips? Done perfectly; piping hot, lightly battered flaky fish, portions so generous most times I can only eat one piece. Fries are enough for two, we get one meal and add extra fish, coleslaw is crunchy and cold, clam chowder hot and creamy. If you want to do a Chipper, this is the best place to go in Chico. Bon appetite.

Awesome place! Loved the fish, and the oysters were cooked to perfection! Loved the staff, especially Martin!

It didn't have great seafood it had o k seafood
I don't think that I will ever be back here as it was just not the place for me.
There are so many wonderful restaurants in chico but sadly, This is not one of them.

I've been going here for a couple of years now. I get the Alaskan Cod fish and chips w baked potato instead of fries (available after 6pm).

I've tried fish and chips at lots of other restaurants since the 1980s and I'm not exaggerating when I say that this place serves the best fish and potato dish I've ever had, hands down.

The fish is always fresh, the batter is fine and flavorful and never greasy. The fryer oil is always fresh and clean, and never old or smelly like you often find elsewhere. The baked potato is big and cooked perfectly. The clam chowder is rich and delicious and even the oyster crackers on the side are top quality.

Every time I eat here I feel like the chefs put all of their love and care into the food. It's really that good, and worth every penny. Prices are decent, and they have senior specials which are amazing.

I hope the owners of this restaurant keep doing what they're doing. This restaurant is a real gem in this town. Love the nautical themed decor as well!

Alaskan 3pc f&c are fantastic. Our favorite place to go for fish and chips. I can't think of another fish and chips place that's better. Nice staff. Seat yourself. And they have Mr Pibb.

Enjoyable atmosphere, wooden furniture and walls give a cozy feeling. I dined. I took out.

Great food and friendly service. The chowder and bread is awesome, the express lunch is huge and the homemade bread pudding is delicious!
