My sister and I enjoyed a Friday Fish Fry Dinner on 4/11/2025, before a show at the Rialto. We were quite impressed by the Freshness, Crispyness, and wonderful taste of everything. The Fries are fresh cut. The Cod Fish was so fresh and seasoned well. Our server was AMAZING, Friendly, and prompt. It was our first time there, but I will definitely be back.

The food was amazing and really hit the spot. This is a great spot to grab food and drinks before a show which is exactly what we did!

What this place lacks in size it makes up for in flavor! Their Cuban sandwich is delicious with bread that is crisp on the inside but soft on the inside and super tasty pork. Just the right amount of cheese, mustard and pickles. Easy, fast, friendly service.

Staff is attentive and kind. Food is delicious and the owner has taken care of my dietary needs and brainstormed possible future vegan entrees with me. This is the kind of business downtown has needed.

Food was great. I got the cod dinner and my husband had the catfish dinner. The owner and staff were super friendly. I would go back again.
We stopped in one evening to meet a friend for drinks. The drinks were good, but the food coming out caught my eye, so we came back a few days later. The Ocean perch Fish fry on Friday was so GOOD!! We had the brisket nachos as an appetizer, which were amazingly good. The owner and staff are great. We are now regulars...'nuff said.
We gave this place a shot based on prior reviews. We had the smash burger, onion rings and salad with grilled chicken. The food was amazing. The owner took our order and was incredibly pleasant and personal (for a SOX fan). We will definitely be back when we are in the area again.

So glad my mom's shop is in the same building as Richardson's! The food is beyond great and Marzell is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. I eat here every chance I get! If you haven't dined here, you're missing out!
