Everything is cooked to order at this Lorin district hole-in-the-wall. Order some fish and chips and crunch your way through the... super-crispy cornmeal breading to tender fish that?s steaming hot. Oysters and shrimp are also great. The fries are mediocre butyou can?t go wrong with the selection of fried seafood. Read more

I have never had a bad meal from the Fat Fish. I have bought individual and family sized meals and we have been well satisfied... and full. Everything is high now, so why complain about the price of good fish??They do give plentiful fish and sides. This ismy go to seafood establishment at this time. It is also near my house making it very convenient for me. Read more

Delicious food. I always order pickup and because they don?t season their fish, I just sprinkle on my own when I get home. Other... than that, it?s high quality and delicious! Well worth the price. Read more

OMGoodness... It's a lil hole in the wall with big heart... And great fried fish!!! ???????????? The best fried fish I ever had... from someone else kitchen... Fried with cornmeal to perfection????????????????!!! It was my first time... I had been cravingsome good fried fish for a while... Had a few bad tries... That left me upset???????????????? because I waisted my money!!! Mypicture does it no justice.... The only thing was wasn't pleased about was no restroom... So empty your bladder before you go. Iactually left to find a restroom and came back. Soooooo glad I did. I ordered the red snapper (6 pieces) ???? I was up setbecause it was sooooo good that I wanted to eat it all but was too full ????????????. They have the door propped open so when Iwent in I was a lil concerned because there were a few flies in there... I was able to see where they prepare the fish... It wasclean and the person preparing the fish had on gloves ???????????? it was 82 degrees outside. When I got my fish... The smellwas so good!!! The portion was way bigger than I expected.... Please note that the tray the food came in was deep. They actuallyput the small pieces of fish that broke off in there too ???????????? it was flakey and full of flavor. I also tried theoysters... I was able to order just 2 and that was not on the menu options!!! Customer service was amazing!!! Very accommodatingto make sure I had what I wanted!!! Love the have a blessed day, after I went back in to get more tarter sauce (something thatI almost didn't get but felt like the wonderful lady was telling to get in a very subtle way to get it) I don't really liketarter sauce , after tasting it... I paid to get extra????????????????... It definitely taste like home made...???????????? Inone of the worst times of my life with the loss of 5 family members in less than a 3 month span... It was definitely comfortfood!!! I wish I could have shared it with my daddy???????????? He would have loved it!!! Shout out to Read more

The food is OK! the prawns are butterflied and fried with too much batter, NO SEASONING , the oysters are NOT seasoned. I?m used... to having a full oyster which is about as big as a tablespoon, like the ones you get out of the jar, the ones I received are ahalf of a teaspoon size that have waaay too much batter NO SEASONING! NO OYSTER! The potato salad was not so bad. Actually verygood. They don?t put egg in it but seasoning wise, ON POINT! Read more
