Reviews for What a Catch in Tacoma, WA
Charming little kiosk perfect to sit on the public steps to eat at when the other nearby restaurants are crowded. Quick service... too in terms of food. The waffle fries were well cooked and the tacos were quite flavorful, albeit expensive. Read more
This place has gone really downhill since it opened. The quality of food you get for the price you pay is outrageous. Then after... paying the high prices you can barely get dipping sauce. I bought 4 different orders for my family of 4 and they would onlyallow me to have 2 dipping sauces. I used to love it there but won?t be going anymore Read more
The griesiest fish n chips I've ever had. Fingers and napkins covered in oil. Couldnt even finish the basket that the kids and I... had like 10% of the fries. Asked for tarter and told they were out of tarter sauce to wait 5 minutes and watch people after meget tarter sauce to be forgotten in which I had to ask a second time. Read more
First off: the food is great. The staff is super friendly but they always seem to be short staffed. It's clear they are working... hard and doing their best but do they have the resources? They always are out of something and they are not great atcommunicating what they are out of. The line is long and slow but the French fries are awesome! Read more
Came here on July 3rd. It was super busy and took some extra time, but the food (Halibut with fries) was surprisingly excellent.... I am not a big fish and chips fan, but this was very good. The staff were friendly despite being overwhelmed with orders. Read more
Honestly the fish tasted really good. I?m not sure about the sanitation process but I had a big piece of kitchen cloth in fish.... I took it out. No biggie. Although the halibut is tiny. Not worth price. The older lady ringing up is really nice and had asmile on her face the whole time. So was the other employee with braided ponytail. There was one other employee who was at thestove frying- she was really rude giving many customers short snarky responses. The attitude was unnecessary. If you can?thandle a high stress job perhaps you should consider another place of employment. I asked for a small cup of tartar sauce (thecontainer was broken). They took it to the back to fix it) I asked for a little bit while they fixed the container. She rudelyreplied that she would fix it and bring it out when ready. It wasn?t difficult to put a little hit in the cup!15min later stillno tartar. Honestly with the rudeness of the girl and the size of the fish I don?t think we?ll eat here again. I wouldrecommend a friend to go to another restaurant in the area and get takeout if they wanted to eat outside. You?d get a betterexperience. Read more
The public waterfront is such a great place to visit when the sun is setting. We were walking by the various restaurants, ready... to order takeout when we were attracted to the friendly staff in the fish bar window. And the people being served before uslooked happy so we joined the line. We ordered fish & chips plus a chowder and a berry basil lemonade. The fish and chips wereabsolutely delicious and we were very impressed by the eco-packaging!! The chowder was so rich & buttery it should be called abisque. And the lemonade has so much basil flavor it kept tasting like pesto pizza? Read more
This has been our favorite Fish & Chips spot every summer since they opened. Until now ????. We ordered 2 orders of the 2 piece... Cod n Chips and both orders of fish were extremely small pieces but sadly very rubbery and the fries were so salty they wereuneatable. Thought of returning the order but I was tired and didn't want to drive back. I'm disappointed truly. I'm not surewhere to go for our fish n chips now. Guess I'm on the hunt of our new spot. Read more
