Late lunch 2PM Tuesday. 3 piece catfish, coleslaw, cabbage. Truly excellent. Hot sauce & tartar sauce also good. Nice people, good breeze on the front porch. Wish I lived closer.

Great cod and catfish. Breading was just right and fish was really fresh! Service was really nice and they included extra fish for the one of us who didn't want the sides. Totally satisfied!

Fish so good you'll slap your mama! Where do I even begin? A rumbling tummy led me here, and I couldn't be more thrilled at my choice! Of all the menu options, the Catfish Nuggets platter was calling my name. I added a side of mac & cheese, some fried okra and a cold canned soda. A man was busy unpacking a plethora of cakes into the refrigerator and I eenie meenie miney moed my way to a fat chunk of carrot cake with cream cheese icing. There was plenty of available parking though it seemed many customers were walking in from the neighborhood. In addition to indoor dining room tables and bar window seats there is a nice patio with lots of seating with a breeze, a nice option away from the heat of the kitchen. Everyone there was so friendly and they even offer a discount for cash payments. Two televisions inside keep you entertained while you dine or wait for a take out order. Everything was outstanding. The fish & okra was lightly breaded and crispy hot. The mac and cheese was on point & my regards to the baker for that bomb cake. When you grow up in the South you have a certain level of expectation where catfish is concerned and they exceeded every one of them!

I just recently drove by and just saw "fish n chips" and I stopped looked at yelp and made a note to visit that shop soon after reading some of the reviews. Having a fish place close by that isn't good we have been craving a good fish n chip shop lately. So during lunch break today we took a chance and happy we did. First of all the place feels like in the south with a nice front porch where you can sit and eat and inside a friendly chef that greets you. Explains what the different fish are - catfish, basa, halibut, tilapia, salmon and cod are on the menu right now. And some bbq rips for a good surf n turf. This time we got a family meal JR which contains of 8 pieces of fish and besides the coleslaw it has to more Sides (in our case fries and Mac n cheese). Fish wise we choose the cod this time (halibut and salmon would not be in the family meal). The Mac n cheese were delicious and the fries are good. Then Fisch was hot flaky and so yummy. The breading not overpowering the fish and you could taste it is all fresh made the moment you order. All in all very good fish n chips. So we will be back there is so many more fish to explore - and rips lol.

Portland is in need of a Cajun inspired seafood joint. Glad to have finally stumbled by one. The catfish basket is pretty satisfying with very large portions. Only thing is that it's difficult to call and place an order ahead of time as the line is busy or no one picks up. But I the food is really great!
