They are really touting their family friendly atmosphere for some reason. Presumably an odd location and dwindling customers, but who knows. I don't think they changed much to bring about the family friendliness, it's still all high top tables or bar seating (unsurprisingly kids can't sit at the bar). Also no kids menu.
Presentation - See above for my thoughts on the ambiance. Feels like a bar really. Luckily my girls are old enough to sit at a high top table without incident. Service was good, though they only let me have one type of fish. I chose fried cod. Sorry tilapia. Plating was meh. 2/5
Aroma - Smelled like fried fish tacos. Not a standout, but not bad. 3/5
Value - $8.99 for two tacos. No side. Big pieces of fish, but by no means a bargain. When the plate arrived I expected to need to stop at Del Taco on the way home. That didn't happen, so I'll give them one extra point. 4/10
Fish - One big piece, and not bad. Good breading, not too greasy or heavy, solid flavor. A bit of a pleasant surprise. 6/10
Not Fish - Only one tortilla per taco, but also one lime slice per, which offsets it. The sriracha ranch wasn't bad and was needed to avoid an otherwise dry taco. Fresh veggies, still not sure about that jack cheese. But overall it came together. 6/10
Overall Taste - I didn't hate them. I actually liked them. Not like a lot, but no real complaints. Well balanced and more filling than expected. I wish they would have let me do one of each. 6/10
Bonus Points - They tried here, the owner brought out some snacks for the girls. Nice gesture, but they were expired. +0
Overall Overall - 27/50
Didn't expect too much out of this one, they ended up coming in a bit above what I anticipated, but still blend into the middle. At the price point I'd advise you skip it. If you're in the area and really jonesing for some fish tacos, there are plenty of better ones within a mile or two. 9 to go.
