Usually when I order fish and chips at a place I end up with something that is more batter (see: greasy, dark brown and crusty) than fish, and my stomach does somersaults within an hour.
Not so at Off the Hook. I was pleasantly surprised to get a nice piece of halibut that was light in colour, not hidden in a coating of greasy batter and didn't make my stomach flip afterwards.
The secret must be in the coating (including organic or gluten free flour) and whatever type of oil they use to cook their fish. It just tastes healthier than most places.
It was just one piece of halibut (with homemade tartar sauce) but it was more than enough alongside a portion of yam fries (with dipping sauce) and coleslaw, all for $13. That's a great price because most places charge $15-$17 per plate for substandard fish and chips.
The service was quick and friendly, there's a little bar in the back with a couple of brews on tap (on this night I chose Spearhead), and there's limited seating.
I was there on a Saturday night. All but one or two tables were full and quite a few people were coming in for take-away.
