| - It's hard to find good fresh fish restaurant in Toronto. This is a true gem in one of the more ghetto areas in the GTA. Most seafood places use frozen seafood. And I've never been a fan of fish n chips. Deep frying takes away some of the fresh seafood flavors of fish.
Don't let the outside fool you, this isn't a sandwich place. This is a place where you can get good seafood. They have fish n chips for a somewhat reasonable price. But IMO if you get fish n chips here you're missing out. You need to get their fresh seafood which they display in the front. They have various fish, shrimp, calamari, and mussel. Prices by weight.
We don't visit the area often so we went all out. We had 1 fish, some calamari, and some shrimp. The calamari we had fried and it was one of the most fresh, and chewy calamari we ever had. The shrimps were ok, we had them bbq style. Big, and juicy with that fresh flavor. We had a fish singari style. It wasn't as good as we expected but it was still ok. I was expecting more flavor but I don't find anything incredible about "singari" style.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this place. Fresh seafood is not cheap. But this place isn't terribly expensive. The restaurant is not much to look at. It's one of those places you come exclusively for the food, not for atmosphere.
