| - Everything was just ok, not great.
I feel it deserves 2.5 stars out of 5, but I'm rounding-up and giving the extra 1/2 star based on the fact that I opted for the all-you-can-eat 'white fish' & chips Special, rather than the haddock or halibut, so I chose the low-cost fish, therefore they get the benefit of the doubt.
Now I really have to say that just $9.99 every Saturday and Sunday for all-you-can-eat fish and chips is a surprisingly low price, so I was not surprised that the fish was more batter than fish, described as "just whitefish", even when I asked, with no more origin or breed information apparently available.
What I was not prepared-for was, how greasy and crunchy the fish was, (and one of the things I usually like about fish & Chips is that it's greasy and decadent), but this was excessively oily without that moist inner lining to the batter, that I personally enjoy, plus the chips were just "ok", which is not okay for a fish and chip shop, in my opinion.
The owner was friendly, the service was good, and the portions were generous, with no reluctance to deliver on the all-you-can-eat concept, and I took full advantage, unfortunately the food was just okay.
I may give them another shot, and try their haddock or a platter with scallops and shrimp, or I may just stick to more reliable locations like St. Andrews or Olde York on Laird.
