First time there won’t go back, fish was greasy and way too much batter, and sorry I don’t want the grey underbelly on my white fish. Fries were weird tasting.

Firstly when you walk in, it just screams filthy. Bad service from the owner himself. Add to that horrible quality food. I couldn't eat even one piece of fish.
