alright-to-decent fish at this chain. I’ll be honest: I come here only for their swordfish collar. the chain suffers from inconsistency – food standards can be well below average depending on the outlet you visit, and service is slightly haphazard. but I think of the swordfish, drool a little, and ignore it all.
my parents like the garlic lemon butter mussels – the sauce is good for dipping, it comes with soft bread that works well together.
they have a new special menu for sides like prawn fritters to accompany your main course. this is quite a good idea – especially for variety. the giant stuffed squid was a monstrous-looking fried ball of cephalopod stuffed with orange cheese. a little rubbery, but worth the experience.
the swordfish collar is always delish. hulking bits of fish fried up to a crisp and served with a mango salsa, this is moist, firm white fish. the other mains are pretty alright – they’ve also just expanded their menu and the sis tells me standards are a little better (I wouldn’t know because I only ever have the swordfish).
it’s not posh dining at all – most things on the menu are essentially iterations of fried fish with sauce, and rather crude renditions at that. but it’s a good meal for mid-week, nothing too strenuous. plus, fish is good for you!
