Reviews for The Fish Counter in Vancouver, BC
Halibut & chips and fried oysters have a nice light batter. Very fresh from the sea. The halibut was cooked perfectly... maintaining its texture with a lightness to it. Absolutely delicious. The fries were also very good, tasted freshly cut andfried, somewhat like NY Fries. We got takeout so the oysters were a bit overcooked and cold by the time we got home. But wheneating at the counter, very nice! This time, disappointed with the size. I ordered four oysters, and at $3.99 each, I expectedthem to be bigger. Here you can see that they are the size of a tablespoon. Aside from the size of the oysters, I give thisplace 5 stars for the quality and taste. Read more
Freshly battered and fragrant fish and chips! Ordered the cod fish and it was really fresh and smooth inside with the crispy... batter outside. Breaded oysters was surprising good too. Very delicious and will definitely go back again. Read more
Easily met high expectations as Vancouver's best little fish eatery. Halibut was tasty, tender, nicely cooked and lightly... battered. Fries were savoury and plentiful. Shared meal, with one extra piece of fish. Fast, friendly service. Full, satisfyingmeal. Great new addition to our list of favourite local fare! Read more
The blazing heat of a summer day found us here. We had crispy cod tacos, Salmonito, crab and shrimp baguette, and clam chowder.... The clam chowder wowed us with its satiny texture and the tortillas in the tacos were super soft. The crispy fried fish waspacked full of flavor!We sat inside, eating and watching the world go by. The place is very cozy with its wooden beams and sellspickles and other tangy condiments. Definitely going back! Read more
I got the halibut fish and chips and clam chowder. The fish was fluffy, not greasy and best fish from fish n chips that I?ve... tasted. The service was really attentive and nice! Clam chowder was different wasn?t creamy was more like a stew. They sell somesauces, seafood on the side. A few spots to sit inside and at the counter. They have glasses for water as you eat. :) Read more
Consistently superior to any other F&C place in town. Great service but it?s all about the food. I like the cod and have heard... their gluten free batter is very good. The bouillabaisse is chock full of seafood, veggies and very rich. Be mindful of thedays/hours so as not to be disappointed. You won?t be disappointed. Read more
They nailed both the fish and chips! The halibut wasn't oily and had the perfect crispiness. It had the right seasoning and... texture, and it was amazing with the tartar sauce. The crab and shrimp sandwiches were also amazing. Overall it's an amazingplace and I'll definitely come back for the oyster sandwiches some day! Read more
