Absolutely delish fish and chips and tempura prawns and veggies! The batter was shatteringly crispy with perfectly cooked fish/prawns/veggies. Also very generous serves! I forgot to take a pic until two prawns in, so the portion is even bigger than in the pic. More

Seafood haven should be the name off the place. Everything we had was excellent from the regular fish and chips to calamari to the tacos. Plus service is quick as well. Parking is bit tricky in the area, but hey it’s Bondi what do you expect. More

On a random visit to Bondi, it was good to go to this premium fish and chip shop. It moved from Hall Street to Glenayr opposite the Beach Road Hotel. Great service + the fish was fresh. I had the John Dory and my friend, the Barramundi. … More

This is one of my favourite go to places in Bondi. The food is really healthy but still tasty and satisfying. I also highly recommend this place if you are low FODMAP or have onion/garlic intolerance- I usually get a simple grilled fish and veggies. Also, love the fish curry (if you don’t mind a bit of chilli) More

Decent place for fish and chips or a variation of it. Fish was done well in general, and the steamed veg or salad option is a great healthy alternative. Chips were mediocre and a bit soft rather than crispy.
Expect Bondi prices here of course. More

Food and service were both excellent. Seafood felt fresh and had nice seasoning to them. Chips were a bit disappointing, could have been more crispy. Would definitely visit again. More
