    Yadgarfish is a landmark on jamshed road Karachi, people around the globe who are familiar with Karachi knows it. Sensible, professional and welcoming staff. You have the option to select from the freshly icekept fishes from the shelve to choose, staff will also guide you with quality, type and prices of fishes from the available variety. You cam buy from the shelve and they will prepare it for you as you want. Highly recommended for all fish lovers. If someone is coming to Karachi and want to taste some good traditional karachi style fish, then yadgar fish is the must visit place.

    Management pay low attention to customers. Taste is average, same as a cart selling fish fry. No discipline in waiting service. Late coming customers sit before the early coming customers.

    One of the oldest and most famous joints known for their variety, quality and taste of seafood menu items. Most popular is the finger fish (fried), grilled options are really good.

    Fish is very famous in karachi especially in winters... is very good place for fish, you can avail all type of fish here. These guys know how to cook fish the desi way. I ordered grilled Surmai fish, fish kebabs and masala fish rice. Surmai was very good but slightly low on salt. The rice looked odd but tasted great with uncooked veggies diced and added to it. The fish kebabs were by far the best thing I ordered. Excellent dishes vip khapa resturent good price It's an old sea food point, items r very good looking n delicious, healthy food stuff need for human body, should be taken once or twice in a month. Easily be approach able from any where in affordable price. Yadgarfish is a landmark on jamshed road Karachi, people around the globe who are familiar with Karachi knows it.

    Travel all the way from Germany to try. If you order fried Fish, he'll ask you to wait for 15 minutes but these 15 minutes last very long, ( 1 Hour ) and Fish was covered with ton's of spicy masala, i waisted 4kg Fish + my precious time. Completely not recommended, some useless Vlogers has created this hype, only to create some lousy Content. My Advice buy fresh Fish and prepare at Home. 👌 ☺️

    Not a good place to dine in as the food quality was average the quality has decreased as compare last 10 years as me and my family got sick just after eating fried finger fish which was fried in unhygienic oil plus the fish was also not finger fish which i find out after eating the quality of their famous sauce is also decrease as it was very thick paste as compare to now is like a water. Too much crowdy not a quiet place to enjoy your food also the air conditioning system was not working in the family hall .

    It was one of very best sea food outlet in karachi. ambience is not a top notch. family hall is just ok. different kinds of fishes are available. singapori and thai dishes are also available in local style. if you are going for their most famous finger fish , the taste is declined now and this place is just waste of money, the taste of finger fish, green chatni, farmaishi chapati has been lost, parking is now also a big issue.

    It's a very famous and oldest restaurant in the vicinity of gurumandir. They have many offerings in fish related items. Parking space is very limited and its located in a very congested area so better to go early or by other source of transportation

  • 4/5 Irshad B. 8 months ago on Google
    Good quality sea food. rates are moderate. Site is main road jamshed road.

  • 3/5 Ghulam S. 5 years ago on Google
    Ultimate Fish eating experience. They offer wide range of Fish products from grills, fried, karai, katakat and mixed with rice. Food is good but they still need to redesign their interior and over all look of restaurant.

  • 3/5 Badr K. 11 months ago on Google
    Food was excellent. Staff was friendly. However, I have some comments: Rice was served cold There was at least one stray cat bothering the customers. At times, she was becoming a nuisance. This cat should be removed. The place needs some upgrade.

  • 4/5 Haseef Babar R. 7 months ago on Google
    Just one thing only, they know what they're doing. Got the fried fish! You chose a piece of fish/seafood, let them know how you would like it prepared to you're taste and rest, leave it to the experts. The seafood did not smell, was extremely fresh and had a lot of flavor. Not to mention, it was just moderately priced, not to expensive. Their house made chatni went amazingly well with the fish. Though, the atmosphere could be a bit better, it felt a bit hallow.

    FAZOOL TAREEN - FAMOUS FOR NO REASON It might be good at sometime or people who like fried or grilled fish here might not know good taste or there are many good places in the same budget with good ambience, security and parking facilities. Highly NOT recommended to people who follow me. I would literally prefer Hasan Square Fish points over this. There is really good variety, competitive prices and quality.

    Excellent taste, generous quantity and value for money. I'd highly recommend this place to you if you're a fish or bbq lover. They have a vast menu including a very tasty Chinese.

    The food is tasty and delicious, but the ambiance is not good. They should work on the atmosphere to make the experience more wonderful.

  • 4/5 Faisal A. 1 year ago on Google
    I have tried grill fish at Yadgar fish and it taste was really awesome. However, ambiance was bit average comapred to other resturants but much better than other fish stalls in the city. They are providing proper siting space. I am looking forward to my next visit in recent future.

  • 4/5 Sundus F. 1 year ago on Google
    Not many fish variety were available (which is surprising since they are called Yasgar Dish. i remember long time ago they had a lot of variety and fish options. Maybe its was a bad day. Only 2 fish options were available. We tried the finger fish (rao) with hot roti (the other was pengasis, which we didn't try). We'll try the prawns next time, have heard a lot of good stuff about it Not bad. But tartar sauce etc would have helped. Other options include basically mamy bbq options like chicken rolls, boti and rice etc Very economical though

  • 3/5 Syed J. 2 years ago on Google
    In the past fish quality, taste freshness and service all was good, but now as they got famous, tate and freshness is not up to the mark.

  • 2/5 Hakeem M. 2 years ago on Google
    It was once a very good place for fish lovers but now there quality isn't same as before.

  • 3/5 M.Shahid S. 2 years ago on Google
    Fish is not so fresh the masala they use is too much spicy lacking flavors. Sometimes overcooked fish is served as well. If you will tell them to take care of these points you may get a good service.

  • 4/5 waqar a. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice fish but not a very good place to bring family. Too crowded. No parking space. Service is good but no hygiene and safety SOPs are implemented. I would recommend to take food but would never recommend to sit there and have food.

  • 5/5 Syed K. 2 years ago on Google
    It's an old sea food point, items r very good looking n delicious, healthy food stuff need for human body, should be taken once or twice in a month. Easily be approach able from any where in affordable price.

  • 2/5 Arshad J. 1 year ago on Google
    What used to be thr tastiest spot for Fish and other seafood items has degraded its taste lately. Either the chiefs are changed or they aren't focusing much on producing the same taste, all you eat is green chilli spices, Green Onion and Chinese flavour in every dish be it Prown Karahi or Fish Katakat. And their is no ambience what so ever. A typical roadside hotel sitting area named as family room. Taste has to improve again as much as the sitting area needs a renovation to attract families.

  • 5/5 anna a. 1 year ago on Google
    Taste of fry fish is too good n prawn rice taste is also better but masala prawn rice not recommend ...
