    I had been to the Halibut house on King a month ago. Got great cod and chips and grilled halibut, Tonight fries were not fresh, refried, grilled halibut was the size of the palm of my hand which I paid 18.00 for. and the cod was half the size they normally sell. I spent 43.00 plus tip 5.00. I will never go back . very disappointed. now on the hunt for a new fish and chip place.

    Fish and chips (Halibut) is heavy enough that one piece can do most people. Good gravy, slaw is surprisingly tasty - I can't stand most places. Prices hurt a bit but hey, good food ain't cheap and cheap food ain't good!

    We loved our fish and chips! Husband is not a fish person and didn't really enjoy his meal but the rest of the family tucked in. Decent prices, tasty food and everyone was friendly.

    My son didn’t want to eat at this restaurant because the sign is weathered/damaged… I made him go and he was pleasantly surprised (kids…) Anyhoo, very generous portions, great food and service. I had the halibut with onion rings.

    Use to be good. But orderd 4 halibut, it was not halibut. Very upset it cost me 100 dollars for garbage. I will let everyone I know and we are close in the neighborhood within 5 mins walk distance. Unless I hear from the owner.

  • 3/5 Janine P. 10 months ago on Google
    Halibut was very good. Fries are a little too thick and could use a bit more time in the fryer. Haddock wasn't that great. Clean restaurant friendly enough staff. Just a typical fish and chips spot. Nothing extraordinary about it. Did love that we were given a big bottle of tartar sauce so my husband could have as much as he wants and not steal mine!

    Ok, so anyone who loves Fish & Chips knows how difficult it can be to find a really great place. So, with that in mind, I submit my review. Number one, the restaurant was clean, it didn't smell oily and dirty. Number two, the size of the filet was good, I've had the Haddock and the Halibut, so that was important. The Chip's are great, good size, good cook. Price? Well... there isn't a whole hell of a lot any of you can do about price these days... everything is expensive. But there are specials each day, so to save a couple of bucks, check with the restaurant. They change their oil, you can taste that first and foremost you can't hide that in this business. I had a great experience, you should check it out and form your own opinion.

    Always love going in and seeing Mo, absolutely the best service. I’m so picky about my breakfast and Penny gets it right every time.

  • 5/5 Nazlene B. 1 year ago on Google
    The BEST place to purchase Halibut. I ordered the Seafood platter and it's a BIG order. Fries, onion rings, scallops, shrimps and Halibut included.

  • 4/5 David S. 1 year ago on Google
    A very cost-effective place to have fish and chips on Mondays and Tuesdays if you're not fussy on the type of fish. You can get in and out for less than $20 per person and have a good size piece of fish.

  • 5/5 Michael The Arch A. 2 years ago on Google
    I had the Tuesday special, Sole fish with chips. It was good. I prefer Halibut or Haddock, but the Sole was good.

    This place is actually sad, employees look over worked, the food cleanliness was frightening and the kitchen put my friends and my own breakfast on the same plates and expected us to pick off of the same dishes. Gave us half a portions of homefries and states were supposed to share them off one plate although we both ordered the largest meal the grandslam. The waitress wouldn’t give me her name or a number to speak to an owner. She threatened to take my licence plate number down if I didn’t pay for the food me and my friend were not eating. The whole place is a disaster and led to a customer following me and my friend to the south end location. Harassing us, telling staff at the location we bolted without paying although that was not the case. I told the server I would pay if it’s a big deal but we will not be eating the food and her attitude was very disrespectful stating she’s going to write my licence plate down for being an unsatisfied customer. This store needs to be closed my Durham region health department. I filed a police report on the customer that followed me and I will not be returning to this store. Steer clear unless you want terrible food, bad service and strange customers following you.

    I went for breakfast Ordered white toast Breakfast was brought to me I had to wait for the toast When it came it was burnt Waitress said If it's overdone I will take it and get you a fresh order of toast Already waited after my breakfast was brought to me Now I have to wait again The waitress did the same thing to everyone that was in eye sight from me Then when I went to pay She says I didn't charge you for your coke because your toast was burnt This is what she was doing Place your order to the cook Put your toast down in the toaster toast would pop up before breakfast would be ready get cold Then when order was ready Put your toast down again bring your breakfast Bring you toast which is burnt now and promo something on your bill to make you happy and so you will still tip I didn't go to be part of a hustle for some desperate waitress Food cost must be higher when she's working Every one gets something for free at the cost of the owner Customer aren't going to complain they are getting something for free The owner is paying for everyone to get 2 orders of toast and something else on their bill for free Sad that this waitress thinks this is a good practice I won't be back Lots of places to get a good breakfast and get it all at once without burnt toast

  • 1/5 Canadiana N. 5 years ago on Google
    Tried to use this place for breakfast... I like the home fries and the eggs are reasonable, even though they come hard over no matter how I've asked for them.... I've given them now 3 chances to produce a cooked pancake and they have failed... sent the first one back because of raw batter and received a second one which was way less cooked... take it off the menu if you don't want to bother... nobody is asking you to offer basic breakfast food if you don't want to make it... I was planning to eat breakfast here all month while I finish a large construction job, but will be finding another place which can cook pancakes and eggs well.... had a fish and chips one time a few months ago and for $17 and double deep fried to reheat it I figured they were maybe better at breakfast.... I was mistaken... brought up this problem as I was paying and was charged 20 bucks for some raw pancakes.... 8.99 special ( on menu) plus a glass of milk and a coffee comes to 20.96... what in the hell? Cook did not care...

    Purchased 2 halibut n chips, thought it funny how quick my order was. Get home n the fish isn't cooked enough n fries taste kinda funny. Want good food go to Bloor and stay away from the King n Gibb location.
