Fish Central: Reviews & Ratings
Visited for a dinner with friends. The restaurant is spread over two floors with a ground floor dining room and an upper floors dining room with terrace. This is a family run restaurant which specialies in fish and seafood. The menu includes a variety of fish including Cod, Haddock, Skate, Plaice, Hake and Salmon. The service is very good as they have a number of mature and experienced waiting staff. They made our dining experience and excellent one. The food was excellent and also ample and was very reasonably priced. The owner George came round and introduced himself to us and ensure that we had enjoyed our meal. I had a great chat with him as he narrated the history of his restaurant. This was a nice touch. We had a great time and will certainly revisit again and again.
This is a local gem. Service is impeccable, without being overbearing. The food is perfectly cooked, tasty and comes in generous portions. If you want a genuine and tasty fish dinner in a non pretentious atmosphere and with quality and impeccable service, definitely visit. Great chef and team.
Very welcoming restaurant with a nice staff. The food was very delicious and the portion was generous. For me this restaurant is a 10/10
Such a nice place, reminds of restaurants near the seaside in holiday places, with a very caring staff and great service. I would like to highlight smiling and positive Sergio and very polite and smiling Givseppe who made our family dinner definitely unforgettable. Fish Central turned out to be one of these places you want to visit again. Great thanks to the chef and cooks, the food was fresh and perfectly cooked. Highly recommend this restaurant.
I didn't think that places like this existed any more in London. The atmosphere was warm and relaxed and I noticed many repeat customers in there. The waiters were so lovely and kind, but at the same time professional. The fish & chips itself was delicious and the price extremely reasonable.
We found this place on Eater London’s list of best fish and chips restaurants and it did not disappoint! The fish and chips were absolutely delicious and the service was top-notch. If it wasn’t for the fact that we live in America, we’d be back here on a weekly basis. 10/10. Highly recommend!
Wow!! Fantastic food, beautiful restaurant with immaculate white table cloths, superb service and friendly warm hospitality from the staff. Voted as one of the best fish and chips in the UK and the best in London by the Observer. They were kind enough to serve us with complimentary starters of hummus and taramasalata dips and fish cakes while waiting for our fresh, crunchy fish and chips. Will return, a new favourite restaurant! Thank you Fish Central!
Great food and friendly service. Waiter very professional and recommended Hake as fresher than the cod. Fish was delicious and onion rings even better. Fry was like the best tempura I've ever had. Not busy on a Monday night late, but don't be scared by lack of crowd. This place is a gem. Has a separate wheelchair accessible restroom, and no steps to enter.
