"Ordered the 300g calamari for sharing. Not bad, it's as one would expect from a place that's not a restaurant. I would probably go back for a snack. My only recommendation is that they advise tartare sauce was not included when you order Also, the 300g is way too small to share as a meal."

"Food was lekker! We had a fish and chip roll, and a calamari, fish, and chips roll. The calamari was delicious – one of the best we’ve had in a while. We loved the batter, and also appreciate that you didn't need sauce. The bun was fresh. The only critique would be that the chips could improve – they tasted a bit stale, possibly from reused oil – but overall, it was a great experience, and we’ll definitely be back."

"Good portion for the price. Personally I would have liked the fish more seasoned, but also know restuarants do so, so you can add your preffered amount of salt. Fish was well cooked, not oily at all. Chips were, well, chips. Overall I'd order there again."
