I like to discover new Fish and Chip joints and this place was on my radar. Drove there at lunch. Small old dive restaurant, potential to be a hidden gem. Seats about 20, on a Friday lunch, was one couple an older Scottish lady with died blonde hair (reminded me of a aunt) and I sat down in the window. The presence of the old dearie suggested to me this place will be good. Chinese lady took my order, her Chinese hubbie at the fryer. Ordered the Halibut and Chips, 10.95 plus tax, great deal.It arrived quickly, was OK. The elderly Scottish lady finished and got up, clearly had been there many times but tol the woman that the fish was "wet and oily".She offere that she knows this happens sometimes and she would be back but she wanted to let them know.She hit the nail on the head. Once the Scottish lady left, I doubled the inpout, saying the lady was right, fish was wet and oily not flaky. Woman replied that Halibut is a fatty fish but I returned it should be flaky and light.Fries were good. Batter was nice. Wet oliliness was at the fish level inside the batter.Tartar sauce was in a ketchup style squeeze container and was very Thousand Island-ish.The Scottish lady will be back, she was walking and lives nearby and has limited choices. I am driving and will not try it again. j
