I love coming by Dayton Fish whenever I'm in town. They have a great fish selection including shellfish. They'll cook anything you buy for a reasonable fee. They use Andy's breading which is what I use at home so I knew exactly what I was getting. The food came out in a reasonable time considering how busy they were. You can call in your order or just come in and take a number. The employees were really nice and patient in helping me figure out how much fish to buy for my group. Everything was hot, fresh, and tasted great!

A Dayton ClassicI was referred to come here and I got the Basa Catfish sandwhich. I was fried with cornmeal and was big, crunchy and hot. On rye bun and loved every bite with their tarter sauce too. Their Argentine Red fried shrimp, awesome!! I can not believe I have never came to this place in all the years. The face of the bldg doesn't look much but the people inside and all the happy fellow patrons are the reason why I am coming back. Plus I want to try every menu item!!!

As people of the Gem City know, this is a fish market that will fry ANYTHING you buy for a small fee. Frankly, I have never had a bad piece of fish come from this place. Of course they have catfish & swai, uggghh, but they also have whiting, red snapper, sea bass, walleye, & perch among others. Not cheap, but nowadays what is. I haven't lived in Dayton since 1987, but I make it a point to go here every time I come back (including Black Friday) to make that drive down Siebenthaler to N Main. 5-stars.

I've been going here for years-at one point it was a 6 hour drive from my Michigan home. Always the same, perfect fish and chips. Great memories-good service, nice people to chat with while waiting. Never one bad experience. Might be time for another road trip!!

The best place in Dayton for cooked fish; price is good for what you receive. There's a large variety of types of fish and seafood. They also offer many homemade sides.

Fresh fish, helpful staff. You may want to call in an order because they are usually very busy. If you do just show up, be sure to take a number.

Just went to Dayton Fish and it was packed. I was later told Friday is their busiest day. People were friendly in front and behind the counter. Our server was polite and informative. They have a great variety of Fish which was nice to see. We will go back again but not on Friday.

I have only had fresh fish- catfish seems to be a little stale looking, their frozen catfish is excellent - prices are average- great service
