Sunfish

I would rather be treated rudely than ignored. Why is this my opening comment? Because I love the Greek brothers who love to dish out the borderline insults to me. I was just here and deliberately asked a few dumb questions to raise their ire. They appear to delight in having an opportunity to rudely correct me and question my Intelligence. I do enjoy the fishkabob, that is grilled halibut and prawns, with green peppers and onions. Kalamari is nicely cooked and crunchy. Medium halibut with fries is very good. I have been here 15 times and really like the variety of their offerings. Once, I stood in line during a busy summer day. Got my salmon and chips. The place was packed, so I took our food to go. Found an empty picnic table after much searching. Sat down to eat our well deserved food. Seagull came, perched on the table and stole a big piece of salmon. All in all, a definite Alki Beach experience.

One of my favorite places for fish and chips. The fish is always battered to perfection which means more fish than batter. The food is always served piping hot. This time I decided to try the oyster basket and it did not disappoint. They were very generous with the portions of fries. I love how they had garlic vinegar on the side which is a game changer. The chowder was what caught me off guard because it was so good and rich. The chowder had tons of clams in it too. The location is nice and they have outside seating so that you can see the water as you eat. The service was lacking where the folks working there were just trying to get through the day. We didn't mind though since it is more of a order, pick up, quick bite and go. Parking will be tough since it is all street parking.

The bomb diggity!Lets get the one negative out of the way. These greek brothers refuse to upgrade their credit card dial up service, so if you're paying by card, wait for that 26k modem to activate, make the phone call to the bank and after like 2 minutes, your payment will go through. This can be painful because a line can form easily because of this.Why is this the best fish n chips around? Particularly the Cod? (Not a fan of Halibut). Its breaded perfectly, no oil and PIPING HOT!!! and Juicy!!! If you got a sensitive mouth, better wait a minute or two before taking that first bite, massive warnings to ya!!! How can it be so hot, yet so juicy and still tender at same time? What type of voodoo is this? Just remember, order the Cod n Chips, we actually always skip the fries, you also get charged less if you say no fries. We only have time for the good stuff, the Cod, the Prawns, Oysters, Chowder etc. We keep meaning to try the skewers, soon, one day.Additionally, the famously sometimes temperamental brothers that own the place seem to have softened up a bit. I never had a problem with them, but I am sure their temperament in the past could have garnered some bad reviews.I'm so glad they survived Covid and the bridge closure. A true GEM!!!Get the Cod!!!

Service was ok. Didn't like the dining area so we did takeout. The cod fish and chips are great! We got our food to go and sat out at a picnic table nearby and had a lovely view with our lunch.

I can't believe this place isn't recommended in all the guides for Alki! Everything is fresh and delicious, best clam chowder we've had in a while. I got the combo with cod, every type of seafood was exceptional. Definitely get extra tartar sauce too!!

So bummed to give this place a negative review, but it sounds like we had a very similar experience to one of the other reviewers on here. We were in the process of ordering and saw that we were being handed little cups of tartare sauce. Neither of us are big fans (personally prefer lemon/vinegar on our fish n chips), so we said that we didn't need any. Immediately we were asked, "tourists?" We're not tourists, nor should that matter. From then on the service seriously lacked. We continued to be polite (smiling, please, thank you, etc.), but got little-to-no response and felt like we were being judged for everything we did. When our food was ready, we also weren't acknowledged or told it was ready, despite waiting right there. It seemed like we were no longer welcome because we don't like tartare sauce?? Thinking back, we should have just taken the cups and thrown them away to avoid all of this, but that felt wasteful. We ended up eating outside, and that was nice, but overall it was not a good experience. TLDR: the fish was good, the chips were good, wish there was lemon/vinegar. Don't let them know you don't like/want tartare sauce. Unfortunately, we won't be returning due to the service.

I visited sunfish for the first time and I really enjoyed their cod fish and chips. The cod was delicious, tender and juicy with light breading. Fry's was kind of bland but malt vinegar fixed that problem. The tartar sauce was ok nothing special to my taste, it tasted more like mayo. To me the sauce has to elevate the flavor of the fish but instead it overpowers the fish. Clam chowder was nice creamy and tasted good. The atmosphere is great and enjoyable to be there. The service was friendly and fast. And the person taking the order was amazing, friendly and easy to talk to. Definitely worth checking this place out.

OMG ...sorry Spuds...sorry I always went to you for my fish and chips cravings when I could have been going to SUNFISH!!Such freshness, taste, and abundance. My oysters were as plump as they could be..and the fries perfectly cooked.And! There was this magical vinegar with garlic and peppers and...magic? I put on everything mmm definitely coming back soon.

Halibut was too dry. Fries overcooked. And in chowder I've found piece of plastic bag.

Food,was great. Fish was moist and flakey that it fell apart when you took a bite. The calamari serving was unexpectedly generous. Plenty of outdoor seating.
