well , my partner and i decided to try this place a couple of saturdays ago. always drove past and the place was packed so got us interested.
what can i say, we walked into the smallish shop,looked at the extensive menu board,noticed a seafood basket for one was an enourmous $28.90 and it included fish bites for goodness sake,not even a piece of fish .We wanted flake but they ran out ,it was 12.30 mind you. the fish was $9.90 a piece. so we had maihi maihi(thinks its spelt that way) but with chips it was 10.90 so we had the deal and an order of calamari and potato scallops. we were informed that they were changing the oil in the fryers so we had a 20 min wait seated outside. no crowd this afternoon and pretty quiet. place was clean, no one ever came to wipe down the outside tables which were dirty. the woman serving us just answered our q;s with short answers, wasnt very friendly at all.so we were given a pager and waited at our table. we were beeped and got our $40 order, potato scallops were way voer priced at $2......well the piece of fish was about 5 inches long and very crispy and tasteless and oily,very disappointing for $9.90 the chips were a sprinking ,i counted mine there were 14 thin thin thin cut chips,slightly bigger than mcdonalds fries! the calamari was tough and cut into small chunks and was oily,very unappetising to say the least. I never ate mine,chewed one chunk to death and turned me off the rest. potato scallops for the money were disgraceful, thin cut, small and oily.the fish and chips came in a small cardboard plate with sides on it and i mean small! so much for new oil.im still wondering if it was new oil. on this visit alone i really cant see why there is a crowd at this place in the past. if the cooking is anything like today then im baffled.feeding kids wasnt cheap either,3 nuggets and chips for $7.90. come on nuggets cost like 12c each and the chips would have been a handful. certainly getting money for the least food. we wont be going back again.....

Approximate cost: $9.90

Truly the best fish and chips I have ever eaten. We always have to wait a while for our meal, but that is only because it is so popular. Great range of delicious, fresh and cooked seafood. It is conveniently situated near the beach and parks, with plenty of tables and chairs available if you prefer to eat there. Reasonably priced and great customer service.

What a lovely fresh seafood market. A lot of variety and the staff know their products. I will definitely be going back.

Good place - they really know how to cook nice, grilled fish and perfect chips. Atmosphere is a little lacking in and around the shop, but head over to the beach to munch on your food and it's perfect!

For a real laid-back Queensland experience, take your picnic set, including wine and glasses, buy your (truly excellent, super fresh) fish and chips at a bargain price from the take-away, then go upstairs to The Deck, settle in at one of the tables overlooking the marina, spread out your banquet, and enjoy.

Approximate cost: $10 each

I purchased some king prawns, crabs and bugs and all were great quality and tasted great. The prices were really good and the staff showed me how to crack a crab and cut the bugs for me.
