My thoughts:
Came here with some friends and we all shared a calamari rings ($3.95 for a small) appetizer and a platter combo consisting of halibut, shrimp, scallops and fries ($14.95).
We were unimpressed with the calamari rings, which were fried, like the platter, but surprisingly, the batter was very bland. It honestly tasted like they forgot to put salt in it. Nonetheless, the batter was very light and crispy. The platter's batter had the same light, buttery consistency but the flavour was so much better! They did NOT forget the salt for this (odd, isn't it? You'd think the batter would all be the same..) I wasn't crazy about the fries as they were thick cut and not very crispy and the fish was just alright (a little dense), but my-oh-my, the scallop and shrimp were to die for!

Pic #1: The calamari. Sorry, I didn't remember to take a picture until pretty much the whole plate was finished.
Pic #2: The platter, which consisted of shrimp, fries, scallop and halibut.
Prices were reasonable. Service was pretty good and the waiters responsive (don't you hate it when you try to catch someone's attention and they never seem to hear or see you except when you want to get the bill? Not the case here). They did, however, forget our platter order, but hey, mistakes happen so all's forgiven.
A little funny story. On the menu, you have the option of essentially building your own platter. One of the platters came "with chips" and another was the same thing but "with fewer chips", which was $0.30 cheaper! Yes, that was actually written on the menu, haha. See below.
Pic #3: Half of the menu. Wish I'd taken the other side, too, since there is no online menu. Take note of the boxed area!
My verdict: Yes, I would definitely come again. Not sure I would order the halibut or the calamari, although I do think the latter was just an 'anamoly'.
