5 Popular Seafood Chains Serving the Best Crispy Fish and Tartar Sauce
Fried fish and tartar sauce is a classic combo, commonly found in most restaurant chains that specialize in really good seafood. The crispy battered or breaded fish and creamy, tangy tartar complement each other perfectly, and of course the tartar is perfect for dipping fries (or anything, no judgement here). If you’re craving some really simple yet delicious seafood that always hits the spot, the following restaurants won’t let you down. Here are five popular seafood chains serving delicious crispy fish with tangy tartar sauce.
King’s Fish House
King’s Fish House has a wide variety of excellent seafood on the menu, both grilled and fried. The Beer Battered Fish And Chips plate is a popular meal made from wild Icelandic cod, served with fries and tartar sauce. “I had their delicious fish and chips but I have to point out the little details. Finally a restaurant that gives you plenty of tartar sauce for the fish without having to ask for more!” one happy guest said. “And the shoestring potatoes below take longer to get soggy unlike the regular or wedge cut fries.”
Shuckin’ Shack Oyster Bar
Shuckin’ Shack Oyster Bar has delicious housemade tartar to go with meals such as the Fish ‘N’ Chips basket, which is also served with fries and coleslaw. The Mahi Fingers are another excellent choice for crispy fried fish. “We just had an amazing Mother’s Day meal here.
