Love this place! I've been eating fried fish all my life and with my extended family being from Mississippi and myself growing up fishing in the Mississippi river I have been raised with high standards for fish restaurants. This place delivers. The food is always fresh and tastes amazing. The decor isn't the greatest, so i'd recommend taking it to go, but if you want delicious fried fish I'd highly recommend.

This place is not fancy, but the customer service and flavor of the food was right on. I ordered the catfish, red snapper, filet of sole and chicken wings. All delicious. The macaroni salad was basic, but the potato salad had big chunks of potato which was nice. It is a nice you buy we fry restaurant!

Was in the neighborhood and decided on fried fish for lunch. Thank you, Yelp family, for steering us to this hole in the wall gem. We ordered the Red Snapper 9-piece special and 8 oysters to go. It did take a while for us to get our food, but we didn't mind because we knew they were making our food fresh. As soon as we got into the car, we sampled the oysters and fries. The oysters, although small was quite flavorful. The oysters weren't too ocean-y tasting, just a hint. Definitely fresh oysters. Also, you can tell the oil they were using to cook the food wasn't old. When we got home, the Red Snapper was still warm. They were good thick pieces of fish and the batter wasn't thick. You can definitely taste the fish. Tartar sauce was included with our meal, but we favored the malt vinegar which we had at home. The inside of the eatery was very clean. The tables and chairs are dated, but since we were taking our food to go, we didn't care. All in all, a positive experience. No frills spot, just a good ole fish fry. If we're in the neighborhood again, we'd definitely come back.

One of the better fried fish options in LA. I like Charlie's much better than Penguin Fish down the street and others East of it. They don't skimp on the portions and all of our food was cooked perfectly. They have a large menu with lots of options. The Dinner and Special options are pretty much the same, both come with a salad, roll, and fries but the Special is larger in fish count. They have a large parking lot attached to the strip mall they're located in so parking is easy. They're to-go only and are very quick so you won't have to wait long. We chose the Orange Roughy Special with was really delicious and a huge portion of food, and the Jumbo Shrimp, which were also great and much better than some other places we have been to recently. Everything was perfectly fried. Overall a good option if you're in the mood for fish and chips. I would recommend and plan to be back in the future.

Wooooow. Really good larger portion than the typical fries fish spots. Doesn't look like much but the fish is delicious. The fried fish does give Mel's Fish Sack a run but the hush puppies do not. Lol Very much a grab and go spot , there are tables and chairs to eat in but it's not cozy, however it's not meant to be. Service is good staff are friendly. Price is right.
