I’m not one to head off to a fish and chips for dinner. But my good friend mentioned how good it was, I had to check it out. Thanks DJ!. Located so close to the water, you can actually get that beachside feeling. I got the special – didn’t think too much. Man was I surprised – this place was amazing.

Decided to lunch at Sea on Quay today and chose their grilled Blue Grenadier fish with Chunky Chips and homemade tartare sauce (no unknown additives) & a piece of lemon for $11.90 (yes, I spent the extra dollar to eat healthy as opposed to battered fish). Seriously one of the best Fish & Chip shops in Melbourne and visibly spotlessly clean. The fish was tasty and the chunky chips were to die for, I was very impressed. Sian, the head chef & I assume owner was very friendly and he served my meal steaming hot & within 15 minutes of ordering (I was his first customer at 11:55am). The establishment by 12:15pm was abuzz with about 12 customers either waiting for their order or in the process of ordering, or eating - always a sign of great food.
The Juror's Verdict: Food 4.85/5, Service Provision 5/5, Will I return: Yes, definitely & soon
Update: Aug 14, 2017 - I've eaten here almost weekly ever since my first visit (above) & seriously the range of food's quality just never seems to change - it's consistently great.

Excellent fish and chips. The out of the main thoroughfare shop is welcoming and clean and the notice board advertises the special of the day and the price board identifies the origin of each fish which is either Australia or NZ. Fish is cooked beautifully and the chips are tasty and just the right amount. Worth the walk from the CBD.
