Chowder Barge

There are about 10 tables and chairs at the bar, so you can sit on them. The bathroom is small but clean. The clam chowder is a bit thicker than other places, and it contains a lot of contents such as clams and potatoes. It was fun to dip the hamburger in the soup and eat it, and it was better than I thought. The salmon salad was worth the price and the quantity was good, and I enjoyed it.

Lots of sauces. Great unique location (a barge). Can be a bit heavy but they have lots of sauces. The tiki bar vibes is nice. I liked their house-made michelada.

The Chowder Barge is literally in the middle of nowhere in Long Beach at the port. To go there is either of full intention or you arrived in a boat at the docks. Is cozy and quirky and reminds me a ton of New England. The chowder was excellent. The wings were tasty. Seems to be a consistent 10-20 minute wait and always busy. But if you want to get out of LA and try something different, check it out.

Well well well what i am about to tell you should be iilegal because anyone who shares a place soo special and soo delicious is a criminal! I almost thought twice about writing this review hahaha well here it is i came down ready for some clam chowder we waited for about 10 minutes the place is literally a small barge not many tables. We grabbed the cheese burger and clam chowder on the side we could dip the burger in the chowder and i never thought it would go well together but it did! The clam chowder is soo flavorful it had tons of flavor and it was the perfect consistency of thickness. I asked for a big mug of beer and WOW i got a huge mug ice cold mug. My wife got a basket of a variety of Fried fish and shrimp the batter is soo delicious and perfectly crispy. We had a nice time and didnt spend much $60 i believe.

Amazing food the clam chowder is the best ever! Great vibes definitely feels like a cool getaway from the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles

The Chowder Barge is always a good place to eat or have a cold beer. I took a couple of coworkers from out of town and they were very surprised at an actual floating restaurant. Once inside they were very content with the menu. The two ladies working at the time were very nice and polite. The place has a lot of vintage nautical equipment enhancing that feel of being on the water. The Chowder Barge is located in a small marina and sits on the water. At the end my colleagues were happy and enjoyed their meals.

definitely one of the better barges ive been on. it’s basically like the Bosforus of the Pacific, where east meets west, harbor meets port (of LA), sky meets water, barge meets shipping container meets wannabe yacht. calamari meets coffee. chowder meets soju mojito. im there for all of it.

The clam chowder was delicious! I was so surprised to find and love a burger right in the middle of it – what a wonderful surprise! The kids' fish and chips were great, and the shrimp was good too. Unfortunately, the customer service was lacking.

This was a delightful work lunch. The place is small and very cute. It gives off a we are an establishment with "regulars " vibe" and the food was so good that you want to be counted as a regular. The servers were excellent, and the decor made this rainy day all the more bearable. Its nautical theme is tasteful. It's kind of like the nautical theme version of the shabby chic design theme. The fire place is roasting skulls for crying out loud, y'all! The chowder was the best I've had in a long time( I recently bought some from Costco. - I was desperate! Don't judge!). The creamy was just the right creamy and there were actual clams overloading the chowder. The wings were a good table share along with the seafood sampler appetizer. I'll definitely be back, and it's worth the trip to experience this if you're in the area!

Attentive and patient service, and the Chowder burger with fried clams is the ultimate comfort food on... especially on a rainy day! The ambiance is laid back and calm. They have TV's all over the joint for games and whatnot. I always enjoy coming here.

We came in Saturday around 11am finding parking in the marina was a little difficult but we finally did! It was busy so we signed in and they had some seating outside so we waited like 10min Once we got seated our waitress came by immediately and she was super nice and friendly. It was my first time so I was amazed and looking around at everything on the walls. This place is really cool! We ordered 16oz clam chowder for us to share,the fisherman platter and a burger with a side of onion rings. The chowder came out first and OMGGGG it was absolutely delicious. Thicker than I've had it usually but omg it was so good! Honestly wish I hadn't ordered the burger bc I was so full after the chowder The portions are really big! The fisherman's platter was really good, it was perfectly crispy. The fish was soft on the inside, shrimps were really yummy and the clams were good too! (First timer here, trying fried clams!) The coleslaw was delicious. The burger was huge but I didn't even take a bite because I was so full decided to take it home. The patty looked juice and home made, but the onion rings my goodness They were freaking delicious. Decently priced, definitely worth it!! Looking forward to coming back!

The Chowder Barge is real old California that's survived in the Port of Los Angeles. The food is GREAT, especially with a nice cold draft 805. I got the double clam chowder: white chowder with fried clams, soooooo good. I also got an a la carte fried fish fillet, it was perfectly fine but soon the server brought me a second, bigger one, and said the cook didn't think my first one was big enough. Wow! Two fish fillets If you love old coastal California places, don't miss the Chowder Barge

Rustic place at the docks. First thing was the ice cold beer. Also it was huge cold glass. Chowder is very good. Had the fish and chips and also very good. Portions are good and service is excellent.

A unique dining experience. This is an oldest floating restaurant in LA area. The clams chowder is their famous dish and it's a must try. Ordered the chowder burger with fries. The combinations were very interesting. The clams chowder was so good. Taste the clams in every single spoon. The service is impeccable. The entire restaurant has a unique decoration. Love it.

First time here. Parking lot seems sketchy with some abandoned cars but it is at a marina and seems safe to park. Restaurant is a barge on the water. Once inside - very cool nautical decor. Restaurant and Bar. I had a double chowder cheeseburger. A cheeseburger covered in New England clam chowder with fried clams over it. Most will probably think that sounds strange, but it was delicious at my surprise. !

This place is a hidden gem... I saw this place on another platform and decided to give this place a try. Drove from over two hours away to try this place and it did not disappoint. don't let the run down marina and the dilapidated boats in the area fool you. You go inside and it's got this rustic marine charm. The server was very welcoming and friendly. Bring your appetite when you come to this place as the food was pretty amazing. I had the chowder burger. it sounds odd, but it works. My lady had clam chowder with fried clam strips and I didn't know what I wanted to eat more. this place is worth the drive plan on a wait when you get there because it is busy. The bathrooms were small, but they were clean, which is a good sign. I am definitely a fan and will be back at this place in the near future thank you chowder barge you earned a fan.

This place is super hidden... follow the signs to the free lot... go down the ramp to the right and the entrance is on the left.... First time here, I got a house made michelada. Pretty good. I got the clam chowder in a bread bowl and my friend got the triple... the fried clams were pretty good. The bread dipped in chowder was also good. The chowder itself wasn't the best I've ever had but I tend to like it more creamy and less tasting like onion. We also got the clams that tasted more like oil and lemon, I thought the broth would taste better. The garlic bread was good for dipping but also if you get clam chowder... let's just say I used both breads for both lol We also got a basket of onion rings which were really good. Not too oily, not over powered with batter and I think the ranch is house made? Don't quote me. Service was nice and fast, we got seated right away. The whole restaurant is really cute, very pretty if you're there during sunset or get a window seat to watch the water and boats. Very cool experience and I heard it's been there for YEARS!

If it's Taco Tuesday, skip the tacos. They're okay, but not what you might expect - nothing more than iceberg lettuce, chopped tomatoes, and fish on a tortilla. It is served with salsa, but nothing else remotely like a good SoCal fish taco. (Also - if the server asks if you want green salsa, take it. It's not hot, but she doesn't know that - she's never tried it!!) Aside from simply being a fish sandwich on a tortilla, the tacos were good. Crispy white fish fried golden brown and delicious. With a side of onion rings, it was very filling. A funky dive, in a dirty, run-down marina, but the food is good. Give it a try.

Food was decent!!!... my friend loved the clam chowder service was nice and interior was funky and fun... outside marina was actually looked like a boat junkyard!!!... never seen so many boats that looked like owners hasn't been on the boat for years...

Very cool nostalgic ambience. Popular amongst the locals. We visited tonight for dinner. Our first time here. Plenty of parking and signage to find the Barge. Such a cool vibe with all the boats around. We walked in and were greeted by friendly staff. Of course had to try the clam chowder it was delicious packed with hearty clams, creamy and flavorful. Husband had the salmon plate and we shared the mussels in a delicious buttery sauce. We had a fabulous dinner.

If you're in the mood for some clam chowder ... the Chowder Barge is a must try! The location is very cool located at one of the marinas near the ports. The place is filled with mostly locals and workers from the port. Service is prompt And friendly and did I mentioned the chowder bowl is filled with clams ! The grilled cheese on sourdough was on point and definitely compliments the chowder bowl ... I opted for grilled cheese instead of bread bowl , so I'll have to try bread bowl next time ! The ambiance is very fitting of the location Next time I'll try the bread bowl

This is in the most random location and hard to find, but the food was really good. The clam chowder was thick and creamy with great flavor. The fish was so crispy on the outside but cooked beautifully on the inside. Loved the seasoning on the fries, too. We sat outside because we had our dog, and their outdoor seating area could definitely be improved.

When you arrive, be diligent about noticing signage or you may drive right past! There's lots of feral cats roaming around that were fun to spot! This barge is a real trip. The atmosphere is dated and I personally love it. The staff was welcoming and sat us right away. You've gotta get the barge burger and fried clams. The clams are absolutely perfect and the chowder is hearty and yummy. We'll definitely be back!

Its very popular due to a Tiktok video of their clam chowder cheeseburger combo. So you will likely experience a wait on the weekend (they are closes on Sunday. I had the clam chowder bowl was the best Ive had. The clams and potato were cut in bit size pieces that make it easy to enjoy. It also has bacon in it, which creates more dimension to a basic soup. My husband had the burger chowder combo and enjoyed it. The consistency was similar to biscuits and gravy. Great service you wont be disappointed.

I'm always looking for a new breakfast place to try. And on this hot Saturday morning I decided to ride my motorcycle to this restaurant by the ocean. It's not a fancy place but I enjoyed the interior decor. The service was excellent, the food was tasty and the coffee was great! It was well worth the ride.

This place is really cool! Maybe I've watched too many movies, or tv shows, but eating here, I felt like a fisherman, just stopping by at a restaurant for some food after a long day. This is a cool, nautical themed, lowkey spot to get great clam chowder. You order food and chill; they even have a nice outdoor seating area. Overall, a really pleasant experience.

Stopped in here after a quick local soup search. And I'm so glad I did. The ambience is nice chill old school pirate vibes as the restaurant is on the water. The inside is clean and well kept. The food was amazing hands down best chowder I have ever had. But what made this visit so great is the service. Karley was my server and she is so on top of things. Always coming back to check on us. Quick With the refills and her recommendations were great. She's got a great personality and awesome smile best server I have had in a long time. Thanks Karley I'll definitely be back. 10/10 this is a must try you won't regret it. Don't forget to ask for Karley!

The service efficiency is minimal U would think this is the dolphin mall in Miami at 12 pm on a Saturday the way they move Prices are really good (their saving point) Very cute decor with minimal seating Clam chowder was good Prob won't come back

Nice staff. Good food. Laid back ambiance. Huge beers. I would go back and recommend everyone check it out.

This restaurant is so fun! The building is actually on the water and the decor inside makes you want to look in every corner! Our server was so helpful. Our drinks were refilled immediately and our food arrived hot, fresh and fantastic. 10/10 would come back!

Absolutely stellar sea food ! The service was amazing and staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was eclectic and reminiscent of a sea side gift shop in the best way possible ! Love this restaurant!

This establishment is a hidden gem in the city of Wilmington. The interior is full of charming and eclectic nautical decor. A friend described it as the pirate from sponge bob's go-to spot to hang. The food was delicious- I ordered the fried clam basket which came with a spicy (horseradish?) cocktail sauce and perfectly fried clams and thick cut and well seasoned fries. My friend ordered the chowder burger which is a burger submerged in probably the best clam chowder I've personally had. My pescatarian friend subbed the burger meat for a veggie patty and reported a delicious first bite until she sadly realized the chowder had bacon. This is noted in the menu, so it was our mistake. My only two comments for feedback are 1) if possible, have a clam chowder option without bacon. This would open up this awesome dish to not only pescatarians but other non-pork eaters, and 2) improve the customer service especially for first time folks. I think even a quick run through popular menu items would be great. Overall, I had a pleasant experience dining at The Chowder Barge and finding yet another hidden gem in the city of Wilmington.

Don't let the building fool you. Yes, it's out of way. Yes, it looks a bit shaggy. HOWEVER, the food is solid. Honestly, I've heard about this place for years. I did a drive by a few years ago. And...I drove away. Big mistake. IF you enjoy New England style clam chowder, you can enjoy it here, EVERYDAY! Since my mother-in-law's fav soup is NE clam chowder, decided to venture here. Solid 5/5. We enjoyed the chowder, the namesake of the restaurant. Thick & creamy. Not overly "starchy". Notes of bacon flavor hit first. Nice sized pieces of clam meat & potato chunks. This is really good. If you name a restaurant after your clam chowder, hey it's gotta be good, right? So we split the fisherman's platter as well. Nice sized cod(?) filet, 3 crumb coated shrimp-maybe frozen(?), & several clam strips. Thick potato fries (frozen) & house-made tartar sauce & cocktail sauce. Very satisfying. Killer sauces and especially the cocktail sauce with a kick of horseradish. Finely diced veggies in a mayo based tartar sauce. Although much of this was frozen, it's prepared well, not greasy & served hot. Solid 3.5/5. Interiors have a "charming" heavy timber nautical vibe. Ample parking with railed ramps leading to the restaurant. Waitresses were friendly & quick to respond to requests. Food was delivered quickly. Will return since it's my MIL's fav soup. The chowder is VERY good.

1st time here. Did not know. Process. Sign in and have a seat outside. Nina was out hostess / waitress/ server / really busy girl. We ordered the 2 and 3 pc fish n chips, w appetizers of wings, fried clams, and cups of chowder. All delicious, hot n fresh. Fish cooked right as were clams n wings. Ambiance was really cool. Be prepared to have a wait. It's worth it. Thank you Nina.

10/10 best clam chowder I've ever had It's a freaking floating restaurant on the ocean! What better ambiance? Karly provides top tier customer service something had to come by these days if you stop by ask for her! You won't regret it!!

This is a great hole-in-the-wall type place. The fish & chips were awesome and the service was friendly. We'll be back the next time we're in the area!

While moving our kid into CSULB we had some time to kill and we wanted clam strips and found this GREAT hole in the wall place. Not much to look at from the outside but kind a cool inside; not temperature cool because it lacked air conditioning but luckily AC isn't really needed along the coast. Service and food were really delicious with ample serving of nice sized clam strips with a good amount of steak fries. I also ordered onion rings and it was a killer mountain of rings and my poor gall bladder was working overtime to digest all this fried food. If you're nearby I highly suggest the Chowder Barge and enjoy the good food that doesn't break the wallet. We'll be back for more next time we're in town to see how well the kid's doing with the studies and hopefully not partying too much.

Service was ABYSMAL. We were pointed to a table and we sat down, and nobody came by with menus so we grabbed our own. Twenty minutes later, nobody had stopped by our table to greet us. In fact, we attempted to flag down both servers but they actively made eye contact and looked away/kept walking by. We had to raise our voices to get one server to finally give us the time of day, and then she told us the other server would be by. Both servers were so rude. Our drinks took 15 minutes after ordering to receive, two of our party got their orders messed up, and overall we felt like it was a burden for us to be there. They brought one silverware for all five of us? Are we supposed to pass the fork around? I also couldn't help but notice the misogynistic note on the front of the menu about watching your language because there are "ladies" present. Eye roll. The food, when it actually came, was pretty decent. Our whole lunch took 2.5 hours... pretty crazy. Definitely will never be back.

Whether it's for a date night or maybe you just simply have a craving for some good fish n chips, The Chowder Barge is your best bet! It's technically within the border of Wilmington and Long beach, hidden away within the industrial buildings in the area making it a great lowkey spot to dine. Not to mention the view is beautiful as it's located on a dock near a bunch of small boats making it a simple yet unique dining experience! The atmosphere is very cozy and cute inside, they have windows facing the water so you can gaze at the sunset while you dine. Regarding the service I have no complaints, our server that night was attentive and served our food and drinks to us in a timely manner. Onto the food, i've never had fish n chips before this night and I was honestly quite delighted with my meal. Steak fries were good, fish was nice and fresh and the tartar sauce paired well with my food. Not to mention they have alcohol as well! My boyfriend and I opted for a pitcher of beer while we enjoyed our meal. Affordable, lowkey and delicious?! I'll definitely be bringing my business back to this local establishment and I suggest you try it out as well.

Hey Yelpers!!! This is one of the coolest places I've ever eaten. Not in a fancy way, but in a "I'm in a marina on a barge with a lot of industrial stuff going on and I've never seen this and I couldn't be more excited!" kinda way. This is the kinda place that if someone didn't bring you here, or you didn't intentionally look for it, you'd never find it. The restaurant itself has inside and outdoor seating. There are lots of windows looking out to the marina, some other way you will have a view. I enjoyed that they didn't have music blaring to "entertain" the guests. I could hear my wife speaking over the gentle clanging of the sailboats' rigging. There was the occasional train horn also, but not often. While the restaurant looks like it has been here a while, it appears well kept. The menu has a quite a few enticing options at a good price. You can look at the menu pics to see what they have. We ordered the steamed clams appetizer, the Triple Chowder (chowder in a sourdough bowl with fried clams on top), and salad with swordfish. The steamed clams were very good. The broth had a garlicky hint to it that wasn't overpowering. It was piping hot and comes with 4 large pieces of garlic bread that accompanied it perfectly. Lots of juicy clams, as well. The swordfish steak on the salad was excellent. Seasoned and cooked just right, and an awesome sized piece of fish for the cost of the add on. The salad bed was huge and we couldn't finish it. I didn't leave any of the fish though. It would be a great option as a dinner entree, which starts at 5pm. The chowder. Oh, the chowder. It was instantly one of the top two I've had anywhere. Thick, creamy, buttery, and loaded with clams. The fried clam topper was so good, as well. The dough bowl was nice but would be just as good with the double chowder, which skips the dough bowl. As we sat here, we were already planning on who we could bring back. As for the service, they did great. Very friendly and attentive. The food came out relatively quickly. I can't recommend this place enough. We will definitely be back when we are in the area and will be bringing friends. Also, if you have a well-behaved doggo, they can chill with you on the dockside seating. Enjoy!!!

It makes me a bit sad to go back to a restaurant I have told everyone I know, "they serve the best chowder in Southern California". The Chowder Barge no longer does that. The chowder had the consistency of a hearty breakfast serving of oatmeal, and nobody took the trouble to slice up the clams appropriately. A good chowder has small, vaguely chunky bits of clams, to start with. The clams in my bowl were just pulled out of the shell by someone who saw that as "just as good", and put into the chowder as long, literally unchewable strips. The flavor wasn't what you get in a super chowder, which they used to serve, and the broth used to be an actual liquid. This chowder was "stiff" enough that if I had a spoonful, the place where I scooped remained as if I were digging somewhere in the earth. Plus side of this is, the fried clam strips on top of my bowl were tender and had a nice flavor. The location is not good. The filthy saleboats that line the dock are nothing you'd want to look at, they are obviously never used. So good-bye, Chowder Barge, there was not a thing that would get us back unless changes are made.

We came here today for the second time, as we thoroughly enjoyed it so much the first time. Warning: it's easy to miss the driveway if you aren't paying attention. It's the third driveway past Anaheim and Henry Ford- there will be a sign up high the says "chowder barge"... if you pass it, it can be a hassle to turn around. Once you get there, there is plenty of free parking. You walk past a plank over the water... both times we've been there, we've seen stray cats scavenging in the rocks. We fully expected to have to wait for a table since it was a Sunday, but there was no problem finding a table at about 11am. The clam chowder is a must! My husband and I both agreed that it is the absolute best either of us has ever had...anywhere...It's thick and delicious. The fish and chips are also wonderful. I would also suggest the onion rings... so good! Reasonable prices. On sundays they serve breakfast and clam chowder until 11am. Lunch menu and clam chowder from 11am till closing. Really unique place with a super chill vibe. I would highly recommend for a Sunday outing- just like we did today.

Placed an order over the phone. It was ready pretty quickly. -Fisherman's platter. 3.5/5 -Fried cod fish sandwich and fries. 3.5/5 -Fried clams. Nice and crispy but didn't feel overly breaded. 4/5 -Double clam chowder. Clam chowder doesn't taste like your normal clam chowder. It was more potato-y. It was very flavorful though, and it was delicious with the fried clams. 4/5 -Tuna melt. Pepperjack and American. 3/5 -Fish and chips. Nice and crispy. Tartar sauce was good. 5/5 They charge a 3.5% fee for using a card. I wish they said something because I had cash. Overall, it was tasty, but it was also quite expensive.

Yummmm one of the best places to have clam chowder in SoCal. Service is always great the decor is eclectic. I believe this is the only floating restaurant in SoCal and I love it. The chowder is always tasty along with the fried clams it's a match made in heaven.. if you haven't been to #thechowderbarge what are you waiting for. Also got a free ice cream sundae #birthdaytreat . Already planning my next time for the best chowder....

Chowder is 5 stars made with bacon it is more flavorful than Seattle chowder. Fish was great not a fan of tarter sauce tastes like they mix it with mustard and I could.not approve. The location is wacky you park in the parking lot (free) and walk the plank to get here.

Really love this place. The chowder is awesome, and super rich. Onion rings are great. And the beer is *cold*! You are most definitely on a barge. Lots of nautical or tiki related kitsch but it all adds to the ambiance. Service can be a little spotty if they are busy but still attentive. The barge lists slightly so after a Captain's Pacifico stumbling seemed "normal". At least that's the story I'm sticking too...!

Service was great! Food was good and the atmosphere is one of a kind. Finding it for the first time isn't easy, but once you know. You know.

This review is going to be short and to the point. Clam chowder was creamy and delicious as usual. The Cod fish sandwich on brioche bun was good. The fish was piping hot and tasty, I would've preferred the fish to cover the entire bread verse just the middle half. I felt i ate half bun and half fish BUT it was good. Service was friendly and prices were fair.

Great food! 2nd time going there and definitely won't be the last. Great atmosphere idk why people complain about the service was crazy busy and had no issues. Got drinks right away food arrived in a timely manner even though they were extremely busy on a Sunday afternoon

The chowder is as as good as it gets! Paired with a cold beer! It is a little off the beaten path, but definitely worth the visit.

This is a fun and unique restaurant located on a barge in the harbor! The onion rings are fries are super crunchy and flavorful. Our server was very friendly. I ordered the Double Chowder Burger, which is a hamburger swimming in a bowl of clam chowder. All freshly prepared and excellently seasoned. 10/10 would come again.

Fantastic. The best chowdah around, excellent house-made micheladas. Fried clams were in point. Ranch and tartar sauces were house made and delicious. Small interior but it's a barge, so what more do you want?

It's all about the ambience here at the Chowder Barge, the only permanent restaurant on a floating boat in the LA area. It is located at a working marina, and it's important to follow the signs to the appropriate parking lot. You then have to walk through to the marina to get to the right berth. It is surprisingly large inside, with a multi-sided bar and a lot of booths for eating inside. It also has some seating outside and quite a few folks chose that option on a beautiful day. The greeter let us choose our indoor booth since it wasn't full, and came around with water once we asked for it. The go-to dish here is the clam chowder ($7 for a cup and $10 for a bowl). My wife shared a bowl, and it was too much. It was good, with a lot of clams and tender potatoes. It also had A LOT of roux (flour and butter), which tends to mess with our stomachs a bit so we couldn't finish it (a cup would have plenty). A 1 pc fish and chips is $12. Fish was good, probably a cheaper white fish like haddock but the batter wasn't too thick and wasn't overly greasy. The fries were indeed the chip-type (steak fries, perhaps a bit over the extra crispy line when deep frying)..delicious with ketchup. I got the Fisherman's platter ($22), which came with the same fish, 3 breaded deep-fried shrimp (medium size and butterflied), and fried clams. The clams and shrimp were the standard, from frozen deep-fried seafood that you get from a restaurant wholesale distributor (nothing to write home about). All came with an excellent cole slaw, and tartar sauce. Mine came with a really good cocktail sauce (plenty of horseradish to give a sinus clearing buzz). All-in-all, the food was well executed...would recommend the fish'n'chips again. There are sandwiches and burgers on the menu, along with different beers and mixed drinks (micheladas seemed to be especially popular while we were there). Kari was our server and she checked up on us the right amount of time. You pay at the table and there is a 3.% CC charge, so paying cash would be best. It's definitely a unique experience and one worth doing at least once.

Checked this spot off the list and it surely didn't disappoint. As a first timer, the clam chowder is a must. For the full experience, it's all about it being served in a bread bowl. Ok, it's huge and the bread is swimming in a bowl of chowder. Yes!!! Not only a unique presentation, but from first bite, I was sold. One of the best (maybe the best) clam chowder I've ever had. Just for variety, we also shared a basket of fish. When it comes to fried fish, this is the spot. Perfectly crisp outside, but overall very light batter, and buttery soft fish inside, yum. Served with fries and coleslaw plus dipping sauce. It was so much food, but leftovers heated up nicely. Located on the water, it's very unique. Kinda hidden and hard to find, but GPS nailed the location. Free parking a major plus. Service was great. Felt like we had a the staff helping us at one point. Definitely returning here. It can get very crowded with over an hour wait. Plan accordingly!

Tucked away in a location unknown to me in my 33 years living in the area, we found this gem tonight. After a satisfying dinner of fish and chips (subbed onion rings) and clam chowder, we are finishing our captain mugs of ice cold draft beer on the patio area watching the sun set while a breeze cools the area. Our waitress, Raquel, was lovely and we were well taken care of throughout our meal. A great little nostalgic date night.

Fun restaurant on a barge in a marina easy parking fun atmosphere inside and outside seating all types of food great for parties of four or less.

Got BLOAT on the FLOAT! ...by the BOAT! Work brought me to the Port of Long Beach, and this floating restaurant was nearby for lunch. It was a little difficult to find at first, since you drive through industrial streets + railroads and not through shopping/restaurant/commercial areas, but we eventually followed a sign to take us down by the water. Standard fast food. We ordered fish and chips, and you can pick how many fish you want in your dish. Felt a tad pricey so we opted to one fish, BUT it came out like potatoes with a side of fish LOL Next time I'd opt for two fish to balance out the ratio. Even though it was toasty outside... I HAD to try the chowder for the name. It was a little too thick & chunky for my taste, but overall the food got me nice and bloat.. (and pst pst a lil zzz food coma before returning to work LOL) Fun atmosphere and cool decor. Restaurant was a bit warm, even with fans. We ate around noon and folks around us were already enjoying nice cool beers :) Service was chill, friendly, and quick. Overall, I liked the boat and water view for a unique experience!
