For our birthdays this year, my wife and I decided we would be on a mission to find the best fish n chips in the Dallas area. Now, I confess, I have not yet visited every place in the area that has candidates for the best. But after visiting another three locations, I feel qualified to make a few observations. We chose three of the often top rated Fish 'n Chip locations in the DFW area, in hopes that we would find something better than our current top two. We went in with a group of six, each of us with evaluation forms and writing utensils. We evaluated the fish, the chips, the tartar sauce, malt vinegar and other add-ons. We considered the ambiance, the quantity as well as quality of the food, the value received, and the overall experience.
Every place we went had something to commend it. You don't survive long in the post COVID-19 restaurant world serving bad food or lacking creativity. But I can say this with confidence. If you are looking for the best (so far for me anyway) fish and chips dining experience, Harwood Arms is your best bet. Easily the most authentic English pub environment, with absolutely excellent fish n chips and great service - you don't want to miss Harwood Arms.
Because my phone knows I love fish n chips, it keeps pushing articles to me about lists of best places to get them in the DFW area. I've seen enough of these now that I have tried most of them and know that while many of them are good in their own right. That being said, any list that doesn't put Harwood Arms at the top of the list (or maybe second) is missing the point. Try it, you'll thank me afterwards.
