Metro Detroit’s Best Fish and Chips | Eater Detroit

"There’s much to appreciate about this Plymouth bistro from its modern, globally influenced interior and a menu inspired by Southern coastal flavors that features a raw bar, creative small plates, and seafood dishes. Come for happy hour, weekend brunch, and dinner service. And of course, give the fish and chips here some love. Choose between beer-battered cod served as big slabs with hand-cut fries, slaw, and remoulade, or go for the pan-fried lake perch served with twice-fried potatoes, rainbow carrots, and Old Bay aioli. Drop by during happy hour to take advantage of buck-a-shuck oysters for $1.25 to $2 for a true seafood feast." - Serena Maria Daniels

We loved our food and our server, Jeff! Absolutely get the crawfish hush puppies. Also recommend the shrimp and grits.... wow! Medium spicy but so worth it!

My girlfriends and I came here for Sunday brunch and were excited for a fun morning out. My friend got a Bloody Mary and said it was good. I ordered the buttermilk waffle with berries and cream and a side of house potatoes. The waffle was not buttery and soft like I thought it was going to be, it was dry and if it wasn’t for the cream would be like the Sahara. I should have asked for butter but didn’t. The potatoes lacked so much flavor, our server said they were seasoned so I assumed they would have some seasoning on them. Nothing, nada, not even salt and they were kind of burnt. Smidge disappointing. My other two friends both got the salmon BLT. They said it didn’t knock their socks off, but it was good. They said it was a good price for salmon. My other friend got the 2 eggs, bacon (extra crispy), house potatoes and wheat toast. She said it was just ok, and they gave her butter. Our server was nice, friendly, said after we paid we could stay and chat if we wanted, but never came back to ask if we wanted anything else. All in all, it was good, but not amazing. We had a reservation and were seated right away.

I wish we had taken pictures of the strip steak and the perch dinner, and well you know, when placed in front of you, we just had to dig in. The highlight was not only the food, it was the chef Kyle who was not only the fastest oyster shucker we’ve ever seen, and gave great tips on what were the best menu items! Ask for him when you come! He made our visit outstanding!

Really great restaurant with great service! The food was delicious, and the space small but very well designed. The whitefish dip and salmon BLT was AMAZING!

Thank you, Sardine Room and our server Conyell, for providing a great brunch experience. We chose Sardine Room, based upon a previous visit, to cap off a birthday weekend celebration for my wife. My wife loves brunch, and the Sardine delivered a great dining experience and service . Our server, Conyell, provided excellent attentive service and excellent recommendations on dishes. His dish recommendations were spot on. I think we attempted to try everything on the menu, lol, not really, but what we ordered was delicious. We will be back to Sardine Room in the future, and I would definitely recommend it and make sure you have a reservation

The Sardine Room has quickly become my favorite place to dine for both important occasions and impromptu visits to the bar. I’ve had their shrimp and grits 3 (maybe 4?) times and it’s always, always amazing. I can tell the chef has spent time in the South and knows how to make a good roux! The Captains Bloody is a treat and the steak in the steak and frites is seasoned incredibly well. I am trying something new today, the pork belly hash, and I’m sure it will be delicious!! Service is always quick and; everyone is very friendly as well.

My partner and I enjoyed eating here on two consecutive nights! We are staying near by in Plymouth and found it to have the best values and menu in the area. Each visit we at something different and totally enjoyed it. Seafood cobb salad, Perch, shrimp and grits and the 4 grain bowl all have our seal of high approval. The first night, server Brian even treated us to a complementary strawberry shortcake when we told him that we are engaged for a July wedding! Highly recommend!

I had a tough one wondering what I was going write here. They do not accept reservations which their happy hour runs from four to six and they are always busy. If you want to eat before 7:00 I advise you to get there before 6:00. The table we had was shaking and wobbly and during the meal one of our drinks fell right off the table. It took us a while to get that cleaned up. There was a smell in the place that was obviously fish and it is the Sardine Room but it was overwhelming. The food was very good I had the fish and chips which was fresh and cooked very well. My companion had the sauteed Perch which they enjoyed very much. The wait staff was not very attentive. They left our appetizer dishes on the table when they brought our entrees. Finally when the table got cluttered I moved our empty dishes to an empty table. Even on a good day the best I could give this restaurant is a three and a half. I doubt that I will return. Although there are many good restaurants in that area I'll be checking them out. Stay tuned. Dinner for two with a couple of drinks $100.

I came here with my team from work for a dinner and I will say all of the food we had was 10/10. We ordered the calamari, the beer mussels, and the shishito peppers to share amongst all of us. I personally ordered the fries with the aioli and the oysters. The drinks were all great, the staff was very kind and informative, and I will absolutely be coming back for more! The restaurant has table seating as well as bar seating. The service was quick. They had even have different specials each day of the week. One of my new favorite spots in downtown Plymouth

Great place to brunch! Came here with my best friend. We ordered the funday and split the bottle. Normally comes with orange juice but we substituted OJ for grapefruit juice. For brunch, I ordered the smoked salmon plate, my husband got the burger, and my best friend got the breakfast sandwich. Everything was on point! Loved the smoked salmon plate especially the dill cream cheese. The everything bagel was toasted to perfection. We opted to sit outside. Nice day to be outside! Service was great too.

We were attracted to the Raw Bar offered here so we decided to check them out for happy hour and dinner. Both menus coupled with the cocktail menu helped us quickly settle in for our visit. The parking situation offers several surface public lots in the immediate area, a walk of a block is to be expected. The restaurant is basic yet tastefully decorated, offering several seating areas. Our waiter was quiet and reserved but helpful and attentive. We selected several shareables, entrees and cocktails. Everything was prepared and presented well, each item offering freshness and decent flavor. We ended the evening with a slab of bumpy cake and a reasonable check. Would definitely try other items next time we are in the area.

We decided to try The Sardine Room for my wife's birthday dinner. We started out with the shishito peppers which were excellent. For entrees, my wife had the grain bowl and I had the pan-fried perch; also excellent. The ambience is sort of a neighborhood bar feel. Although there weren't many other diners (on a freezing cold Monday night), the noise level was still quite high. Service was prompt and friendly.

I was at happy hour .I love raw oysters, price point for oysters were fabulous . The young man is the oyster shucker was very knowledgeable and answered a lot of questions that I've always wondered about oysters. Service was Bar which I enjoyed sitting at the bar You must be there early if you wanna do happy hour . That ambience was really nice as several restaurants connected to it so you still have a variety of different places if you want to continue to go to different restaurants.

I love the sardine room. They have an amazing happy hour and I also love Sunday brunch. I was having the hardest time deciding what to order for brunch because it all soundes so good, but when the people next to me got lobster avocado toast I knew that was it for sure and I don't regret my decision. They'll even throw a poached egg on top. We got a few oysters too and they came with all the fixings. I'd recommend reservations

We had such a lovely Sunday brunch - they don't take reservations for the 11am-1pm rush, but we were able to get a 10:45am reservation which was just perfect! Parking was easy right outside. When you walk in, you immediately see the fresh seafood on ice and everything looked beautiful. I can't wait to come back for dinner and oysters - they had such a nice selection. We were greeted warmly and seated by the host, and our server was great even though it was packed. The classic bloody Mary was perfect with a fresh, cold shrimp on the side, and my Mom's mimosa was perfectly balanced - not too much OJ, not too sweet. The food was really fantastic - just cooked and seasoned so well. My Mom had the breakfast fries which was so good with a very yummy sauce, bacon crumbles and an egg. I had the crab cakes benedict, which I highly recommend. The eggs were poached perfectly, hollandaise was creamy and savory, and the crab cakes were mostly fresh lump crab just barely held together. Delicious. It comes with breakfast potatoes, which were good but not great - but I ordered a side of their fries, and I'm so glad i did. They're very thin and crispy and dusted with this amazing spice blend that has just the slightest bit of curry powder in it, I think, and it went so nice with the seafood and gave them a unique yummy flavor that made me want to keep eating them. Delicious. I can't wait to come back again.

Dreadful. For an alleged seafood place the seafood offerings were either minimal or bad. Oysters were mostly from the west coast where harvests have been contaminated by algae, acidic waters, etc. Seafood grill platter featured out-of-date grouper and three tiny, non-descript . Alleged strip steak was not a strip steak. It was just all so very mediocre. So disappointing, we drove a bit to get there.

The Sardine Room is a spacious seafood focused restaurant in Downtown Plymouth. They have plenty of indoor seating but outdoor as well, Happy Hour is only offered indoor though. We were seated quickly and over server came around quickly as well. The oysters were $1.25 each on Happy hour and they were from VA. They came with a cocktail sauce and you had to order mignonette separately for $0.50 each, they have a house made mignonette called Hogwash that I loved. Along with 3 dozen oysters we had fries which were perfectly crunchy and light and calamari. I am tough to impress when it comes to calamari so when I say these were great then trust me, they were great. Perfect crunch, great sauce, not too fishy or oily. I'll definitely be back for those. All together, I will be back especially for the happy hour!

It's been about 8 years since we've dined here and this may be our last. I remember the food being much better. We ordered the fish and chips. You can pick one or two pieces of fish ($15 vs $19). It comes with "hand cut fries" and house slaw. We also ordered the calamari. The fish was good - seasoned well and the batter was not heavy. However, the portion is small. The "hand cut fries" are more like shoestring fries. They were like "crumbs" where I couldn't pick them up and ate them with a fork! The slaw was ok. The calamari ($14) was extremely disappointing. The rings were thinner than a rubber band and chewy. And all that sauce was absolutely unnecessary. Was it to mask the unappetizing calamari rings? The service was fine but overall, not impressed.

One of my favorite happy hours in the metro detroit area. Literally, everything on their happy menu is delicious. Sadly the buck a shuck oysters are now 1.25, but they're still such a great deal. The ambience is nice--think date night. It is located in the middle of downtown plymouth so it is perfect a post-dinner stroll. However, being downtown does mean parking can be a little difficult--there is a free structure, though! The staff are always so kind and efficient. I have only had positive experiences here!

Excellent happy hour menu. Oysters are only $1.25-2.00 each. French fries are $3 and come with tasty housemade ketchup. The $6 Shishito Peppers are enough to share with a table of 3-4 people. I ordered the Caesar Salad with Salmon from the happy hour menu, which lacked flavor. The piece of salmon is also on the small side. A decent deal for $11, but I recommend sticking with the oysters and appetizers for happy hour and ordering from the regular menu if you're still hungry and want an entree. I tried a bite of my friend's Wild Coastal Shrimp & Grits from the dinner menu. The grits were rich and creamy, with a large portion of shrimp and andouille sausage. Highly recommended. Overall, Sardine Room is a good option in downtown Plymouth. I will return for the happy hour and to try more seafood options.

Came here on a Saturday evening for dinner date night. We initially were hesitant to come since they didn't take reservations, and we didn't know what the wait would be like. Be prepared to search for parking on either the street or the small parking structure behind the restaurant. Once we parked and walked inside, we were literally seated immediately. That was such a relief. From there, everything continued on a high note. The service was spectacular. The food was excellent. Everything we ordered was impressively delicious. Although, I wouldn't order the craw fish hushpuppies again, I do see myself returning back here for another meal.

I travel to Plymouth quite often, and this is my default spot for excellent food. They have delightful cocktails--especially the spiced old fashioned and Mexican firing squad--and their fish and chips are exquisite. You have an option between one or two cuts of fish; I requested one my first time, and I regretted not getting a second. The fish is excellent, and the fries that come with the fish are delicious as well. I saw another review speak ill of the fries, but I have to say, they are some of the best I've had with fish and chips. I plan to make the sardine room an obligatory stop anytime I visit Plymouth.

You can't go wrong with a Hot Stacks burger and a beer at The Sardine Room. It always hits the spot. Service was great and fast this time! Restaurant is always clean.

Date night done right! The outdoor patio on a warm summer night is an absolute vibe and the food is very reasonably priced while also being fresh and delicious. We came back within the week after our first time dining here and we definitely plan to be regulars here now! Service on both our visits here has been great and we're looking forward to coming back many more times. The scallops are an absolute must order, and so is the mixed seafood grill along with the snow crab claws, but so far it seems Sardine Room can do no wrong as everything has been a hit so far!

The ambience of this restaurant is great. We love the local feel and the friendly, fast service. We really wanted to love the food but it was subpar. The best thing we had was the cheeseboard. Ordered the Waggy burger, fresh catch mahi mahi, seafood Cobb salad, and the captains basket (?). Mahi was flavorless even though it was blackened, cheese grits were bland, Cobb salad was a regular salad, and the fried food in the captains basket was nothing special. There are lots of amazing places to eat in Plymouth so hard to say if we'd come back. Maybe for some fresh oysters next time.

Finally had the chance to eat here recently and what a treat. Our server couldn't have been nicer! The food was delicious, the beer cold and the vibe was upbeat. We had the perch, the steak and the jambalaya. Delicious! I can't wait to return for dinner or brunch.

I had a pleasant experience here! It was my first time here. My friend and I came on a Wednesday night - there was no wait for a table. The restaurant is super cute! I ordered the seafood Cobb salad. It was huge! It was also really good and decent amount of seafood. My friend got the crab cakes, pork taco, and beef taco. She enjoyed her food!

This review is for the happy hour only. By far this is the most generous happy hour in the area. Most restaurants only offer one or two apps. The Sardine Room offers several items to choose from. They always have a featured cocktail, a red and White House wine and Pabst Blue Ribbon($2). We ordered the cocktail and a glass of red wine to drink. Since happy hour was going to be our dinner, we ordered 10 oysters, fries, a Caesar salad with blackened chicken and shishito peppers, spaced throughout our time there. The oysters are always fresh and good size. The fries taste good but way too many "crumbs"/shorties. The Caesar salad is generous but way over dressed and wilted. And don't waste the anchovies, ask if people want them. The shishitos were great. The few missteps won't prevent us from enjoying future happy hours at the Sardine Room.

One of the last buck-a-shuck establishments left! This review is only a day post-visit, and some of my other cheap oyster joints (Tom's Oyster Bar, Voyager) have long canceled this Happy Hour tradition. Their HH cocktail special is usually tasty, as well as the grilled shishito peppers, mussels, hand cut fries, and $2 PBR. What really shines for me, surprisingly, is their take on jambalaya and shrimp and grits. Both are surprisingly tasty for a non-Cajun restaurant! The jambalaya is loaded with shrimp and sausage, and the rice base is flavorful and deep. My favorite, however, is the shrimp and grits. A generous portion of smooth, creamy grits is smothered with a rich and spicy gravy and peppered with plenty of shrimp, sausage, and Fresno chilies. So damn good every damn time!

We do not believe the majority of the fish is served fresh here. We ordered the mussels and believe they were "pre-steamed" because they were very chewy and tasted off. Blackened shrimp was just grilled precooked shrimp. Fish and chips were not flaky but tough and flavorless. The only saving grace was the fries. Service was also mediocre and not attentive or appreciative of our business. I do not recommend.

Used to love sardine room! Tonight, not so much. Waited 10 minutes for server to greet table/take order. Started with appetizers and cocktails. Old bay crab fries came out first-- dish varied in temp from Luke warm to hot- fries were mostly over cooked to a crisp, making one wonder how old they were! Drinks came several min after fries and again, not cold. Then, peel and eat shrimp- weird texture like it had been rapidly defrosted or sitting too long in water. Server never asked how anything was, despite only 2 of the 1/2 pound of shrimp being consumed. We are unlikely to return to this old favorite:/

I love Seafood so I thought this would be a great place to stop for dinner. We had a short wait for outside dining. I was happy to see they had various heaters going throughout the front patio area. Looking over the menu I thought we might have to leave. There were no Gluten Free offerings marked. After checking with my server he informed me that they did have various items that were gluten free. So if that is something you need as well feel free to dine here. I have various other allergies, and was able to find something to fit my needs. I went with the Seafood Cobb Salad. Although it came out with onion on it and had to be sent back. They did fix it quickly and brought me out another one. This salad was delicious. The Crayfish and Bay Scallops were delicious. Sitting here writing this review I am already dying to go back to eat it again. I was even able to get a side of potatoes unseasoned. My husband decided on the Captains Platter, since he was really in the mood for Fish n Chips and this was the closest thing to that. He thought it was good, would have loved more fish though. He also thought the fries could have been crispier they were pretty soft. Good wine/beer offerings as well. I really enjoyed the NZ Sauvignon Blanc. Ended the night with a decadent Spanish Coffee... Ok, maybe two. Make sure you get one.

I have been coming here for so many years, I had so many good meals here but sadly today I may just had my last visit. Let's talk about what it had in its hay days, the good drinks, excellent seafood, packed bars with laughter and conversations. Today however, after one glance of the menu I was already put off. Half of the menu was over priced bar food. Drink menu has pretty much nothing stands out. When my food came, the reality started to hit hard. The quality has gone downhill so much, the average beer pup I went to last week had better food. Needless to say the meal was filled with disappointment. My feeling was hurt like the sand in the oyster, it just lingers in my mouth tasting bitter. It's time to really say goodbye to seafood louie, like how it said goodbye to the menu long time ago. I regretted not coming here more often in its prime. But I also realized all good things must come to an end, so grab whatever has left in your glass and cheer. At least I was here for my birthday.

The staff was pretty unfriendly and unhelpful during the frustrating reservation process, so I was already irritated going in, but the dinner wasn't enough to redeem it and we likely won't be back. The place is very... chaotic? The servers seemed to be running around crazed, and the place is LOUD. Mostly, the food was fine and unremarkable, but the one standout was oysters that were absolutely outstanding- so fresh and delicious! I don't recommend the dinner experience, but I could recommend going just for cocktails and oysters.

The service the food in the ambiance is always consistent. We normally take our guess to either the sardine room campari's or Fiamma and we and they are never disappointed.

Took my Fiancé out for our monthly date day and also to celebrate her birthday. We have always wanted to try this place but we have a small dog and he's not allowed on most patios in Plymouth. He was at his daycare facility so we finally got our chance. We started with a drink, she got the Mayflower, and I had a Green Zebra from Founders. Both were fantastic. Our server Ashley was also very polite and attentive. We chose to split the platter royals and it did not disappoint. Oysters, shrimp and Snow Crab claws! Everything was fresh, and the dipping sauces were decadent. Can't wait to come back and try some of the other offerings!

The restaurant has a nice ambiance to it. The dining room was clean and the wait staff was very friendly and attentive. Now to my Grain Bowl... Very Delicious! It's a cold dish aside from the salmon but it is very tasty and I feel like I was eating a very healthy selection. I'll be back to try other options.

First timer!!! This place was on point!! Everything was so fresh & so delicious! There was a wait for the outdoor patio so we chose to sit inside & were seated right away. I was surprised at how busy they were on a Thursday. Idk about outside, but inside they were social distancing. All staff wore masks. Our waitress was very polite, helpful & attentive. The bus boys were even great. The food was really delicious. I ordered the brick chicken. It really wasn't what I was expecting and just ok. However, the crawfish hush puppies were delicious! The fried green tomatoes were fried a little hard but that didn't bother me. I also had the raw oysters and every sauce that they came along with. Both me and my mother REALLY enjoyed them. I would venture to say they were the best I've had. Oh and let's not forget about the amazing clam chowder! I mean, how soon is too soon to go back? Try the drinks and let your taste buds lead you. You won't be disappointed

Well! I had high hopes! Hostess Stand supposed to be welcoming and friendly, happy to see you. Nope. Waitress was nice though. Espresso martini tasted like a watered down Coffee drip tray. Yuck. Was really looking forward to my bagel board but didn't realize I needed the jaws of life to actually eat it. My whole mouth and throat is cut up from trying to chew it. The salmon is rolled up in the prep work I assume and was dried out on the out side. Not worth the money or the pain but at least I got my jaw workout! Bill was $28 I gave them $40 and had to ask for my change which took a long long while. None of our food was served at the same time either which sucks completely. Seems to me sardine room needs to up their standards to match their price!

Happy hour is a fun time and the crowds are definitely enjoying the deals. You can get oysters for $1.25 each. I want to love the restaurant more since getting lots of seafood options and oysters on a menu in Michigan is lacking however, the seafood we got was only so-so. Grouper tasted bland, captains platter was all fried food and the salmon added to a caesar salad was a tiny size portion (think of 1 breadstick size). The fried chicken sandwich had (surprisingly) a good amount of spice! I think my friend liked the crab cake. We were interested in the perch but based on the poor reviews, decided against it. Solid 3 star place, some okay items some not so great. I will hope they can up their game so I can give a better review next time I come.

It was "ok"...service was not over the top. Lindsey waited on us. We felt like a bother to her. My friend ordered a hard cider and it was flat. The waitress argued that it had just been opened so it should be fine. We ordered: Lobster Gnocchi-very good Short rib sliders-very good Perch-good

To start out I absolutely love the the ambiance of the place. It's super on trend for the food they serve. The staff was very good and delightful to have around. The food for the most part is good. But they do loose a star for me because I got the platter of cold seafood. It came with clams and oysters shrimp and lobster. The lobster was just idk. Kinda gross. Almost like it was boiled way to long. It was dry and tasteless. The rest was absolutely delicious. I also could be biased because I do live in the south so no one beats seafood there. Although for Michigan it was great. Our appetizer was tasteful and our dessert that they grabbed from next door was great. We did order mussels of the happy hour menu and they were okay. But not the best I've had. So in conclusion I've come to terms with this place being a hit or miss.

I've been wanting to try The Sardine Room for awhile and they did not disappoint!! Fresh seafood, oysters, and delicious craft beers...need I say more!! I love a good oyster bar so my friend and I decided to drop in for some oysters, drinks, and a bite to eat after yoga in the park. They're typically pretty busy but luckily there was no wait for indoor or outdoor seating when we visited around 7:30 pm on a Wednesday evening. I've noticed most restaurants in Downtown Plymouth have a longer wait for outdoor seating. The outdoor seating area is very pretty, especially at night with trees covered in fairy lights, lighting the streets. The indoor area was dim lit, moody, and atmospheric too. I could see it being a good date spot as well as a girl's night out. The menus are available with a QR code on the table. Oysters are priced based on region. East coast oysters were $20 for a half dozen and West coast oysters are $25 for a half dozen. Our sever said they were priced a little higher the day we went and they're usually around $19. You can also buy oysters individually for $3.50-$4.50 a piece. We ordered a half dozen East Coast oysters and split them. They were good but I think I might like the ones at Tom's Oyster bar a little more. I got more of a fresh salt water ocean flavor from the ones at Tom's. The oysters are served chilled on a bed of ice with lemon, and 3 sauces/garnishes: atomic cocktail sauce topped horseradish, an onion oil, and a pickle oil. The onion sauce was my favorite! It really brought out the natural flavor of the oyster best. The cocktail sauce was tasty but masked/overwhelmed the natural flavor of the oyster. For food my friend got the Green Goddess Grain bowl, which is brown rice, quinoa, wilted spinach, golden beets, avocado, pepitas, feta, green goddess dressing for $10. You can add shrimp, chicken or salmon for $6. She got the shrimp and they were huge pieces of perfectly cooked and seasoned jumbo shrimp. It looked fantastic and she said it was really good so I'll definitely be ordering this next time. I wasn't that hungry so I ordered off the ala-carte snack menu and got the blackened fish taco to go with my oysters. The fish taco is topped with pickled cabbage, smashed avocado, and smoky remoulade and is $5 for one large taco. The sauce was super tasty and it was a delicious taco!! They offer items for every budget. They had some other intriguing items on the snack menu like Brussels sprouts with pork belly, and panko crusted Mac and cheese, and clam chowder for $5-$6. They have a blue crab dip served with warm flatbread, cheese board, and mussels for $12-$13. They have larger dinner items too like pan seared scallops, jambalaya, shrimp and grits, and a fish fry for $15-$19. They also have a nice drink menu with lots of delicious looking cocktails, wines by the glass and bottle, and a great craft beer selection. My friend got the Transient Poppin Pastels sour ale with flavors of Blackberry, Raspberry, Lemon, Milk Sugar and Vanilla. They had some other appealing craft beers too like SINGLECUT BEERSMITHS KIM, a sour lager w/ hibiscus and black currant, URBAN ARTIFACT EPICUREAN peanut butter and raspberry jelly sour, and WHINER BEER CO. BLEU TUBsour saison ale w/ blueberries. Sardine Room has a great Happy Hour every day from 4-6 pm with $1 buck a shuck oysters, $2 PBR beer, $3 hand cut fries, $5 house wine or cocktail of the day, $7 pulled pork sliders and more. I've also heard fantastic things about their brunch served on the weekends so I definitely need to come back for that too. I'll most likely stop in again next week after Pilates in the park. Can't wait for delicious drinks and seafood again! Yum!
