Tin Fish Gaslamp

We have walked past this place several times and decided to give it a try today -- I'm so glad we did! We arrived around 11:30 am and it was already pretty packed. We ordered the calamari, fish and chips, and clam chowder. Everything was delicious, but the clam chowder was extraordinary! I especially like the light breading on the fish. It wasnt greasy or over-powering. We will definitely be back.

I had a fish taco with fries and some clam chowder..along with a big old beer! It was quite the meal! I left stuffed. Fish taco was pretty good and very big portion for just one taco. Fries were.. fries, nothing to special there. Clam chowder was pretty good, very creamy. I'm going back to this place to see if I loved or just liked the clam chowder...that beer did me in!

You order first then take a seat wherever you'd like. Annika took our order. Tonight, I tried the 2 Mahi Mahi Tacos with French fries and Cole slaw with water. My boyfriend had the 5 piece fish and chips (fries) also with water. Reasonably priced for the amount of food that you get. We sat outside and was about 10 minutes before our food was out! Very quick. Cole slaw was vinegar based and sweet...I liked it. Cole slaw is a tough one... you either like it or you don't... There's generally not much of an in-between! The general vibe is awesome, music on speakers from Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix. Would love to return before vacation is over!

If you're looking for a quick but tasty meal, look no further than Tin Fish. Order at the counter and then find a spot on the spacious patio (there isn't much indoor seating, so it's not the best for a cold or rainy day). While the tacos may initially seem a bit pricey, the cost is well worth the amount of fish they contain. There had to be a whole salmon filet in my taco. Go ahead and order some fries, they are nice and crispy!

Excellent fresh seafood. They had a variety of grilled seafood options which was great! The ceviche was excellent. The service is quick, the place has a fun vibe with good live music and the staff is very friendly and helpful.

I ordered the salmon sandwich, paper thin salmon with a huge bun. The cole slaw was soggy and I watched someone from another table bring theirs back and complain (with a rude response from the cook). Sorry, I don't recommend the salmon sandwich at this place. My wife ordered a fish taco, very disappointed. Great location, poor food.

Delicious sea food restaurant with tacos, burritos, fish sandwiches. The restaurant is counter service and can be a bit noisy. So if you are looking for a quiet intimate setting maybe consider elsewhere. If you want fash fresh delicious seafood with a descent outdoor patio come here.

Best grilled shrimp tacos I’ve ever had! The fish and chips were good too. The coleslaw isn’t the mayo kind, but a lighter version. Plenty of drinks and entrees to choose from. Nice area in downtown SD with lots of outdoor seating and occasional live music.
