Halibut House Fish and Chips

A brand new Halibut House Fish and Chips restaurant opened up in Markham very recently and after a late night at the office, I decided to head on over there to take advantage of their $6.00 halibut dinner special for Sundays and Mondays.  I got there just in the nick of time as the restaurant was closing at 9:00 pm. however judging by the number of people that were still there, I am sure that they would have taken me as the place was still about a quarter full.

I got a booth seat and right away the waitress asked my friends and I if we were there for the $6.00 evening dinner special.  We said for sure as the regular price was almost doubled so for certain we were going to take advantage of their great promotion deal.


The fish arrived within ten minutes and wow did we all get a huge piece of fish.  The fish stretched right across the plate which was large to begin with and they were plenty of coleslaw and fries that filled up the gaps on the plate.  I was actually quite surprised at the size of the fish as most places often cut corners on special days to lure customers in for cheaper prices for food but then reduce the size of the content as well.

The large fish was fried perfectly with just the right amount of batter.  The fries were equally as good and their coleslaw was good but not spectacular.  The fish was fresh and not mushy and they were plenty of tartar sauce and ketchup to go all around.  It was steaming hot on the inside and the fresh tasting fish meat was as perfect as any other piece of fish I have ever had.

For $6.00 a plate, one certainly could not go wrong with it.  We were all definitely amazed at the quality and the size of the fish.  There were certainly no complaints at all from my friends or from myself.  If we were to pass by it again, we will for sure drop in and have another wonderful piece of their delicious fish. Overall,  I would give it a 4.5 out of 5.
