Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Who would have thought! High quality fresh seafood market with food service in a Trader Joe's strip center. Shrimp and chips was some of the best served with sweet potato and regular fries. Fish & chips equally good! Serve beer and wine on their patio.

Pier 46 is easy to find in the Trader Joe’s parking lot. Their fresh halibut tacos are over the top with generous portions. You can get grilled, battered, or fried. They come with really crunchy chips and salsa and are topped with terrific coleslaw. A must for lunch when in Templeton!!!

Recommended here by the folks over at Turley Vineyard. The fish and chips was so tasty-not greasy at all. The fries are a combo of regular fries and sweet potato fries. One serving was enough for two of us to split and be very fulfilled

About 3 tables indoor, lots of tables outdoors. Beer (805) was fresh and good and cold. Salmon dinner plate was above average - cooked well, plenty of food. Problems was the cod tacos. Cod was grossly undercooked. Did not eat it - looked raw. Raw cod is a bad thing. Interestingly I noticed they have a Sashimi night. Since the Salmon was excellent and the Cod inedible I settled on an average experience.

This was recommended by friends. We got one order of fish tacos (grilled) and one order of fish and chips. The fish tacos were definitely the way to go. We had to eat some of the cabbage before we could pick up the taco. Did not care for the fish and chips -threw the fries out and the batter on the fish was somewhat soggy. From placing the order to getting our food was 25 minutes.

The fish tacos are the best and one of my favorites on the entire Central Coast. You can order the fish battered or grilled but I always want mine Baja style which is battered and fried, nice a crispy. The cabbage amount is perfect and the house sauce is delicious. The seafood quesadilla is awesome as well as the fish and chips.

An excellent variety of fresh fish, with both indoor and outdoor seating plus wine and beer (including draft options). Sushi on Fridays. Reasonably priced too. Worth fighting for a parking space.

This is the second time that I have ordered from this place. Being OK the first time, I returned. We ordered fish and chips and fish tacos. The portions are enormous. We ordered and paid for two iced teas. We were told that they were making it., but never received. We ate lunch and I asked for a refund for my teas. The counter employee then told me that they were out of Iced Tea. They attempted to refund my card, but did not do so. The employee told me that he would wait for his boss to credit me. Did not happen. They could have easily taken the cash from the drawer and given me the refund. I do not recommend this place any longer.

Always stop here when I'm in the area. Great food, reasonable prices and efficient service. It is a casual kind of grab and go place, about 5 tables outside and a few inside. Had two bowls of their amazing clam chowder - so delicious! Shared the tuna sandwich - very large and so delicious - $33.00 for everything. Took it to go and they did a very nice job of making sure it was packed to go to maintain the quality when we got back to our hotel

We were in town for a concert, and decided to try this place out for lunch. My husband got the fish and chips, and he really love them. I got shrimp tacos, and I thought they were decent. You get huge portions, and the prices were good. I just wasn’t in love with the food we got, but it wasn’t bad. I think I would try it again and get something different.

This was our second time at this great little gem! We discovered it on a trip last October and had to go back. It is just a small seafood shop with a few tables. Everything we have tried is delicious! This time we had the ahi tuna tacos, so good! Also their combinations fries are yummy,

A fish market and a fish restaurant. They have superb fish and chips. You get plenty of food, so consider splitting it if you are just a little hungry. Lots of battered fish with a mix of sweet potato and potato fries. Delicious. You order at the counter and there are several tables. Beer and wine served.

The fried shrimp was disgusting. Way over breaded and fried. Will not go back. Fish tacos not that great either. Can’t believe their overall rating.Crazy.
