It's un-Australian, and did you see that pack of Allen's lollies on the table with a SEVEN DOLLAR price tag! The rent at that marina must be very high or the people are just greedy.
$18 is overpriced even in today’s world of high inflation, you should have marched back into the shop to demand a full refund, obviously the owners have no clue on how to make a good fish & chips unfortunately.
Even the sea gulls flew away . That place was called Fisherman's Wharf back in the 90s by memory . Should have gone up the road to Peter's fisherman markets by the trawlers .. 🍻
It’s always been called Mariners Cove . Fishos is the next lot of building up past marina mirage . Mainers cove and fishos both being demolished and redeveloped now
Quite the culinary voyage we took there! Not every treasure chest is filled with gold, right? Just like these chips needed more seasoning, sometimes life needs a pinch of salt too! 🧂 Keep exploring these culinary waters, my friend. Your reviews are our beacon in the fog. Looking forward to the next adventure! 🌊🔭
After watching your fish and chips reviews, we decided to try one you haven't visited. We went to "The Local Fisho Loganholme." There, you get to choose your fresh filet from the display case, and for only $2.50, they'll grill, batter, or crumb it for you. I must say, it's the best I've had. As a coastal Floridian used to astounding seafood, I've been pretty disappointed in most F&C joints, but this was a game-changer for me. Give them a try and I look forward to your great review.
The worst fish and chips I've had in a long time was from a shop with a sign saying in effect, that unless complaints about the food were made immediately after opening the packet, they would be ignored! Strangely enough the chips from that shop were quite good but the fish was a disaster.😂
With a business name like that, all the fresh seafood we have available in Australia, you'd think it'd be decent... like, there's practically trawlers right next door...
@@hephestion6063 because there too stupid to buy fresh caught fish from the locals and pay em some cash. might not be legal but hey, its australia i know how this shit really gets done.
Thanks Grego ,very accurate review, I posted on Tripadvisor April 2018 Bad Fish nothing has changed, I believe the Marina is being redeveloped and most of the businesses got there marching orders last week. Just around the corner is Peters Fish Market , a thousand times better.
The best fish and chips I ever had was in my former hometown. Which was unbelievable because it’s a small mining town 300 kilometres in-land from the nearest ocean lol. Cooked by a young Chinese fella in his little cafe. That was back in the nineties. Freddy if you ever read this …COME BACK!!
Some of the chip shops in Britain get away with doing terrible chips . You could mail your boots back together with the spiky chips they give you when they are about to close up for the night
Because they pre cook and sit in a hot casket. I don't understand how Brits can say they have the best fish and chips when everything is pre cooked, stale and dry
@@chris.breadz that's not entirely correct..I worked at a chippy in the summer for my first job when I was 16... The process is called 'blanching' it's where you cook the chips two times. Once at a lower temp to cook the potato through and then a second time at a hotter temp to give them colour and crunch.
Visited this area last school hols with the fam whilst staying at Versace and it was a feckin ghost town uh GregO and looks like nothing has changed… I’ll be in situ again later in the week and will def bypass this joint en root to La Luna… The bride wants to go to Fisho’s to reminisce ffs.. I wonder what the entry level coddage offering would’ve bean like…? Prob doesn’t matter with fries like that in any event uh… cheers Gibbo
Next time you’re in Brisbane - visit Fish on Richlands near Forest lake . You rated 2FISH in forest lake - this fish and chip shop is levels above 2 fish
Don't worry, you can still find a really bad feed of Fish and Chips over here in NZ if you look hard enough. My God I've had some shockers over the years.
What I have learned over many years of eating fresh fish regularly is that a lot of people don't know what good quality fish should taste like, and think that this sort of stuff is good....
Hi Greg, I’ve been following you for years now and I’ve been there and had to be the worst fish and chips on the Gold Coast I’ve ever had. It was greasy as hell the chips wouldn’t even cooked Little still cold inside I never ever ever go there and by the way, I did meet you in Eagleby keep up the great work. You have help me in choosing my food. My Ian star rating would be zero
That's pretty disappointed our family went there 3 yrs ago and thought it was pretty good but we I got the family pack that's sad to hear I do love a good fish and chip ☺️
Fish and chips is soon becoming very unaffordable. We went friday and got 2 bags of chips, 1 sausage, 2 breadcakes, and a peas. Came to £15. Thats crazy!
The chips were cut too thick , had they been thinner they would be properly cooked and bit of colour on the outside . A bit more chicken salt and there's the chips fixed ( assuming the right variety of spud was used in the first place ) . The fish looked like it was sliced too thin , hence easy to overcook , opposite problem of the chips .
When you walked into the place it looked like a dive nothing around more candy than anything else looked disgusting is all i can say keep up the good work and hello from NZ
“Hi Greg, I hope you’re doing well. I was wondering if you have any children? I’m asking because I’m interested in getting to know you better and learning more about your life. If you don’t feel comfortable answering that question, that’s okay too. I just wanted to let you know that I’m here to listen and support you in any way that I can.” - Regards, Tommy and Adrian
it just looked odd and the taste matched it. who makes batter like that? Never seen it b4 in my life and i'm old. Oh well.. the saying is tru. U learn something new everyday
I know right, it's like one of those movies, so bad that you just gotta watch it. Then it becomes a cult classic 🤔 I wonder if that's the angle they're going for 🤷♂️ Nah, they just stuffed up and missed the mark 😂😂
$18 to feed the fat seagulls you should of taken it back and say you were unsatisfied with its preparation why is it at Restaurant we can send meals back but at a cafe we dont do the same? If it was $9 fine but $18 your not a charity. Anyway marina mirage isnt the other fish n chip mob up the road on the spit?
I live on the coast port macquarie nsw and I've noticed that you get shit fish and chips, when you go inland in country towns you get better fish and chips 😂 !
$18 for that?! You got robbed.
I've never ever seen a place charge 20 cents for chicken salt
have you seen the price of chicken lately?
@@suave-rideryeah. It's pretty cheap.
I run a fish and chip shop in Tassy (Chefs Catch) we dont charge for sauce or lemon.
It's un-Australian, and did you see that pack of Allen's lollies on the table with a SEVEN DOLLAR price tag! The rent at that marina must be very high or the people are just greedy.
Tourist trap prices.
Good on ya Grego for taking the dive so we don't have to
Reminds me of Cullen Bay Marina. Very $ and disappointing many years ago let alone now!
Cooked prices, uncooked chips.
Doing god's work out there Greg, cheers!
$18 is overpriced even in today’s world of high inflation, you should have marched back into the shop to demand a full refund, obviously the owners have no clue on how to make a good fish & chips unfortunately.
👍
I was trying to reason with what he said I didn’t want to believe it was 18$
Rip off for rubbish.
didnt know fast food shops had a money back guarantee. need to move to Qld

its frozen fish from vietnam
@@hephestion6063 because there too stupid to buy fresh caught fish from the locals and pay em some cash. might not be legal but hey, its australia i know how this shit really gets done.
They are just fryers and not makers, I grew up when Greeks dominated. Fish from the market, potatoes whole. Chips and potato cakes are cut on-site.
I miss those days, the Greek fish and chip shops were the BEST. Now in my area it is Vietnamese and Lebanese and the fish and chips are awful.
me and my dad used to watch you when i was 8 years old, i’m 17 now
Go back in there and peg ya chips at em while singing your theme song
Hhaha

Just go to the trawlers next door and get a kilo or 2 of fresh caught prawns, best feed on the coast
worst places are ones that use old oil, I've had to throw it out a few times was so bad couldnt even finish it.

Oh dear so sorry ..hopefully its a better one next time big love from Cyprus x
You know the food is bad when the fork doesn't want to grab ahold of it
Those seagulls at the end were squawking: "Mine, mine, mine." like the ones in Finding Nemo teehee.🤣
WOW, $18!
That's an expensive $17 piece of fish 🤯
At least the lemon was ALRIGHT? 🤔😂👍❤

how do you mess up cooking the chips
New camera mate? Looks good. 👍
We need the seagull scale. Do they sit at the table or do they head north?
4:40 Must be a McDs subsidiary.
Ngl feels like Greg's videos are getting better and better.
Last time i came up to the Goldie (2017) i was disappointed that we didn't go down there for fish and chips........not so disappointed now Grego. 😁
Thanks brother keep it up
Greg
Thanks for the heads up freaking love fish and chips
Next time you’re in Brisbane - visit Fish on Richlands near Forest lake . You rated 2FISH in forest lake - this fish and chip shop is levels above 2 fish
Seagulls will love it 😅5 out of 5 from them
Great review mate😆
Sotos, Semaphore, Adelaide - hands down the best - or was in Feb. 2023
Ok I’ll give it a go thanks 🙏 nice to see a fellow adelaidean
in my career as chef ive met many other chefs who suck at cooking fish proper. Chef is an easy title to adopt imo
You able to check out French's Forest Seafood in Petrie, would love to see ya thoughts on it Greg
OUCH!
WHAT sort of fish were those in the marina? They looked like bream?
I'm sorry about that, mate. Something about those chips did look suspicious to me, same with the fish. But still, thanks for the vid.
It takes a special talent to fuck up fish n chips 🙄
New Zealand has yummy fish and chips. Especially this place called BOBBYS in Papmoa , Bay of Plenty in the north island ❤
*Papamoa
Don't worry, you can still find a really bad feed of Fish and Chips over here in NZ if you look hard enough.
My God I've had some shockers over the years.
I had crap fish and chips at the Rose and Crown in Guildford WA. It was like eating battered cardboard! Haven't been back since!
Well thanks Greggo, saved me a pain in the guts 😂
We go to Peter’s next door to Versace. Barramundi and chips, best ever!
Poor Grego! Not exactly what U want on a Sunday afternoon ay! You, Grego, were great as usual 🤩
You really think he recorded it today? 😆

Try charis seafoods at Labrador … they feed the pelicans around 11 am
Try at runaway bay at the Broadwater fish and chips
Were those ufo's or drones at the 2:23 mark near your left ear behind you
birds...wait no, they were ROBOT BIRDS, sent to destroy us!!!
Damm1 greggo star must of been a shocker
Those fish look like they're used to having people dump their fish 'n chips over.
Did you not see the guy at the start of the video, washing the jet-ski's with a hose?
That's pretty disappointed our family went there 3 yrs ago and thought it was pretty good but we I got the family pack that's sad to hear I do love a good fish and chip ☺️
Like to see you do a review of the lowest rated fish and chip shops in Brisbane, and on the Gold and Sunshine Coasts.
You can count the individual grains of salt. There's three!
Hi Grego 🖐
There is a fish and chip shop further down the road and its much better
Hi Greg,
Have you ever done a video of PETER'S FISH MARKET, Main Beach?
yes I have!
@@GregsKitchen Nice! I'll try and find it :) we've gone a couple of times and it was really good and not stupidly expensive for where it is.
Fish and chips is soon becoming very unaffordable. We went friday and got 2 bags of chips, 1 sausage, 2 breadcakes, and a peas. Came to £15. Thats crazy!
What are bread cakes?
@@MsS-J little cakes of bread baked in an oven.
@shiTthebed86 might have to google it
I kept waiting for a seagull to snatch the fish out of your hand - but they probably know better 😉
good take greg
Yes..been there.. its pretty bad ..go up to peters fish markets up the rd
18 bucks😳. That was on the specials board too😂
wow gold coast seafood market that sells you frozen fish. what a time to be alive.
I was hoping the birds and fish left after the first taste, haha!
Hey greggers would you do a review on gami chicken,it’s pretty good stuff .
The chips were cut too thick , had they been thinner they would be properly cooked and bit of colour on the outside . A bit more chicken salt and there's the chips fixed ( assuming the right variety of spud was used in the first place ) . The fish looked like it was sliced too thin , hence easy to overcook , opposite problem of the chips .
Well they're just frozen chips.
@@NoOne11279 Doesn't matter whether bought in or made on premises , they were too thick and alternatives exist .
Chicken salt 20 cents .... what 😂😂😂😂😂
What the hell are those fish at the end?! It was like a scene from Pirahna 3D.....
Hey Greg, afternoon fish and chips...... and a bank loan for one star
just looking at the intro walk-in footage this place looks like a tourist trap
When you walked into the place it looked like a dive nothing around more candy than anything else looked disgusting is all i can say keep up the good work and hello from NZ
Grego, those chips look exactly like the ones at my school’s old tuckshop you could get for $5 (still overpriced!)
wow the nerve to serve that for 18 bucks
We have a rule of thumb in Perth. If you can see the ocean, the food is going to suck and you're going to pay double for the privilege.
One of those times you wish you went to Maccas for a Filet o fish?
Maybe you should show them how it’s done
Even the lemon couldn’t save it.
You tell ‘em grego
Can you please try both paradise Point fish n chips please

Can't believe it. Some ratings are true. Toss it to the birds they don't have to worry about dinner 😅
Lol. Makes me want to try it for myself just to experience how bad it is!
