Grabbed some Hooked to go with some friends. A few thoughts:The menu says "2 onion rings: $15." It is not lying. I had been drinking literally since 2 in the afternoon at a birthday barbecue and I failed to process this fact. FIFTEEN DOLLARS for TWO onion rings?!? Seriously brazen price gouging here. But the onion rings are good.The chips are good, and a full scoop is a lot. They're a little on the mushy side, but nicely salted and I had no complaints.The fish itself is good in my opinion. I got

The chips are good, and a full scoop is a lot. They're a little on the mushy side, but nicely salted and I had no complaints.
The fish itself is good in my opinion. I got the blue cod. It's pretty plain-tasting, but that's actually how I prefer my fried fish. Otherwise it just tastes off. The batter was nicely apportioned-- I'd had some trouble with insane amounts of batter at some places recently (The Pawn and Awakening, to be specific).
You don't get a huge portion of fish and looking around at what my friends got, the portion sizes are a little inconsistent. I am personally in favor of small portions (though not as small as 2 onion rings for $15, smh).
As opposed to the taco-liers at Seasalt, this place gets my approval. Good: B+
Other Info. :
My friend ordered the curry sauce. A small dipping portion is $10. The curry sauce is fantastic.
The guy running the counter was totally trying to up-sell people on stuff, like larger portions of fries. What is with the money-grubbing, New Zealand?
