I just want to write about a fantastic fish and chips restaurant which is across the street from my clinic. We treat ourselves to their delicious halibut fish, chips and coleslaw. The fish is very crispy and the portion size is generous. The fries are delicious and the coleslaw is perfect. They also have many other options on their menu.

We have tried many other places, but John's Fish and Chips is by far the best we have ever had. It is exceptional and a must try.

It is a family owned restaurant which is very clean, and customer service is number one to them. The staff are very friendly and kind. They make sure that you are satisfied in every way.

Best fish and chips we've had in the GTA. Their fish is moist and fresh, the batter is light, fluffy and golden crisp. We could tell from eating it that they change their oil frequently: it doesn't have a greasy taste, its light and clean. We were served by the owners wife, who is very nice. She tells us the owner filets the halibut himself, and that's why it's so moist. Would highly recommend this place any time you're in the neighborhood.

Amazing fish and chips probably the best I’ve had in the city. Perfect batter that’s not too heavy and fresh fish. I had the haddock and loved it. Great service by the most friendliest owners.

Best Fish and chips ever! If you come here definitely order their calamari and the haddock is a must try. Great experience, very sweet family that runs the restaurant. We will definitely be back for more!

Highly recommend the batteted Halibut! It’s crisp and not too greasy, it was great. Always nice to support a local spot!

I finally made it to this beautiful family-owned restaurant, and my only regret is that I didn't visit sooner! The place was clean, the service was outstanding, the owners treat you like family, and the food was delicious.
I ordered the fish and chips – the fish was fresh and so crispy; the fries cooked to perfection and not too salty, and the coleslaw hit the spot perfectly.
Don't leave without ordering a slice of their famous baklava – you'll thank me later.
I can't wait to come back:)

This place has been on my list for a very long time because of the great reviews. Unfortunately, my experience wasn’t that great. I was very disappointed. On the positive side, the staff was friendly but compared to other fish and chip places in the area I was not impressed. The halibut was not very fresh, the portion was much smaller than other locations and it was just over $10 more than any of the locations I’ve been to in Etobicoke and Mississauga. $30.79 for one halibut and chips, small coleslaw and a coke. I did not include a tip for takeout.

Nice family owned restaurant. Service was very nice after the tense dinner rush hour period. Fish & chips were good, a bit dry. Calamari is excellent. Fried Artichoke was nice without over-flavoring. Churro dessert was Delicious! About a dozen tables. Limited parking.

Etobicoke Gem! My husband and I finally visited this small family owned business and we were very pleased!

The atmosphere was very warm, inviting, and friendly and the food was fresh and absolutely delicious. We ordered the calamari and halibut dinners - the fish was fried to perfection, not greasy at all and perfectly battered - same with the calamari! The rice was amazing!

You can tell this family business takes pride in what they do and it definitely shows! We will absolutely be back and telling all of our family and friends about John’s!

Every time I come to this restaurant I feel like family. They are so friendly and accommodating. The food is awesome and always hot. I recommend it. Great atmosphere.

My whole family esp my late uncle and aunt plus myself have going there for over 30 years now. The best fish you can't get anywhere else. ;)

First time trying this lovely spot - we were welcomed with a friendly smile right away. We ordered the cod & the halibut - this was the first fish and chips place I’ve been to that had delicious fries along with the fish. It came out relatively quick and was absolutely delicious. Would definitely be back for the welcoming hosts and the tasty food!

Recently moved to the area and popped in here to try it out. Friendly and helpful staff, large portions, great food quality, adorably quaint and enjoyable space. Great place to take someone for quiet date. TARTAR SAUCE IS SOOOO GOOD

My husband and I went for winterlicious here - found this little gem! We felt like seafood and we got the best! It's been a very long time we have experienced this quality customer service. Maria and her Mom really made our time here enjoyable. They have the best calamari! My husband and I will for sure be back and will recommend this Greek family owned restaurant to others! Deserves a 5 star for sure.

Been to a lot of fish n chips places throughout the city and this is clearly the best in town. The halibut was amazing and the homemade coleslaw was to die for! I hope John never retires!

Excellent halibut - large portion, not greasy. This is our choice for local fish and chip shop.

I popped in last week with my friends visiting from Cape Breton
They know a thing or two about fish and chips and gave 2 solid thumbs up
This restaurant is one of Etobicokes old mainstays
Not big and grandiose but a charming little hole in the wall and I say that affectionately
We had a lovely engaging conversation with the owner on a variety of topics
Totally authentic experience through and through
Highly recommend

The fish was amazing! Loved meeting the owners. The fish is Atlantic caught and quite fresh. The batter is light and tasty. The onion rings were awesome. It's worth the trip. The portions were huge. Look at the pic below for the size of one piece of fish. Coleslaw is made in house and really good. I will be back soon with my entire family!

I absolutely love this place, from the decor to the food (especially the food). The halibut is recommended here and it's been amazing every time I've gotten it. The service is very homely, and hospitable. Overall a 5/5, love this place.

John's Fish and Chips is amazing. It's an old place that really know what they are doing. A place that stats in business this long is staying afloat for a reason. We got halibut and chipsand we all loved it. Best fishand chips place I've been to in a very long time. Fish is tasty and firm. Loved my experience.

From the decor to the food to the atmosphere, we loved it and we met the owners and they were lovely and extremely friendly. The food was really delicious. Will definitely come back for more.
15 September 2022 22:51
I went in right at closing and didn’t realize. They still took my order and the food is phenomenal. We come here often and always get chicken fingers and battered haddock with Greek salad. Friendly service and high quality every time. Very fresh. Tip them well!

Fabulous family run business w/a 42 year legacy! So friendly. Wow! It was my first time here for Summerlicious, would definitely recommend & I would come back. Fish was super light & crispy, greek salad was super tasty, coconut shrimp was so sweet & savory. The portions are huge! Too much food. Great value. Love love love:)

First time eating at John’s Fish ‘N’ Chips I have never had Fish and Chips that even come close to what they serve here!
The food smelt so amazing I couldn’t wait to get back to work to eat it
The taste was unimaginably delicious
I got the halibut battered with fries and coleslaw
Everything was so fresh and cooked to
Perfection!

Had a coworkers first time trying fish n chips and even they were blown away by how great this tasted!

Not only was the food outstanding but the staff here are extremely friendly, polite, and respectful, They showed great customer service and make some amazing food to back them up!

I will for-sure be getting this food more often
If I could leave 100 stars I would!

Excellent fish and seafood options prepared well. I did find the prices slightly higher than I would expect though for the experience.

I’ve been coming to John’s for decades. Brought three friends tonight. Two of us had the haddock with fries and the Greek salad. Two orders of halibut and fries. One with Greek salad, one without. First time having dessert. Lemon merengue pie, baclava and a raspberry cheesecake. Large portions. Delicious food. Delightful owners husband cooking and wife waiting tables. Happy to support local! Can’t wait till I visit again.

The best fish and chips in the city - bar none! Amazing family-friendly environment, great food and overall experience. Highly recommend!
18 August 2022 13:31
We visited as part of Summerlicious, and immediately decided we needed to go back to try out the rest of the menu! This quintessential neighborhood spot is a true family-run spot. Super friendly owners take care of you with freshly prepared seafood (and drinks!)
You can taste the quality and love that goes into each meal, and they still take the time to get to know you. No wonder they've been around for as long as they have!

Ordered yesterday from John's, the battered halibut with coleslaw and rice. This was the worst packaged food and fish I've seen to date. Those foam containers with the soggiest piece of fish I've seen, with a side of rice. All wrapped with paper, the funny thing is I ordered the rice because i didn't want that much oil from the fries, but guess what was dripping with oil? The whole paper wrap was drenched in oil. For 20$ i expect a little better quality and less oil! Not rating the food because of course I didn't eat it. Thanks for trying though
16 July 2022 23:54
The best fish and chips I've ever had. I love the atmosphere of the restaurant and the food is always prepared fresh. Their tartar sauce is amazing. The staff is always very friendly as well. You can't go wrong by choosing to come here.

Just discovered this great little Greek Restaurant. We had an amazing fish and chips.
I love that there is an option of grilled, breaded or battered. Maria and her husband (who is the chef) do a great job.
10 June 2022 21:42
What a delicious late lunch. Thank you, Bill, for the very tasty food, and thank you, Maria, for being a wonderful host. We had a lovely time and will visit again, for sure! Have a good weekend, everyone! (Go for halibut and chips!)
