I was craving some seafood and decided to give them a try. I decided to get the fried shrimp tacos fried fish tacos as well as a fried fish sandwich. The tacos were really delicious including the ingredients on top however the fish sandwich was kind of on the plain side so it was just ok. Overall a 4 star restaurant in my opinion.

This place is exceptional. The food is fantastic. The portions are generous. I had the fish and shrimp with sweet potato fries. My sister and I had dinner here. We met the owner, who was friendly. His staff is great.
The restroom is pristine clean and smells like pine cones.
If you're in Pasadena and are hungry please stop here. You won't regret it!!!
Don't forget to order the Clam Chowder Hmm Hmm good.

This place is awesome. I've been coming here for a little over a year now and it has yet to fail me. They are very consistent with taste and quality, which is a huge plus for me. The worst thing for me is when you have a restaurant that is great sometimes, good on other visits and maybe even a few lackluster visits as well.
They have a great selection available and all reasonably priced. I have tried quite a few things on the menu now but my go to is the grilled Cajun salmon burrito and the grilled shrimp salmon burrito. The popcorn shrimp is also really tasty but I don't order it as

Ive been looking for a fresh seafood place in the area where grilled options were available. I'm so glad I found this place! I'm eating Keto which means no starch and that includes rice, potatoes, and breading. This place gives me many options to eat healthy and well. I had the grilled barramundi with Cajun butter sauce and grilled zucchini. It was scrumptious! I can't wait to try other things on the menu. Staff was nice. Good job!

Super hole in the wall restaurant!
It's located right by the starbucks and super easy to miss.
I'm honestly surprised that this place isnt super busy. The food is delicious and the server is super courteous and attentive as well.
I love how they have appetizers, entrees, and dessert with a variety of drinks to choose from as well.
shrimp taco was a must have !!! and def recommend the carrot cake. it was moist and perfectly sweet. the veggies on the salmon plate are unique as well

Ordered some food to go and it took about 30 min to be ready. Fish & chip wasn't made with the traditional breading. It was crispy but the fish was a little dry. Fish plate was decent. Clam chowder was westerly and not many clams in it but tasted pretty good. Loved the shrimp burrito; big and fulfilling. Price was pretty reasonable for seafood. But most sides were additional $1-2.

This place isn't bad for a quick and slightly "healthier" lunch choice.
I really enjoyed the fish and chips, although they don't fry it in a batter and instead bread it. Not bad but not what I expected from the traditional fish and chips style.
I also enjoyed their fish burritos although they are on the smaller side (say compared to a Wahoos burrito) but still very tasty and flavorful.

Wanted a healthy lunch, found Pier Grill on Yelp. Loved their extensive menu options.
Ordered a bowl of Clam Chowder and it was perfect, a good consistency with a nice amount of clams and potates and very tasty. Tried the Shrimp Taco, Mahi Taco, and Salmon Taco - all perfectly cooked and delicious. He got a Poke Bowl which comes with a bundle of toppings and up to 3 proteins of your choice - it was excellent (although he ordered the spicy, and it was a tad spicy for him).
Nice small venue, manager is helpful and friendly, very clean semi-fast food dining location.
We'll be back to try other

Truly good fish plates, juicy and not fishy at all.
Well seasoned and fresh.
What's not good is the training when you are trying to eat during your lunch hour.
For whatever reason our tacos were held for training purposes... Have your cooks prepare a taco or two not on a clients time.
I'll be back but a customer's time should not be used to train your staff.

I want to come here a second time, but I haven't really decided how I feel about The Pier Grill.
I was craving fish tacos while picking up a coffee next door. I stopped in, saw they had fish tacos and order one beer battered, one salmon, and one mahi mahi taco. All three on corn tortillas. There were about three people waiting for their food ahead of me. The wait was short and the food came out fairly quick.
The tacos were good, perfectly fine. Plenty of fish a nice sauce, everything you'd expect. But they weren't amazing and other places that specialize in fish tacos are definitely

I had the fried cod taco, clam chowder, and mahi-mahi salad. They were all good and fresh!
Fried cod taco had very fresh cabbage and tomatoes with a hint of Cajun sauce. The best part was the fried cod was the right shape so my taco didn't fall apart like the other places.
Clam chowder was very creamy and tons of clams, they really didn't cheap out even though this is a fast seafood place.
Mahi-mahi salad was fresh. The fish was a little on the dry side but I had salad dressing so it wasn't the end of the world. I highly recommend this place if you want some quick grab and go

I have only ordered from them two times however I absolutely see ordering from them plenty of more times in the future. Tater tots are a complete luxury to me so with that you get 11 thumbs up. Their fried catfish is to die for. The owner and the staff are incredibly friendly. I know that Corona has screwed up a lot of things for a lot of people much less small businesses.... But I am grateful that this place has survived. Their food is truly a delicacy in my world. In all actuality I ordered the fried catfish but it is so lightly fried that it is not like a gross McNugget. The fish is super tender

Super convenient restaurant for a quick and healthy lunch or dinner. They specialize in a variety of grilled fishes and the food is always fresh and delicious. During the pandemic, all of the workers appeared to be wearing masks properly which made me feel safe when picking up my food (order online to skip the wait time).
Food: My family loves the trout with lemon oregano sauce, cole slaw, and brown rice. It also comes with a piece of garlic bread on the side that is a little bit soggy upon recieving the order but amazing when crisped up a bit in an oven at 450 degrees for about 4 minutes. The

Decided to try this place out after passing it several time's and I was pleasantly surprised.

Good spot for healthy grilled seafood at affordable prices.
My favorite is the grilled barramundi.
Mahi mahi is also good.
The entrees come with cole slaw and white or brown rice.
They also have fried seafood, salads, tacos/burritos, sandwiches, and poke.
They have 3 specials which all come with a small clam chowder for $9.75.
1) mahi mahi/salmon salad 2) 2(?) tacos 3) fish sandwich.
Takes them about 15 minutes to get your order ready if you call ahead.
Highly recommended!

This was a nearby seafood restaurant that I happened to pass by a few times and decided to give it a try. The place is quite small so its hard to miss. I was the only one in line at the time most likely due to the coronavirus quarantine.
I ordered a charbroiler salmon with brown rice and fish and chips. The order took about 10 minutes to make. I ate most of the fish and chips while driving home. The fries are seasoned and crispy. The fish was very flaky with just the right crunch. Dipping both in the tartar sauce enhanced the flavors. The slaw was sweet and light, tastier than I thought it would

This place is amazing! They have really great seafood dishes, and the portions are HUGE! We had dinner, I got a mahi mahi burrito that was so warm and soft, bursting with flavor and just delicious! The others had the barramundi and I think each piece was at least 12 ounces, they each took some home. Bring the family, everyone has an option here!
