Our favorite fish and chips place. However, I did feel I had to write a negative review. (I've written a five star for this place too! The food deserves it.) Today we did not have a good experience. We got there right before noon. We ordered 2 combos, and we understood that there was a large phoned-in order ahead of... more

I'm sorry about your wait. I spoke to the person that was behind the counter that day (my mother) as well as another guest. I was told that it was a wait, a half hour as everybody was told. You state that the food deserves a higher rating, and you have given a five star before, but when I search...

The "restaurant" is not very clean. It's small and very casual. I ordered chowder and a combo basket. They were out of cod at 2:00pm. The server (owner's mom), asked if I would like the chowder for here and I said sure. So, 25 minutes later I got a bowl of chowder that was heated up in a microwave to... more

Hello, I'm the owner of J's Fish and Chips. I spoke with the person who was there that day, and they remember who you were (hopefully), they say you came in at the back of the line at lunch (not always at noon as some think) and yes there was a wait, for that I am sorry, as for the...

We're locals and found J's to be way over priced for what you can get at a place like Dory's Cove. Not sure why other people have found this so appealing but perhaps it is because they are visitors who don't know what else there is to offer in the area. Seating is minimal and not very warm. more

Were on our yearly vacation trip to the oregon coast to Lincoln City, and alot of the places to eat were too expensive or full, so we saw this little fish place and decided too try it. They were getting ready to close so we ordered some fish (can't remember what type) and we also had to try the chowder... more

This past Saturday my wife and I had the 3 piece cod meal for lunch. It was the best fish & chips we've ever had in Lincoln City. In fact we liked it so much that before leaving for home, we came back for dinner! Next time we visit Lincoln City, this will be a must stop. If you're a... more

Found this place based on other reviews. It was crowded - a good sign. Because of the wait, we ordered the bowl of clam chowder and it was GREAT. Creamy, rich, and lots of clam flavor and pieces of clam. Don't know about the other items but I recommend the chowder - way better than the "famous Mo's chowder". more

I decided to go to J's Fish and Chips based off of the reviews here at tripadvisor. The reviews here were spot on--the fish was excellent and their homemade salt 'n' pepper chips were crisp like kettle chips. They had a daily special with ling cod (vs. standard Alaskan cod) so that's what we ordered. One order ran $10 that... more

After reading glowing reviews here, I was looking forward to trying the fish and chips at J's. We travel to the coast often and always are on the lookout for good fish and chowder. Seeing that J's was rated number one in Lincoln City and having tried many of the others on the list I was all set for a... more

I am very sorry that you had a bad experience at my restaurant. I would like the chance to correct this with you, please contact me and we will work out a compensation meal package if you like. As for the new person, I had brought a new person to help out for the week, takes some time to train....

After a week of hit and miss experiences on the Oregon coast, J's was a wonderful standout. This is the essence of no frills, high quality seafood. The chowder was fresh and flavorful and the cod and halibut were excellent. If you want quick, tasty and simple seafood, stop in at J's! more

We ate @ J's Fish & Chips our first day in Lincoln City and it was so delicious the members of our family went back every day to try all of their different selections. All were equally good. Very small place with not much seating so best to go during off hours or order to go. Prices were reasonable. more
