This place was recommended by the motel we stayed at. Yuck! We got there right when they opened and the woman who took our order and served us was rude. Food was greasy. We should of high-tailed it out of there when we first walked in and noticed how disgusting the floor was!

Whenever I go to Lincoln City I have to stop in at J's for their great fish and chowder. The inside may be small but the atmosphere is friendly and the food worth the wait as everything is made to order pretty much fresh. The fish is fantastic and their chowder divine - the chowder has some large bits of... More

J's was recommended to us by the desk clerk at the Wecoma Inn. We'd never eaten there and the look of the little building might make a stranger drive on by. We went in and the place was packed. The 3 piece cod basket was wonderful and fresh. There is a choice of fries, curly fries or home made potato... More

We got take out from J's because I like fish and chips and the reviews were good. Take out because of the numerous reviews that pointed to a long wait, so I called ahead, something I would recommend to anyone who plans on going to J's. The wait was 45 minutes...completely unacceptable. J's has a very small menu and cooking... More

Tried it out based on other reviews, very pleased! Tried the chowder, cod, halibut, fries, coleslaw, salt/pepper chips, coconut shrimp. All was delish. Fries were only thing that seemed nothing special. Fish and shrimp tasted great, seemed fresh, crisp and light breading, not overloaded. Portion size was good, not excellent, but sufficient. Great little no nonsense atmosphere, just simple good... More

We had fish and chips at J's last week and I have to say that it was one of the best dinners we had during a week long getaway. The fish was cooked perfectly and the coating they use is delicious! My only regret is that it took us this long to eat at J's. We can't wait for nest... More

I have eaten at J's several times over the past couple of years and they are always the best for fish and chips!

Only thing fresh and local is the cod. I think everything else comes frozen. But with that being said, the clam chowder was amazing. I got the coconut shrimp which was ok. Coleslaw was great. The main thing that I didn't like was the service. I ordered a drink with my meal and the lady at the counter said that... More

I guess if you do your level best to eat sustainable fish the other 364 days of the year, you can support local fishermen and eat here when you're on vacation. I'm not sure what all the PC fuss is about, not being too familiar with the local politics of fishing. What I do know is that the fish and... More

Being a Brit, I take my fish n chips seriously, and this place serves the tastiest and freshest I've tasted outside of Britain. The cod I had was fresh and the batter/bread crumb was not too thick and really tasty. The two pieces of cod and chips were great value at just $6. The establishment itself reflects the prices -...
