I was in this area alot when Huffman’s Bbq was open. Looks like redevelopment is closing in. Big modern buildings are replacing the single family houses and little family owned businesses.
In Imperial Fish Market you can either buy a pound or more of fish and pay $3 for them to fry it or you can order a basket with fries at the register. I wanted to try the fries so I ordered a 3 piece basket with fries. You can get regular fries or seasoned fries for 50 cents more. I picked the seasoned fries. Fries were crispy with a strong peppery flavor. Next time I think I’ll go with no fries as the fish is what I’m really interested in.
There is a very good selection of fish that are filleted and ready to fry. I picked the perch as I have not seen it available as fish and chips anywhere else in town. You can get this fish mild or spicy. I picked mild. Fish comes coated in a mild corn meal batter which tasted unseasoned. Mild flavor was a bit too mild as the perch was very mild flavored. My mom made a delicious perch dish where the perch was marinated in a soy ginger sauce and steamed. I don’t like spicy food but I would like a third option like small amount of spice above mild.
I like how there are tons of choices for what fish you want fried but Sally’s Fish House is my favorite spot for fish and chips as they batter sea bass with the exact level of spice I love.

That’s great they such a large selection of fish.
Yes. I ‘ll have to give there spicy batter a try.
Sounds like a fresh concept but not executed well. Hopefully the fish has a good texture and helps make up for the lackluster seasoning.
The fish was fresh and had good texture. The batter is good enough to keep them in business. It’s just not good enough where foodies will rav about it and form lines out the door. I’m thinking I should buy some fish and fry it up myself as they have a very good variety of fresh fish.
