Fish is extremely greasy. Batter hard and not light as advertised. Fish has no taste outside of grease. Gravy is nasty and fries are bland and unseasoned. I will never order here again Very disappointed.

The food was a bit too greasy for me, but overall I was mostly disappointed by how high their prices are. Considering you're paying $18 to get 2 small pieces of fish it seems a little ridiculous they don't even bother to throw in some coleslaw as a side without charging you extra. It didn't help the daily specials felt like they were playing a joke on you, only offering a discount of a single dollar off a price of up to $45. It was rather quite insulting that they would charge such crazy prices for their food. I couldn't finish it because of how greasy it was though, and I went to the Taco Boys further down the road to get something different. Not going back, and I wouldn't recommend it unless you have enough to money to waste more than $20 per meal.

I'm pretty ticked off with this outfit at the moment, and that's why I've given it an overall 2 star rating. I don't have much of a problem with the food, other than it's usually a little too greasy, and they don't seem to know how to make coleslaw for some reason. It's basically just chopped up white parts of cabbage, with a bit too much coleslaw dressing. Most places that I know that sell it, make it with both red and green shedded and cabbage, shredded carrots, (sometimes some finely chopped green onion), and add just enough creamy dressing, but I guess that at this restaurant, I feel that they think there's always a world shortage in red cabbage and carrots at least.Anyway, that's not the main issue I have right now. I hadn't been there for quite a while, so a couple of weeks ago, on a Friday night, I decided that I would have a fast-food meal. for a change. So, I used my phone to place an online order of a medium fish & chips, with a small coleslaw, as a PICKUP order since I only live 3 blocks from the restaurant. The total order came to around $22.00 (which I feel is always a bit too much since we live in the Atlantic Provinces)! I went and picked it up at the appropriate time. After I got home and had my meal, I was checking my emails, and there was a confirmation email of my order where something caught my eye. I noticed that i had been charged $26.00+. When looking at the price breakdown, there was a $4.00 DELIVERY FEE for Door Dash! WHY?? Since I went and picked up the order personally!The $4.00 is not a big deal, but I couldn't understand why I was charged a Door Dash fee for a pickup order. So, I called the restaurant and spoke with a young lady about it, and she told me that it was the way their online ordering system worked, and that all their orders were now were going through the Door Dash system. I'm not sure that this person really knew what she was talking about, but I continued to discuss the issue, stating that this was ridiculous, and stated that it seemed to be kind of a backdoor ripoff, because how many people would notice that they're being charged a delivery fee to another company, on pickup orders. She said that she understood that it didn't make sense, she would speak with her manager the next day, and that someone would get back to me that day. To date, I haven't heard anything from anyone whatsoever. Honestly, I've been busy and had forgotten about it until Google asked me for my review, but now that it's back in my mind, I will be getting this issue straightened out, so that NO one else gets unknowingly ripped off!Sorry for the long review, but I believe in telling others the whole story and the whole truth about my experiences.

Food was ok, flavors were VERY mixed together in a greasy box, not necessary the bad kind of greasy though if you know you know ;)Staff want a tip after $90 order, but they had sad dogs eyes so I thought about it before saying noAtmosphere really made me feel like I was in FrederictonEDIT: Hol up up they gave me a lil plastic knife in the box, not very sharp. RGB fish whipped butter delightfully chunked... to my liking ;D. This does no change the review. PS I didn't eat the coleslaw

Been hankering for fish and chips for a bit now. Didn't know what to expect from Williams Seafood. I was pleasantly surprised. Fish was nice and crispy and the fries were perfect. Thank you. We will be back.??

Williams has been a favorite for years (5 star), but unfortunately they have made some changes as of late. Food is now served in a plastic basket lined with paper. By the time you are half done, the paper is disintegrating and on all of your food. Also, the baskets cut way back on portion size (we literally got a handful of fries with our fish). A bunch of baskets and no tray means a bunch of trips to the garbage can. Compared to the competition, Williams went from ahead to behind. I have no issue with paying a couple bucks more for the old portion. Bring back the paper plates and portion sizes please. Now a one star, not likely to return.
