Tips for a Better Visit

Showing 2 of 6

Try half-and-half. Ask for two marinades on one fish so you can compare flavours; reviewers found the option useful for tasting more combinations.

Ask for chilli. If you want heat, request extra chilli; one reviewer specifically recommended it with the grilled prawns.

The Bottom Line

Fish Hut Restaurant is a small seafood spot in Oud Metha built around choosing your fish and deciding how it should be cooked. The useful bit is the flexibility: reviewers describe fresh sea bass, hamour and other fish prepared grilled, fried or with different marinades, including a half-and-half option on the same fish. Grilled prawns, calamari and seafood cream soup also receive specific praise.

The food is generally described as fresh, flavourful and generously portioned, with staff often helping diners choose a fish or sauce. Spicy seafood is a strong theme, from masala fish with parotha to chilli prawns, although one diner found the fried prawns spiceless. The setting is clean and straightforward, with around 36 chairs and some outdoor bench seating, but it is not a spacious or fancy room; displaying fish at the counter can also create an indoor fish smell.

Pricing feedback is mixed. Many older reviews call it reasonable, but another customer paid about 120 for a plain grilled dish without salad or dip and felt it was poor value. Fish is sold by weight, so check the size and total before cooking.

Roadside paid parking exists but can be crowded, and a recent complaint reported ongoing problems with the listed phone number and delayed replies.
