I took my 6 year old granddaughter who wanted to go back to her favourite fish and chips restaurant. We had been several times before. funnily enough now that she can read, she saw chicken schnitzel on the menu and wanted that! Staff were so friendly and helpful My garlic prawns were delicious

Great outdoor atmosphere, nice casual setting. Service very responsive from the proprietor, other staff member a little non-communicative..... great seafood, though servings were a little smaller this time compared to our last visit a month ago. Missed the fish pie, that apparently they only do in winter! Overall a great seafood place, will go back!

We booked ahead and were greeted by their friendly staff. The menus offer a wide range and variety of food and drinks (Alcoholic as well). The prizes seemed pretty good too. The food was very well prepared and vary tastefull presented. The flavours were subtle and balanced. All in all a great dining experience.

We have lunched here on many occasions and it never fails to please. This is a casual style restaurant with covered outdoor seating and some tables inside. Fish is prepared simply, service is friendly and efficient. Our only disappointment on this visit was that our request for a particular inside table had been overlooked. We'll be back.

First time there and will definitely return. Our meals were delicious and the service was excellent. We sat outside on a cold night and with the heaters going we did not feel the cold.

The food and value for money is very good. The fish and other seafood is always fresh. Serving staff are a little inexperienced and at times over effusive. There was a long delay in removing finished plates and utensils from our table. All in all this restaurant is recommended and I'm told the take away is also very good.

Fantastic service. This is the 5th time I have visited and I was slightly disappointed to find the food was not as good as previous occasions. The atmosphere is probably the best thing about the restaurant and the close proximity to the Lane Cove Plaza.

Highly recommended. We sat outside with our dog and enjoyed delicious fresh fish (John Dory!!) and a juicy flavoursome hamburger. Prices are very reasonable with many $16 main course options, and it's BYO. So... great value for a great meal in a great location!!

Enjoyed the food and the outdoor setting. Service was friendly but long wait to take order and had to ask twice for wine glasses; they appeared to need more staff. Although early in evening one of the specials was already unavailable. Once order in the food came promptly. Overall, an pleasant meal.

Fourth Fish is a local gem. Good quality meals, a wide variety of interesting menu choices, cheerful helpful service and a delightful environment - especially on a balmy evening in Lane Cove Plaza. Reasonable prices and its BYO status make this a really excellent addition to the Lane Cove dining scene.

Food was kept waiting on the pass because wait staff were too busy stuffing around so it came out cold. Management really needs to review their wait staff and perhaps lose the kid who wears thongs and forgets to wear a belt so dinners have to look at his undies and bum crack. Surely there are laws about this in the food industry ie OH&S, health and hygiene. Makes you wonder what else is lacking behind the scenes. Won't be back.

Food was good, but service very haphazard. Main courses not served at same time and vegetables only arrived after we had really finished our main course. Request for side serve of bread arrived about 20 minutes after we had finished our meal.
