Eric Ericsson’s Fish Co

"This is an exceptional restaurant located on the pier. They serve the best clam chowder in a delicious bread bowl. Pair your meal with a side of calamari and you will send your taste buds to heaven. A beautiful restaurant with a beautiful view. The food is delicious - you won’t regret stopping here!!"

"Oceanside Oasis: Fish, Views, and Brews for the Win! If you're searching for a quintessential California experience, look no further than this gem perched right on the pier with waves lapping at its feet. From the moment you step inside, the salty air and sun-drenched vibe wash over you, prepping you for a tastebud triumph. Let's dive into the real stars of the show: the seafood. The fish tacos are an explosion of flavor - perfectly grilled, flaky fish nestled in warm tortillas with a symphony of fresh toppings like pico de gallo, cilantro, and a vibrant crema that had me ordering extras. The fish sandwich is another masterpiece - a generous portion of beer-battered goodness on a toasted bun, drizzled with a tangy tartar sauce that had me reminiscing about childhood fish fries (in the best way possible!). And of course, the fish and chips? Crispy, golden fries paired with melt-in-your-mouth fish that practically swam onto my plate. Each bite was a testament to the quality ingredients and skilled cooking. But the culinary magic doesn't stop there. Head upstairs to the tap room, where the ocean view takes center stage and the craft beer selection is guaranteed to impress. I savored a crisp IPA while watching surfers tackle the impressive point break just beyond the pier, the spray catching the sunlight like diamonds. It was the perfect way to cap off a truly epic meal. The staff deserves a standing ovation too. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about their food and the local scene, they made us feel like welcome guests in their beachside haven. So, if you're craving fresh seafood, stunning views, and a laid-back vibe with a touch of craft beer magic, this place is your oyster (or should I say, fish taco?). I give it a resounding 5 stars and will definitely be back for another round (or ten!) soon. Just make sure to bring your appetite and your sense of adventure - you're in for a treat!"

"The food was absolutely amazing!! The seasoning and flavor profiles were unique and so tasty! I went 2 days in a row. First with my son and the next day I came back with my friend and her daughter. We all loved the food! There is also indoor and outdoor seating, all with beautiful views of the ocean! Unique about this place - You order your food as soon as you enter and then sit down with a buzzer that alerts you when it's ready. Alcoholic drinks are ordered at the bar, which is a separate counter."

"I think this is the only restaurant on the Ventura Pier. We came on a Friday early afternoon. It was not busy at all. Ordered Clam Chowder on a Bread Bowl and Shrimp and Chips. The Shrimp and Chips were good. A fair amount of food for the price and the taste of everything with good. The Clam Chowder was good too. Not excellent, but above average. The only observation I have is that this felt like a self-serve restaurant. You have to order at the counter and had to clean your own table to sit down. In one hour or so that we sat there only one person showed up to ask if we were OK. The location of the restaurant is prime though, with great ocean views almost everywhere you sit. A definite plus is that they DO validate parking from the nearby garage."

"We had the Tuna on Fire, Poke bowl & Fish Tacos. The food was Excellent. The view is amazing. The cocktails are top notch. All said this is our go to place in Ventura for the Whole Package. Once you're here I guarantee you'll come back❤️"
