Taking a cue from the traditions of Mediterranean fishermen where freshly caught seafood are enjoyed straight out of the pan aboard their boats, the "seafood in a pan" concept reflects the uncompromising commitment to freshness and quality by Fish & Co. with all its signature seafood dishes. And since my very first post more than a decade ago (see my post In Good Company at Fish & Co. from 2013) all the way to my recent posts (The Bistro Group Food Crawl at Robinsons Magnolia Part 3: Hook, Line and Sinker and Good Company at Fish & Co. from last year and Hooked on the Fresh Catch of New Dishes at Fish & Co. also from 2023), the secret to the enduring success and longevity of the brand is clearly no secret at all. It's all about consistency with the freshest and finest ingredients and masterful execution. And that always beats any short-term food trend all the time.
At Fish & Co., the fresh catch of the day has been the brand's continuing story from the very start with its extensive seafood offerings...
...like the Crispy Crablets (P 280/P 395), deep-fried crispy crablets paired with cocktail vinegar dip for starters. Each crunchy bite drapes the palate with the succulent flavors of the crablets capped by its crisp textural finish complemented by the sharpness of the vinegar dip. Rich and delectably crisp, one bite is soon followed by another for a perfect start to your seafood feast at Fish & Co.
Other seafood starters include the Crispy Fried Mozzarella Balls (P 295/P 495), Mussels with Garlic Lemon Butter Sauce (P 445), Seafood Quesadilla (P 545), Crunchy Nori Cheese Nachos (P 295) and New England Clam Chowder (P 220).
Wash it all down with the refreshing beverage creations at Fish & Co. to complete your dining experience...
...like the Jungle Freeze (P 205) with its unique blend of pineapple and rambutan, the Fresh Lemonade (P 165) with its clean, sweet and tart notes...
...and the Citrus Herb Surprise (P 195) with its pronounced bright and zesty profile from the lemonade, basil and calamansi guaranteed to cleanse and soothe the palate.
For the mains, the aptly named Best Fish & Chips in Town (P 365/P 575) with its signature 10-inch long fillet draped in a delicately light and crisp batter never fails to satisfy with its contrasting weave of textures. The succulent flaky fish and the crisp batter combine for bite after bite of fresh and clean notes with the perfect crunch. And it's exactly like that every time.
Fish & Co. perfected the batter and fillet combo for a hearty take on the iconic English classic. It's a deceptively simple dish that can be difficult and even tedious to recreate in the kitchen requiring the right mix of premium ingredients and flawless execution. But Fish & Co. nails it all the time. You can also opt for the Halibut Upgrade (P 575/P 995) at Fish & Co. with its firmer texture and richer, deeper flavors capped by the same light and delicately crisp batter. The Halibut Upgrade is Fish & Co.'s faithful homage to a classic, perfectly executed with fresh flavors and delectable textures with each tasty bite.
Fish & Co. also offers inventive variations of the classic inspired by global flavors. Take the Swiss Fish & Chips (P 395/P 595) with creamy and silky smooth Mozzarella, dried oregano, Kosher salt, black peppermill and Fish & Co. spices for a cheesy twist. The cheese brings an added layer of richness to the flaky fish and crisp batter with the dried oregano, Kosher salt, black pepper and spices giving the dish a flavorful depth.
Other inspired takes include the New York Fish & Chips (P 395/P 495) with Mozzarella, Grana Padano and sun-dried tomatoes; the Philadelphia Fish & Chips (P 395/P 595) stuffed with cream cheese, the Sambal Fish & Chips (P 475/P 595) and Nori Fish & Chips (P 475/P 595) served with your choice of creamy Tartar Sauce or Lemon Butter Sauce. Better yet, ask for some Malt Vinegar.
But there's more to Fish & Co. than just seafood proving there's meat to the brand's name. Take the Maple BBQ Pork Chop (P 575) with seafood rice and fresh snow peas for a complete savory meal. The slab of tender pork pairs well with the seafood rice and vegetables with the sweet, tangy and smoky maple bbq sauce completing the flavors. Other non-seafood options include the Grilled Pork Belly, Crispy Fried Chicken with Seafood Rice and Smothered Pork Chop in Brown Gravy. That's right, you'll find all your cravings at Fish & Co. and not just seafood.
Then, there's the Prawn Fettuccine (P 525/P 785) with succulent prawns and nutty shiitake mushrooms lightly sautéed in rich and creamy Alfredo Sauce. Evenly coated with the Alfredo sauce, each bite of the soft yet firm fettuccine noods becomes a prelude to the following burst of briny sweetness from the prawns and silky smooth finish of the Alfredo sauce. Who can say no to pasta, right? Other pasta options include the Seafood Marinara, Seafood Aglio Olio and Shrimp Aglio Olio.
For the epic finale, Fish & Co. brings out the grand Hefty Seafood Platter (P 1,895) with grilled calamari, shrimp, fried rice, mussels, sweet corn and fish in one pan that's great for sharing.
From the fresh medley of the day's freshest catch of fish, shrimps, squid and mussels to the sweet corn and fried rice, the Hefty Seafood Platter is the perfect pick for any festive gathering with friends and family at Fish & Co. It's also the picture-perfect representation of the abundant ocean harvest offered at daily at Fish & Co.
From tasty starters like the Crispy Crablets to The Best Fish & Chips in Town led by the Halibut Upgrade and impressive Hefty Seafood Platter to savory non-seafood options like the Maple BBQ Pork Chop along with pasta like the Prawn Fettuccine, Fish & Co. has the right catch to match your craving. And not just seafood.
For more than a decade, Fish & Co. led the wave in seafood specialty restaurants with its novel "seafood in a pan" concept showcasing the freshest catch. And it's a tradition that continues the moment you enter one of its branches in the metro, transporting you to the fishing docks in anticipation of the day's fresh haul of seafood.
The freshest ingredients combined with consistently masterful execution are the keys behind the long-running success and enduring staying power of Fish & Co. Like they always say in Fish & Co., "one bite and you're hooked." Give in to your seafood cravings, your fresh catch is waiting for you at your special table in Fish & Co. for another memorable feast from the sea...
