Great local fish. Not a fancy place at all. Just good food. The clam chowder is the best, dont forget to order some sourdough to go with it!

Dry fish, rude service 7/28/2008

Strike one. This was our first(and only) visit. We ordered swordfish and halibut. Being new we didn't realize different marinades were offered- in the menu. Counter help did not ask if we wanted a marinade. Strike two. While we were orderering a customer was asking about her to go order made 25 minutes ago. 2 counter help tweens stated in unison, " Oh, we called your name." Strike three. Fish was overcooked-normally at this point it would be sent back. How does a fish market/restaurant not know how to cook fish? Stike four. We had ordered bread with the clam chowder. Did not get it. When server came BACK I requested bread again. She forgets and gets a soda for herself. Go the the counter and request bread from another tween. She tells kitchen so I go back and wait. Still no bread. I go back and get a refund, but get this- I WASN'T REFUNDED THE TAX. So in closing I would like to say it is most unfortunate that sites like this cannot keep employees/business owners from posting bogus reviews. Pros: bogus reviews Cons: service, portions, quality of cooking, etc. more

Great fish market starting to slide. 10/14/2007

Pelly's has been a North County secret for years. An old fashioned seafood market with private access to great fresh fish, it's low brow funky feel belied it's incredible fare. Surf movies are shown in the small dining room although most sit outside if the weather is ok. Unfortunately, the place is starting to slip. You basically have a choice between a fish sandwich and a seafood plate but the portions of each have become smaller and smaller. Recently they got rid of their staple lemonade drink. Still have an excellent red or white or mixed chowder. Best cole slaw around. Great hot sauce as well. In the old days the cook would make up anything in the case for you with his signature lemon dill sauce if you asked but most of the old faces have been replaced and the food, it just aint the same. Service has become slower as well. more
