Wow what can’t I say I love small places because they usually have the best food and yes the fish was cooked to perfection fries was excellent and those fried pickles oh man great spot. Oh and the size of the fish was big I got a 2 piece and would have been full with a 1 piece but yes I stuffed myself because it was so goooood. Definitely coming back here.

Great food and friendly staff all for a fair price. I’ve tried the others and this is BY FAR the best casual fish n chips shop in town. We ordered a combo #3 plus one piece of fish to split between two. Everything was fantastic! I’m also pleased that I can afford to visit again, and plan on doing so! I highly recommend!

6/18/23 We just found this HIDDEN GEM of a place on Hopper Ave in Santa Rosa!! It is the BEST seafood I have ever had. Seriously, they cook the best fried oysters in the country!!! All of their seafood is fresh, tasty, cooked to perfection, never tastes greasy or oily, even the fries are perfectly hot, crispy, and golden brown, never ever soggy. I feel badly that they’re located off the beaten path, and so many people have probably never heard of them. The owner is super nice and always very friendly and accommodating, with very fast service too! They are in a small location with just a few tables, so takeout is best. I have NEVER had such huge, cooked-to-perfection, non-greasy/oily fried oysters anywhere else in California or Maine, and I used to work right across the street from an oyster restaurant in Portland, ME’s waterfront! Mel’s Fish & Chips is truly a hidden gem and their prices are very reasonable also. You just can’t beat the quality of their seafood!! In my humble opinion.

Found this little hole in the wall, and so glad we did! Though there was barely enough room to turn around inside,and prices seemed kind of high, portions were generous, and food was good! We had fish, chicken strips, chips and onion rings. The service was so-so. Despite the rudeness we encountered from one of the girls working there, we plan to return again. They served us the best tempura battered onion rings that we have found anywhere in a very long time!

Mel’s is hidden in this sweet little shopping center. The fish tacos are a must try. The service is amazing. The new owner is so sweet.

This place is always busy. They serve with a smile and for us they are the closest thing to the “fish and chips” we were used to eating when we lived in England! We like to either order by phone and pick up, or order on the spot. They are efficient and the staff are all great!

The best fish and chips in Santa Rosa! The fish is always so fresh. Because they don’t cook it until you order it is hot and just the right amount of crispy! Lastly, the portions are nice. Not scrimpy little pieces. Highly recommend you stop by.
