Chula Seafood Phoenix AZ – Fintastic Seafood – Worth a Fork

Chula Seafood offers sustainably sourced high quality seafood and prepared seafoods. They come to us from San Diego where they hand harpoon swordfish (their specialty) and bring the best fish of the pacific coast to us. Currently in Arizona they have two locations (Scottsdale, Phoenix). A North Scottsdale location is expected to open early this year. (2022)

It’s casual here. During the day you wait in line and order and pay at the counter.

You will see all kinds of fish and more in the counter.

Up above is a menu board. They offer daily specials, starters like oysters, and sashimi platters. They also offer bowls and salads. They have various plates like swordfish burritos, fish sandwiches, fish and chips, fish tacos, fish plate entrees, and more!

Then (during the day) you seat yourself and when you meal is ready they will call your name.

Today my husband started out with the fried oysters.

My husband said that these fried oysters with chili oil were really very good and they were served on delicious toasted and seasoned Nobel Bread.

Today I tried the Friday Daily Lunch Special.

Today it was a Hawaiian Lunch Plate.

The fish is crispy seared albacore katsu.

It came with blistered shishitos, jalapeño onion jam, soy marinated egg, kewpie slaw, bulldog sauce and sushi rice. Everything taste amazing. Today the jalapeño onion jam is really delicious but almost too spicy for me to eat….(Almost). I like that the slaw is almost dry…..I tell The Forking Truth so as amazing as everything really does taste…I have to admit ……It is strange to me that every single thing on my plate was served cold….I think if I could tweak this slightly it’s the rice and peppers that I would like better warm.

My husband got the crispy fish sandwich with potato mac salad.

He started with the parts that were spilling out of the sandwich and he said that it was very good. Then he went to pick it up…………(I tell The Forking Truth)…………
