  A few years back I worked in Rhyl and although I usually took a packed lunch with me in the morning I occasionally succumbed to temptation and treated myself to sausage and chips for lunch. I always went to Les & Rita's because it was a safe bet, the food was always fresh and well prepared so I knew I wouldn't be left disappointed.
  
  I no longer work in Rhyl but from time to time we pop into Rhyl for a change of scene and often head to Les & Rita's for lunch in the sit-down area. If you believe that a visit to a traditional seaside resort isn't complete without sitting down to a traditional fish and chip meal then the 'special' which comprises fish, chips, mushy peas, bread & butter plus a pot of tea for £4.75 is a no-brainer. Good quality fresh food, friendly and quick service and all at a reasonable price. You can't go wrong here.
  
  One other useful addition to the menu is the kids 'meal in a box' which includes lunch, a drink, a lollipop and a toy. If you've got kids who can't see beyond a McDonald's happy meal this is an option that should keep them happy. My daughter recently polished off a helping of chicken nuggets and chips and commented that it was just like going to McDonalds except the chips were much nicer and you got more of them which sums it up quite nicely.

  So many 5* reviews made us go to Les & Rita's Fish Bar.
  We had haddock, plaice and prawns.
  The haddock and plaice were so small you had trouble to find them within all that batter. The batter is absolutely tasteless and full of oil.
  The praws are not any better but at least the batter had some taste.
  
  This is among the worst Fish & Chips I have ever eaten and any London pub does much better than this restaurant.

  I love quality fish and chips so settled on visiting Les & Rita's on a recent trip to Rhyl, due to all the 5* reviews here. What a disappointment. Food was tasteless. The fish, which was not cooked to order, was long and thin, and still had the odd bit of skin left upon it. Hardly any taste to the fillet or the batter whatsoever. Same with the chips, which I suspect were 'No Frills' supermarket chips, as they didn't look or taste like proper chippy chips. Mushy peas were ok, but without equally good fish and chips, it was rather pointless having it. The only pro's were that the bill was incredibly cheap, the food was piping hot and that the staff were friendly and attentive, just a shame that they have to wear those horrible dated uniforms.

  Great chippy. Been in the area since we switched to AD! Staff always friendly. Food always good.

  If it is Fish and Chips you want the place to visit. For great quality with that real taste you won't beat better then here. If I am in the owtn centre and want atake away then I will not go anywhere else. There is also a small place to sit in and eat your food. I have always had great service as well which is always a bonus
