Nahrain Fish Chicken Grill - El Cajon

Best fish maskuf in town, maybe pricey but really deliciousFood: 5/5

The food was great I think this has to be by far the best Arabic restaurant I’ve tried I think people should go here more often the food really good.

After craving red snapper I decided to look up restaurants on Yelp and I came across Nahrain Fish and Chicken. After reading reviews and looking at pictures I decided to go. I get to the restaurant and upon entry I could smell a foul odor. There was a man behind the counter on the phone so while he continued his conversation I went over to the cooler to look at the fish. I knew immediately that I might regret ordering. The fish was just thrown in a cooler with no ice and blood running throughout. I always thought fish should be kept on ice to keep it fresh. After the man hangs up he asks how could he help me? I told him that I came to try the red snapper. He responded that they didn't have any and might get it the next day. I thanked him and left. I don't think that I will be returning back.

The fish is really good. We spoke to the fish vendor very gentleman. The place is nice and clean. I highly recommend trying it.

The place is nice and clean. The fish is really good. We spoke to the fish vendor very gentleman. He took the time to explain to us how he takes care of his business and keep the fish fresh overall very good experience. Definitely coming back again anytime I’m hitting San Diego.
