Ford's Fish Shack- Chantilly

“Had two fried lobster tails and Banana pudding. Lobster tails were bangin. Not over fried, firm but moist. Breading was good and seasoned. Some of the best lobster tails I’ve had outside of New England. The banana pudding was the icing on the cake. VERY GOOD! Didn’t cost me an arm or a leg either. Been trying to get to this place for awhile and glad I rediscovered it on google. I will be back! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾”

“The food was exceptional and incredibly fresh. The rockfish was perfectly cooked, and the tacos were absolutely out of the park—full of flavor and well balanced. You can really taste the quality in every bite. What truly made the experience even better was the service. Tony, the owner, was extremely friendly and welcoming, and the entire service team was attentive, professional, and upbeat. They made us feel genuinely appreciated as guests. Great food, great people, and a great atmosphere. Easily one of the best seafood spots in Chantilly. Highly recommend!”

“Ford’s Fish Shack – A Refined Seafood Experience in Chantilly, VA Our recent dining experience at Ford’s Fish Shack in Chantilly was memorable and satisfying. The restaurant delivers an impressive balance of quality seafood, inviting ambiance, and attention to detail that makes it a standout in the area. We began our meal with the Rocket Shrimp, Crispy Shrimp, Chili Garlic Sauce, Thin Beans, and Asian Slaw—a vibrant combination of flavors and textures. Each dish showcased fresh ingredients, thoughtful seasoning, and precise preparation. For our entrée, we enjoyed the classic Fish & Chips, featuring flaky, golden-fried cod, perfectly crisp thin fries, coleslaw, and a rich tartar sauce. To elevate the experience, we added a fried lobster tail and flash-fried shrimp, both of which were expertly cooked and indulgent additions. The restaurant’s atmosphere was welcoming, clean, and tastefully designed, creating a comfortable setting for guests. However, the open sliding windows during our visit introduced a noticeable chill that slightly impacted the otherwise pleasant environment. The service team was courteous and helpful. Overall, Ford’s Fish Shack remains an exceptional dining destination in Chantilly, VA. With its fresh seafood, inviting atmosphere, and thoughtful menu, it is a restaurant well worth visiting and revisiting.”
