Ethelton Takeaway

We are new to the area. Just got a seafood salad, tabouli and coleslaw. Absolutely dissatisfied. If I had of wanted a celery salad I would of ordered one. It was not a seafood salad or was a crab stick salad. The others were just as bad. Someone needs to teach these people how to make salads. Total waste of money

*Edited review as now under new management (ordered a pizza)

The staff are friendly and the service is all good, but that pizza.where do I start? I never thought I would say this, but it turns out that it is in fact possible to put too much topping on a pizza. I ordered the chicken/hawaiian and added pepperoni, then opted out of the BBQ sauce, just tomato. Did the tomato sauce go on last? When I lifted the lid, it was the darkest pizza I'd ever seen. Like the tomato sauce was near the top and burnt. It made the pepperoni nice and crispy though. Also, the chicken tasted very strongly of marinade, like something that belongs in a yiros, not on a pizza and there was far too much of it. It felt like I was just eating handfuls of chicken, pineapple and tomato sauce. The crust was good, but the rest of the base couldn't take that amount of toppings.

This might all sound great to some people, but I can't say that I enjoyed it when I end up throwing most of it away. So, maybe give them a try, but start small first.

I used to go to this shop when the previous owners were there and never had an issue. Food was great. So tonight I decided to order pizza for my family. I ordered 5 pizza's. Very disappointed. Firstly it took and hour and 15mins to get our order. All the pizza's were burnt on top. I ordered a chicken pizza which was so burnt you couldn't even see the chicken on it plus it was very spicy that I couldn't eat it. Also the vegetarian had a spicy taste to it as well. Not happy as the kids were hanging out for their food. I feel it ruined our dinner.
Unfortunately I will not be a return customer.

Literally just got a garlic bread tonight to go with my pea soup. But it was cooked to perfection. Pizza guy always gets my garlic bread right. What a legend. The owners are just the best people with great customer service. The treat their regulars well so they come back.

Under new ownership very nice fish&chip packs seafood packs otherwise parking area not to big but at least there are carparks available. I highly recommend this place for a feed at affordable prices Happy Kiwi

Best fish and chip shop in semaphore. Lovely staff. Food has always been cooked perfectly everytime we've visited.

Haven't been here for a while from the old owners who owned it for years sold the business, although we tried it on a week night about 8pm and only ordered a piece of battered flake and pop dog. Very disappointed in the service as there was only 2 people in the shop including myself and it took close to 20mins to cook the above items. No apology nothing for the length of waiting. The fish was not fresh, over priced, it tasted old as the lady who cooked the fish did it for so long the batter was burnt as well. Will not return to the shop again. So sad! Also prices have tripled with most items. If your going to put prices up make sure your food and service is great!

Thanks for your review re owner. But definitely YES, it was your shop I went too and didn't get it wrong with another. Unfortunately we will not return.

Haven't eaten hear for a couple of years because I was not happy with the food or service, but noticed today it was under new management, so I gave it a go.
The owners and staff were very friendly, the environment was very clean, the salads were all Freshly made and the fish and chips I ordered was very tasty, cooked in fresh oil with a crispy batter, and the tartare sauce was home-made. Good menu selection and generous servings. Will definitely be back.
I highly recommend eating here.

Pizza was delicious, highly recommend
️WARNING️: The family size pizzas are incorrectly labelled on the menu as 16" when they are in fact 14" (even the box says 15", you couldn't fit a 16" in there if you tried). If you want the best value for money, get the correctly labelled 18" party size instead.

10 out of 10 the best burger with the lot I've ever eaten! And the hot chips were amazing! That and the great service will definitely go there again!

The food is now actually the best in my fifteen years of being here.
Current owners are the fourth in this long interval.
Broad range, fresh salads every day, value family pack options, clean premises, excellent friendly service and top quality!
Locals report that this is the best fish and chips shop in or near the Semaphore-Port Adelaide area

“THE BEST FISH & CHIPS IN THE WEST” Excellent Food - Amazing Value - Cooked to Perfection every time - The Absolute Best of All Seafood’ Burgers’ Pizza’s’ Chicken & “ Of Course” The Most Utterly Scrumptious Chips in the Port Adelaide/ Semaphore District!
To top it all off they also make the Best HOMEMADE tartare Sauce that’s Out of this World!

We’re regular customers and have always been impressed with the quality of the food. Tonight we ordered a couple of steak sandwiches and a small chips. They were all inedible with the sandwich’s really soggy and meat tough as a boot. Chips were awful too. Sodden with oil and undercooked.
Will be very reluctant to return.

Not sure what's happened to your pizzas. We got 2 pizzas and they tasted horrible, the little bit I tried left a horrible taste in my mouth. Rest went in the bin. Definitely changed something, as few years back they were the best in the area. Won't be returning.

Literally putrid. Wouldn't not order unless his wife is the one cooking.
No customers and still waited over 30 minutes for one half burnt pizza and soggy chips. Slowest man I have ever witnessed working in a takeaway shop. Embarrassing.

Gone down hill a bit since last owners. They seem to still be getting it together. Fish was pretty oily, lack of salt on the chips. Just ok, hope they get sorted

Just called in to get Tabbouleh, amazing! And so authentic! All their salads looked fabulous!

After changing management several times, thought I would give the local shop another go. Don't bother! Dismal service, long waits, wrong orders, painful to watch. What a shame the family that ran it for years were excellent.

Great seafood and sides. Top service, friendly staff. Enjoy! Went and tried some food from new owners. Well what a treat. Chips were done to perfection and the fish was superb. Salads and condiments were fresh and tasty. Give them a try

This place is my absolute favourite local take away shop!
The staff are amazing! They are always so nice and friendly and happy to help in any way they can!
They are amazing at catering for my gluten free diet, and their pizzas are some of the best gluten free pizzas I have found!
Highly recommend!
