The only one worth eating is Culver's Atlantic cod.
Culver's walleye sandwich is good too.
My brother, who made a fortune in the cod fishing business, warned me to NEVER eat a piece of fish that had a regular shape; you know, like a square, triangle etc.

I work on the waterfront in Seattle where there are several processing plants, that make fish sticks and the fish for most of the fast food places. They use mostly Alaskan Pollock. It's not a bad fish, but not as good as cod. It is cheaper and also more sustainable than Cod. I love a good fish sandwich but we have a fast food seafood place here called Ivars where they sell sandwiches with Salmon, Cod, or Halibut. Many of the local real restaurants will also have a good fish sandwich. I don't bother with the hamburger joint fish sandwiches. Just not the same as a true filet of good fish battered and fried. At home I use the frozen "Ultimate Fish Sticks" from Costco, made locally by Trident Seafoods. It's Pollock but hand cut from fillets, not chopped and formed. You can tell by the slight variations in size and shape of the sticks, no 2 match exactly.
Had one from Culver's tonight and they are my personal favorite. I don't do McDonalds. When I was living in Ohio my favorite fish sandwich was at Frisch's Big Boy...yum....!!!
I like the Chick-fil-A fish sandwich, Wendy's, and McD's - but please don't put cheese on my fish sandwich.

LOL, no. Fish and cheese just don't GO together. My friend used to always order something called a tuna melt--it was an open sandwich with melted cheese over hot tuna on toast. Gag city seeing that on a plate.

An old friend of my ex-husband's lived out in Wyoming for a time. He said there was a nearby river with waterfall and a pool at the bottom of the waterfall, and there were always carp in that pool and that there were people there catching the carp and filleting it and freezing it right there on the spot. He talked to them one day, and it turned out the fish was going to McDonald's. So, you might be eating giant goldfish, more or less.

It is absolutely divine - you really should give it a try you may be pleasantly surprised. I typically start mine in the fry pan. A little butter, toast the bread on both sides and add the cheese (let it melt a bit), then add the tuna and the tomato last. Pop it under the broiler for a bit to warm the tomato and Yum!

They were pulling his leg, McDonalds serves Alaskan Pollock.
That is just what I was going to say. I hate to admit it cause: 1-I am not a fast food fan and 2-Arby's is at the bottom of my list, but a couple of Sunday's ago, we were running errands all day and needed to wast a little time between 2 calls we had to make. Being a little hungry we pulled into Arby's. The had fish sandwiches 2 for $5 or $6. We decided to give it a try. Either I was really hungry or they were really good.
I am also not a fast food fan and I have rarely gone to Arby's. I tried the Arby's fish sandwich for a similar reason, as I was busy and was hungry. I was surprised that the sandwich looked like the picture--which is rarely the case. The filet was big and over the bun. It was lightly breaded and very good. I thought it was a good value at 2 for $4. I found an excuse to try it again and I was very pleased but it was now 2 for $5; still not a bad value.

Tuna melt....one of my husbands favorites and even though I don't usually care for warm/hot tuna, I even like it.
