Culver’s Fans Say This Meal Is ‘Better Than Most Sit-Down Restaurants’
When it comes to fast food, Culver’s is one of the best in the business. The Wisconsin-based chain is known for its gooey cheese curds, creamy frozen custard, and impressive lineup of ButterBurgers and chicken sandwiches.
Recently, we noticed customers raving about another one of the chain’s entrées, and if you love a homestyle fish dinner, you don’t want to miss this.
Culver’s North Atlantic Cod Dinner
Culver’s North Atlantic Cod Dinner features everything you could want in a fried fish meal. Each order comes with your choice of two classic sides, such as fries, macaroni and cheese, or coleslaw, plus a warm dinner roll. Guests can choose a two- or three-piece battered cod entrée that is fried to perfection. For dipping, you can enjoy tartar sauce made with olives, capers, and sweet relish or choose any of the chain’s standard offerings. To top it all off, each plate comes with lemon wedges and butter.

On Reddit, a user posted a photo of their meal and said that it’s “better than most sit-down restaurants.” Later in the post, the person added, “At $18.99, it’s not cheap, but it’s impressive for a fast food restaurant.” Culver’s fans and seafood lovers alike didn’t waste any time responding.
“I’m sure it’s good, but I can’t justify that price,” said one person. “That is not worth $15 for that. Go to Costco and buy better fish, fries, and sauce, and it costs less to make at home,” another said.
But those who have tried Culver’s crispy cod feel it’s worth the price. “I’ve always loved their burgers, but I recently had the two-piece cod dinner, and my god, the breading was phenomenal, and the fish was delicious,” said one fan. “It’s my favorite meal there (two-piece), and I switch to onion rings and mashed potatoes. The fish is so good!” another exclaimed. One person called Culver’s a “top fast food restaurant.”
And the praise didn’t stop there. “Culver’s three-piece fish and chips quietly proves that fast food can sometimes outshine traditional sit-down restaurants,” said another Redditor. “The fish is perfectly golden, flaky, and tender inside, while the fries strike that ideal balance of crispiness and soft potato goodness,” someone else added.
So, the next time you’re craving fish, be sure to give Culver’s a try. And if sandwiches are more your style, you’ll be happy to know that the Culver’s North Atlantic Cod Sandwich took the top spot in our chefs’ ranking of the best fast food fish sandwiches, beating out Popeyes, Long John Silver’s, and even McDonald’s.
