Just enough salt and nary a spot of grease. The two fillets come perched on sturdy rye bread with wonderful tartar sauce artfully balanced between the tang of pickle and bite of onion. The only chink in the armor is the fresh leaf lettuce crisp, but one leaf is dark and ragged on our visit. Service is polite and friendly, earning 2 bonus points for several smiles. But it needed a sprinkle of salt and a towel dab to soak a bit of grease.
Service is exceptional.
We again award 2 bonus points for the smiles. I like the cod sandwich better than the fillet of sole sandwich, which the Frisch s chain reintroduced last year on a limited basis. Although the sole has a firmer texture, the fish can taste strong. The mild and flaky cod, meanwhile, is everyman s sandwich dependable and well-priced. The tartar sauce reigns supreme, but the shredded iceberg is, well, only shredded iceberg.
