This Is Why McDonald's Filet-O-Fish Is So Delicious
Ойын-сауық
Today, there are so many menu items to choose from on the McDonald’s menu. Gone are the days of just walking into McDonald’s with hamburgers and fries on your mind, but there are still classic menu items that will never go out of style.
The Filet-O-Fish is one of them, and it has been a part of McDonald’s menu since 1965. It’s been over 50 years since the Filet-O-Fish was introduced to McDonald’s customers, so what is the secret to its staying power?
To find out why people keep coming back for more, take a look at the reason why the Filet-O-Fish is so delicious.

Delicious. I've been eating these for almost a half century, but they're getting so small, they could be called Fillet O' Sliders.

The steamed bun is so perfect each time, coupled with the tartar sauce and texture of the pattie. I have asked them to use that steamed bun on a quarter pounder with cheese and it was pretty darn good. Changed the entire texture of that burger.
It's underrated and is so good especially when fresh

Popeye's recently came up with a fish sandwich that reminds me of the one McDonald's make decades ago. Huge and better tasting.

I do like McDonald's Filet-O-Fish. However, White Castle 🏰 has a boneless Alaskan cod with a light panko seasoning. The fish is flaky and crunchy, sitting on a nice slider bun. Great fish 🐟 slider! Delicious! 😋😋😋😋😋👌
DEFINETLY love this sandwich. The fresher the more amazing.
Omgggg! Thank you for the Desus clip Lololol
My all time favorite
The last old meat I ate at Crapdonalds was at 8 years old. I'm 65 now. But that filet...the best!
As a BugerFi employee who likes fishing 🎣 and is taking a fisheries class, I could imagine how delicious fried fish fillet, particularly haddock, cod or even locally sourced species like Mahi-Mahi, Snapper, or even Snook in the case of South Florida in a our unique BFi setup with our specialty Fi sauce and buns. Or any of the same fried fillet species but with our all natural french fries 🍟 cut directly from REAL POTATOES GROWN IN IDAHO. BurgerFi is known for creating spanking new unique recipes. Our Rodeo Burger, Chicken wings, Yes Chef, and now Prime Rib Burger are greatest selling specialties. It definitely doesn't hurt for BurgerFi to try at all. It will literally keep our sales afloat (no pun intended.)
It’s good to know it real fish! That’s the only sandwich I get from McDonald’s😌

Yeah I think it’s an amazing sandwich. I worked at McDo for 5 years. The Filet-O-Fish had it’s own fryer and bun steamer. Fun fact: we could put the styrofoam clamshell containers in the steamer and make “shrinky dinks”! We made keychains out of them. I wish I still had those.
Was my grandfather's favorite Friday night meal
When I worked there in the late '70s and went on break I would toast (carmelize) the buns put a full slice of cheese and ketchup 👍🏻

I think it's the tartar sauce that makes the big difference with McDonald's fish sandwiches.
2 for $4 in 2010 2 for $5 in 2015 Mix n Match 2 for $6 2021. Not sure if NYC or McD's, but the only consistent part of these sandwiches is rising prices and that they are half the fish of BK or Wendy's. FiletOFish is tasty though

I would love to go back and eat at mcdobalds in the 80s and 90s again. Totally different experience. Where has the flavor gone?! Its bizarre.
I ate this sandwich today.It did taste good fish was fresh.
The Tartar Sauce is made with DILL pickle relish - that's what does it for me!
my mother buys me this and it kinda grew on me
My parents won't let me try burgers because this si the second time going out of our house from lockdown so I will just stick with the classic burger selections
I think it's McDonald's best sandwich
Its my personal favorite at McDs. The saturated fat and calorie content dips if you scrape the bulk of the tartar sauce off, leaving enough for flavor as it can be quite overwhelming.

Me: extra tartar sauce is the way to go
I’ve been eating McDonald’s my whole life and never tried the fillet fish until today fucking loved it
Getting the fish is a gamble. Too many times, including today I got a fish that was the color of last falls leaves that had wintered in the back yard. Dark brown, dried out, and funky taste. Today I hit one that had been really good for fresh food-at the very start of lunch with lots of cars in the lot so should have been a slam dunk. Nope, fish brown, fries stale lukewarm and funky taste too. With as much as stuff costs anymore make some effort to time how far out you make food. Took a bite of fries and fish- then tossed in trash. At least the drink was ok.
It's my fav McD burger. More than half of my purchase there is Filet-O-Fish
Pescetarians would love this I mean Idk if they like it but if you don't I emcourage you try it a few times just to taste the fresh one or go to a different junk food shop
I love the fish sandwich I always get it with a Powerade lol 😂
awesome
I always have.... 1 Big Mac 1 Fillet O Fish Large Fries Large Sprite 6 pieces nuggets Apple Pie Chocolate Sundae ........ in 1 sitting. Thats some good eating!
The onion in the tartar sauce is what makes it so good.
The only sandwich that taste like what they have sold you.

Replace tartar sauce with Mac sauce, boom. Even better.
