This recipe is clearly in error. There should be salt in the marinade. I don't know how this has five stars; I only realized there was no salt after I put the fish in the pan. It was--of course--incredibly bland, and I have no idea what kind of taste buds the people writing these reviews have. glenviewjeff 2015-04-01T14:27:44Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
I made these last night. They were delicious! Because it is cold here, I made the mahi mahi in the oven. The fish was moist and very flavorful. After reading comments, I did add some course salt to the fish before baking. I added sliced avocado and sour cream to the toppings. <br />A commentator suggested adding rice wine vinegar and sugar to the cabbage and onion. In addition, I added some pineapple to the tomato salsa, as well as a bit of cumin and sugar. This recipe was a hit. My husband asked me to make a larger batch next time!<br /> Paula K. 2015-03-01T17:10:48Z item not reviewed by moderator and published

Having lived in San Diego for two years, I have had some pretty good fish tacos. These are right up there with the best. I was not sure about the ancho chili powder, but once the mahi mahi cooked in it, it tasted good. Because I could not find white cabbage, I substituted broccoli slaw. It was a little too crunchy. I will try purple cabbage next time. Also, I used chipotle salsa that I had on hand. Lindsay Mikols Boman 2014-09-12T13:43:08Z item not reviewed by moderator and published

The best Fish Tacos, and I'm from LA, so I know what a good fish taco should taste like! Do not use Tilapia, good Lord. Buy mahi mahi- the texture and flavor is perfect for a fish taco. Save Tilapia for some "french-ified" dish to mask it's horrible taste. Bobby know this cuisine better than anyone else. This is the best recipe if you want a quality fish taco.

Ummm, awesome! These were great. My boyfriend, who is a far better cook than me, raved. I did use Sea Bass (frozen) because I had it on hand. And I melded the cabbage with the other garnishments.

I only had tillapia (sp?) on hand, and when it was finished grilling it tasted almost like chicken :) Which was great for my picky eater. I do have to say it was a bit bland. If you make a really good salsa, it works good with the flavors and as a whole I could eat these all day. By itself though, the fish was kinda eh. I use the pico de gallo recipe from melissa d'arabian and it really completed the tacos. Emily F. 2013-10-15T15:05:35Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
Perfect. Fantastic recipe. The fish should be good and fresh (I wouldn't use frozen cod!) and properly cooked because it's all about the fish. We used flour tortillas from Citarella in NY (fantastic) - preferred to corn tortillas. We couldn't find the ancho and used some chipotle powder instead. Overall, the recipe is so delicious yet simple. To make the tomato salsa we used pico - added garlic & black pepper & blended it down. We used halibut cuz that's what was fresh that day. lalstudio 2013-10-14T12:56:12Z item not reviewed by moderator and published

"Ehhhhh". I have to tell you, reading the reviews and seeing the pictures, I was very excited about making this dish. It's healthy, it's simple, IT'S BLAND. Yes, bland. My wife and I took a bit and looked at each other and said, "Really?!" I love this chef and his recipes, but this one will not be used again. It wasn't horrible by any means. It's just that the fish, itself, was flavorless and bland. Chad S. 2013-04-15T13:18:44Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
I have never made fish tacos before. I made 2 slight changes--used regular oregano, but added a dash of cumin. Also, I just cooked the salsa down in the pan without serious blending, just stirring because we like it on the chunky side. When I mentioned I was making them, my husband turned up his nose...he ate three seriously heaped tacos. Thanx Guest 2013-03-22T21:55:05Z item not reviewed by moderator and published

I used tilapia, and the effect of the marinade was outstanding. I will definitely use this marinade again whether I am making tacos or not. I tossed cabbage with white wine vinegar and a smidge of sugar, and I dressed each taco with the cabbage slaw and a dollop of sour cream. I did not bother with the salsa. I am a better than average cook, but I don't have a lot of confidence when it comes to preparing fish. This was the best fish dish I have ever prepared. I will definitely make it again and again.

Marinade was good and the fish was very very flaky (I splurged and bought fresh filets instead of the frozen ones I usually get...wasn't a fan of the salsa, I didn't think it paired very well with the fish. Would definitely recommend using corn tortillas instead of flour tortillas, the texture just felt weird with the fish taco. I liked the idea someone had of mixing the cabbage and onion with white wine vinegar...I wish I had read that before I made them! Just very "meh" to me.

Perfect delicious approach, though I never understand why flour tortillas are preferred, they dont add much in flavor except simple char, and the risk of sogginess is too great. Try making the taco using corn tortillas lightly toasted over blue flame. Marinade is unnecessary if the fish is fresh. Guest 2012-06-03T23:21:54Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
The marinade was great on the fish, but the salsa completely over powered the delicateness of the fish in the tacos. The fish also needs salt and pepper before or after marinading. I may make the salsa less spicy next time I make fish tacos so, I can actually taste the fish. Mmmm....Num, nums! 2012-05-29T16:41:40Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
Easy and delicious. I too used tilapia and a grilling basket. Almost any mild whitefish would work. Used a purchased salsa (Maggie's Pico Salsa, a salsa fresca, available at Kroger and Whole Foods and homemade guac. Even though the recipe doesn't call for salt, I salted the filets just before placing them on the grill. Definitely a keeper. sooz.e.q 2012-05-05T10:51:04Z item not reviewed by moderator and published

Delicious! I followed the directions to a T until the part where you have to grill the fish -I used Cod- and since I live in MN and it was cold and rainy I oven-baked the marinated fish at 500 degrees for 10-12 min. It came out tender and flaky and so flavorful! When we put the fish in the flour tortillas we topped with coarse salt and fresh ground pepper which intensified the flavors. We used cilantro, red onion, cabbage and fresh mango salsa for garnish. Paired with a cold beer we were set. Thanks Bobby Flay!!

I thought it was very good and would make again. I used walleye, just because it was what we had and marinaded it probably 40 minutes. Next time, I would add more lime juice but just because I really like the flavor of lime and would have liked it to come through more. I added salt to the marinade like most other reviews suggested. Additionally, I tossed the cabbage and onions together and poured 1/4 cup white wine vinegar with 1TBS sugar and some salt over it. It gave it a nice zip.

I used tilapia in a fish griller. The fish was tasty and flakey. I cut most of the heat and reduced the onions, particularly in the garnish because of requests. Even kids ate the tacos. I served them with soft and hard shells and it worked well. This was a nice fish dish. Good tasting, easy to make and a hit with almost everyone.

Recipe has some flaws, I believe. The salsa references adding Lime Juice yet it's not in the salsa recipe (it's in the marinade, but not in the list of ingredients for the salsa so I squeezed one lime's juice in just for measure. Also, we used Mahi Mahi as suggested, cooked for the four minutes on one side and 30 seconds on the other as suggested and it was undercooked. I'd suggest something more like four minutes one side, two minutes on the other side. Sure don't need a whole head of cabbage - we probably used 1/8th of the head to use with our tacos. Tasty, but not "knock your socks off" amazing. Lots of compliments on the salsa, however. Will use that on lots of things. NOLA Cook 2012-02-24T21:10:20Z item not reviewed by moderator and published

I thought this was a tasty, simple and healthy version of fish tacos, which I LOVE. I understand what people mean when they say it needed salt, though. That's why I ADDED SALT. For those who may be new to cooking my advice is: unless it's a dessert or maybe a salad, a dish should always have some salt, even if it's just to your taste. I looked at the recipe and decided it must have been a snafu on the part of the editor or something. Maybe they considered the salt in the salsa to be sufficient to flavor the whole dish but it isn't. I sprinkled sea salt on the filets after I set them on the skillet, a little on each side.

OK, I was leery of the marinade, since it mentioned Jalepenos. I typically don't like a lot of heat, although I do love ground pepper and some spices. Just not so spicy that you have to get something to drink to wash down the food!
Awesome recipe. The cilantro gives a great flavor, and having it as a garnish was great. We added some cut up tomato to put on the tortillas. The Mahi Mahi was incredible. Great taste. The only thing I would do to change this recipe would be to put some salt and ground pepper on the fish.

Fish tacos didn't sound quite right, but I know they're insanely popular on the left coast and I'm trying to increase the amount of fish we eat so since these were nice and healthy I thought I'd give them a try. But this was good salsa on boring, bland fish. Just didn't have the depth of flavor Bobby's recipes usually have. Great sauce is the reason for the 3 stars but had it not been for that I would have given it one.

The best cilantro marinate for fish I have ever tasted. dolores m. 2010-04-30T14:30:42Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
This is the best Fish Taco recipe I've ever had. It's definitely getting added to our regular rotation! Elizabeth G. 2010-04-06T08:43:07Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
I converted someone who was very skeptical about the idea of 'fish' tacos into a believer. Will definitely make this again. Thanks Bobby!

Awesome recipe for the marinade, MUST use fresh Cilantro, and not to be picky, but you left out..... the SALT! Ive tried this marinade several ways, subbed fresh Jalapenos with the Chipotle or roasted Jalies with Adobo. Works well with either, but I added salt for a quick marinade or if I have an hour, I'll marinade and salt before grilling, either way, you NEED the salt - Otherwise Bobby, another for the arsenal!

I have made these tacos several times using fresh striped bass that I caught myself. All the ingredients are fresh and subtle enough to allow the delicious mild flavor of the fish to come through in a fantastic way. I don't always make the salsa in the recipe, as I find I like a simple Pico de Gallo more. But the meal is always light while still being satisfying, and I can't recommend using freshly caught fish enough. I'll continue to make these for a long time.

The recipe is good. I altered it slightly by adding adobo seasoning to the recipe. It provides it with some flavor that was needed. va2tokyo 2009-11-08T17:24:52Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
I hate to admit it, b/c it is Bobby Flay and I think he is greatness, but this recipe was not very good. It was creative and had lots of potential, but put together, the tacos were just not very delicious.
I honestly thought they were going to be fantastic. As I was making the many sauces I would taste each individual one and they were all amazing. I was looking forward to the end result since each individual component was so good. I found the fish to be very bland and flavorless and the sauces to completely overwhelm each other. In the end I found the tacos to be full of sauces and not full of flavor. Sorry Bobby. Elizabeth G. 2009-10-15T01:03:31Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
My family and I deeply regretted this recipe. The fish was not flavorful at all. I would not make this again. pat c. 2009-10-13T20:37:49Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
This recipe is much simpler than the fish tacos Bobby made on Throwdown, but they were excellent! I used Tilapia because I already had it on hand, but next time I think I'll use mahi mahi and it'll be even better. The only problem I had was I used sour cream and cabbage to top them. Next time I'll definitely be sure to pick up some crema, which I think will be much better. Scott D. 2009-10-12T00:08:22Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
I made this taco for dinner it was a huge hit with everyone. I cant wait to make it again. Thanks Bobby! Pearl M. 2009-10-11T22:29:04Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
Definately a great fish taco recipe.
One twist we've done is using creme fraiche blended with pureed haas avocados ... it's really good.
Another variation is using fresh pico instead of the salsa ... a little less labor.
So far, we've tried this recipe with marinated-and-grilled mahi mahi, tilapia and fresh gulf shrimp. The mahi mahi is the best, although hailbut might be better.

These are by far the best fish tacos ever. My whole family adores them. The prep work is really comparable to any other taco recipe and the taste is just incredible. Don't skip the cabbage or substitute lettuce, it really completes the recipe. Steffi S. 2009-09-11T12:18:00Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
I have been wanting to try fish tacos for a long time. I was grilling chicken for fajitas and thought I would try some fish with this recipe. I had a little halibut, mahi mahi, and swordfish. We really liked the halibut, then the mahi mahi, then the swordfish. The swordfish was a little more fishy tasting than we liked. Overall, it was awesome. I used shredded romaine, sour cream, onions, jalapenos and salsa for my toppers. These were great! I will share this recipe at work tomorrow :o) Naomi B. 2009-08-31T20:48:01Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
It's a good thing you're here to tell Bobby Flay what to do. A burrito is encased, a taco is folded. A crunchy taco is American. An authentic Mexican taco is soft, using a corn or a flour tortilla. Bobby's fish tacos are made with small flour tortillas. This is a taco. Food Gma 11406239 2014-07-02T02:09:51Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
chef - That was a very awkward comment, how do you see burrito here? A burrito is normally a lot larger, but, also rolled up.... Hempskool 2014-07-25T15:05:25Z item not reviewed by moderator and published
