Keith Heinritz Catering

This place was as disgusting as it gets. The gentleman who brought me my take-​out meal looked as if he didn’t bathe in eight years. One of the workers was smoking a cigarette out on the front steps as I was trying to walk in with my two young children. She was missing approximately 8 to 10 teeth. The cooking items inside looked dirty as ever.
To top it off, they do not accept debit or credit cards. They don’t tell you that of course. So, when I arrived at the place I had to go back into my car drive around town and find an ATM in order to pay for my meal that they already cooked.
The 16 year old cooking the fish had purple hair with some rock band shirt with no sleeves. If the health department went in this place they’d have a field day. It would be condemned within minutes. My fish sandwich platter came with 2 sides. It set me back 20 dollars. The fish was ok. Id give it a 6 or 7. I wont be back for sure. Gross.

amazing fish sandwich !! homemade hot sauce is splendid as well !!

The fish is the best and so are the people.
Come hungry and, still, you might be taking leftovers home!
Our favorite place for fish… EVER.

I am happy to be the first reviewer of Keith Heinritz Catering. This is the place to come for incredible fish sandwiches on the east side of Pittsburgh. Don’t be alarmed by the «hole in the wall» appearance from the outside because the inside is the same (ha ha). This is a pretty clean place for the high volume of activity going on here. If you order a large fish sandwich — it is enough to feed 2 people (but you may want to get an extra bun or 2). The krinkle cut fries and clam chowder soup are also very good.
What makes the fish so good? Very good light breading but most importantly — extremely fresh tasting big chunks of perfectly fried fish. The big hunks of fish tend to fall apart when you eat it. Not greasy like some fish fries. No sign of a bad or old taste to the oil and fried stuff despite the long line and high volume. Perfect and yummy. They have about 7 or 8 workers swarming in the little kitchen and they seem to be serving it up fresh with minimal wait.
A few more important notes — CASH ONLY. If you want to go on a Friday in Lent, you should consider ordering and picking up before 5:00pm to avoid the longer lines. There are some tables in here but most people take out. These folks are the experts — much better fried fish than that church basement down the road (please don’t tell the priest or pastor that I said that). Give this place a try.
