    These are amazing. Golden guys in golden oil. Denser than a sardine, more umami. The olive oil is fragrant in the best way. Home run fish.

    I’ve never tried garfish and didn’t realize they were so small. I found these little fellas resting in a tasty olive oil to be a wonderful snack.

    These are nice. I don’t know if my pallete is sophisticated enough to tell the difference between them and sardines. They seem a little saltier and more umami than sardines, but not a huge difference.

    I love Garfish. these are meatier and they do have a wonderful flavor. ate these on a saltine and some stone-ground mustard. delicious! You can’t go wrong with these.

    These are amazing. Ate them right out of the tin. They have a beautiful skin, silver on the belly and a deep black on the back. I did not detect any bones. There were 4 pieces in the tin, all in perfect condition. They are very meaty. The oil was very rich. I will 100% get these again.

    I’ve never had garfish before, so I didn’t know what to expect. There were 4 fish in the tin bathed in a golden olive oil. The fish themselves were a little dryer than sardines that I’ve had, but tasted very similar – maybe slightly fishier and saltier. They were delicious by themselves, and also great on crackers.

    All the garfish I’ve tried have been at least very good. These are no exception. A bit smaller than some, a bit less firm, but tasty & filling. Alternate with sardines, or choose sides if you must; I’m with the more is more team. Whatever you drink with smoky sprats will go fine with these.

    Everything about this tin was beautiful. The box is high quality, the artwork is very cool. There were four fish in the tin. Like a very long sardine. Very firm meat. These just looked like very clean and healthy looking fish. The oil was a great consistency. I used it to spread on some bread I had toasted as part of the meal. These are at the high end of my price range, but I would get them again. Especially if I was opening them for guests or to show them to someone not quite sure about tinned fishes. We ate some just straight out of the tin, some on toasted bread with a spoonful of freshly grated San Marzano tomatoes from the garden.
