For our first fish fry review of the 2024 Lenten season, we headed to Ally’s Bistro in Menomonee Falls.
Ally’s offers diners two options for its fish fry dinner: perch, and cod dipped in Pabst Blue Ribbon beer batter.
As has been stated in previous TMJ4 fish fry blog posts, always go with the perch when given an option. And that philosophy served us well yet again during our visit to Ally’s.
The perch was served in three meaty fillets which, quite honestly, was more than enough fish for one person. The fillets were perfectly fried with no greasy aftertaste.
Ally’s offers diners a side of either fries, sweet potato fries, baked potato, or potato pancakes.

Pro tip: when given these options or a variety thereof, always go with the potato pancake. Ally’s potato pancake is clearly homemade given its rich taste. It paired perfectly with the applesauce Ally’s also provides with the meal.
Combined with some extremely tasty coleslaw and ample tartar sauce, Ally’s fish fry dinner checks all the requisite boxes.
Expect to pay $15.99 for the cod dinner and $18.99 for the perch.
Ally’s is located near the intersection of Good Hope Road and Appleton Avenue and is worth the drive to Menomonee Falls for dinner on a Friday night!
