Before I even talk about the walleye sandwich itself, I need to make something perfectly clear: Culver’s decimated the competition in this taste test. Truly destroyed everybody. Their not-one-but-two sandwiches are the only ones that taste like an actual piece of fried fish. Many of the others I tried seemed like fish patties, mashed together to form something resembling a sandwich shape. At Culver’s, it legitimately tastes like they just dipped a battered piece of fish into a fryer, took it out, and served it to you. In fact, they claim that these are all made to order.
My walleye was properly seasoned, tender inside, and crispy outside. Unfortunately, the thick, all-too-sweet roll that it’s served on is a little overwhelming, but I can get past that. This is the best piece of fried fish you can get at a fast-food joint.
