If there is one thing I enjoy about late winter in Cincinnati it is the Catholic lenten fish fry. Lent is the traditional Christian period of fasting and prayer that lasts for 40 days before Easter, beginning on Ash Wednesday (February 6). For Catholics in Cincinnati is means seven straight Fridays of fish frys! I actually gave up (and not just for lent) all the Catholic stuff years ago . . . but I still enjoy a good parish festival or fish fry and of course I still marvel at the architecture.
So I need some recommendations for good fish frys in the Cincinnati area. I hear St Teresa of Avila in Price Hill has a good one every Friday, organized by their
Boy Scout Troop 271. Let me know your favorite!

I have tried many of the fish frys. Two that stand out as good were Nativity in Pleasant Ridge and St. Clare in College Hill.
I have been trying to find the one closest to downtown.
I'm not Catholic (and not from Cincinnati) but I love fish fry season (hehe some call it Lent). Our favorite in Cincinnati is in Walnut Hills, at St. Francis deSales Church at the corner of Woodburn Ave. and Madison Road. Fresh battered fish, homemade mac-n-cheese with a crispy top, all good.
