Great lunch place. Quick service, affordable price, good food makes this our favorite for group lunches. They list the source of their fish which is so needed information nowadays. They do not have much in terms of wild fish but even knowing the origin of your fish is super helpful. You choice two sides with your meal and the sauce. The salsas are self serve in a salsa bar. Overall we always leave this place with a pleasant experience

Convenient and great service. This location is consistent with their service and it is never overly crowded. It's in a plaza that makes it convenient if there are other errands to do. The fish is always fresh and the dishes are very delicious. I would recommend the fish and chips, fish tacos they come with rice and beans, and the wild salmon salad.

OMG this place is so amazing. I'm a huge fish fan and California Fish Grill is definitely heaven for me. They have many choices of fishes grilled or fried on plates, salads, tacos or rices. The fishes are grilled to perfection. The sauces are rich and perfectly salted. Every bite is pure satisfaction.Service is also amazing. Staffs are friendly and helpful. The decor is modern and clean. On top of that, the prices are super reasonable. This is the one of the restaurants I've ever been to. Highly recommended!!

The fish and chips were light and crisp, not greasy at all. The fries were flavored as well which was a nice surprise. I liked that you could choose a dipping sauce at the flavor bar as well. Casual outdoor seating was perfect for the family and for small children. The best part is that they serve wine! I will definitely be coming back!

I love this place. The food is great and the price is very reasonable. It can be a bit busy during lunch time but he line moves relatively fast. I suggest the garlic butter shrimp and the clam chowder soup.

The grilled fish was simple and fresh. Portions and pricing are reasonable (average is $12/plate). They also have bowls, salads, fried seafood.

It was okay... My expectations were high because my ToGo experience was far better than my dine in one. The young lady who was the cashier seemed like she didn't want to be there. She barely paid attention to my order, so much so that she neglected to place my order correctly and I had to make a request for my 2nd side because I didn't get it. I had to ask for the Pepsi to be changed out because it had ran out. My last issue is that it took such a long time to get our food and once we got it, it was warm and NOT hot! I was really disappointed...

This restaurant is great if you want to have a fresh seafood filled lunch or dinner. I order the Atlantic salmon with garlic butter french fries, white rice and a shrimp skewer. The service is always on point, even though most of the time there is a long line. It's worth the wait. The quality of food is excellent and pricing is reasonable.

Affordable gourmet fish! Where else can you get high quality grilled fish of your choice for only $7 to $11?! The cost depends on what kind of fish you pick. I picked the white fish and it was great. You can pick anything from Ahi to Salmon to Sea Bass to Swordfish and more! Then you chose your sauce. I chose garlic butter and it turned out to be a wonderful creamy butter sauce. By the way the roasted Brussel Sprouts with sweet Balsamic glaze are amazing!

Recently dined here with a friend. We both had the grilled fish plate which includes two sides of your choice. There is also a nice selection of natural sodas to choose from (ones that do not contain high fructose corn syrup). I had the Catfish plate with rice and grilled zucchini. My friend had the Rainbow trout with rice & beans. We both enjoyed our meals. The service was fast and friendly. The two plates with two drinks came to just under $26.

Always enjoy the food here. However, just visited the location off Barranca for dine in indoors but before I could enjoy my meal, a bunch of gnats kept nose diving into the food. After much debate, finally decided to at least try to get a new plate but was made to feel like I was asking for something completely special. Just want my food free of insects. Requested it to to go. After waiting for 20 more mins, had to go up to service counter to inquire how much longer it would be for my replacement. I was told they forgot. 30 mins later I finally have gnat free food(I hope) in a to go box. Think I'll enjoy it in the car.

I enjoy Coconut curry shrimp bowl so much that I find it hard to order anything else. There are shrimp within the rice and seasonings as well as a skewer of grilled shrimp on top. The bowl has a "nip" to it and is absolutely delicious. The food here is very healthy and the preparation with enough spice to make it delicious. California Fish Grill is one of my favorite places to eat.

California Fish Grill is one of my favorite places to eat. You can get an excellent choice f fish and they even tell you how they were caught and if wild or from farms, etc. There's a choice of garnishment on the fish, and a salsa and condiment bar that is wonderful. I ordered the Swordfish, talapia, and scallops over several visits. I keep coming back ! They are the best for fresh fish.

Great selection of wild and farm raised fish along with delicious vegetables. Friendly staff and lots of parking make this an excellent lunch or dinner spot.

This restaurant is one of my favorites for fish. The prices are affordable and the food is always fresh. The street corn is amazingly delicious! The biggest problem that you will have here is finding a place to sit inside the restaurant. It is always crowded and the seating is a problem because restaurant employees do nothing to help people find a seat. I have had to change my order to-go several times because I was unable to find a table when my food was ready. When they address this problem, the restaurant will be much more enjoyable!!

Had the rockfish. Good texture, slightly more well done than expected but overall still very juicy and very fresh. Also sampled the fish and chips, batter was fried to a crispy and delicious crunch, the fish was soft and delicate. Also very fresh as well. The range of sauces and salsas they had meant that your fish was interesting to eat on each and every single bite. Prices were more than agreeable to boot.

While I continue to dine here and still enjoy the food, I've noticed during my most recent visit that the portion size of the rice has decreased significantly. While this is disappointing, I understand that many small businesses need to either increase prices or decrease portion size in order to offset higher expenses due to increase in the state minimum wage. Unfortunately, this is the trend since the politicians want to increase taxes for businesses which, in turn, the businesses pass the higher expenses to the consumer. So, anyone who thinks that middle class taxes won't increase, don't forget that businesses WILL increase prices because tthe business needs to make up the money somehow. So, we will all be paying more for everything while getting less.This is not a political statement, it's just reality, sadly.----------Reasonably priced. Healthy fish options. Lots of different fish to select from.Love the garlic butter sauce.

Arrived here around 8:25pm on a Thursday night and there was no wait and was able to order immediately. This was a pleasant surprise since there's usually a long line for dinner. Once I ordered it took about 15 minutes for food you arrive.I ordered a Barramundi (Cajun style) with cole slaw and grilled zucchini. I also ordered a cup of New England Clam Chowder. Soup was good! Fish was also really good however I wished there was more of it.I have been going here for years and I feel like the fish size used to be bigger. But the taste of the food and service is solid and would definitely come back. The only downside is that this place can get pretty busy and wait times for food van get pretty long; tonight was an exception.

This is a great place to get fish is very popular and it can get very busy sometimes it's hard to get a seat here but it is worth it you get your food relatively quickly and they have a wide variety of items on the menu I highly recommend this place I've been here multiple times and the food is very consistent.

We’ve got calamari , rockfish classic and shrimp.It was a lovely place but the calamari was super Crispy i can say it was ok with the tartar sauce i can say the tartar sauce was one of the best I’ve ever had but the calamari i can give 4 out of 10.The rockfish classic was cold and rice wasn’t cooked well and the shrimp didn’t have any spice it was just grilled . I was hoping could give them at least 4 stars . The customer service was good.

Questions & Answers

I don't think they deliver you need to call them

Yes it is open! We went a few days ago and had a wonderful experience. Go check it out!

I believe they have some chicken plates, other than that I’d says it’s 90 percent seafood

Probably door dash or grub hub

Salad can be ordered a la carte but not in a salad bar.
