We visited this location on a Sunday around 7pm. The host told us for a party of two it would be a…read more20 minute wait regardless if we wanted to sit inside or outside, but if we didn't want to wait there was open bar seating. I asked if the menu was the same, and the host confirmed that it was exactly the same. The bar was HUGE. It had to have seated at least 50 people. I'd say probably about 30 people at the actual bar, and then 20 people on the tables/ high tops on the perimeter of the bar. Our server's name was Christian. He handed us the menus and we realized that it was DineLA. Christian told us that it had just started on Friday. For a drink, I ordered the 6oz Two Squared Sauvignon Blanc, while my partner got the watermelon spritz. Later in the night we also ended up getting a draft beer and and unsweetened ice tea. Then we were ready to order and our server asked us if we wanted to order everything at once, or if we wanted to space it out. We ended up ordering everything at once, but the food came spaced out so I'm not sure if they did that behind the scenes for us, or if it just ended up that way due to the kitchen being backed up. Regardless, the timing worked out well for us because we weren't waiting long at all for the next course once we got done with whatever was being served to us. We ended up ordering the Oysters Sampler. We decided on 4 of each oyster (Grassy Bar, Seaduction, and Chincoteague). Then, off the DineLA menu, we ordered charbroiled oysters, New England Clam Chowder, Blue Eye Trevalla, Fijian Ono, Key Lime Pie, and Flourless Chocolate Cake. My standout for this meal was definitely the Chincoteague oysters. They were perfectly balanced with brine and tasting very crisp and fresh. Now that I think about it, it probably would have been good with some sparkling water. My other highlight was the flourless chocolate cake. To me, it resembled a lava cake without the chocolate in the middle. It was very rich and decadent and paired very well with the cold ice cream. I also really enjoyed the pineapple coleslaw. There were little chunks of pineapple in it that tasted sweet and refreshing. While we didn't plan on going here because of DineLA, I had a lot of fun trying new dishes. We don't often gravitate toward cooked fish (we eat a lot of sushi), so this was a really nice change of pace. I would recommend this restaurant for a nice night out or a date night.

Went last week to check out the new bar. It's a huge space but not sure what the goal is. Bar is…read morea long and straight 20 seat monster. Bunch of TV's and a decent selection of drinks. But it is REALLY loud. There were maybe 9 people in there and you had yell at the person next to you because it's all concrete and metal. Not sure who thought this would work but it definitely does not. Also doesn't look like anyone had a plan of what they wanted the space to be. Live music? DJ? The acoustics are going to be awful. It's a massive space with a bunch of tables and nothing else. It's quite simply just odd. As for the food, it's not good. Anyone who says otherwise is lying. Pretty bland and nothing is fresh. It's also outrageously overpriced. Chicken fajitas were meh and they were $27.00. We got shrimp and they were rubbery and came in a plastic bag, which was in a bucket. Weird. Also, no silverware. Only plastic. Just a headscratcher all around. The website says they have happy hour but they didn't have a separate menu. Just two dollars off drinks is what w were told. Probably why it was empty at 5:30. Also weird. They have this huge space and don't seem to have any idea what to do with it. Drinks were the same as the food. Wildly overpriced and the bartender didn't seem to know what they were doing. So, fitting for the overall concept. I was excited about the new bar because we have an office down the street but this looks like a hard pass for me. 5 stars is for the staff because they were great.

I came here recently for lunch with my wife. The place is huge. There is a massive bar area down a…read morefew steps, while the "dining" tables are adequately spaced "upstairs". The mall this place is in is a dump. There is a Mexican restaurant next door. I mention this because there is the crab/seafood menu and then there is an extensive Mexican food menu as well. I wonder if they just get the Mexican food from the restaurant next door? I don't know, nothing wrong in that. The tables have a paper "tablecloth" on them with plastic utensils. The reason for this is they don't use plates. They just bring you your seasoned seafood in a double plastic bag, and it is dumped out onto the paper "tablecloth". I saw this happening at the only other occupied table and immediately lost my appetite. My wife, undeterred, ordered some mussels. Ordinarily, we'll also order vegetables with any meal, but the side servings of vegetables are priced like filet mignon. I asked if I ordered the chips & guacamole, did it come with a serving of salsa? Alas, our server said no. What does a tiny amount of salsa cost a restaurant? 50 cents? So, I stuck with a glass of water. I was done. I couldn't bring myself to eat here. My wife ate a few of the mussels, digging them out from the plastic bags with her plastic fork. She said they were "ok" but we paid and departed, after a very poor experience. No pictures because I wasn't in the mood.

They have dishes like grilled salmon (multiple types!) with your choice of sides, from fries to brussels sprouts. (Another choice of protein is chicken! Yes, chicken!) They remind me a lot of Urban Plates, which also has the similar style grilled/ cooked protein with simple and easy dinner style sides. When we entered, they had a walkway that went to the cash registers where you could either order yourself on a screen or with someone. The service was pretty fast and took no long than 10 minutes, and has always been pretty easy (considering most of the actual customer service is a screen.) The prices and the sizes? Personally, I think they're great! I get what I can eat as really, two separate meals, and it's less than $20. Now is it the best fish in California? Maybe not. It's fast, it's easy, but this isn't a hamburger or a fast-food chain that makes you feel bad about eating junk food; this is a place that actually gives you those healthier options, but at a sweeter price point, yet RELIABLE - especially when it comes to fish.

I felt so bad for wasting it, but went from really hungry to literally not being hungry in the slightest. It wasn't in my partner's food, and yet it still grossed them out enough to stop eating, as well. We would have went back and gotten a refund if we weren't already sat at home with the to-go food. You can tell the cleanliness is not being kept up with over time and that their standards for being hygienic are not a priority. I would skip next time if I were you!!

I think I went to heaven when I bit into the Cajun style orange roughy. I've never had roughy before, only known about it's crazy long life, living over 200 years, but the smoky spicy seasoning was so addicting, and then it wrapped my tongue in a hug with beautifully flakey and sweet fish. But I'm certain this place could take the grossest fish in the world and make it the greatest meal I've ever had. Paired it with a delicious green salad and french fries since it comes with 2 sides. I was so stuffed by the end, if you threw me into the ocean I would probably sink in contentment. Also got the Athenian shrimp pasta, I think I died in heaven and reached second heaven. The world's greatest linguini, perfectly al dente, with deliciously juicy shrimp, tomatoes, feta, and 2 slices of soft buttery bread to soak up the sauce? The sweetest service too. Salad came out first and by the time the salad was done around 10 minutes later, steaming hot food magically appeared. I cannot believe how dead it was when we walked in, this place should have a line all the way to LA at all times. I did stifle a small laugh at the fish tacos. Absolutely delicious of course, but I do love this rendition. 100% coming again
