I love the food and price at this restaurant, but the hosts/cashiers have terrible attitudes. I've eaten here a dozen times, and it's a lot of the same. The young women never smile, they don't say hello when you enter, they don't ask for your order (they expect you to say "can I order?". The cooks and bussers and attentive and happy to be there. The food and price is great and makes up for the bad attitudes. read more

Best happy hour ever! The oysters are such a good price and always so fresh and delicious.

I can't believe it's been almost a year since I visited sea surf They're in my neighborhood and truly have a solid happy hour if you want healthier options. The place is super casual, mostly open air so bring a sweater because it can get chilly. Five or six seats at the bar, which were full on this visit. If you sit at the bar, you can actually order from the server from your seat which I do like. otherwise stand in line ...order and pay and they give you a number... food, comes out very quickly. On this visit, I just had a fish taco. They give you a choice of grilled or fried I chose grilled. My son got poke nachos and a fried fish, taco and guacamole and chips. I shared his guac and chips and took a bite or two of his pokey nachos. The food is very consistent fresh and delicious Happy hour drinks are all beer and wine. They have a very streamlined selection. There are five beers I believe and as far as wine, there's one sauv Blanc one Chardonnay, one rosé, and one red. Nothing fancy very basic but palatable wines. read more

After hiking the coastline, my husband and I had a big appetite for some fish tacos. We decided to go to Seasurf Fish Co as it had great ratings and was nearby. The place is easy to find and in a large plaza with a Vons, CVS, and various other shops. We went on a Wednesday evening and were able to get a table. I went for the 2 fish taco plate with chips and my husband got the fish burrito. We also got a side of garlic Parmesan fries. I loved my fish tacos and all the salsas that came with it! The tacos were battered and crispy and had a fair amount of fish. I loved the red and green salsas- they were so flavorful without being too spicy. I loved how they gave beans and chips with the meal as well! The whole meal was only $10.99. It was such a good deal! My husband loved his burrito as well- it was huge. The fries were tasty- lots of garlic and Parmesan flavor. We loved this place and will come back for the happy hour! :) read more

Seasurf Fish Co - The Classic Fish Taco - Seafood Near Me - Del Mar, California

We came here for lunch around 1pm with another couple and our three kids under four and it was about half full when we arrived. Parking was super easy since it's in a huge plaza. The setup is pretty casual, you order at the counter and then find your own table. We grabbed a nice corner booth with which worked out great for our group and all the kids. We ordered the calamari, parmesan garlic fries, and the cornmeal battered fish. Our friends got the quinoa bowl with cod and the garlic shrimp rice plate. The standout for me was definitely the cornmeal battered fish. It was fresh, juicy, and cooked really well. The fries that came with it were just okay, but the coleslaw was surprisingly one of my favorites I've had. The Parmesan garlic fries were interesting, there was too much garlic and the garlic was way too spicy and overpowering. It was inexpensive, which probably explains why there seemed to be more batter than actual calamari. The texture was also inconsistent, some pieces were so chewy that we could barely bite through them. But I'd honestly come back just for that fish and slaw combo. The calamari was a little disappointing. My biggest and only issue was the wait for our food. Our friends got their meals pretty quickly, but ours never came out. My husband checked twice, and both times we were told it was coming soon. Meanwhile, two tables that came in after us got their food, and one even finished and left before ours arrived. Our friends were deliberately eating slowly so we could all eat together, but they still ended up finishing before our food showed up which sucked since they had to wait for us later. Despite that, I thought the food was good overall. Hopefully the delay was just an off day because the fish was definitely worth ordering and eating again! read more

I love this place!! It still doesn't disappoints after years of not eating it and coming back because was craving their cioppino. Took my PIL here and they loved it too. They got fish and chips and a poke bowl. I got a cioppino and the seafood is plentiful and fresh. Still affordable pricing too. My cioppino is one of the best casual cioppinos but plenty and I mean plenty of seafood in the cioppino. Better than a lot of fancy restaurants! I would come here for lunch every day but unfortunately I don't work in the area anymore. read more

Thank you to my coworker for introducing this place to me! We now order from here for work lunches on a regular basis. I've tried a few things from here, but my absolute favorites are the North Shore Garlic Shrimp and the Ahi Poke Salad. They are fresh, packed with flavor, and make for fantastic leftovers as well! I really want to visit the restaurant itself because I'm sure it will be even better! read more

Best Happy Hour! Actually came here during non-happy hour time for lunch. Decent prices still, especially for seafood. Fish and chips always good here. Fish cooked perfectly!! Malt vinegar available. Classic fish burrito is good. Lots of rice and beans, but can still take the fish. Nice, healthier choice. Nothing overly salty. Great salsas to add. Order at door. Service is super fast. Seating is nice and open. Bring a sweater if breezy as it gets chilly in there. read more

The PERFECT meal to enjoy by the beach! We had an amazing experience here. The service was wonderful and the prices were fair! We ordered the fish & chips and the California poke bowl (half salmon, half tuna) - everything was so delicious and the portions were generous. I would absolutely come back and dine in for their happy hour, which they offer every day! Highly recommend for anyone craving fresh seafood. read more

This place is so good. It's located in a shopping center so PLENTY of parking. They have a DAILY happy hour from 3-6pm. Came in and ordered oysters, Poki nachos, ceviche mixto, and Poki bowl.

Everything looked amazing, I'll be coming back to try more of their food. read more

Seasurf Fish Co - Best fish tacos! Seafood was so fresh! - Seafood Near Me - Del Mar, California

I've been having a craving for fish and chips even though it is not very healthy. Finally decided to get some tonight and thought that Seasurf would probably have a better version than other local restaurants since they have very fresh fish and do so much of it. Sure enough, their fish and chips platter was great. The fish was delicious and the batter was great. Probably won't get this again anytime soon, but it was excellent! read more

Located in between Vons and CVS. Free large parking lot. Ordered the poke bowl to eat in the car while commuting. Poke is already premade and mixed. They only need to scoop everything into a bowl. Order at the counter, pay and they bring the food. The paper bowl they use is horrendous. Within the minutes it took to walk to my car, the oil from the poke dressing seeped through the bowl and got all over my pants. I had to run home to treat my pants overnight to remove the oil stains. They need to use better quality bowls. The salmon chunks are cut way too thick and big. The poke was ok only, didn't taste super fresh and good. Meh experience and they need to contract another company to supply their to go cheapie bowls. read more

If you are craving oysters and with a small group this is a solid place. I was here with my girlfriend and friend and enjoyed the happy hour after spending time at the Del Mar flower cliff. We tried three different oysters and all three choices were great, even though I don't eat oysters much. The ceviche had great taste, calamari was crispy, clams and chorizo was good, and the poke nachos was alright. Don't expect the best service as you go to the counter to order, but the food and beer are good. read more

The best food and prices for happy hour ! 3pm -6pm. We didn't order alcohol so can't comment. But the food we ordered was amazing and very reasonably priced The food was super delicious, and fresh. We ordered one of each fish taco. Grilled and fried. Yummy The poke nachos were out of this world. Poke , I think imitation crab and a few scallops. Chips were fresh and crunchy. The clams omg! Next time I'm ordering several bowls. It was that good. We arrived at 430. No line and plenty of tables available. By 530 tho the place was full and there was a small line. You order at the counter and they give you a table number and bring your order out. I ordered a Coke which was given to me in a can but I was able to help myself to the fountain area for ice. Not sure if any ice snobs are reading this. But the ice was clean and was small rounded beads of ice water. Reminded me of a sonic or canes ice quality. read more

Stopped by after a hike at Torrey Pines. I was surprised at the location in a strip mall just east of I-5 next to an Albertsons. A very casual, small place with indoor and patio tables. I missed Happy Hour, but we made it for Taco Tuesday at $2 per fish taco. Great prices, very fresh seafood and made to order. You check the menu, order, pay and take a number to your table. The service was quick and the food was delicious. I will definitely be returning for Happy Hour! read more

Came here on a Friday night. It was pretty crowded. Parking lot was packed. Parking- there are a few handicap spaces, but it was Friday night, had to drive around a bit. Service-You order at the counter and hope there's seating, We were fortunate to find a table for 7 people. Food- it came out really fast -Raw oysters on the half shell: very fresh and smooth -Ginger Garlic Shrimp: they called it "North shore," huge portion of shrimp. I'm a garlic lover, wished it had more garlic. -Fish and Chips: battered and fried just right -poke Bowl: average size, had a good portion of poke -Hawaiian Poke Salad: very good portion and very filling with the edamame -Crispy calamari: it is nice and crispy -Fishermen's Clam chowder: it's a little bit too thick and if you're comparing it to Monterey's Fishermen's Grotto, Monterey is better. -Baja Seafood Chowder: it was the least favorite. It was just average in taste and size. Return Factor- Yes, because of all the variety of choices. read more

Haiku: Seasurf Fish Co Fresh seafood choices Must try for Happy Hour Wallet-friendly price. --- Happy Hour, 3-6p daily. Prices ranging from $3 - $8. My family and I came for evening happy hour specials and were blown away by the fresh seafood selections, all at affordable prices. We just can't get over the huge happy hour portion sizes. We ordered a bunch of items and did family style. Must order happy hour menu items: - $1.50 Fresh Shucked Oysters (3 order minimum) - Ceviche Mixto $8: Perfectly citrus-marinated fresh fish, octopus, and shrimp, served with homemade tortilla chips. It was light and refreshing. I can't wait to come back for more! - Poke Nachos $8: Fully loaded fresh ahi tuna poke mixed with succulent mini scallops and imitation crab, all tossed with pico de gallo and creamy sriracha mayo. All served with homemade tortilla chips. - Chimchurri Cauliflower $4: Roasted cauliflower florets topped with chimchurri sauce. A great way to enjoy veggies--full of flavor! From the regular menu: - Salmon Poke Bowl $13: Thick cubes of sesame-soy marinated salmon were so satisfying over a bed of fresh rice, pickled cucumbers, and seasoned furikake. - Fisherman's Wharf Clam Chowder, $8 large: creamy, flavorful, and generous with the clams. My kid scooped this up, and she usually doesn't like clam chowder. We didn't enjoy the Crispy Calamari. It was unbelievably greasy and the calamari at the bottom were dripping with oil. Service was mid. You order at the counter and are given a number to take to your table. The food will be brought to the table. The restaurant is always busy during this time, and you just gotta flag someone down if you need anything else. This spot is popular during happy hour. We arrived at 5p on a Sunday and waited for about 30 minutes before we got seated. There's patio seating with a few booths that can accommodate larger parties of 6. read more

Fish tacos anyone? You've come to the right place. Lightly battered or tender grilled, this is the place. Clam chowder, yep they have it. Good but I prefer less potatoes and more clams but this is still good. Nice and thick. Very creamy. Poke nachos. - awesome Raw oysters - sweet and fresh. Recommend $2 taco Tuesday or everyday $2 Happy Hour Tacos and the extended happy hour menu. read more

Ciopino is a must!! generous servings of different seafood foodies served with rice and toasted bread for an affordable price .

Haven't tried their happy hour menu yet but it's unbeatable. read more

Not The Place For Cioppino We ordered cioppino given reviews but would not recommend this dish. The broth was flavorless and dampened the seafood variety of flavors. And the bed of white rice--was the chef reaching for gumbo? The merger slice of bread tasted like it came out of a microwave. Too much hominy which seems strange for this dish. No hint of garlic or onion. read more

Absolutely delicious from start to finish. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully put together. The fish tacos were perfectly crispy with great toppings, the poke-style nachos were loaded with high-quality fish and sauces, and the seafood boil was generous, well-seasoned, and cooked just right. Loved the variety, bold flavors, and thoughtful presentation. Portions were solid and everything tasted fresh--not greasy or heavy. This is the kind of place you want to come back to and bring friends. Highly recommend! read more

I never thought a place like Seasurf Fish Co could exist; affordable, fresh seafood in this economy? No way! The space is decently large where you order at the counter and they will bring the food to your table. The cashier was working both the main line of customers plus those that sat at the bar (kudos to her). I think menu-wise they strike a good balance between diverse seafood options and a menu-leaning more on the larger side. There's definitely going to be something for everyone (poke bowls, burritos, tacos, salad, fish plates, etc). The crispy calamari were great with a good batter. I really liked their homemade cocktail sauce that it came with too. For $8, this is a great shareable. The chimichurri cauliflower ($4) was so good too! The chimichurri was so flavorful and together it was a great combination. The garlic parmesan fries ($2) were good as well with a good amount of garlic on top. I got 3 a la carte tacos (mix and match; beer-batter fish taco, cajun fish taco, avocado shrimp). The best one was by far the beer-batter fish taco. The batter was nice and crispy and overall I felt that you really got the best flavor from it vs the other ones. We also got the White Fish Basa plate which comes with rice and vegetables. It's a big order and for only $13?! How is this possible?! The fish was delicious and the overall plate was so worth it. For the two people who were sharing it, they couldn't even finish it. The fish was flavored great and flaky. The only miss was the Baja Seafood Chowder. Personally I wasn't a fan of the flavor profile/seasoning. It felt very one-note and so I'd skip this next time. But as you can tell, there's no place that provides affordable and great seafood like SeaSurf. read more

After a UCSD appointment I was hungry and remembered I'd enjoyed happy hour here in the past. I had been meaning to come back, but I don't live close. The timing was perfect. We indecisively looked at the menu and chose our items. Fish tacos, chicken and black bean nachos and ginger garlic wings. The tacos tasted okay but the layer of breading was so thick and excessive that you couldn't taste the fish and most bites were mostly breading. The chicken nachos had a lot of flavor and were my favorite. The wings were my dining partner's favorite. Everything was good with the exception of the excessive breading on the fish. The prices are great, the portions are good sized and the atmosphere is welcoming and homey. I rounded up from 3.5 to 4 because Yelp doesn't offer 1/2 stars. That being said he wants to come back and so do I!! read more

Seasurf has a wide selection of fresh seafood options at a reasonable price. There is a large wall of beers on tap and options for those who don't eat seafood including the salads and bowls with grilled chicken.

***A Miracle Spot!*** Fresh seafood, good variety, and great portions...at a non traditional California price. Starting with the oysters! They had 3 varieties and we had a dozen of 4 each. It was as if they plucked them right out of the ocean that day! They might have still been alive? .. And Hanna was the amazing guide to the menu, giving us her personal recommendations. She was exceptional and although we were there for the seafood, she enhanced our dining experience! The Poke was phenomenal! Great portions of each ingredient and a healthy portion of Ahi! ..sorry Nemo, big brother is in culinary heaven now. The classic fish taco....it was absolutely classic and delicious. Enough fish to make 4 tacos easily. I REGRET ordering it. As delicious and satisfying as it was, it hides the taste of your fish. ***Please don't make my mistake.**** Stick to the fresh not fried seafood. Enjoy it in its purest form. I only have so much room in this belly and I prefer to fill it with fresh fish not batter. This quaint hidden gem was the perfect low key place for a memorable seafood lunch. read more

On a recent trip to Rancho Santa Fe, we were looking for a quick and tasty dinner nearby. Seasurf Fish Co was not too far away and looked like a winner. We just missed their happy hour unfortunately but that menu looks great as well. This fast casual restaurant is located in a strip mall close to the 5 freeway. There's a bar, indoor, and outdoor seating. As soon as you walk in, there's a cashier area where you order your food and drinks, get a number, and sit. We ordered a clam chowder, spicy poke bowl, fish tacos, and two Cokes. The Cokes come in cans and they'll give you cups of ice. They also have a craft soda machine. The clam chowder came out first. It's thick, creamy, and very comforting. We got our entrees shortly after the clam chowder arrived. The tuna in the poke bowl was great, lots of flavor and went perfectly with the sweet, pickled cucumbers. The rice in the bowl was not the best, it was a bit hard and very stuck together. The rest of the items in the bowl were so good, I didn't even care. The fish tacos came with a side of chips, salsas, and beans. The fish tacos were seasoned well and were a good size. I would love to try some of the other items on the menu in the future. The table next to us had the peel apart shrimp-not sure of the exact name but it smelled divine! read more

It was delicious. The fish tacos, all of them, plus the fish and chips, were all top tier. It's definitely their strongest area, and I can't help but give it immense praise. Service is where it goes from 5 stars to 4. It's not really all that present. The servers aren't waiters, they don't ask to refill your water or come to collect your food. While that's definitely a plus for some people out there, and also expected for a restaurant for this style, I still feel I must penalize it. Ambience is their weakest area I believe. It was loud, and although I appreciate the open side of the restaurant, the fact that it's not sealed off means that it can get noisy from the outside and that a chilly breeze runs through the whole restaurant. Might be to your liking, but not mine. read more

Yumm!! Came for happy hour and the food was amazing. I loved the ceviche and poke nachos. The oysters were also at an amazing price too and was very fresh and delicious.

Will definitely be back! read more

Food is fresh at a good price point. Plenty of available free parking. Open seating. Service could be friendlier but they aren't rude, just young people not concerned with customer service. 3.5/5 on dining room and restroom cleanliness. The San Clemente location is a bit cleaner and more customer forward although the location is smaller. Overall, this was our second trip to this chain and we'll go again at some point since we travel from OC to SD often. Happy hour is average, $6 wines from 3p-6p with okay selection and similar beer prices. Menu items are consistent in our experience. read more
