The poke salad came with a generous amount of vegetables, I ended up finishing the tuna poke and taking home half of the salad. The poke was fresh and well seasoned! The wait was a little long on the weekend, it took roughly 40 minutes to get our food. Street parking is available, and it's around a 15-20 minute walk to the beach!

We tried the Shrimp California Roll, poke nachos, french fries, and raw oysters. The oysters were easily the highlight. They were fresh, flavorful, and definitely the best thing we ordered! The poke nachos were tasty, and the fries were good as well. The Shrimp California Roll was just okay for me because there was way too much rice, which overpowered the rest of the roll. Overall, good food with some definite standouts. I'd come back, especially for those oysters!

To thank the very kind owner who loves the Dana point community for generations, and visitors, first time equally as much. We wanted to get their delicious clam chowder, and wonderful fried fish, on today, their final day. The service was always excellent. The chill Dana Point Harbor, was always relaxing, nurturing, all year. Thank you, once again, and blessings for all the decades of wonderful deliciously fresh seafood, an extremely affordable price as well. - That you provided all your customers. Hopefully that beautiful large realistic looking swordfish that's been hanging on the restaurant wall ever since I was 10 years old - Will find a wonderful new home! oh, and that huge shark! (this place has personality, and heart, and will be missed dearly)

Let me tell you- the unplanned is always the best! I had been wanting to try it but knowing the other locations had hard parking, and man oh man, one of my favorite meals and so well priced! 1. Red snapper with veggies and mushrooms. Wow! The fish was so full of flavor even before the sauce, well portioned, well priced. And the veggies were filling and cooked to perfection! 2. Fish and chips - have been on a mission to find good fish and chips- the fish was huge, tasty and meaty! Just a bit oily, but still YUMMY! Service: Corrina seriously is the reason I am writing this review! As I was frustrated with the parking situation by the harbor and just tired, she turned around my mood! She was so passionate and joyful about what she does and the food she serves! And she gave us the lowdown on the whole construction situation in Dana point! Thank you for your amazing service!!! Lastly: the inside is so pretty, inviting, and spread out and clean! Def will be back!! Thank you!

If your looking for Mexican seafood style this is the place. We tried the fried ahi tacos shrimp cocktail, and the shrimp ceviche. Each was was filled with flavor and fresh. We like it hot so we liberally added the Tapatio. Our kids kept it simple with kids menu items that are also available (chicken nuggets and burrito). The ambiance for lunch was a clean location with large TVs but space for small and large groups. The service was quick and helpful, our server Marlena was great providing insight to favored dishes.

Took the train from Santa Ana to San Clemente and stopped here for lunch. Unfortunately,…read moreFisherman's was just OK for me. I started with a Minchilada, which unfortunately didn't have much flavor. The rim was coated in more of a Cajun-style/ old bay seasoning rather than the traditional Southern California Tajín and lime. For my meal, I ordered the poke bowl. The tuna was decent, and I actually liked the sauce that came on the side to pour over it. However, the rice was a big miss, it was very stiff, cold, and tasted like it had been sitting for a while. The bowl also could have used a few more wonton chips. The location itself is cute and makes for a nice place to sit and have a meal, especially if you're coming into San Clemente by train. I just wouldn't come here with particularly high expectations for the food. The service was good and brought everything out in timely manner.

For our main, i had the scallops and my hubby ordered the seared mahi mahi and both were delicious! We emptied our plate we later found out from Carlos that Chef used to work at Montage Hotel. Overall we enjoyed our dining experience and would definitely come back.

I am an oyster girl so I knew what I wanted, which was something not too creamy. Usually this time of year they are but I asked anyway. The server made a suggestion and went off to place the order. He came back and let me know that the oyster shucker suggested a different one that was not creamy at all. I really appreciated that and was very happy with the oyster selection. We did a lot of small plates for happy hour. They were very small plates and still relatively high prices. We felt like all the dishes were missing seasoning. We also had cocktails that were fine but not exceptional. Overall it was an enjoyable experience but not mind blowing.

He also was sweet enough to bring our daughter a blanket to make her comfy. It gets a little chilli outside on the patio so they offer nice, warm blankets. By far the best service I have ever had! I didn't take photos of everything, but we loved every dish we had. We ordered the mushroom plate as an appetizer, definitely an acquired taste. If you're not a mushroom person, I don't suggest it lol. We also had the octopus plate to share, and it was amazing!!!! Jiyan explained how it is prepared and he had us at, "it's not chewy," because who knew octopus wasn't supposed to be chewy lmao! The oysters were our favorite, you can never go wrong with some raw, clean oysters! The pasta and branzino were so perfectly prepared as well. Beautiful presentation and just the right amount of heavy and light. Ube Sansrival was the perfect way to finish the course, found out the chef is a Filipina!!! Makes sense why everything was so delicious HIGHLY RECOMMENDDDDDD THIS PLACE!!! Biggg shout out to Jiyan and the chef!!!!

We got seated immediately but it was right next to the hostess stand.. which felt like the lobby of the restaurant. Honestly felt like the reject zone. Especially when the pictures in Yelp of the interior looked so nice and had a great view. We had no view. The server asked if we wanted sparkling or still water, I got sparkling and he got still. Turns out they were $8 each.. had I known that, I prob would have gotten an actual drink. The bread was complimentary and that was great, especially since our toddler loved the sun dried tomato tapenade. He also got the kids Mac and cheese, I got lobster risotto, & husband got the seafood orecchiette. Mac and cheese was just average, risotto was a little salty and a bit undercooked. Seafood orecchiette was tasty but nothing I'd crave again. Overall just an okay experience. When we got the check, noticed a 20% service charge and wasn't that happy about it since we only had 3 people, the food was just alright, and we had to sit in the weird lobby-like area of the restaurant. Would only ever come back for convenience, nothing else.

I knew I needed some seafood if I am this close to the ocean, so I ordered the a bowl of their clam chowder and the Northern halibut with coleslaw. The halibut and coleslaw were the stars of the show. The halibut was cooked perfectly with a nice crisp on the outside and a soft, delightfully flaky inside. They then pair it with a house made lemon butter sauce which was truly next level. I wish I could've bottled it to have for later. lol. The coleslaw was light and delicious. It stood strong on its own, though it paired so well with the halibut and the lemon butter sauce I would consider it as a personal must with therir halibut. The service was absolutely amazing. My server was super kind, attentive, and had friendly banter. They kitchen is open and you can see everything being prepared which was super cool. It is evident they take their craft and guest experience very seriously. I hope to have a reason to be back in the area and enjoy another trip to Coastal Kitchen.

We were driving the coast along PCH on a very busy and hot Saturday and were craving Lobster Rolls…read more I had this spot bookmarked years ago and the reviews still looked promising. It's a couple of miles inland in Laguna Niguel located in a strip mall. There are a few tables out front for patio seating and indoor seating as well. We were greeted as we walked in and given an overview of the menu. We chose the Lobster Roll which comes with a choice of two sides. We chose Blue Cheese Cole Slaw and a drink. The fountain machine was broken, so cans only. Being the only ones there, the food arrived fairly fast. The first bite of the coleslaw was pretty bad. It was definitely not freshly made. The most amazing part of the Lobster Roll was how perfectly toasted and tasty the bun was. There was a decent amount of lobster and it tasted fresh and was cooked pretty good. Customer service was great. I just can't get over how bad that coleslaw was. Overall, it was not worth driving out of our way for.
