Ordered two salmon dinners to go for $45, including tip. Took a few bites and noticed they were very dry and chewy. Flipped the salmon and they were all completely burnt on the other side! The cook tried to cover up the mistake by flipping it over and smothering it with sauce. The rice was way overcooked and dry too! I was so upset because I worked through a rough 16.5 hour shift that night without any food!

This location is located inside a shopping center area where there are variety of food to choose from. The parking at this California fish grill is easy to access at night.

Ahi poke appetizer was different from the one I had before. Maybe the different locations have a different spin on it? Regardless, this one was flavorful and tasty. My white fish was a little overcooked but still good. Didn’t care too much for the ahi, but my coworker loved it. Sea bass had too much burnt skin on one side.

The food is wonderful, but, the service is sketchy. Seems to be staff turnover so you can’t be sure. Sometime the wait on line can be long and the people at the counter don’t seem to know what they’re doing. Other times it’s fine. Sometimes tables are dirty, sometimes not. But food is always wonderful and prices are reasonable.

The California Fish Grill is a great fish house in Lake Forest. The food is tasty and the portions are generous for a good price. It can get busy on weekend evenings, but they seem to handle it well.
