As casual dining its incredible, the salmon I had was better than I’ve ever made — with a smoker. Others in my party were as pleased with their selections.

Been here at least 25 times. Food is ALWAYS consistently good. Service gets a 4 STAR – they are 9/10 solid. Place is always clean, but with limited inside seating. I recommend the Giant Shrimp, Garlic Butter on the side. Amazing dish!

As every other California Fish Grill: great value for great price. I gave other CFG 5 stars, this one only 4 cause my favorite meal: Ahi tuna is not on the menu, and i was really hoping to eat that tonight. I took spokeye salmon.

I loved this place. Everything we ordered was great. I like that you get to choose an added flavor for things like Salmon and Sole. I don’t think some of the upgrades/costs make sense. Like a $4+ to upgrade an entree side to asparagus to only get 3 sticks. Or $3 upgrade for corn. That should probably be the full price of an extra side, not upgrade. It was also kind of odd picking up my food, because no employee said anything. They weren’t rude, just, completely silent when I’d ask or say something.

Came here on Monday night for dinner and it wasn’t too crowded. Lucked out and got a booth to myself. Ordered the Swai sith brown rice and extra zuchini. The staff was sweet and swift and had me in and out of there within 30 minutes.

We came here for some lunch, while exploring the plaza, and this spot is nice, but not the best we visited. It is a self-service spot, so it is less like a regular restaurant. The food is okay, everything is pretty fresh, and their rice is delicious, but overall its quite average. There were people with loud children inside, and it made the experience less satisfying.

Their Fish and Chips are one of the best I have tried so far. We also ordered the Combo Fish + Calamari to try, which was also delicious . Highly recommended if you are craving for Fish and chips.

Good lace to get that fish and chip fix. Just the right about of crunch in each bite. Food came out promptly and hot off the grill, came during lunch time on a Saturday.

I order fish and chips. The order took 13 minutes to come out even tho there were less than 10 customers in the restaurant. When I went to pick up the order the associate didn’t even look at me. When I asked for lemon slices he literally just threw them on my tray. I was shocked. I really really wanted tartar sauce with my fish but I was so scared by his behavior that I didn’t even ask. But seriously do you have to when you order fish and chips. They used to have all condiments self serve but after the pandemic that changed but they could easily have them in small containers on a cold table. This probably helps with wastage but not at the expense of bad service. You even have to go beg for ketchup to eat with your fries. The fish was good and hot but fries were stale in comparison. They’ve really dropped their standards.

I really liked the quality of the food here and the quick service. I hated that to-go orders are packaged with all the items together. My sweet potato fries were beneath my tacos and the grilled zucchini. They were so soggy. I know they may want to save on containers, but I do not want mushy soggy fries. Also, if you have dietary restrictions and need changes made, then check your receipt prior to leaving and ensure that it states to leave certain items off. I was only able to eat one of my tacos due to this.
