Went for the friends and family event and got the salmon with chipotle lime sauce with zucchini and sweet potato fries and it was very good! The sauce was very flavor and the salmon was well cooked. Will definitely be coming back.

We tried out this new place today and were pleasantly surprised at the many dishes, including plant based items. The price was quite reasonable, and everything we had was fresh and tasty. Customer service was excellent but the music was a tad too loud.

Ordered takeout and was pretty disappointed in my meals. Was excited to see 2 large pieces of grilled salmon until 8 realized they were about 1/3” each and very dry. The swai was a bit more moist but didn’t taste fresh. Coconut shrimp were good and still crispy. Grilled skewered shrimp were moist. Brussels sprouts were overcooked and too much butter. Brown rice was dry. Chipotle lime fries were very soggy but may have been the 15 min drive home.

Oh.my.goodness!!! This place is outstanding!! I got the Fried Catfish with their Kale Slaw it was absolutely amazing! The portions are good and the prices are reasonable. My family of 6 really enjoyed ourselves in this chill atmosphere. If we ever visit Cali again, this is our first stop!

First time there, and the service is so bad. The server Mancera taking the order she’s so rude. She didn’t give me a chance to get the orders and she’s like in a rush or something like she doesn’t want to do it. We ordered 2 fish & chip…and we asked her can we substitute fries to rice…instead of saying NO… she said YES..so when I look at the receipt she charging me 2.75 … I don’t really care about 2.75 but I thought sub is mean instead of fries I get the rice. But if she’s charging me for it..I could of leave it as is and still have the fries..and just get the rice as a side dish. Such a poor customer service. Never again go there. And the layout of the store are so bad.. inside doesn’t have that much table to sit and it small and stuffy.. but outside are so spaces and lots of table. What if on raining day or winter time who going to sit outside.

Loved the options available. Such a reasonable price. Try the vanilla cream soda.

Petite plates are good size and price. White Fish was great, perfectly cooked and tender but the brown rice had lots of dried rice bits in it, the kind you can’t chew 🙁 . I will be back but will choose a different base. Corn side was fine, but not as good as I expected because they don’t use fresh corn- canned or frozen.

My cousin and I had lunch today at the California Fish Grill Friends and Family luncheon. It’s a brand new restaurant opening in San Mateo, and offered a free lunch to come check them out. We made our reservations online and were greeted by a very nice host. We each had one entry with two sides and an appetizer and drink. There wasn’t a long wait for our food to be ready. I ordered the fish and chip, brussels sprouts, and fries; and my cousin ordered grilled salmon, asparagus, and kale slaw. We had the Calamari for our appetizer. Everything was absolutely delicious and fresh. The customer service was great fast and efficient and very welcoming. It was a bit noisy because of the promotional invitation for lunch, but the place was packed, and everyone seemed to be enjoying their meals. We can’t wait to go back there again and try other entrees on the menu.

1. No employees to take your order. The kiosk was a difficult to use causing a long line.

The ordering system is very bad.. it’s fine to order at the kiosk – but they dont give you order number, so when you go up to them and ask about your order they wont know unless you put down your phone number when ordering (I normally dont give out phone number as some of these businesses will sell your info out and you get all kinds of spam calls). The staff is also rude – not sure why, but I am guessing because its all self service so they expect they dont get much tips and so they can just do their bare minimum..
