   I go to the KFHs in Orange County all of the time, so was surprised to be asked to leave for hanging out after dinner too long with friends we haven’t seen in a while. It was 8:50 PM with open tables around and obviously well after their rush. Some dude came over afraid to ask outright until I asked him if he wanted us to leave. We spent a lot and left a great tip, but this guy was on a mission. Totally mediocre experience for such a prominent seafood joint, but this is reflective of service post-COVID. We won’t be back to this place.

    Delicious sea food and energetic vibe. The oysters were delicious but there was just one odd oyster bite I took that tasted like poo, not sure if it was one of the toppings or just a bad oyster but I followed it up with another that was delicious again so I give it a pass! Chilean sea bass was smooth a buttery. Mashed potatoes were good. Asparagus was a bit salty.

    The calamari portions were extremely small and we did say something to management and they charged us for another platter. If we knew that we wouldn’t have ordered another one but manager said they weighed it but 2nd one was bigger than first order. Bread and drinks were excellent but trout fish was burned rest of dishes were very good.

    Everything was excellent, except the freeway noise. I reflected a low ambiance score due to the freeway noise. Our conversations were lacking because we couldn't hear each other over the traffic. The noise needs to be diminished by some noise barriers. Other than the noise, it was terrific.

    Really solid dining experience. Their seafood specialties are great and though my linguini lacked lots of flavor, the presentation was good and the seafood tasted fresh. My friends liked their food as well.

    Service was good but ordered the sea bass tacos and didn’t get much fish in taco and the chips were stale. My husbands fish was literally a piece of fish on the plate with no herbs or garnishment. So rated food lower this time. Usually food is good but disappointed with what we ordered for this experience.

    Meal was good. Calamari was not very flavorful but it was fine. Miso cod and grilled king salmon were good. Vegetables were good. Spinach was full of garlic so be aware. Place was busy and waiter was distracted. Missed the salad orders and then final bill double charged for some items. Mostly an enjoyable evening.

    We have been there many times and have never had a bad waitperson. All have been knowledgeable about the menu, friendly and very good. We like the fact that after our meal is served, the waitperson only comes to our table to see how things are going with the food and then leaves us alone. The food is always fresh and delicious.

    Ordered 2 salads and iced tea and diet coke. $60!!! One salad the Southwestern was well presented and tasty however the Louis salad was terrible. A column of raw onion next to a column of tomato, then celery, carrots and cucumber. Topped by maybe 3 shrimp, half with shells left on, cut into thirds. All sitting on a thin bed of white iceberg lettuce. So disappointing. Fish Market Del Mar knows how to do this right!

    Oysters were top notch. Server was Daniel who is the best I have dined with in quite some time. Energetic, knowledgeable, friendly, professional and just downright solid. King albacore roll was okay and was my reason for dropping to 4. Yellowfin carpaccio great value and delicious. Halibut excellent. Clams linguine excellent. Grilled shrimp excellent. Bread is the best sourdough I have had in a while.

    Food was good but not the best ever. The fish was a little over cooked. But the sides were good. I would recommend it to someone looking for dinner.
