Seafood
We’ve been in restaurants a long time – three generations, to be precise – and we love seafood. With seafood there’s so much to be passionate about – the freshness, the flavor, the variety, and the surprise.

To create the ultimate seafood experience, we traveled down the highways and byways. We pulled up a seat, put on bibs, and soaked up the seafood experience: The no-name dishes with unforgettable flavor, the fresh-caught oysters and clams piled high, the hand-lettered specials on ancient chalkboards, and the savory simmer of every combination of spices imaginable.

The pleasure of preparing and sharing seafood was simple and genuine, and it brought out the best in everyone. Often, we felt as if we’d been welcomed into somebody’s home.

That’s what King’s Fish House is all about — and we’ve tried to bring all of these ideas together into one single, spectacular place, filled with camaraderie and celebration, and the things we love best. Welcome to the House that Seafood Built!

    We had a great lunch but seems to be so much more expensive than the last time we were there, Maybe good for special occasions more than a weekly thing

    We had their delicious octopus, it was done right. I had their southern fried soft-shell crab with fried green tomato. The combo was great! My friend loved her lobster clambaked entree. We were happy with our food.

    We eat here often for years. Consistently good both HB and Pine Ave locations. We like to get a bunch of things and share… crab cakes, edamame, chilled shrimp, cedar plank salmon, blue cheese walnut salad. We enjoy a booth in the bar for seating location.

    When a restaurant and bar are not even busy and you have to wait 30 minutes to receive your two drinks it’s ridiculous. I understand trying to be efficient and make the entire bar areas drinks at once, however you should manage your time better and know who sat down first to go in order. Terrible service & attitude when asked if our drinks were coming.

    Six of us had a great dinner on a Saturday night. My family from New Zealand and NorCal, along with a friend from this area met to share an evening and we had a really nice time. We ordered many different and tasty items. The clam chowders were especially good. I had the salmon and enjoyed it so much. Can’t get better than their sourdough bread! Our waitress was attentive and very pleasant. Very noisy place, though. Overall a very successful outing.

    Celebrated a birthday on a Friday afternoon. We were seated earlier than our 12:30 reservation which was great. Nice fresh warm bread to start. We had 2 orders of grilled MahiMahi and 1 grilled BlueFin Tuna which were excellent.

    Fish Tacos are pretty good. At least one salad was missing. Took forever to get food and when it finally came it then took another took 20+ minutes to get crab crackers and forks. They really struggle with large groups and there seems to be enormous turnover in wait staff. Manager was apologetic though and gave us a discount.

    Great entrees: salmon with beet salad, and fish and chips with garden salad. Waitress was great till the bill came. Our guests’ clam chowder soup was on our bill so she took both bills back to fix. Their bill was corrected to add the soup. Our bill still showed the soup. We had to give it to her again! It literally took 20 minutes to get a corrected bill and then to pay and get a credit card receipt. Also, the noise level was higher than normal. Conversation was hard to do.

    Ordered 4 entrees which took excessive amount of time to receive. Two of the entrees, the Sea Bass and the Mahi Mahi were not only cold and overcooked, but they were not fresh and lacked flavor. The zucchini was also cold and a bit hard, needing more time cooked. Overall, for the value of the food, quality was far lacking.

    We have dined at King's Fish house many times. We always seem to end up getting the macademia crusted sand dabs which are always excellent. A couple of weeks ago, we brought some friends from out of town and one of them ordered the apetizer octopus whiche she said was execellent. So yesterday, I decided to order the octopus. It was overcooked and tough and chewy. At the end of the meal when the server who was excellent asked how our meal was, I told her about the octopus. Soon the manager came over to ask if she could get anything else for us such as a free dessert, we declined. They ended up taking the octopus off our bill. That is great customer service, and we will definitely keep coming back.

    I wouldn’t order their spicy tuna on crispy rice. It didn’t look appetizing and the rice was a huge wad of rice in comparison to the tuna. My friend ordered the sand dabs and said that she enjoyed them.

    King's has a lot of selection, but some of the choices are better than others. There are many different fish, which leads me to believe that most must be frozen in order to provide a large selection. The seasonal fish is just average. This is not the high end seafood house that some are seeking. Prices are moderate. Other selections are limited and recipes are a bit tired. The wine list is so-so. Just an average place that really should pick up its game.

    I saw the ice cream sandwich was caramel ice cream and sea salt on buttered and toasted brioche — not on cookies like normal ice cream sandwiches?! I had my doubts. But I ordered it. It was SO GOOD!!! Fantastic! The Sand Dabs were great too — Parmesan-Crusted to perfection. Brilliant work!

    We came for my wife’s 50 th birthday, to make a long story short besides the service she was sick all night long. She had the Surf and Turf. It was a very big disappointment because we have always loved Kings at Bella Terra. Not really sure what was going on that night but the whole restaurant was very slow for a weekend evening!
