About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
Established in 2000, King’s Fish House is San Diego’s choice for seafood. Located in Mission Valley on Camino De La Reina, King’s Fish House features a large selection of fresh oysters, seasonal catches, sushi and live shellfish, including lobster and crab, on a menu that changes daily.

We’ve been in restaurants a little while – three generations, to be precise. A long time ago, we embarked on a road trip in search of the ultimate seafood experience. We traveled down highways and byways, 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.

Welcome to the House that Seafood Built.

Come gather with us, celebrate, relax and enjoy a seafood dining experience of high quality, comfort, service and value.

    King's Fish House is a great restaurant that offers a wide variety of seafood dishes. My favorites include the calamari and the Parmesan-crusted sand Dabs. The calamari is crispy and cooked just right, served with two sauces: a spicy mayo-type sauce and a sweet and sour sauce, both of which complimented the calamari well. The Parmesan-crusted sand Dabs was amazing! It was crusted perfectly and the sauce on it was deliciously paired with it. I chose the mashed potatoes and the mac & cheese as the two sides and I am glad I did. The mac & cheese is sprinkled with bread crumbs and the mashed potatoes were super creamy. We enjoyed the delicious food and the friendly, attentive service at King's Fish house and I would highly recommend dining here.
