   If you have a special occasion to celebrate or just want to impress that certain someone, the Water Grill is the place to go. You'll find fine dining here at its best. The seafood selection is vast, prepared perfectly and plated beautifully. The serving staff is professional and accommodating. You'll never be disappointed!

   The sea bass and the halibut were too dry probably over cooked.

   Some of the best seafood in OC. Exceptional quality and huge variety of oysters, very fresh and nicely presented.

   My first time at Water Grill- amazing experience overall. The oysters were outstanding, the halibut a bit dry and bland, the swordfish, blackened, was superb. Will go back again :)

   The Water Grill never disappoints. Great service. Fish prepared by people who know how to acquire the freshest fish, and then prepare it properly. I love this restaurant.

    The wine was delicious and the seafood was amazing. We had an awesome time celebrating my daughters engagement! The staff was very attentive and knowledgeable as our party had some gluten food allergies. And the dessert at the end was the topping of the evening. Thank you for making our celebration special!!

    I have been a few times before and it was delicious! but this visit I am not sure if it was because I came at weird time around 3:30pm or a big party but the service was very slow, the food was definitely not as good usual! my sushi had a bit of a weird taste though before it’s so delicious. my tuna tartare was wasn’t the same as before either. was sad with my visit this time :/

    Everything at Water Grill was A+. Will definitely return for another delicious dinner. Great food. Great service. Great atmosphere. Prices were pre-COVID, pre-inflation, unlike so many other restaurants that have increased prices with hefty split fees.

    Girls lunch. We stayed far too long, and the servers were so accommodating and professional. Should have charged us rent … but kept filling our water glasses and and asking if we needed anything. Great experience.

    We all loved this restaurant. The food is absolutely delicious. We had oysters fir appetizers and they were good! We had Seabass (fantastic), scallops were ok, lobster roll with butter super great, sushi, black cod and shrimp scampi were all good. Nothing special with the scampi and sushi. The black cod was really good!! There were six of us and the lowest dinner out the door was $90. This includes drinks and desserts. The desserts were really good especially the chocolate Grenache. All in all this place does not disappoint at all. If I went back I would do either the lobster roll or seabass.

    Very Disappointing! Our wait time for our 3:45 reservation was close to 15 minutes in an empty restaurant. Bread delivered immediately which was stale. Wine delivered fast and black cod entree delivered quickly but the kitchen should have taken the time to heat it properly as it was just warm and on the verge of cold.
