    The food and service were excellent. I appreciated the phone call in advance to confirm our reservation for Valentine's as it allowed me to get an earlier reservation time. The only downside was that they ran out of the dessert we wanted. Great experience overall! We will be back.

    My husband and I have eaten at King’s Fish House multiple times. We also have brought family friends just to enjoy a great meal or celebrate something special. The location is great and close to home. Plenty of parking is available. With reservations we are seated on time and are even able to look for a preferred table to sit at. From the front desk to the host, servers , manager and chef everyone treats us with special service. The menu is made up daily with fresh fish from around the world. The food is fresh and delicious. Service is fantastic and everything we ask for is provided. We celebrated our wedding anniversary and Valentine’s Day at the restaurant and ordered dessert to go. We were given a generous serving for both of us. The manager even took our left over food and boxed it up to take home. The background music is low enough to hear and not too loud. The service and food is Always high quality.

    We have never been to this location. The Tustin location is great, so we decided to try the Brea location since it is closer to home. It’s a beautiful interior and a lot bigger than the Tustin one. Even seating outside which I would like to try during the summer. The food was delicious and possibly better. The servers were fantastic and very helpful. They played a prefect balance of always around but not overly interrupting. The noise was minimal when we first arrived but got louder as more customers were seated. Seems the noise level would be reasonable for a JBBQ place normally but loud if filled to the brim with people. We look forward to going back to this location.
