- TTammyOrange County •4 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoThis is a great restaurant. From the moment we walked in and were greeted with very kind friendly people to the awesome waiter, the delicious food and the beautiful view. We came when it was already dark and wish we would have come a bit earlier to see it during the day! My husband and I split the halibut and wasn’t sure when we first looked at it. It was in a lot of red sauce but the first bite was so so good and I’m so glad we got that fish! All the other meals looked great too. We came with a large group, needing two tables and they worked very hard to put us right together. I would definitely come again!More infoLas BrisasPrice: Expensive• Californian• Laguna Beach•4.3

- LLindaVIPOrange County •69 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe love Starfish! Having said that, the last time we were there the food, which usually is great, wasn’t. Tonight, they were BACK!!! Every dish and cocktail we ordered was over the top yummy!! The edamame was garlicky and spicy and fresh and super tasty. We also ordered the calamari, the Bah Mi sliders, the lettuce wraps, the Korean tacos, pot stickers and the satay beef skewers. Each dish was 8 thumbs up!!! (There were 4 of us). The place was super busy too but our server was spot on!More infoStarfish Laguna BeachPrice: Moderate• Contemporary Asian• Laguna Beach•4.8
- DDeborahVIPLos Angeles •49 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoThis was our second time eating lunch there. Service was friendly, efficient and timely. We had the fish taco special, the mussels in leek broth and the Parker house rolls. If you get nothing else, get the rolls! Crispy and buttery on the outside and doughy and soft inside. The fried fish in the tacos were crunchy and the sauce was flavorful and accompanied the fish well. The mussels were cooked just right - still soft and flavorful in a light, savory sauce. The butter cake was the epitome of decadence. Definitely recommend for lunch.More info230 Forest AvenuePrice: Moderate• Californian• Laguna Beach•4.9
