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.

    Walking into the restaurant it is clean and has a good curb appeal. I ordered the royal flush cocktail. It was nothing but ice and watered down. We ordered a dozen oysters platter, which was exceptional. It was a great way to showcase 2 oysters from different regions. I ordered the Kings combo platter for my entree. This was very subpar. It came with four small fried scallops, which had no flavor and were not crispy. One piece of beer battered fish, but the batter was raw in the middle and the fish had no flavor. It definitely needed to be fried longer. There were three butterflied fried shrimp. These were very tasty and actually had some salt and a good bite and crispy. The french fries were also not very crispy and sort of tasted like they had been sitting in the back for a while. Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant as it was very pricey. And not worth the cost.

    Love the spicy seafood chowder! The clam linguine needed a lot more garlic but still pretty good. Cioppino with Dungeness crab was almost perfect other than the fact that the shrimp was not deveined.

    Great cocktail (whiskey something on the menu. Very tasty). mediocre food. Scallops were unimpressive Seabass unimpressive. The crabcakes were absolutely amazing. I wish we had ordered more of those. wonderful service, the waiter was so kind and very attentive even though he appeared to be the only one staff he did an amazing job
