    We love this place! It is always consistent, the food is amazing, and the drinks are top-notch! Ambiance is nice too. Our server, Leslie, was very personable and fun. We only wish there was a location closer to us in San Clemente, but it won't stop us from coming back.

    Great food and service! Can get pricey but the happy hour is the best deal. Obviously due to inflation the portion sizes are noticeably smaller as the years go on. Still one of the best spots in Laguna Beach!
    Starfish Laguna BeachResponded on February 3, 2025
    Hi Remy, Thank you for dining with Starfish and for your kind words! A little secret—our portions are the same for lunch, Opium Hour, and dinner. We truly appreciate your support and look forward to welcoming you again soon! Warmly, Jenn

    We were not charged correctly. Fortunately, we caught the mistake but what if we hadn’t???
    Starfish Laguna BeachResponded on January 27, 2025
    Hi Daisy, I'm sorry to hear about this issue. I want to ensure that you were charged correctly. If a credit still needs to be issued, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me. This seems to have been an isolated mistake, as I haven’t encountered this happening before. I truly appreciate your understanding. Let me know if there’s anything else I can assist with. Best, Jenn
