Boyfriend's order: 3-4 tacos depending on hunger level - 1 cajun fish + 2-3 cajun shrimp - Prefers cajun shrimp over breaded shrimp - Prefers corn tortilla (the default) over flour tortilla I ordered: - Everything protein bowl w/ mixed greens and no beans. 310 cal and 43 grams of protein. Cajun shrimp, salmon, swai and grilled chicken. A good source of protein but sort of uninspired in terms of flavor. Probably would not order again. - Clam Chowder w/o oyster crackers. It's quite a large portion, split with boyfriend, 440 calories, 11g protein. Condiments: They got rid of the salsa bar after COVID, you need to request your own condiments, options are: - Tomato salsa - Tomatillo salsa - Tartar sauce - Lemon slices - Cilantro - Ketchup - Malt Vinegar - Soy sauce Ordered in the app and the ETA was accurate. If you download the app, you'll receive an offer for a free everything bowl with purchase of a drink. read more

California Fish Grill - Everything Protein Bowl w/ Mixed Greens - Fish & Chips Near Me - Daly City, California

I haven't had CFG in a while and I finally went back. There's a lot more on the menu! I am pleased to say that they even had chicken and lobster now! The price of the food is still AFFORDABLE or in other words manageable with this economy getting expensive! Thank you CFG! I have read some reviews and I am a bit disappointed with their reviews! lol where can you find a bowl for 12 bucks with 40+ protein grams in it! This protein craze is RIDICULOUS, if you don't work out! lol Calories are Calories! I lost 100 pounds eating here when it first opened! The fish and salads have helped me! But besides that! The staff as usual has their smiles! Helping out and most of all ... if you have an issue with the dish... talk to the staff! They are always happy to help! My Branzino was a bit over cooked and I went up to the lady with a piercing ... POLITELY.... Told her that it was a bit overcooked ! She apologized and remade the dish and she was so nice ... this was a busy lunch time as well... ! They didn't have a smirk or attitude about it and made a great Branzino with garlic butter and Cajun on my salad bed! My kids enjoyed their awesome as usual Fish and (Chips) Dynamite Fries! And we splurge a bit on their lobster roll and lobster nachos (great price) that was soooo good! It was quite interesting that another person tried to talk trash about the establishment when this happened! With a bit of a discussion , I had pointed out that this is a great place because of AFFORDABILITY, FRESHNESS, CLEANLINESS, and be able to talk and get a good staff to be able to listen to customers is an awesome place to get fish in Daly City. We all live in a fast environment ! But we got to slow down a bit, look at our environment at the present and observe what's going on! Understand who is working and serving us and help establishments and their workers to help us out! These places are rare to come by when it's Affordable and Fresh .... Man, you'll pay for a 9 dollar Starbucks drink and think the prices here are expensive ! GTFOH! lol read more

Ordered the Shrimp & Avocado Caesar Salad and applied the "FREE SHRIMP" Mediterranean promotion. Instead, I got basically a bowl of lettuce with a tiny piece of salmon. The receipt even says "Sub Petite Salmon" even though I never asked to replace shrimp with salmon. What made it worse was the staff's reaction -- they just told me this was "normal" and didn't try to help at all. Paid almost $17 for something completely different from what was advertised. Very disappointing experience. read more

First time here. The place was spacious. There were quite a few people & I had to wait in line. You could order with the person at the counter or use the touchscreen. After you order, they give you a number. You can either wait at the counter by the right where they put your meal together or they will call your name. When I got our food, I was amazed on the quantity! It was a lot of food. The fried fish was really good. The coleslaw was good as well. I would come back. read more

First time here for lunch and I was impressed. The portions were huge and delicious! When you step into the restaurant, you can either find a table or go straight to the front to order. After ordering, you need to wait for your food. It would be great if they had staff bring orders to the table for dine-in customers or a calling system so you know when your order is ready. Unfortunately, they didn't have either, so we waited near the front while our friend stayed at the table. Each item we ordered was tasty and the portions were big enough for two people. I ordered the grilled shrimp and avocado caesar salad, which I couldn't finish, so I packed half for dinner. The place is simple but clean, with plenty of tables. There are parking spaces in the lot, so parking isn't an issue. I will definitely come back to try other dishes on their menu. read more

This fish grill is okay overall. The fish can be a bit dry at times, so it's a little hit or miss depending on the order. I've also had a few takeout orders where items were missing--most notably the clam chowder, which has happened more than once. On the plus side, the staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the inside has plenty of seating. The tables are clean and the space is comfortable if you're dining in. read more

One of my food friends told me about CA Fish Grill's new lobster roll plate $28 a few weeks ago. I finally had a chance to try it tonight. It comes with two little slider sized lobster rolls and a side. My pick for the side was tomato and feta instead of french fries. The lobster rolls weren't dressed and came with mostly claw and knuckle lobster meat. The buns were lightly toasted with a hint of butter. Overall, pretty good as it comes with a little cup of butter dip. If you ask, they will give you wedges of lemon or salsa. Service was fast tonight on a Wednesday night at 8pm. Cleaner also, there was one employee actively clearing tables. He also asked if I needed help when I order at the kiosk. That never happened before. Good job crew at CA Fish Grill. read more

Each item is so fresh and with amazing flavor! It was my first time coming here and I really love the taste of the coconut fired shrimp it comes with a sweet and spicy sauce. The asparagus is made with lemon pepper sauce and it's perfect! The shrimp tacos have a great paring with the red onions and red cabbage. The fish is incredibly fresh! It does take a bit to get your food depending on how busy they are but I would 100% recommend getting food from here. The plates are also so beautiful! read more

OMG! How come I've never eaten here?! Came here for the first time a couple of nights ago and LOVED it. The food is fresh and the prices reasonable. What's not to love? You order at the kiosk or with a real person and then they call out your name for pick up but everyone seems to sit at the counter to wait. Hahahah I had: Cajun shrimp tacos 4/5: The cajun shrimp had just a bit of kick and the relish balanced it out well. You get to choose 2 sides so I went with french fries (come on, you can't expect me to be sooooo healthy) and I upgraded (.99) for a Caesar salad. The tacos were 5/5, but the fries were a bit soggy. My bad tho. Next time I'll order in person and ask for extra crispy fries. Don't waste your money on the Caesar salad. The lettuce was wilted and it was covered with a layer of smashed croutons. Friend had a swai fish over rice which she said she always enjoys. I do want to go back and try the fish and chips tho! Ambiance is pretty chill. They do walk by a lot to make sure everything is okay which once is good but you don't really have to keep checking! I appreciate the thought tho! read more

I love California Fish grill. Very delicious and fast. I don't come to this location often. My friend and I decided to meet up here and have lunch. The places wasn't super packed. They were busy but not to busy. Welcome atmosphere. Although, there is room for improvement. My friend had ordered avocado and garlic bread. First, the staff forgot the garlic bread so I had to walk up and ask for it, second they only gave us one set of utensils when there's two of us and there's two plates. And lastly, they forgot to add the avocado (which we totally did not notice until after the meal was done, unfortunately). The food was absolutely delicious and fresh definitely would come back again. Also, thank you, Victor for taking care of our dirty dishes and removing it from our table read more

I've been to California Fish Grill before its been a go to especially during Lent. The service this evening was great we had two individuals check in on us, one being the restaurant manager. We had just gotten there before the dinner rush, so we were able to order our food and find a table. I ordered the Clam Chowder, Parmesan Garlic Bread and the Sea Bass (Branzino) with Garlic Butter. The Clam Chowder hit the spot on a rainy night as I would dip the Parmesan Garlic Bread and on top of that finished the Grilled Branzino with Garlic Butter. Until next time, Enjoy! read more

I was here over a year ago, i thought i would come back, but thinking about it,the food was very good,but greasy. If you love greasy fatty foods, you would love it. But with that said customer service was amazing, the restaurant was clean, lots of places to sit down and enjoy ur food. I really wanted to give it a second chance,but there's other restaurants i want to try out and with food being expensive.It's not worth coming back if they're gonna cook greasy food. But lol if you enjoy that kind of food will this is the place for you. lol I love that you can get a refill of soda and i love that they had my favorite root beer.Customer service was amazing! My cousin said the bathroom was very clean. Enjoy the pictures i took and sorry for the shortest review. LOL Thanks for reading! ~Lizzie ~ read more

Came here again after a couple of years. Ordered my standard fish & chips with zucchini to go. Once again, everything was in the same box. I asked them to separate it because the fries were soggy. I feel like they just put the zucchini in a cup, and the same fries in a separate box. When I finally got home, the fries had no crisp at all. I guess they will never learn. Plus, the price has gone up a few dollars from about 1.5 years ago, and the quality isn't quite the same either. $15 for a 3pc is still decent compared to other places though. But really, please train your staff on to go orders. My 2 orders each had the wet zucchini on the bottom, with the fries on top of that, and the fish on top. Very disappointing. read more

Even though it's called California Fish Grill, there's more than just fish on the menu. They claim to use 100% sustainable seafood (impressive!) and their website lists the catch methods & locations. I've been wanting to try this seafood spot for a while so we decided to stop by for lunch while in Serramonte. There wasn't a long line since we came around opening time but the dining room started to fill up later on. Order at the kiosk or register, find a booth or table, and pick up your order once your name is called. You can also opt to receive a text when your food is ready for pickup. Our order: New England Clam Chowder ($7.99): +Solid chowder: Not too thick or thin, and not too bland or salty +Filled with a good amount of diced clams and potatoes +Complimentary oyster crackers added crunchy to the creamy chowder. Salmon & Swai Combo w/1 sauce and 2 sides ($15.75): +Swai was so silky and melted in my mouth! One of the best cooked fish I've had in recent memory. +White rice was perfectly cooked. -Salmon was dry & fishy. -Garlic butter could use more garlic and seasonings. -Tomatoes were fresh in the Seasoned Tomato & Feta, but this side was bland and only had a few crumbles of feta (looked nothing like the picture). Shrimp Trio ($17.75): +Coconut Shrimp (2) were crunchy on the outside and plump on the inside. +Giant Shrimp (2) were plump and juicy. +French fries were hot, crunchy, and well-seasoned. +Kaleslaw was crunchy, not overdressed, and refreshing. +Sweet Chili Glaze was sooo good! It tasted great with all of the fish & shrimp. -Shrimp Skewer had 10 tiny shrimp and were overcooked. -Garlic butter could use more garlic and seasonings. Side notes: 1.) Condiments, napkins, utensils, and water cups available at the registers. 2.) Plenty of indoor & outdoor seating 3.) Free parking in Serramonte parking lot *Verdict: If I was in Serramonte, I'd definitely return to try more of their menu! read more

I had a pick up order for the battered fish tacos, one of my go to meal I get here. The fish tacos did not have cabbage just 5 diced tomatoes and a dot of cream sauce unbelievable. I never experienced this from Fish and Grill . Very skimpy fish not good quality. read more

I was in conflict with how i would review this place because if it was only for the food I would've gave a five stars for taste, but I feel like there was two major held backs which the first one of them being there was no ice so we had to take both of our fountain drinks warm which is never fun, and the second one of them is that I had an add+ of avocado on my meal, which they charged almost 2 dollars for it just to give me less than what one slice of avocado would be other than that, the taste was great didn't really interact with the staff because I ordered through the kiosk but the place overall feels nice. It's quiet and well illuminated, and the food didn't take too long to get to our table too. read more

I love CA fish grill. Food is freshly made, tons of seafood options and tastes delicious. The only real downside is it can be pricey. ALSO the parmesan green beans are gone, when did this happen?! I like being able to order online for pick up. This place can get busy! I have not eaten for dine-in in a while but there are always people eating here. When I eat here I feel like I'm having a nutritious meal. The last meal I ordered was the avocado caesar salad. I also ordered a skewer of shrimp for protein. Yum, would recommend! read more

I opted to stop here for a quick bite and was I thrilled after the first bite! I ordered fish and chips with sweet potato fries. I'd say this has been the best I've had in a very long time! Firstly, the fish arrived fresh out of the fryer. Secondly, it was seasoned fantastically! So, delicious!! Parking was easy and the location is the outside of the main mall. One word, "yum!" The staff from order to pick up were friendly. They were kind enough to check on us as well. Bravo!! read more

Wish I had listened to the bad reviews about this place. I ordered the fish and chips. My fries were soggy, the fish was soggy. I asked for lemons, tartar sauce and vinegar. Vinegar was missing after I asked for it TWICE. The lemons were bruised and browning and the tartar sauce had a sludge like consistency that seemed expired. I didn't feel comfortable eating my food as nothing tasted right and the tartar sauce seemed to be past its expiration date or wasn't refrigerated which is a huge red flag. I didn't think it was possible to make even french fries taste bad! Nothing tasted right or normal, it tasted like it wasn't even food, maybe cat food or a missing human! And the portions are bad, I had two sides of fries it looks like one. Genuine waste of money. read more

As somewhat embarrassing as it may be, I have to admit I don't even want to know how times I passed by this California Fish Grill without realizing that it's the same California Fish Grill in Irvine that sat in my list of bookmarks for years. YEARS. Less so because of any failure to make the connection and much more so because I could've started coming here a whole lot earlier! Compared to their location I visited in Irvine (the one on Barranca and Culver, FWIW), just about everything, as you'd certainly expect, feels the same, whether it be the decor, the vibes, or, most importantly, the menu. From their selection of starters, salads, sides, and tacos to their sandwiches, seafood plates, bowls, and fried seafood baskets, all of the different options available looked just as good. Also, in addition to a few limited time offerings, I was impressed to see that they also had a note about having to remove their mahi mahi due to currently being unable to sustainably source it. Unfortunate since I wanted to try it, but I was happier to see some level of corporate consciousness. -- SALMON & SWAI COMBO Topped with Garlic Butter Sauce & Cajun Sauce, Diced Rosemary Zucchini, and Fries...$15.50 Although I wish each fillet had been larger, this was great! The salmon was as delicious as I had hoped and the swai was surprisingly solid - tender and flavorful. I also liked that neither sauce was overpowering and that the fries and zucchini were as tasty as I remember! -- BATTERED FISH & BATTERED SHRIMP with Kaleslaw and Fries...$13.50 The pieces of fish were bigger the first time I had this, but the taste of them, as well as the shrimp, was still pretty good. The batter on each was crispy and not overly thick while both the shrimp and fish were very moist. Also, the kaleslaw was fine, but the zucchini was better. -- NEW ENGLAND CLAM CHOWDER...$7.99 This may not be the best clam chowder out there, but it was more than enough to satisfy my craving. The consistency was a little thinner than I would've liked, but this actually had a fair amount of clams in it and, most significantly, it didn't taste ridiculously salty. -- AHI POKE BOWL...$16.50 To be honest, I was a little skeptical of this, but, aside from the cilantro sprinkled on top, this actually turned out to be pretty good! The tuna was fresh, the poke sauce had just a slight kick to it, the rice wasn't overcooked, and the cilantro cream sauce was surprisingly flavorful. Considering how much I've enjoyed every trip I've made to California Fish Grill, it's safe to say I've become quite the fan. Between their fast-casual nature and how the menu prices are more than fair, this place is so much more approachable than most seafood restaurants. Plus, now that I know they're here, it's a whole lot easier to make the drive down to Daly City rather than having to wait until the next time I'm in SoCal! FOUR AND A HALF STARS rounded down for now. read more

While I shopping in the Serramonte Mall area, my friend was feeling hungry so he wanted to go to the nearest restaurant we could find, which happened to be California Fish Grill. I came in with low expectations-- I mean I've seen this fast-casual chain at a couple locations, and I'm not the biggest fan of fish, so how good could it be?? But wow, I think I'm hooked after this visit, the shrimp skewers were banging! It had a nice smoky flavor and it was so juicy. I ordered three shrimp skewers, which was surprisingly more than enough to share between two people, in order to try the three sauces. The sauces were all amazing too. My favorite was Cajun, followed closely by garlic butter, then miso. Dipping the fries (which we chose as a side along with our entree) in the sauces just took it to another level. Happy to report even this is a fast-casual chain, they definitely don't compromise on the quality. read more

Located in shopping area of Sephora and Nordstrom rack. Parking is limited. You can park across target and walk over. Easy self ordering kiosks. I ordered fish tacos with kale salad. Fish taco - crispy, golden-battered fish that was flaky and tender on the inside -- not overly greasy, which is always a plus. The kale salad - fresh crunch, balanced with a zesty lime crema that tied everything together beautifully. Wait time was about 20 mins. Clean seating area with outside seating too.

I love CA Fish Grill. I order the grilled plate with swai, cauliflower rice, and a side of rosemary zucchini all drizzled in creamy garlic butter sauce. The soda fountain has great options but my go-to is the pineapple cream soda. Yum! There are two kiosks at the register which makes ordering fast and easy. It does take some time before the food is ready, about 15-18mins. While the food tastes delicious, the temp it's served at could use some work. Each time I come here for a grilled plate, it's served at room temp to slightly above room temp. I have to mention how the Foster City location serves their plates hot because I was surprised when I realized other locations were doing things differently. Overall, my experiences here haven't been terrible but having hot meals served would def boost the quality of this location read more

Absolutely unacceptable. First and last order. The salad literally had a full cabbage core thrown in -- not chopped, not trimmed, just the hard center. Hopefully it was at least washed. The fish was burnt, dry, and paper-thin, completely overcooked and tasteless. Portion quality is terrible, presentation is careless, and this shows zero respect for the customer. $60 completely wasted -- straight into the trash. This was honestly disgusting.

First time here. Never walked in since it never looks busy. I should have figured it's busy since there's never any parking available. When you walk in, turn left and get in the line. There's a walk way from the door to the front of the order line. I watched every single person who tried to bypass the line go to the back of the line. You order through the kiosk screen, which is not organized at all in the same way as the menu posted...which is also not set up the same way as the website. After figuring out how to order what we wanted to order, the food came out fairly quickly. The fish and shrimp were crispy and fried. It had to be eaten at the restaurant because it would not have made it home and still been that crispy. Overall, would come back here again. read more

I usually love California fish grill, but my recent visit to the Serramonte center location was quite frustrating. Not only was there a long wait time when the restaurant wasn't even packed, the portion sizes left much to be desired. Typically, I go for two different sides for my salmon and swai plate (zucchini and rice or zucchini and Brussels sprouts) but this time, I opted for two orders of zucchini. Imagine my surprise when I go to pick up my plate and it looks I'm completely missing a side. Not sure if portion sizes have become smaller or if picking two of the same side was a mistake. I thought my plate would be at least full, but it wasn't. I don't think the plate I had was worth ~$15, so I am a bit disappointed. read more

We ordered the classic fish and chips to go, got the 2-piece and 3-piece meals, which came with fries and a kale salad. Service was friendly and quick, which I appreciated. The fish was swai, but unfortunately it tasted and looked like it had been fried in old oil. The coating wasn't golden and came out over-fried, which made it less enjoyable. It feels like the quality has gone down compared to when they first opened. It used to be much better, and the place was definitely busier back then. Overall, just okay. read more
