    Barramundi
    Eric W.

    We ordered the barramundi, Atlantic salmon, and giant shrimp. The fish was nicely seasoned, and the shrimp had good flavor as well. However, the sides really brought the experience down. The rice that came with our meals was undercooked and had a hard texture, which made it difficult to enjoy with the fish. It felt like something that should've been caught before serving. Overall, the seafood itself was good, but the execution on the sides is disappointed.

    Lobster Roll Combo (Drink not included)
    Darlene D.

    Favorite place to have fish and chips in the area! So crispy and delicious. The brussel sprout side is also super tasty. Had the lobster roll for the first time and it was decent-- the bread was toasty but in general, it was a bit bland. The service is always really good. Very welcoming and attentive staff!

    Shrimp tacos
    Ryan F.

    I'm sooooo not a sea food person so what do I know. I'm a fat Mexican who loves his tacos. Well I had these shrimp tacos, and the sauce was tasty with some lemon. Its not my goto style of cuisine but ehhhh I'd eat here again.

    Kiosk
    Benedict P.

    I ate at the Anaheim location for the first-time and it was so delicious! So, I researched one closer to my area and I found Rosemead!!! Omgggg! this place always hits the spot if you're looking for a place serving Fresh & Delicious Seafood! We ordered the Lobster Roll and it tasted good but we might not get it again just cause we might want to try something new in the menu. We also ordered the Fish & Chips and that is always a Banger! 10/10 for that crispy and soft fish and chips. It tastes so fresh when you take that first to last bite of that fish. Highly recommend Fish & Chips. The service here is great and the chefs made our food so quick it didn't take more than 10mins unlike other places out there. The ambiance was nice and spacious compared to our first experience in Anaheim where the restaurant was too small. But highly recommend you try this place out!!!

    Wild Ahi Tunes "Seared Raw"
    Fernando M.

    I ordered the Wild Ahi Tuna plate which comes with 2 sides. I chose Rice and Cucumber Slices along with the "Seared Raw" option. The cashier was friendly and helpful with providing information so I can make the right now choice. The food arrived promptly and the tuna was cooked perfectly. The tuna was perfectly seared but still raw in the middle which it was I wanted. This restaurant is more of a casual dine in or to go type of place. This time I got my food to go and it was packaged well.

    HAWAIIAN SHRIMP TRIO
    Travis P.

    California Fish Grill is always pretty good, and this time we ordered through the app for pickup. We didn't have to wait long and were able to grab the order quickly. They now have a lobster roll, and I was surprised it was actually pretty good for $14. I also got the protein bowl for free through an in-app reward, and it was good as well. Overall, it's a great place if you're looking for something reasonably healthy at a good price.

    SALMON & SWAI COMBO
    Vivian P.

    Was super excited when this spot was about to open two years ago--and it did not disappoint. Same plaza as Panda Express, Nothing Bundt Cakes, Dave's Hot Chicken, and Ono's, so you've got plenty of food options around. Parking is surprisingly decent, which already makes this place a win. Plenty of seating whether you're feeling indoorsy or pretending you enjoy fresh air. They have kiosk ordering now, which makes things quick and easy--no long lines, just tap, order, and wait for your food. I always order my usual: salmon and swai combo with garlic sauce because if you're not getting garlic sauce, what are you even doing? Gotta have my coleslaw, and hubby sticks with his rice and fries like a loyal man of habit. It's a solid protein meal when you're craving fish but don't want anything fancy--just good, happy comfort food. Place is always clean and service is pretty decent, even though most of the ordering is through the kiosk. Definitely a nice spot to try if you're in the area, and I'll definitely be back for more!

    Swai and salmon combo. On the small size
    Dan K.

    Review for swai and salmon combo 3/5. Flavor was decent but lacking in portion size. If you are paying $18.99 I expected a little more fish and zucchini. Green goddess sauce was yummy

    Kimmi C.

    Great healthy alternative to fast food. They have great grilled fish options and if you want to splurge get the fish and chips. Giant crunchy fish with flakes filet. I would also recommend the lobster roll and cl chowder

    Elizabeth M.

    Good food good people good customer service. They're very attentive. The food is so fresh. Ambiance is top. Fernando was very welcoming

    There's a single grilled Cajun shrimp taco in the that was the highlight of our meal!
    Ann Q.

    Gloria my dear! I love your food!!! I found out today that Gloria is the cook who makes the best costal shrimp tacos! She doesn't skimp on the sauces, it's perfectly cooked and saucy!!! I've enjoyed CFG at several locations and without fail will default to the Rosemead location because not only is the service excellent here, but the place is clean and the food always hits!!! Other places either skimp on the taco sauces or are stingy with the sides etc. Love the Rosemead team! Great job Fernando!!! You run a very happy store and it shows with your employees!! My next mission is to find out which retail store I can get the tarter sauce from cuz I need that at my house!

    Fish and chips, salmon swap combo, and sea bass. Good food

    Pulled up to this taco stand and it was already packed, which is always a good sign. I actually was…read morewaiting for a table nearby, but you can't miss the giant spinning al pastor right up front. So I went straight for the al pastor first. What I liked right away is that they don't chop it down into tiny bits. You actually get slices of al pastor that are chewy, tender, and full of flavor. They top it with a good piece of pineapple too, which balances everything out. The condiments were fresh, and you can load up however you like. At around $3 a taco, I was full after four and honestly felt like it was worth it. Simple, busy, and straight to the point. Out in the street, the place opens up with a casual but flaming setup. Definitely a solid late night stop and you can't miss it if you're just driving up San Gabriel Blvd heading home.

We both heard it flying first, and he looked extremely uncomfortable and disturbed. I kept saying there were roaches, but the woman taking our order didn't acknowledge it at all. After ordering, we looked around more carefully and noticed several adult roaches around the truck. We even heard another girl on the other side scream because a roach flew at her too. On top of that, the food quality wasn't worth the price. We ordered 3 burritos and 4 tacos, and the total came out to almost $50. When we got home, 2 out of the 3 burritos were wrapped so poorly that they completely unraveled while eating. One of the people I ordered for got so frustrated they stopped eating altogether. Sadly, between the hygiene concerns, lack of response from staff, declining food quality, and high prices, I would never return.

We stopped by after the gym and ordered some food. My partner and I shared the nachos, while our friends got the quesadilla and tacos. Everyone enjoyed their meal. The food tasted fresh, was well-seasoned, and wasn't overly salty, which I really appreciated. One thing I love is their salsa bar. They have a self-serve area outside the truck where you can get as much salsa as you want. It's convenient, and it's nice that they're not stingy with condiments. They also offer daily specials. We didn't order any of the daily deals this time, but they looked like a great value. If you're looking for delicious food at an even better price, definitely check out their daily specials before ordering. The location is another plus. It's right outside Jefferson Middle School in a quiet area with plenty of parking, making it very convenient to visit. Several people recommended the horchata, saying I had to try it, so I ended up getting one and sharing it with my partner. It was really good! The only thing I noticed was that it didn't come with ice, so we added some when we got home. The service was quick and friendly. They took our order right away, and the food was ready in about 10 minutes. Overall, we had a great experience and will definitely be coming back soon.

Some of their most popular dishes include Asada Burritos, Super Fries, and Tlayudas. I recently attended an event at my son's school where Chanos was a vendor. It was my first time seeing them there, and I was glad to see them, as they've replaced other vendors in the past. I had already eaten, but who can resist a burrito?! My son was getting hungry, so I ordered an Asada Burrito for us to share. It was pretty good; the tortilla was excellent. I wasn't a fan of their rice and beans, but the asada was not bad. They had a few salsas to try. They used those tiny salsa containers, which everyone knows. Restaurants use them to prevent over-indulgence, but it takes a while to get enough salsa because they're so small. I understand it's a cost-saving measure. They were also serving Churros ($3), and I got two. They were okay, a bit doughy in the middle, making me think they were undercooked. The guys working the booth were super friendly and attentive. I appreciate them! Realistically, the burrito was a 3/5, but with the good service and their community support, I'm rounding it up to a 4. Until next time, Chanos! Gracias!

I was starving. I parked and went in. I ordered 2 fish tacos and the cook instantly got 2 FRESH (not frozen) larger than expected, fish fillets, THEN dipped them into HOMEMADE BATTER right in front of me and dropped them into the fry basket. Where will you ever see that nowadays? They were ready almost instantly, and were done perfect Baja style, with lots of that good salty mayo+crema white sauce. THEY WERE AWESOME. And BIG. And would have cost WAY MORE at any other place...for $5. Really satisfying, I was NOT hungry after 2 of them. Since then I have probably been there 7 times, the quality has never varied. And they make all their own salsas, etc. I have even taken jobs down in that area just so I can eat there! ;-) The only other thing I have tried is taco de lengua, it was equally excellent, with LOTS of meat, not some skimpy little street taco thing. But just go there and see what $5 will get you with the fish tacos, this has to be the best deal in today's food world that I have found and I work all over the San Gabriel Valley and eat at dozens of places. Its not fancy though, old school with lots of handmade cardboard signs showing lots of other dishes, but this is the ambiance you will find in some of the BEST mom and pop type cafe's. The ratio of deliciousness and quality to price is insanely in favor of the customer!!
