This place is absolutely delicious! I really enjoyed the food and can see why it's so popular. We arrived right when they opened at 12:15 p.m. on a Saturday, and there was already a line out the door. Despite the crowd, we were seated within about 25-30 minutes, which wasn't too bad. Just be sure not to arrive too hungry because we don't want yall to be hangry! If you're looking to avoid the wait, I'd recommend visiting on a weekday, especially around 2 pm or 3 pm. The service was friendly, attentive, and efficient. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere had a welcoming vibe that reminded me of being in Thailand, which added to the overall experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is spacious and comfortable, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] As for the food, their fish and chips are hands down the best I've had. The portions were generous, everything tasted fresh, and every bite was worth it. While the prices are on the higher side, the quality, service, and overall experience make it well worth the splurge. I'll definitely be coming back with my gf! read more

3.5 Stars First visit and had an okay experience. We went to celebrate my mom's birthday. The service was efficient, but not overly friendly. The food was a mixed bag. Some items were delicious; others were lacking in flavor or had an "unusual" taste. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The dining area is a decent size, it was clean, and there is plenty of parking in the shopping center's lot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] FOOD: We ordered a varied selection from the menu. Some items, Breaded Shrimp ($7.95), Smoky Seared Ahi Tuna ($20,95), and Ocean House Halibut ($33.95) were very tasty, but the Ahi Tuna Grilled, served rare ($18.95), Clam Chowder ($9.95), and Seafood Bisque ($10.95) were only okay. I mentioned an unusual taste, not bad, but the flavors of the chowder and the bisque were different than I've had at other seafood restaurants. I tried their Thai Iced Tea ($5.25) which was good. Overall, we felt that this dinner experience could have been better, but I would be willing to pay them a second visit and try some different menu items. read more

Parking: There's a dedicated parking lot. Hard to find parking at a busy time, but there should always be a space available. I love that this is a family mom and pop shop curated for fresh seafood. There's an assortment ranging from ahi tuna, There will always be at least one group waiting to be seated inside. Additionally there's also sign in waitlist on busy days and times. Fried calamari: I don't prefer their fried version. It came out pretty fast, but I wish the batter coating was more intact, it fell apart on my first bite. Squid was soft and tender inside. Battered fish and chips: Fish was HUMONGOUS. So crispy and crunchy, fish was juicy and piping hot. Chips/fries were okay to me, it was soft on the inside and outside. Kale slaw was good, light on dressing and wasn't heavily drenched. read more

Ocean House Fish Grill - Fried Calamari (8 pcs) - Seafood Near Me - San Dimas, California

Visited during Father's Day weekend, so it was pretty crowded, but the wait was only about 10 minutes--not bad at all. Just make sure you put your name down on the clipboard I thought it was an order first spot, but it's actually a sit-down restaurant. The portions are huge, definitely great for sharing, and the prices are pretty reasonable for what you get. The battered fish was really good, but the calamari was just okay--the breading was falling apart, which was a bit disappointing. The coconut shrimp was tasty, especially with the sauce on the side, though it felt a bit pricey for just five pieces. Kale slaw was delish! Way better than coleslaw Fries could be better though. Service could've been better. I think next time it's better to share the entree and grab few appetizers. Overall, I'd come back again! read more

It was our first visit and we were excited to try the different options available. We showed up 20 minutes after opening, and their tables were almost full. When we left there were people waiting outside, not a line but a few groups. We were seated right away! We tried the coconut shrimp, the purple cabbage salad, Fish n Chips, Salmon Chargrilled plate, Tilapia chargrilled plate and the shrimp cajun taco combo. I would say we were all pleased with each dish. That coconut shrimp appetizer was so crispy and so fresh at the same time, with this orange glaze dipping sauce. The value is good for the portion size for sure. It's nice to go somewhere that offers healthy meals and not have to pay an arm and a leg for it. The fish n chips was HUGE, totally shareable! A favorite of ours was the Kaleslaw salad and the purple cabbage! I'm excited to go back and try other dishes! I have faith that they will all be delicious. read more

Thank goodness we rolled in right when they opened, because by 12:30 -- just as our butts hit the seats -- a line had already formed outside like they were giving away free money. Or free fish. Spoiler: they were not. The fish is fresh. We didn't get fish and chips like every other sensible human being in the building (we really should have). The mahi mahi was fresh but also seemed like it had been thinking about its life choices -- a little dry. The rice on the side? Let's just say "barely warm" is generous. It was flirting with room temperature. The rainbow trout was fine. Just fine. Not fireworks, not tragedy. A solid "okay." The clam chowder, though? Actually good. That chowder was the hero we didn't deserve. Service was okay -- a little slow, but hey, the place was packed. They were trying their best, probably sweating more than the fish did in that rice. read more

THE BEST. The food is so fresh, the service is friendly and food comes out quick & hot ! I love this spot. We came here to see what the fish & chips were all about, and yes.yes.yes. They were the bomb. The breaking on the fish was light, airy, and a beautiful golden color. The fish, was meaty! Very filling & it tasted clean. Like they really clean the oil to ensure the food doesn't taste like old oil. The kale salad compliments the whole plate very nicely. Don't get me started on those green teas. I can order them endlessly. Definitely worth coming here. All the dishes here are so good too. read more

We were craving for fish and chip and found this place with great reviews, so we decided to stop by. There was a line when I got here during dinner time, but the line was moving pretty quickly. Services were prompt, and our servers were very friendly. They were also very attentive. We ordered lobster bisque, fish and chips, shrimp taco, and fish taco. The lobster bisque was very flavorful with the perfect texture (it was not too thick or too watery)! It has a lot of lobster meat in it. The shrimp and fish inside the taco was very fresh. The fish had a very crispy batter, but not overly thick. The fish was not oily, and fish was flavorful! The chips was crispy! The kale salad that came with the fish and chips was a surprise! The salad dressing was a bit sweet. It was refreshing. I will come back again for sure! This become my favorite fish and ship restaurant in Los Angeles! read more

If you love fried fish and seafood, this is the place for you! It's located in an unsuspecting shopping center and if it wasn't for the sign, we would have missed it! But once you walk in, you're greeted by welcoming staff members and delicious food! It was our first time there so we had to try the popular fish and chips dish. We also ordered their coconut shrimp and cajun salmon dish. The coconut shrimp was one of the best I've ever had! It came out piping hot and the coconut taste was prominent. I'm not a big fish person but this place converted me! The Cajun salmon was perfectly seasoned and paired well with the garlic rice. It was crispy but not over cooked. The fish and chips were light but flavorful. And the portion size was a plus! Everything we got out was delicious and was large enough to share. Will come back again to try other menu items. As a note, it gets really busy around 12 so either come early or make a reservation! read more

I ate here for the first time because I saw Hungry 4 Munchies post about it and it was super close by. Asian owned, service is amazing, FOOD IS IMMACULATE!!! We got the clam chowder, calamari, and fish and chips. It's literally the best fish and chips I've ever had in my life, so good that I had to go 2 days in a row! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance is great, has that family owned vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will definitely be back to try other stuff like cod and shrimp etc. read more

Ocean House Fish Grill - Battered Fish & Chips - Seafood Near Me - San Dimas, California

Short version: Severly understaffed- they can't handle their social media buzz. don't order online via doordash for pick up they will having you waiting an extra hour I had an order scheduled via doordash for 4:02 pick up- I put it in at 3:40. Their system confirmed at 3:44. I showed up at later than expected at 4:20 as I i had taken a wrong turn driving. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is a line out the door.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] When I showed up their staff tells me my order was bumped to 4:13- ok but and are telling me they don't have it and are busy and its another 20 min. the waitress tried to tell me i was early- I wasn't- your kitchen pushed back the order till 4:13 and then again another 20 minutes verbally. (ended up another half hour. I'm not going to argue in front of a line of people. Obviously they serve in person people first and don't prioritize pick up orders. just close your kitchen then food finally ready at 4:50. yes, people who were standing in line when I came in at 4:20 were seated with orders in or eating. the only option I had from doordash was to cancel but I already drove 40 min here- they did credit me $10 for my extra time. I'm all for places being busy- especially if having a social media moment but don't accept online orders if you kitchen is unable to handle them in the timeframe given read more

I've had my eye on this place for a while and finally got the chance to check it out. I was not disappointed! I had lunch on a Thursday just past noon and we were seated immediately. We shared the Coconut Shrimp, Clam Chowder, Battered Shrimp taco, and Fish n Chips. Coconut shrimp ($8) was fantastic. Came with 5 shrimp, fried beautifully with strips of coconut, served with an orange marmalade dipping sauce. This was really good, especially considering, I'm not the biggest fan of coconut. Clam Chowder ($10) was also really good. Lots of clams, herbs and seasonings made this soup really stand out. Pretty big portion as well so it was good to share. Battered Shrimp taco ($4.25) surprisingly good. You get 3 large, super crispy shrimp on top of a cabbage slaw and some really tasty sauce. Fish n Chips ($19) included 3 large strips of fish. Fried golden and super crispy. The Swai fish was extremely soft and tender. It is kind of greasy as you should expect from fried fish but it didn't give you that nasty greasy feeling after eating it. The kale slaw on the side is fresh and the dressing is tasty as well. The only negative is that the fries are just standard (frozen) fries. Not terrible but not great. If they had better fries, I would have absolutely no complaints at all. Service was very good, friendly, and attentive. Value is solid. Our meal came out to about $45 before tip. I would definitely return here! read more

I had the serious Saturday swai fish fry with fries on the side! This place is like a charcuterie board with Chardonnay and cocaine with a cigarette... I mean, it simply does get any better than this! The fish is crispy and crunchy like a got damn buttferfinger, man, come on down and get some of this delicious dish read more

Saw this place on TikTok the other day and came back after not being here for about a year. Safe to say it did not disappoint. My boyfriend got the fish and chips and honestly they were some of the best we've tried, super crispy and fresh without feeling too heavy. I got the Cajun salmon and it was SO good. Perfect crisp on the outside and still juicy inside. Definitely a 10/10 meal for both of us. The staff here are also incredibly nice and actually interact with customers, which makes the whole place feel really welcoming and family-like. Definitely going to make it a point to come by more often now. read more

The food is so ridiculously good. The quality is so ridiculously good. The service is so ridiculously good. Ocean House deserves every 5 star review that they have received. Their pricing is so incredibly fair for the quality and portions you receive. I may have found my new favorite post workout dinner spot. The crisp on the fish and chips was unreal even after the food cooled down. Safe to say they have the recipe for their batter down to a tee because I am still thinking about it right now. read more

Dropped in for fish n chips. pricey but the batter was crunchy. You have to request the malt vinegar or you will only get tarter sauce and catsup. The dining room is nice and the staff are attentive.

We tried this place for the first time, we were very excited about the fried fish and the clam chowder. As soon as we got there, the service was very nice, polite and attentive. The place is clean and well organize. The one thing we didn't like was the claim chowder seems to me there was a potato base which we didn't like we prefer New England clam chowder. We order the cod, fish and chips. The fish was OK, but it was very thin and a lot of batter on it. It was dry. It was not flaky or moist. The french fries needed to be a little bit more cook or maybe I like a little more crunchy. The portions were bigger... the kale slaw was raspy on my throat. I think they need to cut a little bit finer or blanched a bit . I did not enjoy that. We may stop by to give them another chance, but that right now I have no desire to visit this restaurant. read more

We have now been here several times, and I now feel comfortable enough to write an honest review. Our orders have included the fish and chips, shrimp tacos, clam chowder, lobster bisque, the miso cod and the white fish platters. Most everything was very good with the exception of the lobster bisque, which for us, was only okay. My kid really likes the shrimp tempura and chowder which is full of clams and other goodies. The fish and chips is also great, but a little bit on the greasier side, but still very delicious. The few times we've been here, it's always been busy. With it being that busy, orders can take a little more time, which is to be expected. Service is okay, and when busy, you do have to flag them down. They're always nice and friendly though. Located in a strip mall with plenty of parking! read more

朋友跟我說這一家餐廳的review很好，所以真的是我來第二次來San Dimas 吃飯，沒想到兩家餐廳都在同一個發展，其實進去裡面他們的服務不差，這個環境也還可以，沒有給他五顆星是因為東西雖然不錯吃，但是我覺得他們份量比較小一點，很可惜我們沒有聽到他們最紅的炸魚片，後來看到別桌有拿上來，看起來就很不錯，我們的魚其實也不錯吃，但是就像我講的比這個價格Irvine好像可以在豐富一些 read more

This was my first visit to this new seafood grill. The service was friendly. I was seated promptly. I didn't wait long for my order. I will serve piping hot. I have to highly recommend the vegetable egg rolls. There were three pieces. It was served piping hot with the usual sweet-and-sour sauce. The wrappers were very crisp, not soggy, and the vegetables was very crunchy. I also ordered the Burundi with black pepper sauce, which is an Asian Seabass topped with a black pepper sauce, fried onion with a grilled asparagus, Japanese red cabbage, and rice, berry rice. I thought the fish was pretty fair. It was cooked. Well I'd like the seasoning had a little bit of spiciness to it. the asparagus were perfect. They weren't soggy had a bit of crunch, as well as the red cabbage was in a slaw type presentation. I never heard of Rice berry rice, which is a very dark, almost black sticky type rice with a very kind of nutty flavor. It was it was OK. I'm not a big rice fan. I think I would order a different rice substitute next time but overall I really like this place and would plan to come back again whenever I had the need for and a taste for fish or seafood. I believe their menu is quite extensive with a lot of different choices. It has a nice open, clean ambience very modern appearing. My only criticism would be I'm a big fan of Arnold Palmer T, which I thought in this particular case was a bit on the weak side not much taste of lemonade in the iced tea I think was unsweetened read more

We always have a fine meal here. The prices are reasonable especially given the quality of the food and service. There are several meals here that distinguish this places over others for me. One is the Crispy Rainbow trout. I have had this many times here and each time it is excellent (crunchy on the outside moist and tender on the inside. Another "must try" is the crispy tune and sweet chili sauce -- Its a tender flavorful piece of tuna with a little kick of flavor from the sauce read more

I ordered the fish and chips (cod). Overall, it wasn't bad, but I was disappointed that the fish was served as one large clump instead of separate pieces. It seemed like the fish had been frozen together, and rather than separating the pieces before cooking, it was fried exactly as it came out of the freezer. The flavor was decent, but the presentation and preparation could definitely be improved. read more

Came on a date lunch with the husband who has been craving fish and chips., so we ordered the fish and chips. I got it with fries but really wanted to try their garlic rice. I am glad I did. As a Filipino, we love garlic rice, honestly I could have just eaten that with an egg over easy and some longanisa or fried spam. But back to the fish, super crispy and flavorful, but the fish was thin and I should have went with the cod, so I could have more fish. Husband really enjoyed his, because he loves the batter. He did however not like the kale slaw. He wanted a traditional slaw. The second issue is the sauces. For the amount of fish you are served (3 lg pieces) your only given 1 of your choice. He was given 1 tartar sauce and I received 1 little container of malt vinegar. I want feeling the malt, and I do not like tartar sauce so I asked for cocktail sauce. I guess that is not a sauce on the list so they charge you extra. Not to found of that, I got it because I love cocktail sauce, it's not even a homemade sauce from their kitchen. Overall the staff are friendly, the refil your water when it gets low (thank you for that) and the food is good. I think if we go back it will be for one of the grilled fish plates, or even their fish tacos. read more

Ocean House Fish Grill - Sign - Seafood Near Me - San Dimas, California

Fish house? In San Dimas? Honestly first thought, I'm not sure. But by chance, we decided to stop by this restaurant and we are so glad we did! We came here on an odd Monday for dinner and the restaurant was quiet. We were greeted by some very friendly staff and everyone that worked there seemed so friendly, I can't tell if this is a family establishment. The easiest way to compare this restaurant is that it is similar to California Fish Grill - there are grilled and fried fish options, many variety to choose from, with different type of entrees like salad or rice to make it a meal. The plates are large in portions, but at a very competitive pricing. We enjoyed our dinner and as the night went on, there were more regulars that rolled on in. This is a cozy restaurant and I am glad to have found a little gem in San Dimas ! read more

The Bottom Line: Delicious, fresh, and fast. The Food: Incredible fish and chips with massive portions. If you aren't in the mood for fried food, they have plenty of excellent non-breaded options too. The Service: Lightning fast and super friendly. The Vibe: The restaurant is spotless and the decor is great. We'll definitely be back! read more

We were seated right away. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lunch crowd was leaving.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice clean looking place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Friendly and attentive staff. Ordered onion rings. Bread seemed to have a stale taste. Next came some coconut shrimp, maybe overcooked, maybe mid grade shrimp, farmed? No pop, firm. To finish I had the cod and chips. I'd prefer larger size steak cut chips, should be hotter and crispier. Skin left on would be preferable. The cod was a bit dry around the edges, tough in a few spots, but over all hot, steamy, flaky, but lacking some flavor. Batter was flavorless, crispy, a tad oily, salt? What kind of oil do you folks use? It doesn't take away, but it doesn't add anything either. read more

Lunch date with friends on a busy weekday at Ocean House Grill in San Dimas. We were seated as soon as we entered but took a while to get back on our table to get our orders , it was a good 15 mins wait. Fortunately, our food was quickly serve. We ordered the shrimp plate, that was average for me. The salad was ok but the fries were dry. The Pacific cod with miso glaze taste really good paired with a very interesting wasabi mashed potato flavor. I also enjoyed the salmon with green curry, it has a spicy kick to it but not over powering. Menu pricing around $15 - $25. Over all service was nice and the servers were friendly. read more

I saw this restaurant on an instagram reel @nate.eatz and I had to try it. The portions at Ocean House Fish Grill do not disappoint and you will definitely be leaving with a to-go box. Unless you are a big back like me. The battered fish and chips were extremely crunchy and the insides were very soft. I would recommend getting the battered cod over the swai fish if you want a firmer, fishier taste. I love matcha. The service here is absolutely amazing. The servers are extremely nice and welcoming. If you were lookin for matcha it's not here, but you can depend on their green Thai tea. If you are a fan of fish and chips this is the perfect place to go. I love matcha. read more

The fish and chips are very crispy on the outside and flaky inside. I highly recommend trying their homemade tartar sauce with your meal.

Saw a real advertising this place and had to try it out. I was craving some clam chowder and fish and chips, I ordered both and some fried oysters. The clam chowder arrived first and right off the bat, the appearance looked off, I took a spoonful and it was not creamy nor did I get an overwhelming clam taste. The texture was clumpy and a little gritty and did not have a cream base like a normal New England chowder has, it almost tasted and felt like blended potatoes and some other stuff. The fried oysters were perfect, however the tartar sauce was a bit on the sweet side for my liking. The fried cod was too thinly sliced and seemed over done as when I took a bite from it the fish was not tender and juicy. I elected to have sweet potato fries instead of regular fries and they were a little undercooked. Overall not the greatest place to get fish and chips. read more
