We love this spot! Been here a few times, but after having moved to HB, we came again after July 4th. Fred's location is amazing, with great views of the beach from the upstairs patio. The food is delicious and service was very quick, especially considering how packed it was. Pricing is pretty reasonable and portions a just right. I had the Baha Fish tacos and my wife had the Calamari Strips.

You gotta try the House Margarita Goblet, for sure!

If you love great beach views and excellent Mexican food, Fred's is a must visit when you're in Huntington Beach!

Great place and food. Meed a great Waitress ask for Brianna very attentive and Manager je came by a couple of times just checking in. Definitely will be back when in this area.

Fred's doesn't mess around with portion sizes - I'm pretty sure they're legally required to warn you before bringing out the plates. Had an absolute blast here, and the food was so good I almost forgot how ridiculously huge everything was. Drinks never went dry. The staff was awesome and knew the surrounding area well, and by the end of lunch, everyone's either planning the next visit or figuring out how to fit the leftovers in their fridge. Fair warning: come hungry or bring reinforcements!

Had a reservation and got seated right away. An amazing view and amazing foods. Although, they had messed up my order but brought what I had ordered very quickly. Again the food was amazing! On another note, we had ordered a third margarita with plans watch and enjoy the sunset for a bit. When received, after knowing what it should be from the other two, the third drink was straight juice.

It was a very nice place. Views are great and so was the service. Food tasted awesome and was fresh.

U need to try the chicken chingadera!

We stumbled upon this restaurant while at the beach. It's absolutely fantastic! Don't miss eating here!

Had an excellent meal and experience at Fred's. I greatly appreciate their willingness to modify their meal to cater to my carnivore diet.
It was my wife's birthday and they were excellent in helping us celebrate.
Did was tasty, great views, and everyone left happy and full.
Highly recommend.

The front desk said "they don't take reservation. " Fortunately there was plenty of seating available. I definitely had an Open Table confirmed reservation.

Overall everything was fine. Extra busy that night. Came in to celebrate wife's birthday and they forgot. Also was unaware of her allergies that I put in the reservation on open table.

Fred's is a go to for my family. Celebrated my nieces 18th birthday here and service/food was fabulous. They went above and beyond for us!!!

Always love Fred's. The food is great and you can't beat the view of the beach. Only downside is the margaritas aren't great.

Great food, great atmosphere. Very tasty, and good quality margaritas. Despite service staff being short a person that day they still came by our table regularly. Overall great experience!

Fred's is a staple in our household. It's the first place we go when guests arrive. The food is delicious! The server staff is very attentive, and even the manager stops by to check on the service. Besides all this, Fred's offers the most picturesque dining experience with views of the beach crowd, HB pier, and gorgeous sunsets. 5***** We love Fred's!
