50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Mission Viejo

“Wonderful food and great service!“

“pasta , lasagna very friendly polite and helpful waiter“

“This is my 4th time coming here. Their food is sooo good 😊
Every I came here, I wrote a review but they seemed to have disappeared so I’m writing a new one. I ordered the chicken biryani because my server Amid recommended it. Amid was very courteous and attentive. If you like Indian food, this is one of the best 😋“

“Great vibes and crew. Food has great variety (large or small portions) and service is quick and efficient. I bring friends and family days and nights when we want frssh Italian meals away from home.“

“Love this place. I’m surprised I haven’t reviewed it as I’ve been probably 60 times since I found it! I will say here and there sometimes it is inconsistent with the amount of sauce you get based on who is serving you, but otherwise the team is always really friendly and super quick!!!

The fish/ingredients are always fresh and flavorful.

So they earn all five stars.“

“This was my go to your place, but I’m very disappointed that they took away the blackened chicken. I would go at least once a day, and sometimes twice a day, two or three times a week. Their blackened chicken salad was just amazing. Their beans are delicious and I love their salsa. Now, I sometimes go two times a week, but really just to see the staff because they are amazing!
The shrimp and the Carne Asada are good, but it is not like the blackened chicken. I would imagine it’s much slower now because I know so many people went for the blackened chicken. Maybe in the future they can rethink that decision.“

“The new Smoky Oaxacan Shrimp 🍤 Bowl 🍲 is one their best creations. How can you beat rice and beans, Shrimp, guacamole, tortilla strips, and chipotle sauce. Probably a lot of sodium so you may want to get it to go and save some for later.“

“they go out there way to deliver a beautiful curry, Rice nan, onion bahgee everything beautiful as always..10 out of 10 for everything...Col Carno“

“I got the Loco Moco for delivery. It was so savory. It comes with hamburger patties topped with brown gravy and two fresh fried eggs. I got the eggs sunny side up. I love the gooey yolk. It adds more delicious flavor. I also got three huge servings of macaroni salad. That too was flavorful and delicious. The spam Musubi were huge. I would definitely go again and recommend it.“

“The staff here is excellent!!!! These guys are always running around doing their best to serve people. I FORGOT you okay it the front so bring cash for a tip. I felt I didnt5 leave as much as I sgould have, I'm sorry. Really awesome and welcoming. Haven't been here since I was a kid. Totally fun for the nostaliga love. The salad bar was awesome, glad to see it open again. Good prices for everything as well. Life you get tons of healthy options here! They still have the cheese toast! That was my treat with the salad. The food is good and simple. Perfect spot for picky eaters, I saw plenty of kids getting food and actually eating it.“

“Dining at Rosewood Social is always a treat. We enjoy taking in the San Juan vibe, on their outdoor patio, as we savor the delicious flavors of their Asian Fusion dishes. My favorites are their Bang Bang Shrimp Appetizer followed by the Chilean Seabass with sauteed bok choy & rice, served with a delicious thai basil Asian dipping sauce. You can always count on Jake at the bar, to take great care of you.“

“No frills poke walk up window service restaurant with generously portioned, fresh, reasonably priced bowls. Shrimp tempura is excellent as well. Limited seating, no bathrooms ( only at store next door if you buy something), gets busy at peak times.“

“So many good things. Soba noodle salad. yum! My favorite is the healthy fish and chips. The cajun whitefish was unbelievable! Everything is that I’ve had there.“

“Great service, great food!!👏“

“First time here and love this place new favorite pokey spot. Kye told me he could make me a really good bowl and he made me his bowl. The chef introduced himself and advised me the salmon was fresh. Amazing bowl for an amazing price my new spot.“

“This is a stellar restaurant with a great family-owned vibe. Chef Rob is brilliant and the apps, entrees, and desserts are all exquisite. His creativity that he lets loose in his Flight Club events is unparalleled. They have extra-friendly staff and elite customer service. And the fine dining experience comes with a fair price and an amazing value. Check it out and meet the Chef, you won’t be disappointed.“

“Everything was so delicious, with fresh ingredients. Service was smooth, fast, and friendly. We ordered off the lunch special menu and really enjoyed the smaller portions.
Poke Appetizer ($9)
Chicken Teriyaki Small Plate Lunch Special ($9)
Taco Tuesday Fish Taco ($2.50)
Blackened Chimichurri Mahi ($11)

Only regret is not ordering and trying more dishes!“

“Quality food at fair prices! Can't wait to come back & actually sit down in the nice dining area. 👍🏼“

“We had a wonderful experience at the Monarch Beach Bay Club. We started with the calamari, which was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. For our main dishes, the swordfish was fresh and beautifully prepared, and the bolognese was rich and delicious.

The beachfront views were truly extraordinary and made the entire meal feel special. Sitting right by the ocean, with the sound of the waves and the open coastal atmosphere, really elevated the experience.

Great food, an incredible setting, and an overall relaxed yet refined vibe. We will definitely be back.“

“We live right up the canyon and had never visited. Highly recommend!! Great food, reasonable prices, our waitress, Cassidy was so great! She was efficient with everything and just had the nicest personality. We will be back!!!“

“good food on the go. plenty of seafood options.“

“Food was delicious, especially the Chilean seabass. Service was fast and friendly. Lost my wallet. Went back and the manager Brian Dogotch had it saved for me. Thanks for a great experience!“

“Very good stuff! Being picky and in the same type of business, it's difficult to find. Great job guys. will be back next time I'm in town“

“This food truck is tucked in the same lot as George’s Episcopal Church. Pro tip: map the church so you don’t get lost. There are several eateries in that lot, but don’t get distracted just look for the green food truck and you’ll know you’ve found the right spot!

I came here right after my workout and ordered food to go. OMG, I had no idea the tacos were humongous! They are literally the size of my palm spread out! Jeeesuz!

I ordered three tacos:

Gobernador: I didn’t get to it until the next day, but the shrimp were so big and juicy, and that Chipotle aioli? Pure genius. I could put that on everything!
Octopus: The only one I ate fresh that day and oh my goodness, flavor explosion! The melted cheese, the seasoning, the texture… everything about it is 10/10!
Spicy Shrimp: I accidentally doubled up on shrimp tacos so I saved this one for the next day too, still delicious, still worth it.

Service can take a little while since there’s only one person taking orders and they’re cooking everything fresh in the truck, but trust me , it’s absolutely worth the wait!

Who would’ve thought a little food truck could make such a big impact? Don’t sleep on this hidden gem please come and taste the goodness for yourself!“

“It amazing 😻 great crew on Banquets’s“

“So much fun! Came here for my birthday and they did everything right- food, ambiance, staff, etc“

“The Best in OC . Great music. Great food.“

“Really enjoyed my stay! The rooms were quiet and comfortable, the hotel bar was fantastic, and the room service was excellent. Loved the thoughtful little amenities—they really made a difference.“

“Delicious and fine food, stunning scenery, exceptional personnel. Absolutely recommended!“

“Lunch tacos are flavorful. The menu is automated for your personal selection.
I tried one each of three taco choices. Avoiding breaded and fried food, the Cajun Shrimp and Cajun Fish tacos were very good and filling. The grilled chicken was taken to-go because the tacos are nicely filled, not street tacos.
Hara hachi bu.
The shrimp and avocado salad looked good although they use a substantial amount of dressing.“

“I went today for the first time and had a half dozen, I forgot the name of the oyster but they were from baja California and briney. Very delicious. I left wishing I got the full dozen. The fish and chips were also great. I wish I remembered the name of our server because he was super informative and helpful. We will definitely be back, and next time I'm getting a full dozen for sure.“

“amazing atmosphere and food was absolutely delicious!!!“

“Each dish is spectacular. Love the calamari ….can be an appetizer to share or eat on your own with a salad. 230:Forest Avenue never disappoints!!!“

“great food, healthy options“

“Great food, service and atmosphere.“

“excellent food atmophere and service!“

“Our first time! Fresh seafood and excellent service. Didn't like the screaming music from the single speaker. It is on the harbor, the ambiance is beautiful no need for such noise!“

“JACKS was delightful. The restaurant is elegant, the service is superb and the food is outstanding. It was my first time and I was extremely impressed. Jack, the owner, also introduced himself to us, and he is as lovely and delightful as his establishment.“

“Had a wonderful evening out with my wife at Ironwood Cellars in Laguna Hills. We had reservations for 5:30 p.m. and arrived early. We were greeted by Joe, the manager on duty, who was very kind, professional, and welcoming. Art was our server and is amazingly gifted in customer service professionalism and overall people skills. Yes, showing the love. We started with tequilla drinks from the bar, and we each had a wedge salad. Joe sent us over a wonderful Agnolotti appetizer as well, which was more than kind. The ambiance was positive and upbeat, perfect for the evening. Sergio was also quite attentive in making sure our table was serviced properly. We ordered our entrees with my wife having the halibut dinner, and I had the famous giant meatball dish. Both meals were hot & tasty and presented well. We had a terrific time, and Art surprised us with a complimentary dessert 🍨 with berries. The restaurant is so nice and offers an outdoor patio and bar seating as well. The wine list is extensive, as are the craft beers. Highly recommended.“

“Amazing steaks, the bone in rib ey and filet mignon for my girl was perfect. Barely talked the food was so good haha. Kyle was so gracious and welcoming , it was our first time here. I rarely give full stars but honestly this place and the staff deserve it. Expectations exceeded. Do your self a favor and stop by 🤙“

“PMG offers great food & service.“

“Great spot! View and food were great!!“

“Fresh fish expertly prepared by friendly chef with equally cheerful service staff! We will be back“

“This restaurant is a hidden gem. The food is incredible, the service is amazing, and we love the live piano music. There are so many restaurants in the area to choose from, but we find ourselves always choosing Luxe.“

“Delicious 🥰familiale belle vague 🌊 beach 🏝️☀️“

“Súper recomendado muy sabroso 😋 y muy amables todos 💕🙏“

“The Lumberyard located in beautiful downtown Laguna Beach is a great place to have lunch or dinner. There is a new $16 lunch menu and I decided to try the fish tacos. There was a choice between salmon or halibut for the tacos which included shredded cabbage with a pink cream sauce and a side of black bean and corn salad. I chose the halibut for my taco and it was cooked perfectly. It was a generous portion of fish in each of the tacos so it could easily be split with a friend. The service was excellent. Our orders were taken within about five minutes of sitting down and the food came out quickly after we ordered. I would recommend the Lumberyard if you are visiting Laguna Beach. You will need to have reservations during the Art Festivals or when there is a play at the Playhouse.“

“I like Nono's Affordable Mexican food, and a front patio to also eat at. I like there enchiladas, tostados, tacos.“
