We've eaten at Starfish several times and it's become one of our favorites. Menu has a wide range of options, the food is always fresh & delicious, the service is very good, and love the music. It's small which we prefer over big, loud and busy restaurants.

My husband and I have tried the Laguna Beach Starfish location and decided to try the Newport Beach one as well. The food and service here were exceptional and we'll definitely be returning! For sushi we ordered the Lobster macadamia roll and Crab California roll. Both tasted so fresh and we loved the siracha ailoli on each, adds a nice spice flavor.
For an entree, we got the Cambodian black pepper filet with the coconut rice. Definitely recommend, the filet cooked...

Love the ambiance and service was efficient and freindly. I ate here weeks ago and gave 5/5 stars for food, we ordered 6 items. This time was not as good. Ordered the Szechuan shrimp, described as crispy, w/chili oil, soy and garlic flavors.... But the prawns weren't crispy at all and the sauce tasted like slightly sweet ketchup. Very disappointed, 1/5. The sea bass was outstanding but the calamari appetizer was just average. Will still come back to get my other favorites...
