31 Best Seafood Restaurants in Orange

“A wonderful hidden gem. I had seen the signs and flags out for this place countless times but never stopped in as this shopping center isn't the easiest to access and definitely needs some work on the outside. However, on the inside, the restaurant is clean, bright, and everyone was super friendly. Went with the two taco combo with fried shrimp and fried fish and both were ridiculously good. The free chips were a nice addition and all the salsas at the salsa bar were very tasty - the one chili oil salsa is especially dangerous! :) Will definitely be going back quite often.“

“Todo está bien sabroso ,nos quedamos satisfechos,lo súper recomendamos a todos ,vengan a probar la rica comida Mexicana“

“My order was taken by Javier (the cook) assuring that my order was to my liking. Ordered a half pound of crawfish served with two generous slices of lemon & a side of jasmine rice. The flavors are there and the price is nice. There was care in packaging to assure no spillage as this was a to go order. Will be dining again.“

“The fish and chips are really good, fantastic quality! The mini popcorn shrimp were ok, a little burnt and looked nothing like the photo advertised but the spicy cocktail sauce saved it for sure. Will be going back specifically for the hush puppies.“

“First time there it was delicious got the double lobster tails with mac & cheese. And asparagus“

“Out of every single sushi I have tried, not a single one fails to disappoint me. Their crab meat is the best and it does not get better than theirs. Such low prices for VERY high quality and savory foods. Their poki bowls are the best too. Hot warm rice mixed with fresh cold seafood goes perfect with any weather. Especially when it is so savory and refreshing. The prices are shocking for how high quality their food is. Regarding prices, this place has the best seafood out of every single seafood place I have tried in all of Orange and in general. The variety of food is good, the small place is cute, I love the decorations, they are welcoming and their lighting is pretty, it is cozy. The people are always so kind when taking your order. When there is no one, your food comes quickly, very fast for the amount of workers.“

“The atmosphere is relaxing and welcoming, making it the perfect place to unwind and enjoy a meal. The food was delicious, the service was excellent loved our servers Helen and Jason they made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. Everyone was so friendly and attentive throughout our visit. I'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for great food and an even better dining experience!“

“If you take nothing else away from this review, just know that these are the best tortillas in town. All hand-made and it has this amazing chewy and soft consistency…almost akin to (dare I say) mochi. I don’t generally care what tortillas my tacos are served with but that’s what I noticed most.

The carne asada and adobada were well-seasoned/marinated and flavorful. Their salsa roja was delicious and they even have an amazing habanero salsa to give you that extra kick!

Lastly, service is always great. I usually come Sunday nights and the gentlemen there is always serving with a smile. Orange County has countless options for tacos, but in our embarrassment of riches, sometimes you just don’t want to go “far” to get them. This is one of the few taco shops in the 2-3 mile radius (😂) canyon area of North Orange/Anaheim Hills border and I believe it is one of the best kept secrets. It is my new regular taco spot!“

“My favorite place to go eat when i visit my family in Santa Ana. I usually get their Fish platter. With black beans, rice, and Ensenada style fish. Ive tried their grilled fish which is actually subpar, definitely their worse style. Blackened is good, but Ensenada style is where its at.“

“I have been receiving flyers for years now to visit this restaurant and now finally got to go. The lunch specials all looked so good but I settled on the eggplant and added meat. It came with soup, egg roll, and rice. The food was very good and the service was excellent. i look forward to coming here again the decor was really nice and give you something to appreciate while you wait, which did not take long at all.“

“So happy that we discovered this great little sushi spot. Everything was excellent—extra fresh fish, yummy creative rolls, fantastic friendly service, cold beer, hot tea, and clean comfy chill ambiance. They also have a number of keto low-carb friendly rolls on the menu. Love this place and will definitely be back!“

“Good food good price. Highly recommend.“

“Outstanding experience. The fish was incredibly fresh, the ingredients tasted high quality, and everything was prepared with care. The staff were friendly, efficient, and made the whole visit seamless. Easily one of the best poke spots I’ve tried.“

“🥰 love the salmon plate!!!“

“I love Nava Thai! This is my local go to Thai Spot for both dine in and take out. The food is always fresh, the portions are just right and the service is great. I highly recommend Nava Thai to anyone who is scared to try a new spot. I know how that can be, trust me...you won't be sorry.“

“Wow…all around! Jeff greeted us, Jackie served us. Everyone…down to earth, personable! They were busy this Thursday nite and yet, very, very attentive. RSVP recommended but we Will fed it & scored the last table. Food options, amazing, drinks, soothing! We are definitely coming back with friends! First place that I'm over the head impressed!“

“One of the few authentic Vietnamese restaurants I have found in orange county!“

“Fish and chips is always good, may not be th best that exists but it is very good. Prices are fair a bit more expensive than what I think it is worth but that's the economy in general. Overall I would recommend atleast giving it a try. Staff is always very courteous.“

“First time Great food and exceptional service“

“Lively, bright, and smelling like the grill. TV’s on, salsas lined up, and a steady flow of families and regulars. It feels like a true neighborhood mariscos spot where plates land hot and the pace never really slows.

The Food
I went straight for the carne asada burrito, and it hit all the right notes: warm tortilla with a light griddle char, well-seasoned beef, balanced rice and beans, and enough freshness from the salsa and limes to keep each bite bright. Portions are generous without feeling heavy. The salsa bar helps you tune heat and acidity exactly how you like it.

Service & Atmosphere
Friendly, fast, and no fuss. Orders came out quickly even with a crowd, tables were cleaned between seatings, and the team kept the line moving. Casual, upbeat energy that works for a quick solo bite or a family meal.

“so good 👍 the food exelent, the server so nice,“

“Went here two days ago, and still thinking about how amazing everything here is and when my next opportunity to visit is!!!

First off, the friendly confident customer service from Snaho really made me and my sister feel welcome. She knew what she had to offer and answered all our questions about the menu and specials!

We came here in time for happy hour and I got the ahi poke nachos...best. Nachos. Ever. Crisp, corn tortilla chips with great quality ahi poke and perfect amount of sauce, sides etc etc I could go on forever and ever.

My sister got the fish house salad and we both finished everything (no leftovers everything was to die for!) The hot chai drink is also made homemade from spices in an authentic Indian style. They offer dairy free options as well such as soy and almond milk, even stevia as a sugar alternative!

My sister got another order after being the chicken nachos with black beans. I've got to say Snaho knows what she's doing. The salsa, beans, meat, cheese (she even has dairy free options for cheese as well!! Vegan if you may) is absolutely perfect. Every dish is very well thought out and complements one another.

Will definitely be coming back to the outdoor patio which is pleasant and casual with a full service restaurant style after ordering and paying at the front.

Give this place a try!!!“

“This is the best place to get a prime rib always fresh and this restaurant is open every day �“

“Super fresh Seafood 🦞 🐟 makes for elegantly prepared plates over-loading w/ shrimp or lobster or something else just as tasty. Sopes are amazing. Great menudo...lol. The dishes are served in such an incredible layout no matter the dish. Nice variety of beverages & You will think Ur on 1 of the 7 seas. Very authentic. Nice patio. Well maintained. Nice place to chill out and just hav a slow going delicious meal. ADA Compliance is good. Staff is outstanding. They aim 2 please and usually hit bullseye 🎯 1st try. Have.heard that the Bllood Mary's r rather good. Especially after 3 or 4. Awesome Clamato type drink as well. Beer selection is lean but mean. Actually hav larger selection than thought. That cuz they hav really hard to find beers in USA here. Everything fits to make heck Of a Meal.
We enjoy most everything but 1 in our family is allergic 2 avocados 🥑. Mor 4 Us. But they always go out of way to keep dish and prep in kitchen away from anything potentially dangerous. That's a whole nother level of quality service!
Was really cool when they showed off just how fast they make the Seven Sea's taste so delicious in kitchen area. They r blade masters. Amazing amount of seafood prepared any way You wish. Suggest menu items tho. Mite not seem like it but lots of catering and special occasions have been recommended and totally enjoyable. The presentation is artful. Fyi- This is 1 of last restaurants 2 survive last several decades in Old Town Orange 🍊...cuz has no competition at their level of offerings, quality, intuitive Staff, Super Chefs, & Happy management. It's nice having a wonderful tasting meal run smoothly that helps enhance GoodVibes
...cuz of the Good Peeps that always hav a smile and willingness to help. We etryN the specials and start w/ giant shrimp 🦐 cocktails for each of us & them share a few off menu. Ingredients so fresh it looks like just came off boat. Extremely well known for both seafood and diff kinds of soup. Large servings make already fair price much more of value. Plus it tastes so darn good 👍
Highly Recommend 🤙“

“Old classic American steakhouse. Bartenders are outstanding and pour a good drink not your standard 1 oz. . The Owners Jeff and Steve have greatly improved the place the last several years. I've seen their business increase. The food is very good and competitively priced. Some comments I read earlier that it was overly priced they must go to Denny's a lot. The weekends get packed. Sometimes 1-2 hour wait for dinner. They have entertainment on Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday. They also have great Happy Hour specials M-F. I'm just another happy customer that has been coming in for years.“

“Been coming here for 22 years. Still our favorite sushi place by far ❣️“

“Delicious food and great service. The appetizer, we order garlic edamame and the salmon fried rice cake with the mango sauce, tuna carpaccio, the roll with baby scallops and one with lemon on top… and I gonna tell you, was everything 10/10, fresh with a lot of flavor! Gonna come back for sure!“

“The food is absolutely so fresh and delicious!“

“Great omakase! I finally got to try this place out after having it on my list for a while. We got the 13 piece omakase course ($125). Because we are not at the bar all the nigiri came out at the same time. Whats great about this place is you can see what fish you will be getting. There's also option for 7 and 10 piece omakase as well, so pick your course. We also got the cherry salmon cheeks which was amazing. The skin was nice and crispy and you can taste the grill. Besides omakase, you can also order the nigiris individually. Will definitely come back here again!“

“10 de 10 todo estuvo 💯 en el servicio la comida la atención todo estuvo excelente 🔥🔥🔥“

“Delivery or Dine in, food is always excellent! Workers are very friendly all the time. I’ve never had any problems ordering food. Remember Thai Chili if you are in the neighborhood of Anaheim/Orange area, you’ll never be disappointed ?“
