I wanted fish 🐟 and I was happy with the chowder and the bread and smoked albacore so much I went again and had the halibut lunch. Both of my servers were very good and they got me all the lemon and butter I wanted. Please come and try it for yourself.

Husband loved this place, so I fell in love. Shrimp and scallop skewers are always so juicy and tender. I have never been served rubbery seafood. The smoked fish appetizer is good as well as the clam chowder. I do wish they would add New England style because I like the taste of it.

Red clam chowder for lunch to go. They have these CROUTONS that you sprinkle on top ( these CROUTONS are 1 of a kind ) delicious! Also the fresh bread loaf with real butter 🧈.
We will probably have lunch from here weekly it was so good. So delish on a rainy day. The fresh bread 🍞 is the best I've ever tasted ( I leave it double paper bagged overnight/. And the next day it has the perfect crunch with butter. Best bread ever!!!!!!!!

Delightful seafood restaurant with sea shanty decor. The food is good and has been consistent for decades. Food is served on paper plates so you don't have to be concerned about if the plate was washed properly.

Excellent clam chowder and seafood restaurant.
Same goodness as the one in Newport Beach
We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch here! This place is casual and relaxed with friendly service. The blue plate special is a a definite deal. All of their prices are reasonable. It was the best red clam chowder I’ve ever tasted. Even their black coffee was good.
Salmon, halibut, rest shell fish.
If you want a classic Orange County seafood experience, go to the Crab Cooker. Their food is delicious. I love their scallops on a skewer. They are perfectly cooked and spaced with bacon, and their romano potatoes are perfection. The Crab Cooker has been in business for more than 60 years and there's a reason why.
