20 Best Seafood Restaurants in Visalia

“This Poke Point restaurant is worth experiencing. I like white rice and french fries with chicken and octopus. The sauce just makes the dish more delicious.“

“Ever since I first had California Fish Grill’s fried Swai, I’ve enjoyed eating here. Since finding that they have grilled mahi mahi on the menu, I am loving the place even more. If you have never had mahi mahi, I HIGHLY recommend it. Mahi Mahi is a mild, flaky, white meat fish. It’s from the tropics and, to date, is only wild caught. If you like halibut, you’ll like mahi mahi. I prefer it with the garlic butter as I really want to taste the delicate flavor of the fish. Don’t miss this local Visalia, CA eatery. If you like fish, it’s a must!“

“Excellent seafood! My favorite is the camerones el mojo de ajo (shrimp with garlic & butter). You get a lot of shrimp and it is well prepared.“

“From the service to the entrees all was worth it“

“Awesome atmosphere and even better food and drinks!“

“Best seafood ever!!!! Every thing was great!!“

“Tried this spot for the first time last night on a whim, and it absolutely delivered.

We showed up around 7:30 thinking they closed at 9, but they actually closed at 8. Even so, they welcomed us in, seated us, and never once made us feel rushed. That alone deserves appreciation—especially knowing what it’s like to try to close down a business properly.

Walking in feels like stepping back into the 90s—in a good way. CRT TVs mounted up high, classic decor. Nothing fancy, but honestly, if it works, it works.

Chips and salsa came out immediately. Chips were hot and crispy, and the salsa had a nice underlying kick. Second round came just as fast.

Now the food.

I ordered the Fajita Mar y Tierra after seeing (and smelling) someone else’s plate. Easily one of the most flavorful Mexican dishes I’ve had in Visalia since moving here in summer 2025. Shrimp, steak, and chicken were all cooked perfectly, each with its own distinct flavor. The peppers and onions were tender and soaked up all that flavor, but surprisingly, the tomatoes were the standout—I don’t even like tomatoes, and I wanted more. Perfectly cooked and charred.

Rice and beans were exactly what you want—well-seasoned and not dry. The guacamole tasted freshly made with just the right hint of citrus. Flour tortillas were clearly homemade and excellent—I got two and immediately wished I had more. Even the side salad came with a house-made ranch that was legit.

My wife had the Burrito Express Con Pollo. It came covered in green sauce—which she normally avoids—but this one changed her mind. She kept saying how flavorful it was and wished there was more of it. The shredded chicken was tender and packed with flavor.

Service was attentive, friendly, and felt genuinely welcoming. It seems like a family-run place, and it shows in the care they put into everything.

Bottom line: Don’t judge this place by the decor. Come for the food. It’s probably the best Mexican food in Visalia.“

“Had the grilled salmon. Excellent.“

“We’re visiting from San Antonio, Texas, and yesterday was our first time eating here.
The food was delicious and fresh! We had the fish-and-shrimp plate. We’re returning this afternoon for lunch before heading back home this evening.“

“The shrimp fried rice was great. Both the shrimp pho and seafood pho were amazing! Will definitely go back!“

“The other day, I had this woman walk up to me, as I was eating my taco lunch at work. She said, “I see you like tacos! You should let me make you some, I make them with homemade tortillas! I told myself when I was younger, that I would have a restaurant one day and I would make my tacos with handmade tortillas only, and now I do! You should come see me.” It just so happened that my sister and I had been messaging about giving my husband the heart shaped platter of tacos. I immediately text her and said, “I found my lady! Her name is Lupe!” I told her what Lupe had told me and how I just knew I had to have her do this for him! Fast forward to today- Valentine’s Day! I forgot to call yesterday and I called kind of late this morning! 9:54am to be exact! I knew as soon as the person on the other line answered, that it was her! I told her I knew this was probably way too late to order but if there was any way she could, would she still be able to? I didn’t want to stress her or her crew out. She didn’t even hesitate! She said, “Tell me your idea and I’ll do my best to make it happen!” She said she’d Never had this kind of request but was up for the challenge. To be honest, I thought this was going to be a basic rectangular sheet pan with the tacos presented in a heart shape! I was okay with that! To my surprise, I walked in and was caught by complete surprise! Not only did they find a heart shaped box, in this town with Zero Valentines supply, so it seemed, they had even included the roses. ☺️ She included 8 Chicken, 8 Asada, 8 Al Pastor tacos, all the fixings, including some delicious red and green salsa. My husband and kiddo enjoyed the spicey red, while my mom and I enjoyed the flavorful green with a hint of spice. Fresh chips and guacamole, just made it complete! 🤤 Thank you, Lupe, for taking this on so last minute! Thank you, for going the extra mile to make it special and complete! We absolutely enjoyed it as we celebrated my husband today! We will see you soon! ♥️“

“Visited for the first time tonight, was instantly greeted and helped by a gentleman who was very patient with my partner and I. We both ordered regular bowls with marinated tuna and they tasted incredible, food was super fresh. Thank you, we will be back:-)“

“Long John Silver's, Still one of the best Fish around along with their other sea food platers & their chicken planks & some great french fries along with their coleslaw also! Thank you & keep up the great job along with the Fish! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'s 💯%+ This was 2 years ago.“

“Me encanta el filete relleno de pescado ! Deliciousssss“

“We had brunch at The Ranch for our first visit. It has been beautifully remodeled and very cool! There is a main restaurant area, bar area & fireside room to watch the action in the kitchen. Not a large restaurant so I would highly recommend making a reservation. The service was very good! We shared the Pho Ranch Dip. It is an Asian flair on a French dip and best I can recall in a long time. We also loved the French fries. We were on our way to visit friends so it was a lite lunch but very delicious!! Can't wait to go back and experience more! Highly recommend!“

“They all closed down on the East Coast but was pleasantly surprised to find plenty on the West coast. The waiter was amazing. Food was nostalgic! Restaurant was clean. The garlic toast was amazing and he brought me extras. Swapped out the Steak for chicken and had a lobster tail.“

“great food prices are good and the service is excellent if you don't believe me come in and spend your money support our local businesses Visalia strong❤️“

“Sauce was excellent, Shrimp was a good size. Good and messy, finger licking good“

“The staff was amazing, as was the food. If you haven't been I highly recommend going whether you do the bbq or the pho.“
