    The only dish that was so so was the carrots appetizer. Interesting concept but did not work. Table next to us agreed. everything else was fantastic! Had pasta with ground duck which was phenomenal and the dourade or bream fish and ny strip were perfect. Note that the potato cloud served with the steak was a very small portion. Everything was served in a way that was easy to share with the table. Loukomades or Greek beignets for desert also delicious if a bit more dense than regular beignets. Pricey but definitely value for money. Will return.

    I highly recommend King’s Fish House. The service was outstanding and the food was great. My husband accidentally spilled his wine on the table and everyone from our waiter to the manager were quick to respond, clean our mess, and give a refill. They had wait staff come by frequently to ensure we were doing well and the seafood was fresh and delicious. Keep up the good work, we’ll definitely be back.

    We planned a visit here some months ago but it took a while to organize. So very glad we persevered! Beautiful food and wine served by knowledgeable and friendly chefs and servers. If you are Ok with a fixed menu then you will love this elegant Korean/European/Asian food. (The wonderful but now defunct Michelin-starred Al's Place in San Francisco came to mind.) The atmosphere is relaxed and convivial. Prices not cheap but reasonable. We will certainly be back to try another month's offerings.

    We arrived late for a birthday dinner for my elderly mother, and Armando and staff could not have been more accommodating and friendly. Truly kind and warm in every little interaction—made my mom feel very tended to and seen, which is not always the case. Armando reminded me about parking validation which I would have completely forgotten. The decor/atmosphere was really cute with the round booths and overhead planters. And our meals were good - both the pasta primavera and fish tacos - and not absurdly expensive. Overall a great option if you’re headed to a show at the convention / performing arts centers right next door.
