Established in 2000, King’s Fish House is San Diego’s choice for seafood. Located in Mission Valley on Camino De La Reina, King’s Fish House features a large selection of fresh oysters, seasonal catches, sushi and live shellfish, including lobster and crab, on a menu that changes daily.

We’ve been in restaurants a little while – three generations, to be precise. A long time ago, we embarked on a road trip in search of the ultimate seafood experience. We traveled down highways and byways, pulled up a seat, put on bibs and soaked up the seafood experience: the no-name dishes with unforgettable flavor, the fresh-caught oysters and clams piled high, the hand-lettered specials on ancient chalkboards and the savory simmer of every combination of spices imaginable.

Welcome to the House that Seafood Built.

Come gather with us, celebrate, relax and enjoy a seafood dining experience of high quality, comfort, service and value.

We've always had great dining experiences with King's. We were bummed that there are only 2 locations here in San Diego. We used to frequent the location by Otay Ranch Mall, but either way, we are still able to make it to Mission Valley. Food and service was great. Especially our server, Carlos! He went above and beyond to help us with our dining experience.

Great evening. Great food and friendly staff. A little rushed at the end of our meal. One person was still eating when the waiter asked about dessert. Could have paced a bit better. But we will go back.

Excellent lunch on the patio with our small dog. Our server Ashley was very friendly and knowledgeable. The food was surprisingly good for a restaurant in a shopping center. Sand dabs were excellent and a sushi roll was similarly tasty. We will return!

Our server Taylor was friendly and accommodating. We had a wonderful lunch with our family. Great food selection and huge servings. We enjoyed the fresh bread with butter, appetizers: crispy calamari and blackened shrimp taquitos. Crunchy rolls with clam chowder soup, shrimp bucatini pasta, cioppino, grilled salmon with asparagus, ahi sesame ponzu w/brussel sprouts and finally a complimentary key lime pie for my bday, which was a nice treat!
