WORST RESTAURANT WITH UNBELIEVABLY TERRIBLE SERVICE... LOW CLASS!!!!!! NEGATIVE 5 STARS!!!! – Talk about a DISSAPOINTMENT!!!!! I recently had dinner this past weekend on Friday! The restaurant was not even busy when I was seated upstairs. I was greeted by a young short girl who happened to be my server. I never would have guessed because after the initial greeting we weren't attended for 15 minutes. The server must have passed our table over 4 - 5 times before we were able to put in our order. The table we were seated at was... read more

Great Food New Orleans style fresh seafood was great. I enjoyed the Fire grill Ono and my husband had the Salmon. We tried the oysters for appetizer and a salad. Everything was wonderful from the food to the friendly staff. Great bar w/ specialty drinks.

Oyster Bar! I love Kingfish in san mateo, It's in a prime location w/plenty of parking. There's an oyster bar downstairs & plenty of tables & private rooms for larger parties. The food is awesome, the portions are huge! There's something on the menu for everyone.

NOT A PLACE FOR INFANTS/ TODDLERS – Although the food was average - the customer service received from the manager/ owner was just bottom line RUDE. My family and I were dining and I wanted to change my 1.5 year old son's soiled diaper. There was not changing table available so I then spoke to the manager/ owner to see if he could accomodate us (we were in the middle of dining). He actually suggested I change my son a shelf located in the women's bathroom - ABSOLUTELY NOT - after literally arguing with him - he finally put t... read more

Avoid if you want any kind of service. – My roommate and I went this past saturday night. No tables were available, so we went up to the second floor and sat at the bar. It took about 10 minutes to even get the bartenders attention. Once our drinks were done, we were seated in the upstairs dining area, but since all we got was really slow service upstairs, we decided to find a seat at the downstairs bar. We sat there for (I kid you not) 15 minutes, and no one came over to take a drink or dinner order. The bartender did not e... read more

Not the same as is it once was – Since new owners have taken over Kingfish, it's not the same consistent, good experience it once was. They've removed/changed signature dishes that are not close to being as good as they once were--the signature cabbage salad is now boring and tasteless where it once was a taste explosions in the mouth. Our group agreed that they must have made changes to cut costs, but it's certainly not at the level it used to be.....and that's not even talking about the service. We were on a bit of a tight... read more

Save room for dessert! – Great food and great service! I recommend making reservations because this place gets pretty crowded. Great place for family dinners or a night out w/ friends. Try the Cosmo, you won't regret it, but save room for dessert. To die for!

Great food and ambience – Went there with a group of six on a week night. They were busy but they have a nice bar area where we waited. Service was good and the food was excellent. Several of us had the seared tuna and it was to die for.
