Water grill is very good. I didn’t do a big, full meal just appetizers. Pricey. Unbeatable location sunset views. Abundant excellent seafood. 4 stars; not 5.

My husband and I had a wonderful lunch. We started with the Crab Cake and Clam Chowder. I had the Big Eye Tuna and he had the Cod lunch special. Very attentive service from all employees.

Considering the glowing reviews, I must say I was fairly disappointed with this place. At 5:45pm at least half of the dishes we ordered were no longer available, including lobster, crab legs, and even ice cream. Seared bigeye tuna entre was exceedingly spicy and not edible. Server was oblivious to our questions. Also no table cloths for such high end restaurant. Overall poor experience. Will not come again and would not recommend.

Top notch, memorable; extensive wine list as are all King's Seafood restaurants. Try the black cod entree. It will blow your mind.
