The food was absolutely delicious. Tried the ceviche tacos as an appetizer, they were super fresh. Had the garlic noodles, Robata ribeye, and a few rolls (one with crispy onions on top) amazing!

I hadn't been to Spaggi's in 20 years. Not sure why I waited. I was meeting 2 friends from high school. Each of us enjoyed our entries. The restaurant was beautifully decorated for the holidays. Service was very attentive. A great evening. Will be back soon.

Had a lovely evening at Veuve Noire. Was a very romantic and high end ambience. I’ve never been in a place like that, where the actual bar was offset from the rest of the restaurant and had a separate entrance where they escort you in. It added to the mystique and fun. My romantic date and I enjoyed the service, drinks and appetizers (you have to try the bacon wrapped dates!). It came up as one of the best romantic bars in Rancho Cucamonga when I did my search and I would definitely agree that it is. Made for a very nice date.

This was our first visit. We were celebrating my son's birthday. We were one of the first guests as the restaurant opened on a Friday night. We were unhappy with the initial table we were given, so we asked for a booth, and the host happily obliged. The restaurant was decorated for the holidays and there was a singer. Excellent server and food. Portions were larger than expected; steaks were cooked to perfection. My son said the Baklava was the best he ever had.

Rancho Cucamonga

About the restaurant

Established in 2005, King’s Fish House is Rancho Cucamonga’s choice for seafood. Located in Victoria Gardens, 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.

My experience eating at King’s Fish House exceeded our expectations. I started my dining with spicy clam chowder, then moved to the oyster sampler. My entree was Sea Bass. Everything was delicious and seasoned to taste. The four of us enjoyed our dinner and will be back soon.
