Cal Fish N Fish

OMG! great restaurant. The food was excellent and the service was awesome. We ordered the crakes, ahi tuna poke, salad, ship taco, and trout with fries. all the food was delicious. I live in Encino so this place is a jewel. Cant wait to go back.

Really considering writing the owner a nasty letter. How can you bring me THE best fish place in the area only to take away my happiness within a month? RUDE. Come back, my whole office building needs you!

Omg… what happen to my favorite restaurant? I was there 3 weeks ago. The food the presentation and the service are excellent. The chef is a very nice guy, He went to our table and offer something. We are sad that the restaurant is closed. Thank u Cal Fish and Fish.

Cal Fish N Fish, what happened? I though we had a good thing going. I thought you were going to make it.
We have only seen each other once! I’m heartbroken. How I long for your fantastic Crab Cakes, Fried Fish and Shrimp again!
I had to see for myself, see if it was true. Yes, there was a sign in your window reading for circumstances beyond our control we are forced to close our doors until further notice. No!
I hope you do come back someday in the near future. Good luck and farewell for now Cal Fish N Fish. You will be missed.
Sincerely,
The Fat Man that loves fried food.

I did take out to try this new restaurant two weeks ago and ordered trout. The trout was so delicious that I ordered it again the next night! I ordered it without the Cajun Seasoning and with the herb sauce on the side. Truthfully, I didn’t need the sauce it tasted so good… plus ilooked like it was grilled by any fine restaurant and still moist. I have to admit I was so pleasantly surprised since I didn’t know if it would taste more like fast food. They give you a generous portion of two pices which is great. The coleslaw that came with the fish was very fresh and very tasty since they put these little nuts in it. The brown was maybe a tiny bit dry but it was still very good with the fish. The side salad was very fresh. Oh, they even give you garlic bread that is good. All in all meal was amazing. I read a review that the fish tasted frozen and I couldn’t believe it. I am very particular and thought the trout tasted fresh, not frozen. I am so excited that this fish restaurant has come to our neighborhood. Don’t miss going here!

We stopped at this new neighborhood restaurant for dinner. We were pleasantly surprised by the food, the service and the prices! Definitely worth trying if you like fish, but they had other items also. We are definitely going back since I hate cooking fish at home and dinner was delicious ! We haven’t had a casual, good fish restaurant in the neighborhood for a while. r1

It was a pleasant surprise to find this jewel of restaurant.
I had grilled (I love everything grilled) Trout and brown rice. The fish was perfectly seasoned and so delicious. I also had a small bowl of clam chowder. I loved it so much that I asked for a large order of clam chowder to go for my dad.
The server was very friendly and efficient.
I definitely will come back for more.

Ok so I don’t normally write these reviews but this place is simply too wonderful not to!
Let me just start by saying, right when you walk through the doors you’re welcomed by smiling faces and such a friendly environment. Last night I came in with my husband and son. We have wanted a fish restaurant in the area for a while now and were pleased to see one finally open!
We started with the hot night roll I think it was called, so TASTY!
My husband had the trout with garlic butter sauce, the fish was so flaky, fresh, and perfectly cooked!
I had the Cajun ahi salad and it was delicious. I am a huge fan of lightly seared tuna and this was done perfectly. The prices are so reasonable in regards to the quantity and quality of the food you get.
Everything came out so quick and the service was beyond professional. There is also this convenient little button on the table that you can push if you need any service. (my son had fun with that!) The restaurant is extremely clean and nicely decorated.
Honestly this place is our new favorite… Will definitely return!

My husband and I were looking forward to this place opening the moment we saw the sign, grilled fish. I don’t know where their grilled fish was! My husband ordered the trout and I had the «giant» shrimp. The trout was supposedly cajun blackened style. It consisted of two filets of what looked like a frozen breaded product, had almost no spice, and was soggy and unappetizing. My so-​called giant shrimp was very ordinary sized, and also had been frozen. Nothing was grilled. Rice was cheap and not good. Entire meal was bad, the worst we have had in a long time.
We also ordered the shrimp cocktail. Terrible! Tiny shrimp, soggy, previous frozen, blah cocktail sauce, unacceptable quality.
The service people were friendly and tried their best, but they were not professional and did not understand restaurant service.
The meal was also served on small lunch-​sized plates. Since the shrimp was one of the most expensive items on the menu, you would expect at least a dinner sized plate for serving. Also the garlic bread was soggy and soft and not at all tasty. Save yourself a disappointing time and try another place.
Too bad too, we both love grilled fish and really miss the place that used to be around the corner with great mesquite grilled fish dishes, often with nice specials. This place will be gone in 6 months.

Tried this place and did not like it at all. As soon as I looked at the menu I noticed it was the same style as another restaurant called Fish Dish. Did not like it at all, Fish Dish is way better. Come on be origional and don’t copy another restaurant.

They just opened a few days ago, and it was so terrific I already have been there twice!
I went for lunch one day and had the Seared Cajun Tuna with salad. absolutely delicious! Super fresh, large portion, great service. My friend is gluten intolerant and they were very accommodating. My husband & I went back a few days later for dinner. I had the grilled lemon/​oregano Trout with sauteed vegetables and my husband had grilled Catfish with garlic butter served with rice. Again. large portions and great service. Lots to choose from the menu including special dishes for children. The entire restaurant has been remodeled and very nice & clean. I hope you will give this place a visit, i know you will love it as much as i do!

We tried Cal Fish for the firs time tonight. And my whole family liked it very much. My husband and I ate the Cat fish plate. It was pretty good. My son had the popcorn shrimp and he liked it a lot. The service was pretty good. We did order it to go and it was ready in 15 min.

Simply delish!
I just picked up dinner for the hubs and I, and we were both very pleased! He said his grilled salmon was perfect and the coleslaw was very good. I had grilled Snapper (although I usually prefer it fried) and french fries and was quite pleased. We’ll def be back and so glad we have a tasty seafood restaurant in the area! Welcome to Encino Cal Fish N Fish!

Just had lunch with my parents at this new fish joint. We had the salmon linguine, clam chowder, mahi mahi tacos and grilled swordfish oh and fried calamari appetizer. Everything tasted very fresh and healthy as their menu claimed. Here’s the order from great to just ok. Calamari, salamon linguine, chowder, tacos and lastly the grill swordfish. Don’t get me wrong even the swordfish was really fresh and it is a difficult fish to prepare in general so anyway all in all I really like this place and it will be my my go to fish place and is worth a try.
