Encinitas Fish Shop

TM★★★★★

The fish shop in Encinitas delivered a consistently impressive meal from start to finish. The red snapper set the tone—lightly crisp on the outside, tender and flaky inside, and seasoned in a way that let the natural flavor of the fish come through. It tasted genuinely fresh, the kind of freshness you only get when seafood hasn’t been sitting around. The poke bowl kept that same standard. The fish had a clean, buttery texture, and the bowl leaned more on quality ingredients than heavy sauces. Everything tasted balanced: warm rice with the right texture, toppings that added crunch and brightne

The food was delish and so was the service. The only issue was their pet policy. We chose to eat inside because their policy was no dogs allowed inside. However, that wasn’t the case because there was a couple who sat inside with their dog. The dog was cute, but we would’ve ordered takeout instead. The server passed the dog when she picked up our dishes and not a word was said. This was our first visit.

This place made me so happy! Half laid-back bar, half cute seafood counter so you can pick your fish and style it your way. We sat outside with our pup, enjoyed crispy coconut shrimp, and devoured the fish and chips (snapper was my fave). Sweet, crunchy, beachy perfection. I already know what I’m trying next time: surf and turf tacos!

Had some fish tacos and my friend had the sea bass plate. Her kid had the kids meal of coconut shrimp and we shared the onion rings. All and all, it was a fine meal. Nice staff. You order at the counter.
