    This trendy market in Newport Beach's Balboa Peninsula offers a wide array of fresh fish-everything from yellowtail, mahi mahi and opah to thresher shark, ling cod and catfish-as well as shellfish. Read more

    Lots of fresh fish, many different ways to cook, great variety. We enjoyed fresh Atlantic Salmon salad, and a fish taco, both excellent. Worth a stop. Beautiful plaza, fun shops!

    Best fish tacos and salsa. We just happened upon it, and there was a line out the door. Well worth the wait. Can't go wrong with anything here. And just blocks from the beach for after you eat.

    Literally everything is good. I'm a huge fan of the shrimp burrito and the fish tacos. The daily specials are always great, as well. All in all, you can't go wrong here.

    The burrito with panko whitefish is yummy. Poke and chips good too. Bbq oyster was mediocre so skip. Get a table out back in sun

    Poke Salad with chips is a must. Variety of bottled hot sauces (I.e. Tapatio, siracha ..) are found throughout the place :)

    Fresh fish with great flavor. Go for Cajun grilled halibut or Scottish salmon. We were disappointed it came out cold though.

    Good combination of tuna and salmon poke with guac, salsa, and chips. The poke burrito was decent. Overall great vibe but pricey pricey.

    A little disappointed today. The place was full of dirty tables. Hard to find a place to set that was clean. Clam chowder was full of potatoes and little clams. Tacos just broke apart, tough to eat
