House of Big Fish & Ice Cold Beer

For OC Restaurant Week this year, we went to House of Big Fish & Ice Cold Beer in Laguna. It is run by the same people as K’ya Bistro, so we had high expectations. Unfortunately, we made reservations for Saturday lunch, and apparently there was a parade going on. Now, it’s not fun to find parking in Laguna. Add in beautiful weather, a weekend and a parade, and it was just a disaster. We almost gave up, but fortunately, we were able to make our way to the underground parking lot (look for the blue and white “Connection” parking sign) and they validate for 1.5 hours. Plus, the guy that was there was like the friendliest parking attendant I have ever encountered.

We shared tilapia and fish & chips. The tilapia also came with a cup of clam chowder.

We were debating whether to order a kid’s meal too, but these two entrees were plenty for our entire family. (n barely counts, though, since he was mostly interested in the butter packets and fries). Surprisingly, k liked the tilapia. Who knew? The fish and chips were not greasy, but very filling. We did not parktake in the “ice cold beer” but I’ve read that this place gets pretty lively at night. Daytime was perfectly fine for kids, though.

The restaurant is on the second floor, and overlooks PCH and the ocean. k and n had fun looking down at the street.

For some reason, n wanted to walk around with his hands in his pockets.
