- AAndrewSan Francisco Bay Area •3 reviews4.0Dined on May 26, 2025We have been to this location several other times. Parking is absolutely atrocious. You're not even able to do a curbside, drop off for handicap. This time was more challenging than usual. The table was not ready when we arrived and took about 20 minutes to be seated. Even though there were many empty tables. I was surprised to see the crab and lobster tanks basically empty. The kind wait staff was not very attentive when placing an order or even getting the check at the end. Napkins and flatware were still not at the table when appetizers arrived. And when they did come, it was a pile of flatware, placed on the table and some paper cocktail napkins. Stating, sorry that is all we have. Even though the adjacent 10+ empty tables had rolled up fabric napkins with flatware on them. These tables remained empty by the time we left. There were a lot fewer patrons when we left, and it was still very difficult to get the check to leave. This was not a great experience for a celebratory meal.More infoKing's Fish House - San JosePrice: Moderate• American• San Jose•4.5
