The interiors have been thoughtfully curated with simple elegance and relaxation in mind, adorned with classic Americana maritime décor to reflect the restaurant’s modest roots and draw in the essence of the sea.

Welcoming Wine Lovers with Open Arms

What sets King’s Fish House apart even more is its notable no corkage fee policy, a gesture that underscores the restaurant’s philosophy of shared joy and community. This has been particularly appealing for us, as it allows us to pair our favorite wines with the delectable seafood items without any extra cost. On our last visit, we brought along a bottle of 2020 Adelsheim Chardonnay, a refreshingly acidic yet balanced wine which paired nicely with the Oysters and Lobster tails we dined on that evening. We believe that this additional courtesy to wine lovers like ourselves not only elevates the King’s dining experience but also fosters a sense of belonging among its patrons at any of their establishments.

In sum, King’s Fish House stands as an oasis for seafood enthusiasts and wine lovers alike, offering a harmonious blend of quality, innovation, and hospitality.
