You know what it isn't: expensive and pretentious. All are contrary to the fact House of Big Fish & Ice Cold Beer is located in Laguna Beach, where it's rare to find a full meal for $5 and rarer still to find one in a restaurant that serves seafood. If you get only one thing, let it be the... More »
