Looking for a nice place to enjoy a wonderful meal? Restaurant critic Merrill Shindler offers another recommendation.
in The Commons at Calabasas is several decades newer, you can feel those eons of experience; this is a family that knows how to serve, and they know their way around our fishy friends.
I guess you could pretend that King’s is ocean-adjacent, though that will take a tad of imagination with the hills of West Valley around you. But within, the place is downright old school fish house, with a terrific Cajun oyster bar on one side, part of the cocktail lounge.
And to wash it all down in the lounge, along with classic shellfish platters, there are classic cocktails. Not a lot of frou-frou among the Old Fashioned, the Bardstown Buck, the Gordon’s Cup, the Pimm’s Cup, the “Perfect” Manhattan and more. The beers are many, but not too many. Ditto the wines, though a little Sancerre and Viognier would be appreciated; they go so well with shellfish.
The baked PEI blue mussels are about as good as mussels get. The crispy calamari crackles. The crab cakes are double-sized. And as a counterpoint, it’s hard to resist the grilled Castroville artichoke; I have a thing for artichokes, which is strange, feeling passion for a thistle.
