“ We ordered: large plate with half salmon half ahi poke and black beans + sautéed vegetables for the sides (top). & large plate with halibut and mixed greens + sautéed vegetables for the sides. Food was amazing as always. I love the sautéed vegetables with the Tommy sauce. And the fish is always so fresh. ”
“ Enjoyed a late Sunday lunch and was satisfied as I always am with bear flag! The small fish plate is the perfect size for a meal that doesn't leave you uncomfortable. The red snapper was delicious - great bite, mild flavor and perfectly cooked. I also had the salad and brown rice for sides. The salad had great fresh veggies and some edamame. The smokey salsa and the cream sauce were delicious and went well with the fish and rice - not that the fish needed it. Service is always quick and staff friendly. ”
“ Delicious and fresh poke- the poke bowl menu is separate from their main menu though, you'll see it on the side of the cash registers, although it was a little confusing since it's not on their main menu. Casual spot with quick service. Parking might be tricky, but there is free 30 minute street parking nearby if you wanted to order to-go. ”
“ Got a 1/2 lb of tuna and 1/2 lb of salmon poke after a day of walking around Lido Marina Village and it was such a great meal. The poke comes with chips and the crunchiness pairs with the fresh fish so well. The poke is so flavorful and I could probably finish one pound by myself if I wanted to. The area where this restaurant is located is so nice and the vibes are so much better when the weather is warm and sunny. ”
“ I moved out of the area a few years ago and was back in town and had to get my Bear Flag fix ! I ordered a small side of sautéed mixed vegetables and the specialty burrito with Salmon/white rice (Tommy sauce on the side) please! If you get a burrito they are delicious and STUFFED, so in terms of sauce to burrito ratio I recommend asking for 2 sides of the Tommy sauce. Customer service is great and plenty of seating options. Great casual spot to grab dinner. My friends got poke and shrimp and loved theirs as well. I was too hungry to take photos...so sorry the phone did not eat first today ”
“ The food at Bear Flag is always amazing. I've been going to Bear Flag since 2007 or 2008 and I've never been disappointed. Each time a new location pops up, I am excited that more people will get to enjoy the fantastic food from Bear Flag. ”
“ The ahi tuna was delicious and I would come back solely for that. The bowl I ordered was good, but I didn't love the salmon. I'm not sure if it lacked flavor or if the ahi tuna was just so much better but next time I will get all tuna. I also enjoyed the chili garlic flakes and I recommend for anyone who gets a poke bowl. My fiancée ordered the La bamba roll, which was solid but nothing special. It is on the expensive side ($58 total for about 4 items) but definitely high quality, delicious fresh fish ”
“ My favorite seafood in OC. I recommend the tuna poke, guac, seaweed salad. It makes a great bite on a chip, trust me, and add a little Tommy sauce. The tacos and burritos are also solid but a bit heavy, depends what you're looking for a in a meal. Everyone there is super friendly and can help you with the menu. I love the vibe, and seating (you order and sit down). I'd like to try the sushi too sometime soon. ”
“ Still as good and fresh as always! I've been coming here for almost a decade now and quality never disappoints. It's definitely become a lot busier over the years but I will always stop by to get my poke fix if I'm in the area! ”
