Seafood Restaurants near Emeryville

“April 7, 2024Server: SurajAn unforgettable dining experience at FOGO de Chao steakhouse! Suraj, our exceptional waiter, elevated our visit with his friendly appearance and excellent service. From the moment we arrived, we were treated to a culinary journey filled with exquisite flavors and perfectly cooked meats. Every bite was a delight, leaving us with full stomachs and hearts full of joy. FOGO de Chao and Suraj truly exceeded our expectations, making it a dining experience we won't soon forget! Highly recommended!EditApril 29, 2024Server: MichaelOn our second visit to Fogo de Chao in Emeryville, we were initially delighted to have Suraj as our server again. The wonderful atmosphere and friendly staff contributed to a great start to our dining experience. However, our satisfaction took a nosedive around 8pm - 9pm when Suraj ended his shift and we were assigned a new server.Unfortunately, the new server fell short of our expectations. He was rude, unprofessional, and seemed more interested in watching the Lakers vs. Nuggets basketball game on TV than attending to our table. Despite our attempts to get his attention, he was inattentive and only came over when prompted for the check. His lack of engagement was evident as he handed us the bill without making eye contact.Moreover, when it came to dessert, he failed to inform us of the options, forcing us to inquire ourselves. Even then, he appeared disinterested and preoccupied with the game. It was disheartening to feel neglected and overlooked as paying customers.To add insult to injury, the table next to us had a similar experience, with the same server demonstrating the same lack of professionalism. His focus on the basketball game was so apparent that one of the diners had to make a remark about it.Overall, it was disappointing to have such a unsatisfactory service experience, especially considering our previous positive encounters with Suraj. We left feeling frustrated and dissatisfied, questioning why we should reward such inadequate service with a tip.Parking: Finding parking was fairly easy! Simply scan the QR code provided on the wall of the garage and enjoy hassle-free paid parking. Convenience at your fingertips!Kid-friendliness: Our one-year-old loved it here! No tears, just smiles. This was our second visit and it was such a joy to see her happily exploring.“

“When your clients decide on Liholiho Yacht Club as the place to meet to design their future wedding rings ?Food is communal by nature, as a result, I was amazed by the fruitfulness our meeting yielded — as we departed, our spirits soared with inspiration and excitement for what’s to come ?“

“Amazing service and food!!!!“

“Amazing food and wine, great view“

“Great restaurant and also picturesque“

“This a place to visit,great food and service“

“Really great! Nelson the Gaucho was friendly and very attentive. Will come back“

“Was there to celebrate these two nuptials. The food was OUT OF THIS WORLD !!!!! That bread …..that bread …..DAYUM!!!!! Thank you for an amazing experience“

“What an amazing culinary experience! We had a three course meal. The waiter was very helpful, friendly and had great recommendations! I highly recommend this place if you're in San Francisco!“

“We had the seafood platter, t bone, brine pork chop, fish and lots of sides. But stop at the bar and get the popcorn. It has a nice truffle flavor. Go with an empty stomach. Lots of good.“

“This mid-priced Sardinian restaurant has a lot of charm with only small flaws. When you step in, you'll find a charming compact dining area with a loud buzz of conversation. It can be hard to hear others at a table of four and I wish the restaurant had more noise dampening. Service was kind but our water glasses sat empty for too much of the meal, considering the number of servers for the handful of tables.The pork sauce gnochetti was intensely savory and had the perfect texture. My table shared some Sardinian flatbread and olives, which were as expected. The lamb tenderloin was excellent, but I wish there were more vegetables to accompany it. The roe spaghetti was excellent with interesting flavors throughout. And the whole prawns came in a generous serving, also perfectly cooked.Vegetarian options: There's a strong focus on seafood with meat dishes. There are a handful of vegetarian dishes but not a large selection. It would be hard to find vegan options.Parking: You might have to park around the block, and larger cars will struggle to find suitable spots.Kid-friendliness: The atmosphere is casual enough for children above toddler age, but you may have to ask an advance about simple dishes as there are only a few that picky eaters would enjoy.Wheelchair accessibility: The tables are tightly spaced and the restaurant can be slightly crowded. If there are only 1-2 people with wheelchairs, staff might be able to reserve a table with space to wheel around. Without planning ahead, there may be difficulties.“

“So happy my daughter recommended T'Chaka for dinner last week. Upon our arrival, we were greeted warmly by one of the partners. The staff were exceptional and interacted with my 7 year old who made sure to inform them she was "half Haitian" and would "come back if the food was good". She gave everything a raving 10 out of 10 and I really concur! Full stomach, bleached bones and more to carry home!Kid-friendliness: Staff is so nice (the chef came out to talk to my 7 year old to ask how she rated the food) that my 7 year old commented how different they were from other eateries. The food is also good and instead of piling the hot sauce on the jerk chicken, they recommended that we get the sauce on the side (a great move) for the little one. Oh, they did not mention the ox tail but they were off the hook!“

“This is perfect.It's a perfect steak. I would like to say that it is impossible to fight against the sword.I was lucky to eat the best steak in a nice place while listening to soft jazz music.After receiving the steak, I took a deep breath, picked up the knife, and cut off a little bit of the end. When I tasted the cut meat with a fork before bringing it to my mouth and eating it, the smell of pepper and the meat was strong.The moment it touches your lips, an earthquake occurs in your head.quicklyThe meat that goes in melts on the tip of the tongue and disappears as if it were going into a blender.There is no time. Since I can't have an infinite amount of time to eat soft meat, I keep using it like a factory machine with quick knurling and forking.I ran without stopping until the end and finished all the meals.It's only about 10 minutes. However, my learning continues even as I write this review, two days later.“

“Amazing food, attentive and knowledgable service made for a memorable first night in San Francisco!!!!“

“Among many excellent Italian spots in the city, this stood out. The homemade pasta has the perfect texture, and the fillings and sauces are delicate and wonderful. Service was kind and attentive, and the space - a favorite when it was Locanda and Ancora - remains intimate and elegant. Looking forward to another opportunity to dine.“

“The best Italian I’ve ever had. Great service great drinks as well.“

“This is the old Palette restaurant space on Folsom. Logistically not sure how they got a Michelin star so quickly. They are on par with Californios. Sat at chef counter and had the 13 course prefix (~$450 for 2 people). Space was warm (2 hearth and open wood fired ovens) w great ambiance. Service was exceptional. Meal was fantastic - all seafood based and no pork / beef. Dishes were creative and rich / flavorful. Drinks were all $20-25 for cocktails and were probably weakest part of their experience. I would maybe get a bottle of wine next time. Out the door paid $750 for 2 people (4 drinks total) which included tax and gratuity which they include on bill. Definitely an expensive meal and night out, good for specialoccasion. Overall would definitely recommend. Great addition to neighborhood for sure, would recommend.“

“Great bartender! Right on SF Bay.“

“We went here for dinner yesterday, the food and service was absolutely incredible! I can’t believe how each dish had so many great flavors. We ordered several dishes ranging from vegetarian to meats, all were spectacular! Thank you for introducing Burma food to us!“

“great food and great service. highly recommend it.“

“Great dim sum. Friendly service. Great location in the fisherman’s wharf area where locals and tourists can enjoy the food and the scenary“

“We had the pleasure of filming this iconic restaurant. The design of it is really cool. The people who work here are very nice, with a variety of food and drink options. A lovely historic spot for locals and travelers to enjoy modern San Franciscan cuisine and cocktails when visiting SF! ♥️“

“Anything. It’s all great. See Jason or Tony at the bar, they are both great at what they do and will certainly make you feel welcome.“

“We had to try the cioppino and heard that Sotto Mare had the best. It was absolutely fantastic! Also had the scallops that were huge and so tasty. Sat at the bar and the service was the best. Thank you for a great experience!“

“Beautifully plated dishes with balanced, complex flavor profiles.“

“What can I say…. Absolutely wonderful experience and better food to match! I highly recommend if you love authentic Italian cuisine….“

“Best poke in mission district.“

“What a great value. The food and service were excellent. The yellowtail and petrale soul were perfectly prepared and seasoned. Our waiter, Anthony B, was very helpful with suggestions. The service was not your plunk it down and never see anyone afterwards. The views are terrific for both locals and tourists.“

“Good food, excellent service“

“Luke's Lobster is located in the heart of the city and jt offers a taste of Maine's famous lobster. Lobster rolls are filled with generous portions of tender lobster meat and served on buttery, toasted rolls.The menu also includes other seafood options such as shrimp and crab rolls, chowders and salads. I find small shrimp roll to be very filling as a lunch option. Crab roll, based on other Bodega Bay restaurants I visited, is just ok. I only had it once.The casual atmosphere of the restaurant adds to the overall experience.“

“Great spot for music. Classic SF waterfront dive bar with great food“

“Beautiful culinary experience. All peruvian ingredients mixed together to create unique and exquisite dishes. Highly recommend“

“Excellent food at a good price!“

“super yummy I loved every bite“

“Just had a phenomenal meal with a large group to celebrate a great friend. The food was incredible - we seriously had almost every item on the menu. Everything was delicious but my top three were the Lechon Paella, the Tomate, and the Chuleton; it was difficult to not eat second and third helpings of each of those, but I knew we had several more tasty dishes to come. The service was fantastic; my sangria and water glasses were full at all times and we never had a moment without something yummy on the table in front of us. We had quite a bit left over and everything was boxed a labeled for us so we could take home more of what we loved. I highly recommend Bellota if you have a special occasion or if you just want to have a fantastic dining experience.“

“Absolutely fantastic! That would be our summed up review. With the white interior and glass counters displaying all seafiidnavailablenfornthe day, the first impression was an upscale fish shop. With small tables on the side, we ordered our selections at the small counter, prepaid, and Satoko at one of the tables. Not crowded on a Saturday morning but many people came by to buy back. 4 types of oysters were available that morning so we had a half-dozen each (Miyagi, St. Simon, Standard Shore, and Kusshi). Few places offer oysters this early in the morning. Fresh and delicious. Kusshis remain our favorite, small but tasty! The clam chowder was rich and creamy. We shared a 16oz. It was filled with clams and potato... so much goodness! The Spanish Octopus Carpaccio was delightfully presented and in a generous portion. Sliced really thin, tasted fresh, not as chewy as one would expect. One of the best ways to eat octopus, I think. Last but not least, the Hamachi Crudo. This was AMAZING! I cannot describe it well enough with words. Fresh hamachi of course, with peppers, nuts (beware if you have allergies), caramelized onions, dill, and a bed of thick gravy-like dressing that perfectly accompanied the hamachi. Excellent dish!“

“Great sushi, perfectly prepared and presented. So glad I walked a few more blocks to go there. Small with a very friendly staff (my 2 Buddhi’s) made for enjoyable experience. Come to town at least once a year; plan to be back.“

“Stopped here for a quick lunch while visiting family at CPMC. I enjoy finding different cuisines when in SF and Piroo was a great find. While they don’t have an extensive menu, they have more than enough options to suit any tastes. I had the pork jhol momo and it was great. Just the right amount of savory and spice to make it memorable. They also serve beer and wine to round out your meal.“

“I love this restaurant. The pan con tomate is one of the best things I've ever eaten. A lot of people complain about the price, but you're getting extremely high-end food that would cost even more at a stuffy restaurant. Everything is high quality and meticulously put together. Also, it's a wine bar. If you want large portions and want to be a glutton then go to Applebees...“

“TLDR: It's the most reliable fish and chip store. I've tried this place at various times in a more than 5 year span and it has always been good. Can and will always recommend. Fish: Batter isn't too thick, and the fish has a flaky solid bite. Crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside with seasoning that won't overpower the mouth. Shrimp: The same solid battering with the same seasoning profile. Shrimp was not overcooked and it provides a different texture compared to the fish. Fries: Fries are fries. It's nothing special, but they didn't mess it up. Clam Chowder: Rich, creamy, loaded with seafood, and it can surprisingly compete with the better clam chowders around town. Service: It's a food truck. You order, you pay, and you get your food. It's not hard to mess it up. Ambiance: The picnic benches under the umbrellas around the truck isn't bad given the San Francisco climate. The tables are sometimes sticky though because they're probably not wiped as much.“

“Stopped in with my buddy before a Warriors game. Place is open, spacious and well lit so it's very inviting. We quickly found a seat at the bar for two about 20-30 min before game time. Ordered a few beers (great beer selection) and were sipping on drinks within 10 minutes of waking in the door. People sitting next us at bar were friendly and bartender (also part owner) was extremely helpful and attentive while we're there. We had already eaten but food on menu and at people tables looked very good. Will definitely make sure to stop by here next time I'm in the area with a little more time to dive into food and wine/beer menu.“

“Very authentic Thai food. Casual environment. Love their dessert and the shrimp paste fried rice.“

“Great taste and great service“

“It's a very welcoming and friendly place to enjoy some good food. Vallet parking is an added extra that makes you want to come back. The seasoned waiters and staff are very friendly and accomidating. The food is consistently very good.“

“Everything about Gozusf is unique. From the furnishings to the restrooms... yes the restrooms are next level. Every dish is presented as a work of art, and is filled with so much flavor it's hard to describe. You simply need to try EVERYTHING. The service is impeccable and this is an experience that should not be missed!“

“Absolutely Divine! Each 'bite' is it's own expression of flavor and talent. They have a lot to be proud of. I tried things I would have never tried on my own. Albeit now, I doubt others will live up to the new expectations!I will say, having read the other reviews here, they should try a few newer things, as it seems they've been doing the same set for 5+ years, making repeat visits bland in terms of originality.Parking: Valet parking.“

“Amazing quality and rich tasty food proportions are Awsome high class spot love it !!!!!! Never been to such an excellent Burmese restaurant!! Great cocktails service & food & price is outstanding I give it 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“It is my first time to complain, I have always ordered food through Uber Eats and the presentation has been excellent and on 03/03/2024 I ordered dinner and it arrived so cold, a bad presentation, the taqueria-style food, I honestly did not like it, it always came better presented the lemon inside a bag so that the seeds do not come out, the food with something thermal so that it does not cool down quickly. And this time it was terrible, it was the worst delivery I received from the restaurant, I honestly felt very uncomfortable because it is not the first time We ordered food from Porto Fino ? and it wasn't the delivery person's fault because he arrived very quickly and was very efficient ?“
