13 Best Seafood Restaurants in Bodega Bay

“Amazing place to get a bite. I’ve had Spud’s for a few years now. Their clam chowder is the best I’ve ever had. I live 2 hours away, but make sure I get down to bodega bay every few months. The location is awesome, parking can be not great if it’s the weekend and it’s busy. It’s also great they have specials and locally caught seafood. If you haven’t heard of Spud’s then I’m sorry for ya. 10/10 would definitely recommend to anyone.“

“Sourdough bread bowl was excellent! Fish taco were gluten & dairy free... loaded with fish & fresh toppings! Very hearty servings!“

“They have MY favorite clam chowder on the bay.“

“Wow! What a gem! If you are looking for outstanding chowder, you have to try Ginochio’s Kitchen. Best chowder we have had in California. The owner is a sweetheart who knows everything about the town of Bodega Bay.
Huge parking lot with lots of spots. Clean restrooms. Food comes out quick and piping hot.
We finally got to try their breakfast burritos and they did not disappoint. Huge and filled with delicious pulled pork.
We will definitely be back soon!“

“We enjoyed a small cup of clamps chowder, garlic bread and the pan fried fish sandwich. Really like the chowda...it was not typical heavy cream, it was lighter with some herbs with good amount of clams and potatoes. Will get it again but next time a Large! I really enjoyed the pan fried fish sandwich. Lightly breaded pan fry with slaw, good Cajun type sauce and was obviously fresh fish! Will be back!“

“I was here with my sister November 10th. We sat at the bar as the restaurant was pretty busy. Food was delicious, sadly the service/bartender was less desirable and not helpful, at all, we seemed more of an inconvenience to him. He had an attitude. Thankfully, the girl was much nicer behind the Bar.“

“I love coming here for the ocean feel and the delicious food. Drove 2 hours just to eat.“

“Excellent. A place I frequented many times & would highly recommend The Bay View Restaurant @ ThevInn@ the Tides❤ The food & service was & is impeccable❤“

“I called ahead to see if it was alright for Drakes to hold a cake for me for a day which I was told was fine. Upon arrival, the hostess made me feel like I was a massive burden informing me that they in fact don't do that but they could be so kind as to do it just this once. They even went as far as to ask who I spoke to like I was making this up. If you're in the business of hospitality and you're going to accommodate me anyways why do you need to make me feel like a burden. I'll probably never ever want to eat there again. Despite the food being great, the hostesses hospitality entirely turned me off of ever staying at Drakes or dining there.“

“We had a great experience at Drakes Sonoma Coast. We were staying at the hotel there so it was very convenient. The views from the restaurant are excellent of the bay and the wetlands. The service was excellent, friendly and helpful. The food was very good too.“
