12 Best Seafood Restaurants near Calistoga

“My partner and I showed up after this restaurant had stopped seating people, but the host and server were so wonderful and let us order and eat there anyway! We had the penne vodka sauce and it was the best I’ve ever had. Wine suggestion was excellent and our waiter was so kind and made us feel welcome even though we were late. The kitchen also made sure they accommodated my shellfish allergy… Our new favorite restaurant in Calistoga!“

“We visited Townes during Sonoma County restaurant week and they did not disappoint! Their Mussels were absolutely to die for! There wasn't just a simple broth in the bottom of the dish, it was more like a tasty chowder with fine veggies and seasonings that you wanted to soak up every drop of! Their desserts were also yummy. The setting is pretty simple having previously been 3rd Street Ale Works but the food and service was stellar!“

“This place has the best fish n' chips and calamari! Their tartar sauce is mouth watering!! Everything else on their menu sounds so good too, but I always go with the same thing because it's too good to not order. Leave room for dessert and try their lemon cloud; it iS HEAVENLY!“

“Our 2nd time here. We got California Burger and Root Beer Float, both are delicious! Plenty of seating here, your hands may get dirty cause the burger is juicy, but there are outdoor sinks to wash hands. Restroom is clean. I know there are so many good restaurants in the area but if you don't have time to sit down and dine, this is the best option. Highly recommend.“

“We ate at CA Bianca twice during our stay in Santa Rosa. The food was exquisite, homemade Italian, and the dessert was so delicious, the best crème brûlée I’ve had in my life & the service was phenomenal, with the ambience so romantic on the porch. We highly recommend this restaurant.“

“As a Human Resource Regional Manager I wish more businesses were like this. Outstanding staff and Outstanding food and drinks. I’m a math major so I rate my experience at Stark’s Steak & Seafood, a 3.14 out of 3.14. I look forward to going to Stark’s again. I wish everywhere was like Stark’s. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Stark’s sets the example for others in the field. Ladies and gentlemen take notes. This is how you conduct a successful business. - Pierce“

“It would be cool if the boats were being utilized for food. The top part (a conveyor belt) was functional and some of our food came to the table on jt. Overall the food was okay in an area without many Japanese cuisine offerings. If I was around I'd come back, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come. Nice staff, OK service (we came during a busy time). Restaurant was clean.“

“A+ service and food. Beef Cheek, Salmon, Scallops, Onion Soup and Creme Brule (huge) were extremely well prepared. Beef fell apart with a fork, wonderful flavor. Potatoes under with the gravy, perfect fit. Scallop dish very rich. Cheesy, flavorful and cooked perfectly. Sauce was stupid good. Probably was the highest A+. Onion soup was exactly what it should have been....Classic French Onion Soup. Salmon done very French style. Sauce was over the top good. Creme Brule was huge, biggest I have ever been served (over 100 times). More importantly, excellent flavor and texture (both custard and hard flamed top). Service was attentive, timely and not overbearing. Really awesome experience!!! Will be back very soon!!“

“Had a great table in a great setting, great service with Paul, and great food. Lucky us! I have one tip, if you are on a low salt diet this is gonna be hard to pick out something. This is not a criticism. I did find it at the upper end of my personal tolerance, but please understand the food was delicious. Not only delicious but refreshingly creative. We eat by splitting courses. Started with the pimento cheese bread (brioche), this is not a stand-alone ap but a gooey topping on bread that is light, airy, and rich. It went well with their well above average Negroni. Creativity kicked in with the tacos, probably all of them are good. Our pick was pastrami tacos. Very fun. I've heard the duck choice is good. Next were the lamb meatballs. Some people complain about the gaminess of lamb, but I complain when it isn't gamey-lamby enough. If you like mild lamb, their choice of meat is great. My personal preferences aside, it was a very good dish. Finished with a very nice and just-right panna cotta. This place is definitely going into our rotation (The Santa Rosa, CA rotation: B&B, Jackson's, Grossmans, Ca Bianca, Cascabel, Yeti)“

“Mandarin Kitchen offers a delightful mix of pan-Asian dishes. As you enter, the cozy ambiance sets the stage for a memorable dining experience. The menu is full of tempting options, like the irresistible Bang Bang Shrimp, a spicy shrimp appetizer that leaves you craving more along shook in Aioli sauce.Their Mandarin Pad Thai is a symphony of flavors and brings you the traditional Pad Thai taste, blending tender rice noodles, crisp veggies, and savory proteins, in a perfectly balanced sauce with peanuts.And for those who love classic Chinese-American cuisine, the Orange Chicken is a must-try. Each crispy bite coated in tangy orange glaze is pure comfort food bliss.Beyond the delicious food, Mandarin Kitchen offers good service, making every guest feel welcome and valued. Whether you're dining with friends or on a romantic date, this restaurant promises an unforgettable experience. Located in the heart of Montgomery Village, it's a culinary gem worth exploring.“

“My daughter recommended this restaurant and I took my sister there last night. The food was very good, and would totally go back again. BUT I had a $50.00 gift certificate to use on a $70.+ tab and they wouldn't take it. Waiter said, manager isn't accepting gift certificates at this time. What the hell? It's not cheap to eat out any more as it is, and to not to accept a gift certificate is BS!“

“The food here is always fresh and hefty. I had the dinner all you can eat special. I was full. I wish I had more room in my tummy to fit more food during the time I was there. The service was good except for that other tables who ordered after us got their meals before we got ours. They have a restroom for the customers and metered parking is available when it is not during peak hours for the area. Thank you.Vegetarian options: There are definitely a few vegetarian dishes to choose from and are really delicious too!“
