Without question one of our favorite restaurants in Northern California. Our Christmas day lunch special, and we stumbled upon our favorite waitress and also was introduced to their new manager. Excellent food excellent view excellent service excellent meal. Naturally, we will return. The Cioppino Stew and crab enchiladas are a must.

Though I have had good food here in the past, when we went for lunch on Tuesday, November 4 I ordered the crab enchiladas, Our friends highly recommended this dish. I was so disappointed. There was barely any crab in the enchilada and it was filled with lettuce??? Since when do you put lettuce in enchiladas? Even the flavor was at best mediocre. It will be s long time before we go back

Burned fish and chips. Not beer battered but probably panko crumb coating. French fries were "ordinary " at best. The EPI bread was (as always) delicious. Server was friendly and efficient.

We ordered two cioppinos each at $39.99. The quantity of soup was significantly reduced comparing to a year or two ago. Filled with small oysters,
two small legs of crab and no fish. Sad.

Go somewhere else! Food is overpriced and not that good. The cocktails are reasonably priced. However, no effort or quality was put into terribly made drinks. The blood orange margarita was the most popular drink, apparently. Unfortunately, it didn't taste like blood orange or tequila. Next, I had the blackberry lemon drop. That was even worse. The glass was dirty, and it tasted like flavored toilet water rather than liquor, blackberries, or lemons. Service and atmosphere were average.

The food was not really tasty. The atmosphere was loud and uncomfortable. It is way over priced. I honestly would not recommend.

Kid-friendliness: There were definitely about of kids there. It made it very loud.

Wheelchair accessibility: If you had a wheel chair, is going to be difficult to navigate

I can honestly say I never had a mediocre meal there till tonight, I adore this place but tonight was the ultimate letdown. They changed the garlic noodles and crab recipe, ordered with crab, but absolutely NO crab on it? More like pesto with cheese, not the way it used to be, really unfortunate… you need to figure out your quality control that used to get me to give you the 5 stars!

Food was standard. It’s good but it didn’t wow me. I wish they would update their menu for more variety. Their service is amazing and love the atmosphere. I will come back again but hoping for more variety in seafood dishes.

Overpriced food that's just ok, not great.
Long wait for drinks and the man that brought them made it feel like it was such a chore to have to do his job.
Everything was salty and lukewarm, I guess we should have ordered a sizzling platter but they were $$$$.
Maybe the higher prices cover the security car sitting in the parking lot?
Was much better back in the day.

Valentine's night was a joke. We made a reservation 3 weeks in advance. There was a line of 50+ people outside in the cold, waiting to be seated. After an hour we finally got our table. Ended up paying for drinks and leaving. Bruschetta was awful, bread was soggy, and tomato pieces were a size of half of finger. No flavor at all. They didn't offer any compensation to us even after we asked about it. Taking my money elsewhere next time.

This place was great at one time, now it's a dirty old has been. My plate had been in a warmer so long the fish was stuck to it. The potatoes were unrecognizable and dry. The restaurant is filthy, food debris and funk on the walls, backs of the booths, and table partitions. The ceasar salad was $16 and tiny(like barely a cup), either make it small and cheap or give me what I paid for. The tarter sauce was warm and had a coating on the top like it had been sitting around a long time. The fish and chips were very good and the only reason I gave it 2 stars and not 1. This place is disappointing on a level that can only be described as sad.
