“Anchored in the bay, all the way from Puget sound and a dinghy ride in for food. Walked around and quickly realized this was the busiest spot in town. Cold beverages outside made the wait alright. The "award winning" fish and chips were great! Calamari too. Great food, generous portions & good view of our boats. Staff was fun too. Cheers!“

“Excente atención Delicioso todo El Sr Adrian y sus 2 compañeros nos atendieron de lujo 100% recomendable“

“I was there with my daughter and we both have great appetite. plates have plenty of food and it was delicious so much that my daughter bought extra hot sauce she really enjoyed it well so do I. highly recommended and I will visit you guys again whenever I go back to California.“

“The food is amazing! Armando is a FANTASTIC server!!“

“A cute little restaurant with a lot of soul and delicious food!! The woman who served us was really nice, the place is very clean, the menu has a variety of options and there is a really good vibe.

My husband ordered the basil fried rice with a moderate level of spiciness. He loved it, although it was still a little too spicy for him. Next time he will ask for less spicy. I ordered Kao Moo Dang and it was delicious! It is sweetly spiced and there is also a sweet and slightly spicy sauce that comes on the side. To finish, we ordered an egg tart. I could eat it every day!

Overall, we both enjoyed it very much and there are many more options that I want to try. We will definitely be back!“

“My son took me here for lunch - we’d been meaning to try it. We were very pleased - amazing view with tiered tables so other guests aren’t blocking the view. The service was exceptional and the food was delicious and nicely presented. As a nice addition, there was a pianist playing while we dined which added to the ambience. We will come back because it was such a nice treat. One of those places that makes me love living in California!“

“Had my double nickels bday here while on a visit to Half Moon Bay. The family owners are incredibly kind; I couldn’t have asked for a nicer bday dining experience. The food is yum; beautiful presentation. Paella, bravas, scallops… thumbs up!“

“Great poke near SFO! About $20 for a huge bowl with 5 kinds of sashimi — perfect for anyone trying to eat light but stay full. I picked tuna, salmon, octopus, scallops, and another fish, with brown rice, veggies, and spicy mayo. Super fresh and filling until the end of the workday.

Ordering is easy — you just check boxes on the menu, no need for much talking (introvert-friendly ✅). The place is clean and casual, great for a quick healthy lunch.

They also have curry chicken katsu (crispy and delicious), sushi, ramen, and takoyaki. Definitely worth a try if you’re in the area!“

“like being in Italy. Fabulous food, excellent service. The atmosphere is so Italian you'll think that you are in Italia. Bravo.“

“Amazing down to earth people. Best entertainment option“

“Great place for fish and chips or a burger!“

“Parking: free parking, but very busy over the weekend.

I have seen many locations across the bay area.

Food: Most of the foods are grilled or fried. All of them are tasty and fresh. Many fish choices, sauces, and sites to choose from. My favorite sauces are garlic butter and Cajun. The fish and chips are very good with tartar sauce. The grilled sea bass fish are very flavorful and would recommend having sauce on the side.

Price: very reasonable price for portions of food.“

“Cute little Italian restaurant. Superb service and mouth watering menu!“

“Best fish and chips we have ever had. We miss not being close enough to eat here. Always look forward to coming "home" and eating here.“

“Love eating here at Chibog;) Home cook meal! Great service as well. They have so many delicious food to choose from!“

“This is my favorite restaurant. I give them 5⭐️“

“JC Bruno is more than a restaurant, it’s a relationship. It’s now my #1 spot, and I’d recommend it in a heartbeat to anyone looking for great food, genuine people, and unforgettable service! If you’re looking for a go-to restaurant that feels like your favorite local spot and your second home, JC Bruno is it. I truly mean when I say that Marcela, the owner, is the soul of this place, and she has completely redefined what true hospitality means in today’s world. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted not just by a friendly staff, but by people who genuinely care. Marcela herself is always around, and what makes her so special is that she doesn’t act like a distant owner, but rather you feel like you’re planning something with a longtime friend. She’ll chat with you, laugh with you, and most importantly, she stands by you to help plan your perfect experience, whether you’re organizing a small dinner or a full-blown celebration. What blew me away most was how flexible she is. JC Bruno’s menu is already this amazing fusion of European, Mediterranean, and other international flavors, but if there’s something special you want that’s not listed? Just ask. Marcela will go out of her way to make it happen. That kind of flexibility is almost unheard of these days. I’ve worked with many restaurants for events and special dinners, but working with Marcela is different because she treats you like a partner, not a transaction. She’ll talk through your vision, offer smart suggestions, and help you figure out the best possible setup for your group. The way she collaborates with you makes it fun and stress-free. It’s rare to find a place where the owner is this involved and down-to-earth.“

“Excellent food, excellent service, excellent ambiance!“

“There are not enough words to express how amazing this restaurant and its staff is! The food is amazing and the staff are so kind. My favorite thing from there are the bean and cheese pupusas, and the pork ones! If there was a way to give them ten stars I would!“

“Neal’s Coffee Shop is one of those rare spots that still feels like a true neighborhood gem. The moment you walk in, you get that classic, old-school diner vibe—warm, welcoming, and unpretentious.

The food is consistently great, especially the breakfast. The portions are generous, everything tastes fresh, and you can tell they actually care about quality. Whether it’s pancakes, omelets, or a simple cup of coffee, it always hits the spot.

What really makes this place stand out is the service. The staff are friendly, attentive, and make you feel like a regular even if it’s your first visit.

If you’re looking for a relaxed place with solid comfort food and a genuine local feel, Neal’s Coffee Shop is definitely worth a visit. I’ll be coming back again for sure.“

“The peppercorn deep fried Dungeness crab was delicious. It was cooked just right. Meat was fresh, tender and tasty esp with the chopped garlic and peppercorns. The lightly breaded deep fried shell was perfectly seasoned, not too salty. Definitely will come again!“

“I go out of my way to get La Mordida' salsa. Generous self serve salsa bar, delicious Chipotle, Verde, pickled jalapeños and carrots, and spicy peppers and mango salsa (I miss the spicy cucumber salad they used to have all the time. The vegetarian options are good, sometimes just all right, but they are very consistent and everything is very fresh. I can make a whole side dish out of their salsa bar while I wait for my order, which makes this my favorite taqueria in town. The one star is missing from my review in atmosphere, only because it's usually quite loud so I only do to-go. I've only sat inside to eat once or twice. The staff is wonderful, helpful, and kind, even with language barriers. Never gotten my order wrong“

“The best sushi place in SF…I am a sushi lover. The fish there are so fresh and the Uni are premium. From the sashimi to the Kobe beef, everything is top. Their pricing is also very reasonable. Eric and Phoebe are very nice and provide excellent service.“

“This was a great meal! The side salad/soup/apps/entrees came out of the kitchen fairly spaced out so it felt almost like a fine dining experience. Did take a while so know that it is a whole dining experience - not just a quick meal out to eat. I got the Saba no Shioyaki grilled and liked that better than the sushi my partner got. The tempura was amazing and so was the Age Dashi Tofu appetizer!“

“An intimate place to love ❤️ live music.“

“I came in on (9/1) right before 7 pm with 3 of my friends. It seemed a little busy for a monday…well, it’s labor day. Our server, Betty (i think) made sure to keep bringing us fresh biscuits while we waited on our food. Betty was exceptionally sweet. I think we were her last table but she went out of her way to be nice to us. One of my friends had a togo order and she waited to make sure the burger got to us before she left her shift. she was so genuinely gracious, pleasant and accommodating We all hope she is working the next time we are in. she’s a great server.❤️ we’re already planning our next trip“

“Amazing place, the food Is delicious and excellent service!“

“Great food. Very pleasant waiter. View not so bad either.“

“I ate there last week for the first time in several years. The menu is large and many different styles of food. I had the Prime Rib and it was EXCELLENT. There was 2 others in my party and they were equally impressed. Another benefit is that there are no parking problems. I will definitely eat there again.“

“The prawns are incredibly large and light, almost like popcorn — very fun to eat. Fries are crispy on the outside but soft and flavorful on the inside. Best prawns and chips I’ve ever had. When ordering ahead by phone, the staff are always so pleasant, helpful, and patient.“

“everything was really good and the atmosphere was very elegant but the only thing is we ordered the snow crab and lobster tails with the mild sauce but that didn't matter because it was still a bit spicy and to be honest we like a little space to our food but if you don't like spicy food then don't order the butter souce“

“We had dinner here after work event. We were the only ones in the restaurant, but it was early. The food was fantastic, the presentation was excellent, and the employees were very kind. I would definitely go here again, I had the ceviche it was superior. I also had a mango drink which was delicious. Parking can be a little tricky but we lucked out and pulled in right as somebody pulled out and were able to park right in front of the restaurant.“

“One of the best places to get food late night in Millbrae. We've come here a couple times the night before our flight out of SFO and every time it's delicious and the bartender has always been super friendly and poured a great glass of wine.“

“I have been Jonesin for for a lobster roll. I ordered the lobster and cheese sandwich, thinking it would be a grilled cheese with a dash of lobster. Boy, was I wrong! It has a generous helping of lobster, the right amount of cheese and perfect on sourdough! This went well with a black and tan, along with some delicious cheesy tots! This is a really nice, friendly pub and I will be back!!“

“Great place to eat dim sum“

“Eats lot of good food and come out fast“

“Man!!! I love this place. I’m here on vacation and have walked here twice for breakfast and once for dinner. The people are so nice and welcoming and the service is lightning fast. The food—-wow. So good and fresh. Great salads, sandwiches and the pancakes are excellent. I enjoyed the sausage omelette today. Very good and topped with extra avocado. Highly, highly recommended!“

“i seldom dine-in in this place but always when i crave for some pizza and especially a great delicious pasta VIVA ITALIANO IS THE BEST @ pacifica, ca. They served always the food freshly cooked and it’s really delicious and the people that worked there are friendly. Worth everything!“

“Don’t judge this place by the storefront. It looks like a typical Chinese restaurant from the outside, but they also serve Cajun seafood boils.

We went for lunch and ordered a combo with 1 lb shrimp, 1.5 lb clams, and 2 lobster tails with the “mix them all” sauce. The portion was generous. Since it was just the two of us, we couldn’t finish everything and had to pack the leftovers.

The seafood tasted fresh and well cooked. The shrimp and lobster weren’t mushy, and the clams were good and fresh. The sauce was garlicky and flavorful and coated everything nicely.

Overall it was a pleasant surprise. It’s a simple, casual spot but a good option if you’re in the mood for a Cajun-style seafood boil without the usual long wait or high price.“

“Delicious food great atmosphere“

“Food is always good and karge servings.“

“Kevin's Noodle House is the proverbial new kid on the block on Grand Avenue, and it has stepped right into direct competition with Ben Tre. It honestly feels like two local titans going head to head for neighborhood pho supremacy.

That said, I personally prefer Kevin's. I definitely have a soft spot for it since I grew up going to their other locations, and this one delivers that same familiar comfort. The food hits the spot, the flavors are consistent, and it feels dependable in the way a good noodle house should.

The space is clean and modern, and service has been friendly and efficient every time I have been. They renovated this building quite well. Ben Tre is still a strong option and longtime favorite for many, but Kevin's feels a little more my speed. One little quirk I noticed about the waiters - none of them write down orders. They are very good and always get it right. I am glad they opened here, and I will keep coming back.“

“Our church had an anniversary dinner at Yan Peninsula restaurant yesterday. We have a delightful experience from start to finish. The quality of the food was fresh and tasty. The staffs attentive and friendly. We are enjoying a wonderful evening.“

“Really good Chinese BBQ place. All of the bread items we tried were flaky and tasty, highly recommend the brown sugar one. The skewers were all solid, and I appreciated that the beef had a more teriyaki-style flavor, because too much cumin starts to get a bit sameish. In that regard, you should consider getting an order of the lettuce leaves to use as a wrap for the skewers, it's a great palette cleanser and adds some nice texture.

Would love to go again, but it's a bit far from my house and Chinese BBQ isn't something you can do too frequently.“

“second time here, love the Ramon Biria with a side order of Quesabiria.“

“Found this place when I worked for grub hub. It has become my go to burrito place. Prices fair, people friendly and great at what they do. Have not had a bad meal so they're consistent. Prices - I like them. Affordable on a semi low budget. 👍👍Check em out.“

“Navio exceeded our expectations. The food was outstanding—beautifully presented, incredibly fresh, and every course was delicious. What truly made the evening memorable, though, was the exceptional service. Cruz and the entire team were warm, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcome from start to finish. Their attention to detail and hospitality elevated an already wonderful dining experience. We can't wait to return!“
