50 Best Seafood Restaurants near San Bruno

“Had a fantastic experience this evening. I came in after a long flight and they accidentally forgot an add-on to my burrito and promptly made me a new one for me. Now I have 2 delicious burritos and they didn’t charge me any extra. I really appreciate when restaurants go the extra mile for their customers and I can’t thank them enough for their service this evening!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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“

“Delicious food great atmosphere“

“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“

“You cannot find better seafood in San Francisco. I have lived here for 20+ years and this restaurant is consistently in my Top 5 every year. The only reason it’s not a 4.8 or 4.9 is that people grow frustrated with waiting for a table. Good things come to those who wait. The wait is worth it and very egalitarian. Sign me up for this special treat anytime!“

“What a great place, a hidden jewel in the city! Fresh fish, fresh chips and guacamole… Everything was perfect! DELICIOUS❣️ We will return…“

“My fiancé and I found your restaurant Saturday afternoon while sightseeing the city. We were so impressed with the atmosphere and hospitality. This place is the best for nice afternoon seafood lunch! Thank you so much for the delicious meal.“

“The outdoor area is hooded, though you can still occasionally feel the draft. The restaurant staff was very friendly and welcoming to our pups, and they arranged our seats in a corner so the dogs could use more space to rest. The food is exquisite as usual. We especially love all the seafood dishes.“

“Jeanette was outstanding a true professional. Whenever we travel from Connecticut we stop in . We will be back in May and ask for Jeanette ahead of time . Thanks Excellent service“

“One of our favorite places“

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

“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!“

“I really enjoyed my meal there last night. Ordered the vegan combo with the gluten-free teff injeera. The only thing I had to send back were the side order of mushrooms. I requested little or no oil and the dish was drowning in oil. They took it back, no problem and removed the item from my bill. I will go back!“

“Always a hit! You are welcomed like family!“

“Best poke in mission district.“

“Watermelon 🍉 Roll; no rice, refreshingly good Fried seafood chips appetizer; I wanted it as a meal it’s a different yum 😋 Ice cream sandwich wow!“

“Great team of real Pros! Husband Chef, Wife Wine Steward & Saul, my friend, Front of House…Outstanding!“

“Solid Korean and Chinese food Restaurant. My husband and I favorite food is their spicy marinated raw crab so addicting and delicious. We usually order the crispy garlic scallops, HK noodles and crispy garlic string beans. So far majority of their food has been really good and tasty. All the staff are friendly and courteous. The owner is husband and wife they are so friendly and very welcoming so pleasant to talk to. Their portion is big“

“Haven’t been in years and boy howdy! It’s upgraded and then some. It’s not as divey as it used to be, but what’s here now is pretty cool! More places to hang (upstairs and down) with more views. The menu is expanded but still simple, good cocktails. The food has definitely improved a couple of levels and the prices are great for what you get. Awesome, friendly staff that wants you to have a great time!“

“Their chef Ramzy openly admits to tampering with the food of Jewish customers and ownership does nothing. Avoid this place and the Nazis who run it.“

“Was greeted & seated promptly. Welcomed by Manager Hung. Brittany was our waitress & we received the 20th Anniversary Sacks. Happy Anniversary.“

“We had the famous crab, fish fillet, and garlic noodles. The crab was fresh, but honestly, nothing too special about it. The fish was moist and fresh, and the garlic noodles were definitely my favorite.

Overall, I felt the food was a bit overpriced for what they serve. The flavors were just okay and the service was pretty average. Maybe worth trying once, especially for the famous crab, but I wouldn’t say it’s a must visit.“

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

“Amazing“

“Love it! Love the food, friendly and welcoming staff“

“The food was so good, so fresh and the micheladas were so good. We got shrimp ceviche and scallop ceviche which were both amazing, but i preferred the shrimp ceviche. We also got the shrimp tacos that were battered perfectly and had the best salsa. The music was also good and they have outdoor seating/dog friendly.“

“Rich dishes, very delicious“

“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!“

“Some of the best fish & chips we have every eaten! Three large pieces of fish, French fries, and slaw for less than $20.00.“

“Truly unbelievable ambience, service, wine and food. A place I take friends in town, go for date nights, special occasions, weeknight relief, and everything in between. Something new to try by the glass every time (but I go straight for the bottles!! Some serious gems!)“

“Some of the best hot pot I have had and the customer service was great“

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

“Check it out. Delicious food.“

“La sopa súper deliciosa, sin embargo no ofrecen bebidas al momento de tomar la orden. Aunque si hay bebidas gaseosas y demás no nos ofrecieron nada de eso, las raciones son algo pequeñas.“

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

“Fantastic food! Awesome take on fish tacos. Great find!!!!“

“As a girl moving to San Francisco, I can confidently say that this restaurant has become my regular spot! When I used to visit my sister who lives in the bay area, we came to this place and instantly fell in love. It felt like a taste of back home with the authentic spices and lively ambience. The food was delicious, extremely fresh and well seasoned. Everything came out piping hot and was clearly made with fresh ingredients. That’s hard to find nowadays. We ordered just about everything popular on the menu and I definitely recommend the sultani… the char on the meat is truly one of a kind. I also recommend the manti. It’s so unique but the tarte yogurt mixed with the tomato sauce just works. The service was also impeccable. Our waiter, Hussein, was so helpful and took great care of us during our stay. We didn’t want to leave! It was such a beautiful stay and I will definitely be returning for the coming years that I will live in SF!“

“We had an absolutely lovely experience here! Came for my boyfriend’s birthday, everyone was friendly and attentive. Fantastic high end ambience. The food was almost too beautiful to eat and every one of us thoroughly enjoyed our entrees. One of our guests said it was the best spaghetti he had ever had! The mushroom risotto was perfection. I had the Chilean sea bass and WOW! The salmon was also amazing. The other two guests had roasted chicken and hangar steak… I didn’t get to try them but they looked amazing and everyone cleaned their plate even though we were full lol! We will absolutely be back. Highly recommend!! 5 stars ⭐️“

“If you're in the area or at Hillsdale mall, forget about the mall found and come here instead! Chicken wings crispy and not oily, the green garlic sauce with bread is excellent. And the seafood stew is light but flavorful. A local gem indeed“

“Love the dry aged porterhouse, juicy and delicious. The service was phenomenal and of course the new location.“

“Still the best kept secret in San Mateo. I’m moving tomorrow and this food is what I’m going to miss the most. The portions are generous, the price is affordable, the service can’t be beat. Cash only. Small parking lot. Family owned and operated. The carne asada is delicious! Actually I haven’t had a bad meal here. Take away is available. You won't be disappointed . Skip the la cumbre and pancho villa. Come get the best!“

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

“Fish and chips are awesome. Shrimp skewer is delicious. Good value for the price.“

“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.“

“This is the best Pho I've ever had. I had the Pho-zilla! comes with thin sliced filet mignon, a whole lobster and a large beef rib.“

“¡La comida es excelente y un servicio increíble! Pedí tacos de carne asada y me encantaron. ¡La salsa y las papas fritas estaban muy buenas!“
