It is on the pier , but just out of the way enough to feel private. Get the Jack Daniel's sourdough bread pudding . You won't regret it.

Rachel

A traditional place with classic cocktails - see delicious Lemon Kiss - and a big emphasis on sustainable seafood . The sharing platters are particularly good.

Suja Ramachandran

Great food, service! I am a vegetarian found a fantastic veg risotto . Fiend had the special (mix of different seafood platter ), loved it as well . The Malbec was also fantastic (very smooth).

Gus

Super cool location! The halibut was excellent and the mushrooms delicious! There is valet parking and a fish market in front of it (from the boat)!

Cathi Ackerman

We had our anniversary dinner here last night. The pasta was amazing; piping hot. Service top notch, and the hostess went out of her way to get us a cab back to our hotel . ????

Mary Winfield

Great SF eatery . The food is good the service is outstanding. Love the kitchy pics on the wall of famous people. The best Manhattan around. Old school SF for sure.

Marianne N

Nice view , fun server, good to get some healthy fish and veggies amongst all the naughty american food we’ve been eating

Sheri Paul

Ordered the oysters which were delightful . . . and the garlic crab . Messy - I had butter and parsley running down my arm - but SOOOOO worth it!! Delicious, sweet, succulent and oh so satisfying!

Christian Feng

Clam chowder still excellent, Mixed Grill Plate is good and Cioppino Lazy is always good. No more Breadsticks though for those who've been coming for years.

John Gonzales

Enjoy the celebrities on the wall from the 70s when this place was hopping. Old school waiters and dishes- nothing outstanding but definitely a window back in time.

Robert Olgin

Food is good. Service was great! Nice view as well . It's all about perspective and appreciation for life. A bad day here is so much better than a day back in Baghdad. Quit whining!

Iri Semplicemente

You must absolutely try the Dungeness crab 's dishes here! The service is excellent, the selection of wine is fantastic, the fish is just from the sea for fair prices ... Simply loved it!

Abby C

Gluten free food is marked on menu. Lobster bisque , ciopinno, raw fish platter , fish combo and polenta were all delicious. Service was good too.

Christopher Mezzetta

Amazing! There's a man at the next table with his family, talking business loudly to someone on his cell phone via the speaker phone. Don't sit next to that guy.

Jessica Llanes

We tried the lobster bisque , clam chowder , mixed shellfish grill and cioppino . Big lunch servings on mains. Very good seafood . Might be good to dress up a little but not required. Expensive for lunch .

Melissa Thames

My absolute favorite in San Fran. Their cioppino is divine. All the seafood is fresh. The mussels appetizer is also to die for

Tom Scott

The Cioppino (fish stew ) was very good. Good wine . Excellent service .

Alexander Kuzmin

It’s hard to find a good spot around the touristic Pier 39, but this is a hidden gem . Rec!

Peter T Young

Shellfish combination is great - huge plateful of shrimp , scallops , crab and lobster - with rice , pasta and vegetables . You will not leave hungry.

Jenny Ching

The fish special: pan-seared black cod with roasted potatoes , spring onion purée, and Meyer lemon aioli

Priya Saiprasad

Please do your stomach a favor & order the crab risotto . Chunky pieces of fresh-out-of-the-water crab over a bed of cheesy tomato based risotto . Pair it with a glass of prosecco and eat away!

Gary Bacon

Crab dishes, calamari , seafood all are outstanding. Nice selection of wines as well . Excellent views too..????

Odile Roujol

Great service. Crab . Oyster . Crispy calamari . Enjoy the view and the quite conversations

Shirley Au

The clam chowder here is to die for!!! They used to make the Manhattan clam chowder , which is even better than the New England clam chowder (yes, for reals!) Please ask them to bring it back!!!

It doesn’t get fresher than this. Scoma’s Restaurant on Pier 47 in San Francisco holds a licensed fish preparation station five feet away from its kitchen door. Read more

My bros and I got thrown out for "horseplay" in the bathroom . I had no pants on and a bus boy started slapping me. Great seafood besides the incident.
