Must order are the whole Dungeness crab and just discovered the Apple Crisp. Love the vanilla ice cream on the warm crumbles and generous portions of thinly sliced baked Granny Smith apples . Yums!

Julia Pile

Delicious! I had the special of the day which was fried salmon with garlic fries . Yum, yum. Kids grilled cheese wasn't a big hit with my picky eater. Fish & chips were really good too. Nice staff .

Cynthia Hoyt

BEST Clam Chowder ever!! Add Tabasco Sauce if you like your chowder spicy . The Crab Louie is HUGE and delicious. Our waitress made the evening, she was wonderful! (Take a can of chowder home!!)

Good choice, the food is fresh snd tasty, good service but crowded and not so clean . Lobster tails worth it

Maan ????

Great vibes, great place and great service… the food is amazing and the bes chowder soup preferred in bread , fried shrimp is amazing too .. just go and order

Halle Mansur

I ordered the Teriyaki Salmon which I recommend. There will be a little bit of a wait, and the tables are a little closer together than for comfort, but the service is great.

Alisson Negreli

Probably one of the best places in town for clam chowder , fish n’ chips and all the good seafood stuff!

Anechka M.

Great chowder for 9$ only! Service was very fast (even taking the plate before you finished it ????). Crab was very good

Maina Khoja

Very fresh sea food , breaded scallops melts in your mouth, and crab cakes one of the best. Cioppino not that good.

Vicki Kolovou

Great service with a wide variety of sea food . The chowder with crab was fantastic! Comfort food .

Federica Fanfani

Fried shrimps are very good, crab chowders are delicious and desserts are great. The service is good but sometimes the waiters are not that polite!

Juanisimo Meneini

Clam chowder is really nice specially on a chilly day also try the roasted garlic crab ,a suggestion from our waiter ! Service is also really nice! Enjoy your meal

Giselle Baldo

First time I loved so I went again but it was bad ???? place has a wonderful view and soup is great! But service terrible, they are nervous and unfriendly, Started got almost a half hr after main meal!

Katrina Chernyshova

Very delicious clam chowder with crab and lobster . Really worth to try it! ☺️

Sol Salamanca

best seafood of the bay ... try the clam chowder and of course the traditional San Francisco dish: Cioppino paired with a strawberry and mango margarita ... while watching the sea lions taking a nap!

Rachel Clark

They sell their clam chowder by the can for a unique souvenir. The house lager is pretty good, too.

Ailie Chang

Crispy Scallops were so good. That jalapeño aioli sauce pairs really well . We had the seafood jambalaya .

Val Michetti

Try the fish & chips ! Wonderful; the fish is nice and thick, and the batter is just right. Sit outside under a heat lamp if you're having dinner .

P

The clam chowder was great. Get the sour dough bowl for refills for a better value. They sell their clam chowder in cans too

Moy Vargas

Amazing Clam Chowder ! Spectacular Mesquite grilled seafood ! And of course you have to try the Golden Gate IPA !

Forbidden Meal Meal

I definitely recommend Pier Market for all of you tourists who will pass by Pier 39 anytime soon - I'm sure you won't be deceived!

Christopher Pestano

"Best clam chowder in Pier 39". Don't forget the daily specials ;)

They have the best oysters here. So fresh and full of flavors. Wish I tried the chowder tho, seeing how people raved about it

Lena Kidd

I would recommend trying the clam chowder . I have yet to find another place in CA that has clam chowder this good.

Salmon special was delicious. Mesquite grilled over an open flame. So good.

Giuliano Ribeiro

How good is it! Menu is great and the people is very attention.

Dave Wombat

Killer fried clam strips ! Unlike the crumbs you get at most places, these look like mozzarella sticks !

Jonathan Lu

The rib and steamed crab is nice

Camille Brenkwitz

Surprisingly really good! Great quality food.

Manuel Carrasco

I like crab cakes as entry dish and swordfish as main.

Gabriel Carmo

Great food. Ordered sword fish and pesto pasta . Perfect!

Alice Xiong

I tried the clam chowder and the cioppino and they were both great!!! Salad was just so so though.

Ahmet Emin Hondor

Pier Market Mixed Grill and Fisherman's Platter are really good!!

Frances Lee

Get the clam chowder/salad combo! Very satisfying but be careful - $4.75 for a clam chowder refill!

Justin Ward

Good food with quick and friendly service . Kind of expensive for what you get but you're on the wharf so it is typical.

Forrest

Great Clam Chowder . The Sourdough Bowl is very filling.

Vitalii Levets

!!! One of he worst service in SF. Swordfish steak is tasteless. ???? Staff is careless and rude. The guy stopped me on my way out and basically forced to leave him a tip. Ridiculous. ????

Joseph Lindsay

This is a great place to people watch , have a good bowl of chowder , and good company

Lillian Cheung

Try the clam chowder ! Entrée portions are huge here.

Vivek Nair

Tried clam chowder and fish fillet and liked both.

İpek BH

Staff are nice and has nice window view , however the wait is long and the Swordfish I had was very bland and chewy. With so many delicious options in SF area, not worth it.

Kubra Basar

Nice fish soup ! Although the service could be more quick!

Karim Soltero

Must visit. Delicious clamp soup .
