Pro tip: go to the welcome center (second floor, close to the pier entrance) to get a 15% discount card for this restaurant

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!

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.

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

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.

Great chowder for 9$ only! Service was very fast (even taking the plate before you finished it 😁). Crab was very good
Alisson NegreliNovember 10, 2019
Probably one of the best places in town for clam chowder, fish n’ chips and all the good seafood stuff!
Giselle BaldoJanuary 4, 2019
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!

Great service with a wide variety of sea food. The chowder with crab was fantastic! Comfort food.
Juanisimo MeneiniDecember 7, 2014
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
Maina KhojaJuly 20, 2015
Very fresh sea food, breaded scallops melts in your mouth, and crab cakes one of the best. Cioppino not that good.
Rachel ClarkOctober 31, 2015
They sell their clam chowder by the can for a unique souvenir. The house lager is pretty good, too.
Federica FanfaniSeptember 13, 2015
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!
PDecember 30, 2015
The clam chowder was great. Get the sour dough bowl for refills for a better value. They sell their clam chowder in cans too
Katrina ChernyshovaJune 4, 2018
Very delicious clam chowder with crab and lobster. Really worth to try it! ☺️
Moy VargasFebruary 24, 2016
Amazing Clam Chowder! Spectacular Mesquite grilled seafood! And of course you have to try the Golden Gate IPA!
Sol SalamancaSeptember 25, 2011
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!

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!
Ailie ChangNovember 5, 2017
Crispy Scallops were so good. That jalapeño aioli sauce pairs really well. We had the seafood jambalaya.
Val MichettiJanuary 30, 2012
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.
Lena KiddOctober 16, 2014
I would recommend trying the clam chowder. I have yet to find another place in CA that has clam chowder this good.
Ria ShabiraJanuary 1, 2013
They have the best oysters here. So fresh and full of flavors. Wish I tried the chowder tho, seeing how people raved about it
Al Shaima Al MadaniSeptember 6, 2016
Authentic seafood restaurant as always ask for the specials on the menu
Keith LifschinAugust 25, 2014
Salmon special was delicious. Mesquite grilled over an open flame. So good.
Christopher PestanoApril 23, 2015
"Best clam chowder in Pier 39". Don't forget the daily specials ;)
Frances LeeNovember 4, 2012
Get the clam chowder/salad combo! Very satisfying but be careful - $4.75 for a clam chowder refill!
Babak VZJune 21, 2015
Swordfish is awesome! Good taste and seasoning
Lili BorbaMay 27, 2016
Great view, very good for lunch time! 😋😋😋
Daniel ValenciaSeptember 10, 2013
The Trout is excellent and and the delicious Clam Chowder sit perfect too.
Nicolas MasloJanuary 2, 2012
Great crab, salmon teriyaki and swordfish! Excelent to lunch with kids (they have special menu for them).
Dave WombatJune 17, 2013
Killer fried clam strips! Unlike the crumbs you get at most places, these look like mozzarella sticks!
Laura GonzálezOctober 1, 2014
Muy turístico, los calamares dulces me parecieron congelados. # Very touristy, the sweet calamari seemed frozen
Manuel CarrascoNovember 11, 2014
I like crab cakes as entry dish and swordfish as main.
Gabriel CarmoSeptember 11, 2014
Great food. Ordered sword fish and pesto pasta. Perfect!
Alice XiongJanuary 1, 2014
I tried the clam chowder and the cioppino and they were both great!!! Salad was just so so though.
Najla SaadSeptember 2, 2019
fried shrimp and crab are delicious
İpek BHJuly 25, 2016
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.
Vitalii LevetsFebruary 25, 2016
!!! 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. 🚷
ForrestJanuary 26, 2015
Great Clam Chowder. The Sourdough Bowl is very filling.
Jonathan LuOctober 1, 2015
The rib and steamed crab is nice
Camille BrenkwitzDecember 2, 2018
Surprisingly really good! Great quality food.
Lillian CheungSeptember 6, 2015
Try the clam chowder! Entrée portions are huge here.
Chiara RasiJuly 28, 2017
Place is a bit overpriced but quite good. Clam chowder is better at Boudin tho.
Giuliano RibeiroMay 9, 2015
How good is it! Menu is great and the people is very attention.
Anna QuintoMay 25, 2015
Food is nice and fresh but overprice due to the area
Joseph LindsayJanuary 12, 2013
This is a great place to people watch, have a good bowl of chowder, and good company
Karim SolteroFebruary 10, 2020
Must visit. Delicious clamp soup.
Eduardo GodinhoSeptember 7, 2015
