Crab cakes had mango & tomato relish that doesn't go well with crab cakes. Salmon in entree platter was slightly overcooked:(.

I don't get how they include responsible ocean eating tips from Monterey Bay Aquarium and give out plastic bags with their leftover boxes... Fix it Fisherman's Grotto!
Kevin ZhangNovember 22, 2012

My girlfriend and I both got fish meals and both of them came out significantly burned. The service was nice but totally not worth the high prices.

THE most amazing seafood I've ever had. Period.

The clam chowder come in a bread bowl. And try the calamari!!
Jen HarrisOctober 3, 2010
Hands down, best clam chowder on the west coast. Service is okay. Dishes are good, but the way they are prepared is really a hit-or-miss. Coconut shrimp is amazing-can't ruin that dish.
Richard EverittApril 25, 2013
Clam Chowder is superb as was the crab ravioli.
Bettina SySeptember 18, 2013
Must order clam chowder! It's so good!

Sitting next to window and feeding the sea gulls is fun, but beware once they get spoiled on fries they won't eat the bread anymore.
Mike LopyrevJune 15, 2013
Don't get a cup of the clam chowder. Get a bowl. Or two.
