Julia Johnson: While the clam chowder is my default lunch choice here (amazing!), it is crab season and they have crab on the menu!'
Ranu Rajkarnikar: The oyster selection here is fantastic! Friendly staff and delicious entrees. Note, they only take American ID's and passports so if you're visiting, make sure you have one if you want to drink.
Stephany: Known for their wonderfully fresh oyster selection (even East Coast too) Kumamoto > Sweetwater > Well Fleet Also try the mussels. Better then I ever had in Brussels

Genevieve CW: Try the Cebiche Tasting - So many flavors! Clasico and nikei were my favorites, but the calamari was great too, so soft!
Wilson Favre-Delerue: As good as the Lima original! Excellent ceviches, tiraditos but also meat dishes. Not to mention cocktails, pisco sour amongst many others!
Anne N: Original Ceviche, Dungeness Crab on Purple Potato, and Lomo (grilled tenderloin) were all excellent!!! Get a table outside by the water. Will not disappoint!!!

Garry Wise: This is the best value in all of San Francisco. Amazing seafood specials. Ask your waiter what they would eat today! And don't pass up on dessert!
Kiana Lynn: Crab cakes and seafood sauté are a must! Cakes full of meat, not bread and mirepoix - with a mean sauce. Sauté with large shrimp, scallops and crab chunks, in a delicious butter sauce. Craveworthy.
Gayle Maccia: Classic at its best! Lobster Thermidor is killer. Great drinks, ambiance and food!

Irina Leonidovna: Amazing fresh sashimi and good seasonal fish selection. Consistent high quality sushi, good roll options. My favorites are the salmon sashimi, Toro and scallop nigiri, their domo and wiki wiki rolls
Liliana Volkart: This is a really small restaurant. If you have finished your meal and you see people waiting out in the cold, please be courteous ans take your after dinner conversation to a local bar.
Tara R.: Shrimp & Grits, very good. But the STANDOUT was the MEATLOAF (Pulled pork w carmalized onions?) Special! So amazing.
Kartik Sathappan: There's a long line so get there early. The beignets are great, especially the savory ones. Get the goat cheese and shrimp omelette in the morning and the fried chicken or shrimp and grits for lunch.
Annie: The shrimp and grits is amazing.

Seafood Restaurant · Outer Sunset · 37 tips and reviews
Tyler Stegall: Great new place, super local fish, great food and people. Check out 3 fish studios across the street when you're done.
Ana Clare Smith: The poke burrito is great and is a lot of food. If you want something on the smaller side highly recommend the fish tacos.
Megan Allison: Almost too perfect to believe it's real. Mind-bendingly fresh fish, simple, great flavors in the dish choices. Wish they had a crisper white wine than Chardonnay, but that doesn't make it not perfect.
