The food and service for our belated anniversary celebration were excellent. We were seated by the windows with a view of the bay and San Francisco skyline. We started with a cocktail each. The California Old-fashioned came out round 1 in a chipped glass. To be safe, we had it taken back and replaced with a new drink with no fuss. It was good. She had a Sausalito Blossom from the seasonal menu. It was delicious! We shared a crab cake appetizer. My cake was flawless and flavorful. Wife did pull some shell out of hers but otherwise enjoyed it. For mains, I had the seared ahi tuna and she enjoyed the scallops. Both were excellent. We enjoyed each bite. We were surprised with a complimentary ice cream dessert. We enjoyed that to cap off our meal and our week in California. I would return to try more menu items and specials.

If you're hungry and happen to be in Sausalito, dine at Scoma's! we stopped in for lunch recently. The managers and servers were very friendly and accommodating of our family of seven. Everything from the decor to the service was smooth, efficient and relaxed. The water view and bay windows made everything gorgeous. My cioppino was delicious, as was the pear and arugula salad. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered. This may be TMI, but the men's room even has a privacy curtain. I've never seen that before! Good on them! I hope to return someday. Thanks for a memorable family lunch!

I can genuinely say this is one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I walked in, everything—from the warm and attentive service to the incredible food—was absolutely top-notch. The dishes were served piping hot shortly after I placed my order, and every bite was bursting with flavor. I’ll admit, I didn’t even have the patience to take perfect photos because the food looked and smelled so amazing—I just had to dig in. It’s rare to find a place where both quality and care shine through so clearly. This meal left a lasting impression, and I can’t wait to come back.

The food are so delicious! We ordered clam chowder and prawn as starters, sweet scallop, lobster risotto, and fish as main courses. So good! The staff are friendly. We can enjoy the sea view while eating. There is a big mirror on the wall so people sitting on all sides can see the sea. Smart arrangement. Definitely will visit again.

We had a great meal at this iconic seafood spot located on a small wharf jutting out into the bay on a cool and drizzly Saturday in April. While we were hoping for more hospitable weather so as to enjoy the view, San Francisco’s notoriously climate pushed in some light rain. Nonetheless, we arrived early for our 6:45 reservation and were very pleased to be seated in the prime part of the restaurant-a porch like area all the way at the end surrounded on three sides by windows. With large mirrors on the walls, everyone has a view to the water. This part of the place seats maybe 20 people. There’s another larger area in the center with windows on two sides but you’ll want to try to get these prime spots if you can. This place is bustling and the efficient waiters are constantly filling water glasses and bringing food and clearing tables. The menu focuses on seafood. We had had a big lunch so decided to do salads and appetizers. Both The arugula pear salad and the special gem salad were fantastic-fresh and flavorful. The Dungeness crab cakes and Spanish style shrimp (Gambas) were also wonderful. I’m a sucker for good sour dough bread and theirs didn’t disappoint. Toss in a couple of glasses of Grgich hills fume blanc and it’s just about my perfect meal in the Bay Area. Well done.

Food was amazing, had fresh Calamaris and clam chowder soup for appetizer, Dungeness crab spaghetti for main--everything was flavorful and you can tell the freshness. Service was great, walked in did not have a reservation (I DO NOT RECOMMEND, GET RESERVATION WHEN YOU CAN), still catered to my little family and sat us by the bar. The hostess was very accommodating, and the rest of the waitstaff were 10/10.

Beautiful setting for any occasion! Friendly staff. Excellent menu. We enjoyed the white clam chowder, crab and shrimp cakes, and sole and lobster risotto mains. Hubs drank the California old fashioned. It came with the large ice he likes. Our waiter took our picture with the tiramisu decorated plate. Lovely dining experience.
