Loved this place and their service was superb. We went there to celebrate a milestone birthday. We sat outside with our dog under the warm Sausalito sun and by the ocean. The wines were good. I loved the clam chowder soup and I had the Cashew Cod,while my husband had the Halibut. Both dishes were delicious and well presented. We ended with a Tres Leches and a bag full of lovely memories at this classic Sausalito institution. We are definitely going back.
Excellent food and service. The Caesar salad was one of the best I’ve ever had. Fresh, high-qualify vegetables and seafood made all of the entrees great. Would definitely come back.
Visited this past Saturday for our anniversary. Although we walked in, we were able to sit at the bar and have a drink and appetizer until our table was ready. The bar staff was very pleasant and helpful.
After getting our table, our server "Saul" took excellent care of us. He answered our questions and made a few terrific recommendations. My wife had the petrale sole dore, and I had the curry crusted ling cod with mildly-spiced Jasmine rice. Saul was very attentive yet not overbearing.
The entire experience was perfect. We look forward to returning soon.
We really enjoy eating at this Scoma's. It's a smaller restaurant with great views of the bay and The City. The food was really good and the service excellent. We had the roasted artichoke, sesame ahi tuna and lobster risotto 🦞 and for dessert the Pana cotta.
Very great place w amazing seafood! I went here for my 1yr anniversary and it was really, good as well as a very nice place to just walk around and beautiful seashore.
I am a big fan of Scoma's restaurants, both in Sausalito and San Francisco. We recently visited the Sausalito location after a morning hike. We started with the Arugula Peach Salad, which was fresh and flavorful. The Steamed Clams were juicy and tender, and the Swordfish was perfectly cooked. We also enjoyed the stunning views of the San Francisco skyline and Tiburon Island from the table.
I would definitely recommend it to others. You can park your car in one of the nearby parking lots or on the street. It is $5-$6 an hour. Enjoy!

Customer service goes a long way… our server Alana was the best we have EVER had, fine dining or not! Our food was amazing too. We loved this so much, we will definitely be back ❤️
Doesn't get any better than this, the view, food and the service all exceptional! When in San Francisco take the ferry and have a wonderful lunch or dinner. The Halibut and Scallops are out of this world. Scrimshaw Pilsner went well with the seafood.

First of all, make a reservation. This place is smaller than it looks from the outside. The bar area occupies nearly half of the building. Now that you've done that, you will not be disappointed.
From start to finish, we had an excellent experience here. The place was jumping, yet we were seated immediately at our reservation time. A nice spacious table for the two of us that provided views of the bay.
We started with a half dozen oysters. Nothing much to say about here. They're oysters. Fresh and delicious.
My wife ordered the Peach Arugula Salad and paired it with the Prosciutto & Melen. Both were very well balanced, and the prosciutto along with the table bread were the perfect compliment to the acidity of the vinaigrettes.
I ordered the Grilled Striped Sea Bass off the chef's menu. This one was a showstopper. Hands down the best seafood dish I've ever had. Yes, it's really that good!!! All of the ingredients and seasoning were perfect. My wife probably got annoyed because I literally didn't shut up about how good it was for the rest of the night. I really, REALLY hope this becomes a permanent item because I'm still dreaming of having it again.
What really seals the deal is the overall value of dining here. The quality of food and excellent customer service makes this place a real winner in a town that's filled with "fancy" restaurants. Appetizers, entrees, cocktails, and post dinner espressos came to about $130. If you had to pick one restaurant during your visit to Sausalito, make it this one. We will be back!
Food was really good, everything was well cooked. The salmon had a crunchy layer on the outside, and was warm and well cooked on the inside. Tye sauce for the salmon was such a great combo, it was sweet and it just went well with the texture. The cioppino was amazing, a wide range of seafood included, such as octopus, crab, shrimp, mussels, clams, fish, and tomato broth. The ribs and overall seafood were fabulous as well. Service was good, 100% recommended!!
What a fantastic experience this restaurant was! I ordered a lobster tail dinner, which was cooked to perfection. And I found a new refreshing cocktail to add to my favorites. The service was fantastic and the view spectacular! I can't wait to go back to Sausalito to visit this restaurant again!
Scoma's in Sausalito is an absolute gem! From the picturesque waterfront location to the exquisite seafood dishes, every visit here is a delightful culinary journey. The flavors are as fresh as the ocean breeze. Highly recommended!

Sausalito's Scoma's: An Ode to Seafood, Wine, and Unforgettable Charm.
Step right in, amigo! If you're a seasoned traveler to Sausalito, you understand its allure. Like walking into a picturesque postcard, Scoma's is the soul of it all. It's not just any restaurant, but an establishment renowned for its splendid seafood and vibes that scream 'feel good.' For over fifty years, Scoma's has been more than a place to grab a meal - it's a tale of Sausalito that never gets old.
A good story never goes untold. Let's travel back in time to 1965, a time when Al and Joe Scoma converted a small, cozy coffee shop with six tables into a sought-after seafood haven. Fast forward to the present, and the legacy lives on, with the Scoma's still at the helm, ensuring the charm that placed it on the map endures. This place is no run-of-the-mill establishment - it's a family-centered enterprise, rooted in tradition and warmth.
Scoma's, tucked away on Sausalito's picturesque waterfront, offers panoramic views of San Francisco Bay's beauty and the city skyline's architectural marvel. The atmosphere is a tasteful mix of laid-back and sophisticated - a cozy nook where you're more than a customer, you're part of the family. Add in the random yet delightful sight of sea lions, and you have an unparalleled dining experience.
Unquestionably, seafood takes center stage here. It’s a fresh, mouthwatering, sustainably-sourced delight straight from the wharf's heart. The menu? Think of it as the 'Hall of Fame' for seafood. From the velvety clam chowder to the rich and meaty Shellfish Saute unique to Scoma's, every dish is a flavorful masterpiece.
Here comes the best part for all you oenophiles: the wine list. And what a treasure it is! Scoma's caters to every wine lover's fancy and complements each dish perfectly. The expansive list spans from the tangy Chardonnays and vibrant Sauvignon Blancs to the robust Cabernets. If you have a soft spot for Californian wines, their collection won't disappoint. Be it a cool white to harmonize with your clam linguine or a bold red to enhance your hearty Cioppino, Scoma's hits the spot. Remember Scoma's Wine Book Wine has been Spectator Award Winner since 2001-2023.
When the day is done, Scoma's stands out as more than a restaurant – it’s an immersive journey. From the instant you step in, you're served with the finest seafood, exquisite wines, and a heartwarming atmosphere. It's a place where memories are crafted, one delectable dish and wine glass at a time.
This overview is your foundation, there's a universe to explore beyond this. You could delve into personal anecdotes, describe specific dishes and wines you've savored, or dig deeper into the establishment's rich history and the lineage behind it. You might find interest in their sustainable fishing practices or the nuanced details of their interior design. The ball is in your court. Enjoy the adventure!
The seafood is excellent here! I'm very picky when it comes to the taste of seafood here it was cooked perfectly.
The service was polite and thoughtful. The restaurant has a great view of the Bay of San Francisco.
Everything was perfect.
Amazing atmosphere, delicious food and excellent service.
You definitely must try the salmon with risotto and the Caesar salad, absolutely marvelous.
This restaurant in Sausalito is so cute and right on the water. We had a table in the back of the restaurant with a lovely view of the water and San Francisco skyline. The food was really good too. I really enjoyed the nicoise salad with seared ahi tuna and the spicy margarita.
Scoma is a seafood gem, just a 30-minute ride from San Francisco, offering not only exceptional cuisine but also a touch of magic. Nestled in this enchanting city, you're treated to a breathtaking view of San Francisco and the iconic Golden Gate Bridge. The combination of this splendid location, top-notch service, and delectable seafood makes it an ideal choice for celebrating special occasions without breaking the bank. A truly memorable dining experience with a view that's nothing short of magical!
Loved pur food and our server was extremly responsive and helpful.. we got seated right away (we sat outside which was not ideal, next time I will ask to sit inside). Overall, excellent experience -- will come again
