| About: | Scoma's prepares some of the best seafood dishes on Fisherman's Wharf, which is no small feat considering the competition. The dining room is a bit old-fashioned, yet also contemporary and not very unusual. The menu focuses on fresh seafood that is either sauteed or broiled. Enjoy Dungeness Crab, prawns, scallops, calamari, abalone, swordfish, salmon, oysters and clams. House specialties include a Spicy Cioppino (seafood stew) and a Filet Mignon and Lobster Tail combo. The wine list is adequate, featuring domestic and imported wines. |

We were there with some family and our two kids. After you get past Fisherman's Wharf and the Piers and grimy walkways you arrive to find the restuarant looking pretty nice. The staff was extremely nice especially with our two kids. The food was amazing. I recommend the Chiopino or the Calamari.
Last year we celebrated our anniversary at Michael Mina's and the bill was over $400 for two, including a moderately priced (for this restaurant) bottle of wine. This year we celebrated at Scoma's which was where we went on our first date thirty five years ago. The tab was around $125, including a nice wine. We actually enjoyed Scoma's more--certainly our waiter was more friendly although I'm sure that M Mina's doesn't encourage their waitstaff to "fraternize" at the prices they charge. Just be aware that when you visit Scoma's you'll get an "old time San Francisco restaurant" experience. The fish is fresh and cooked perfectly and you certainly don't leave feeling hungry!!!
My family owns this restaurant and I think it is the best seafood EVER! Yes it's pricey but you pay for the food and the service. I would much rather take an hour drive to the city and eat there then go to NASTY Red Lobster! You don't know what good seafood is until you try Scoma's! RIP Uncle Al!
