Leo NevelsDecember 28, 2017The Clam Chowder is amazing by the Fish Chowder that the old Chef made was “to die for”. Still an awesome place for Chowder
JenKuduSeptember 25, 2013To this day, the BEST chowder I've ever had! It's one of the top 10 things I've ever eaten. Order it with an anchor steam draft. It's perfect on a rainy day.
Judy MJanuary 26, 2014Didn't have reservations but they were able to seat us (party of 5) almost right away, around 7pm. Thumbs up on house-made chowder, which is best in the bread bowl! No one liked the kid's Mac&cheese.
Missy WeeningJune 23, 2013YUM! Great food, location and service. If you are dining with a non-seafood eater recommend the lettuce wedge with blue cheese and flank steak. You really should try the chowder.
AlesiaNovember 3, 2017We had breakfast as part of our stay at the Argonaut Hotel. The service was excellent and the restaurant has a comfortable atmosphere.
Natalie MJune 19, 2015Don't waist your time at this hotel restaurant. Head down to Taylor street and eat in one of the historic fisherman's wharf restaurants that have much better views!
FoodSherpas.comAugust 22, 2011Located in the tourist Fishermans Wharf, Blue Mermaid is worth trip. You'll find some great chowder options like the California Chowder which has a hint of roast red pepper More @ http://is.gd/Chowder
- Spencer BrownellJune 30, 2013Crab & corn, shrimp & red pepper chowders are great! Cocktails, great! Linguini with clams, best I've ever had! Wedge salad, good.
You need a microscope to find the Lobster in the Lobster Mac&Cheese. NY strip steak overcooked, dry, tastelesss. 🤮
Richard GurryDecember 31, 2011Great chowder! Try the sampler and get 3 diff ones. Don't get the bread bowl of soup though just for bread(not as much soup as just the bowl), bread is free and bottomless! Anchor steam wasn't fresh:(
Kris Vera-PhillipsApril 1, 2013Try the Crab & Corn Chowder - #kvpinmybelly - Yummy #crab meat in a hearty chowder. Comfort food for cold weather
francis amar singhMay 3, 2016Clam chowder, calamari, baked crab dip.. And the black on Black beer...
Mike BernerFebruary 17, 2013The Clam Chowder is the bomb. Love this stuff. Chowder, beer, and basketball at the bar with my Sweetiepie.
Kelly HooverAugust 20, 2012Amazing crab n corn chowder and the shrimp & roasted red pepper chowder was phenomenal as well.
Evan McDanielFebruary 21, 2013The crab and corn chowder is the real deal. Best so far in the Bay Area.- Winery CollectiveFebruary 1, 2010Award Winning Clam Chowder - Best Clam Chowder at 2009 Boston Intl Clam Chowder Competition for creative category for their Crab & Corn Clam Chowder. A must try when in San Francisco!
Isha DNovember 12, 2011The New England clam chowder had barely any seafood in it... Mostly just onions and thin cream. There are many other places to get better chowder.
Jonathan YeeApril 8, 2013Don't forget to ask for your free appetiser if you are a Kimpton inner circle member
Elena S.June 18, 2010Try the Dungeoness and Corn Chowda', everything we had was GREAT! Our server even rec'd a dessert spot, love the genuineness!!
Laurel ZitoNovember 12, 2016The rudest wait staff ever encountered. They refused to bring me a simple cup of calm chowder which I pre paid for. They refused to refund my money.
Marta TsonevaMarch 2, 2011I am having the swordfish with lemon-caper sauce, garlic parmesan fries and cole slaw, it's delicious!
