Delicious! I came…read moreby here with my friend and got the shrimp head off combo #1. The oysters were so good that I had to get 'em again on my second visit. The Cajun fries are great when they're pipping hot, I highly recommended getting 'em with the spicy mayo sauce. Garlic bread was good! For the shrimp head off, they remove the head and slit the back to devein the shrimp. I personally like it with the head on, but I do notice that the meat is much softer than the head off ver. The king crab legs were delicious. The only issue I had was with the gloves, they're not that great.

Came here last weekend for a meal visiting family in the area. The service was nice and the oysters…read morewere good. However, the Cajun seafood was covered in oil. We ordered the first combo Louisiana flavor medium, the price is a good deal, especially coming from the peninsula. But the seafood was all covered in oil and if you dig past the oil to the seasoning, the flavor is somewhat bitter. I've had Cajun seafood up and down the bay area from SJ to SF and haven't had it that oily or bitter in seasoning. I'd say the oyster and fries were the best things we had. The garlic noodles were disappointing, just covered in grease and bland.

It's inviting vs the stuffy atmosphere some places have. BABAGANOUSH PITA we got it for the kiddo expecting it to be run of the mill stuff you get. But the babaganoush had the extreme rich flavors of smoked eggplant and felt like almost half an eggplant went in there. Not diluted with tahini, garlic, just pure flavors of eggplant with tanginess of sumac. LITTLE GEM SALAD WITH RAINBOW TROUT was hearty, leafy and very refreshing. The pickled celery was the surprise. HAMACHI CRUDO - beautifully assembled with thoughtfulness, light, refreshing. A bunch of flavor bombs in there so each bite is an adventure. Basil making it refreshing, earthy crunch from hazelnut, sharpness from green onion, sweet tart kiwis. I think a bit of citrus would make this a superstar. Mandolin shaved limes perhaps? GRILLED MAITAKE MUSHROOMS - ok I think this was the chefs most technically impressive dish, with an exercise in playing with bitter profiles and turning it into a master piece. Grilled maitake gets the char from the grill is the first flavor layer, it's woken up by the wild thyme from the zatar. Next the Japanese turnips bring the second dimension with earthy beautiful bitter notes on a bed of a creamy tahini based sauce. It's finished with fresh parsley to bring a fresh element to it. Great stuff. Could raddichio be added to make this more challenging? I saw those crunchy POTATOES and I got them even after eating the meal lol. Do yourself a favor and just get them - they're hot, crunchy and perfect to pair with the vegetables. Finally we got their chocolate mousse with bruleéd bananas sorry couldn't take a picture before it was all gone. Great way to wrap. The staff were all super friendly and helped with picking things from the menu! I got the mystery glass of wine and they had made a fun game out of it. The Beaujolais was great too. Overall when you're surrounded by these amazing farms, vineyards and ocean - no better way than to bring them together - kudos to the creators of the Redwood for making this place with intentionality. I wanted to get the squash, duck pâté, spring pea salad, tinned fish items as well, I guess for next time!

The food was excellent, a unique take on exceptional fresh local ingredients; with a good variety…read moreof snacks, small plates and mains. Although the flavor profile on the salmon with citrus and saffron was not to my taste it was expertly prepared. All that said we received some of the most neglectful service I have ever had from a very nice server, who for no obvious reason left us alone for most of the meal. It got busier as our time stretched on, but it wasn't slammed and there was plenty of staff. We ordered plenty of food including two bottles of wine. We had to completely finish all of our appetizers before being asked about mains and we sat with empty glasses for ~20 minutes (possibly more) before we flagged someone down to get the second bottle; a bottle we left half drunk because it stretched our evening so long. I might give this place another try but honestly it was one of the most drawn out anticlimactic $400+ birthday celebrations (without desert) I have ever had. We could have done better at home for less.

First time and it won't be last. Can't even say anything negative about Starks…read more Me and the homies recently had a boys night and showed up for our 7:45 PM reservation. We arrived a little early and sat at the bar to grab drinks. The bartender was friendly with taking our orders and handing us several menus. At the time of our reservation, I walked along the corridor towards the rear and spoke with the hostess. We were seated immediately (This restaurant is larger on the inside than it appears on the outside). Our server was pleasant and informed us of the specials they had on the menu. I went with the NY Strip, goat cheese Mac n cheese (surprisingly good) and crispy fried calamari. I'm not the biggest fan of calamari, but I will admit that I'm now more willing to try it again if it's prepared how Starks prepares theirs. For the steak, sides, drinks, the total was somewhere around $150 which was to be expected. No disappoints here. I'll add this, if this is your first time going to Starks, be aware that the surrounding area has quite a bit of the unhoused community. Just FYI!

Just had our first visit and it blew us away. First of all, we went on a Monday night and the…read morereservations were fully booked, but we decided to try stopping in, which turned out to be smart, because they could seat us almost right away in the bar dining room, which was spacious and didn't feel like a bar area. They even accommodated my request not to be in sight of the TV. We were with my husband's cousin from Maui, an international traveler/diner, so he wanted to go all out, which meant we ordered the two specials - a dry aged porterhouse (T-bone) and a wagyu steak (not sure which cut), both medium rare. We got the bearnaise sauce and the green peppercorn sauce. I had one bite of each side or the t-bone, so NY and filet mignon, and two bites of the wagyu, which turned out to be my favorite. The reason I only had a those few bites of such exquisite, melt in your mouth meat was because of the irresistible courses we had leading up to it - wedge salad with tender diced bacon and pungent blue cheese dressing, potato skin fondue (like an elevated bacon nacho cheese dip), mussels in a flavorful broth that we sopped up with the addicting (on the house) bottomless basket of butter garlic parsley topped rolls (texture of Hawaiian rolls but not sweet). Then there was the scrumptious four cheese mac n cheese. I had to hold off on the giant onion rings (just ate the inside of one) to save room for the steak. We somehow also had drinks and dessert - I finished the first (which they made tart like I requested) and only tasted the last - a pineapple cheesecake, while my husband and his cousin demolished the rest along with creme brulee. Service was excellent and well timed. My husband's cousin said he hadn't expected the food to be so stellar, but that it even surpassed the swanky steakhouse we had gone to with him in SF on his last visit. We told him we weren't that surprised since we really like the other Stark restaurants we've been to, but this was the piece de la resistance. It was partly a celebration of our 25th anniversary coming up, so this feast was a blessing.

So now the place has plenty of seating inside and out. I was immediately greeted and seated in the new area. The server was friendly and professional. I ordered a diet Inca cola, Papa a la Huancaina, Aji de Guilliana and Alfajores. I was not disappointed on how good the place still is. I'm a son of Peruvian immigrants and the authentic flavors are on target. I also noticed that the same chef was style cooking too. I highly recommend Sazon because the flavors are authentic and you will come out totally satisfied. Check them out!

We both so enjoyed the Play, and we were searching Yelp for a restaurant (that we hadn't previously been to) that would complete our fun day in a very positive manner - and boy did we hit the jackpot at Eddie's!!! Our waitress, Melissa, was fabulous!! She was so sweet, Johnny on the spot, and attentive to our every request. I explained to her that I was single-sided deaf, and after that, she always approached the table from my good side! The drinks and food were delicious!! For our drinks, I had a White Sangria Spritz filled with diced mango, which was extremely refreshing, and my daughter had a glass of Zin that paired very well with the tasty and crisp (on the edges) Focaccia bread. We then split a yummy Caesar Salad with fresh dressing, and for our entrees, I chose the Chicken Marsala and my daughter the Lamb Ragu - both were savory & rich, and perfectly prepared & displayed!! We topped off the meal with two decadent desserts - Banana Apple Bread Pudding and Cannoli, and walked away feeling so satisfied and happy with our choice to dine at Eddie's - we'll definitely be back!!!

Got some advice from some older fisherman about what to do with our salmon catch last year. Decided…read moreto get the fish cut up professionally, highly recommend doing this. Especially if you don't have a freezer the size of a bathtub to place a couple of whole salmon in. The place is a warehouse and a commercial distribution center. You have to get a workers attention, (easy to do, they're all walking around) and have them lead to into the fish packing area. They ask you to put a hair net on and you go to a small room where a worker is cutting up sports fish. They'll smoke it, cut it into steaks, fillets or lox. Each are vacuum sealed individually so it keeps well and doesn't crowd up your freezer. Highly recommend the lox, a big hit every time we put it out for company. Didn't get a whole lot of favor when they smoked it for me, might do it myself next time.
