This is some of the best seafood I have had in a very long time! When I first walked in, I was a little hesitant, but a wonderful young server greeted me right away and encouraged me to try the food, assuring me that I wouldn't be disappointed--and she was absolutely right! The restaurant is beautiful, spacious, and very inviting. The outdoor area is dog-friendly, and the entire location is so charming that I would even recommend it for a date. You can also enjoy a nice walk around the area afterward. Most importantly, the seafood was incredibly fresh and delicious. I truly enjoyed my experience and will definitely be back! read more

I'd go here if this place is a last option. Other than that I wasn't happy with the calamari. The calamari was soggy, I could still taste the batter was wet and not fully fried. I appreciate the view of the water and the boats. Food came out fast and staff are very friendly. Free refills on fountain drinks!! read more

Please support this place. This place reminds me of seafood counters in Boston, and I really want to see it do well. They offer high quality seafood right on the water, but for some reason, it's never crowded. I've never understood why New England Lobster Market (Burlingame) is constantly slammed and this place on the water is quiet and peaceful. They offer proper lobster rolls and an assortment of other options like seafood baskets. read more

The staff coming in here was very welcoming and helpful and pointing out where to park. I made a difference interior is very long and narrow, but everybody gets a seat by the window, looking at all the boats in the marina. What a beautiful view. The area around here is under a lot of construction and so there's a lot of streets that are blocked off and it makes it sort of difficult to weave your way around here and figure out where everything is. But once you get down here, you know that it's famous for this area for a long time for being a place where people enjoy food and like to hang out and listen to good music. Walking by the tables, I looked down and everybody was really enjoying their foods and the platters are just loaded with it. Everything looked delicious. It'd be interesting if they have a combo platter. I also like that they do this crispy, giant prawns, man they look good. I'm chopping at the bit to get myself a first bite. Our server Austin was amazing so helpful and so patient while we were trying to figure out what to order. Everybody that works here actually was awesome. I started with a bowl of chowder. It's just like I make it at home and it was flawless. I loved it. I'd come here and have a big bowl of it with crusty bread for sure. That was followed by me having some of the best crispy shrimp that comes along with a side of garlic, french fries and you have your choices several types of fries. Unbeknownst to me until someone told me is by get one beer get one free so I enjoy the double beer. And my wife had the lobster Sando with the Home potato chips. Again another hit hit hit hit. Everything that came out of here you have to go to like five different places to find it and let you know the same thing in one location. I will definitely come back. I love this place. read more

Was gifted a gift card here - we decided to try this spot out on a warm Saturday afternoon. Located right near the water in Jack London Square. Parking is a bit difficult but we managed to find street parking a block away. Wasn't too crowded and there was plenty of seating inside. You order first and you find a table to sit, and they bring out the food to you. Self serve water is available. The food came out pretty quick! Thoughts: - Lobster roll (classic) was delicious! Generous amount of lobster. Would definitely get this again. Chips weren't too great though. - Fried shrimp basket was nice. Shrimp was crispy and tasty. Fries were also very crispy and flavorful. The sauces go well with the shrimp/fries. Coleslaw isn't the best though. - The crab nachos were surprisingly good. A nice cheese sauce combo with pico/avocado crema and a good amount of crab. - Garlic noodles were fine, nothing standout about them. - Mix and match basket with catfish, cod, and calamari (not pictured): Catfish was solid (would highly recommend, one of the favorites of the meal!), but would pass on the cod and calamari - a bit dry/fishy. Would recommend for a casual spot for seafood and a nice view! read more

Food was fantastic- one of the best ceviche's I have ever had, fresh and flavorful! We also had the grilled oysters which are on par with Hog Island's who are the standard for me and delicious lobster nachos! Great service, great views, great food!! Loved it! read more

Was randomly scrolling on yelp and saw this place. I don't remember it ever existing tbh. I usually go to the city or Marin area for lobster rolls and garlic noodles so I'm glad there's on nearby now! I just did take out and wanted to try the garlic noodles before committing myself to a lobster roll. There's street parking across the railroads or you can park in the loading zone for 10 minutes. There's a few chairs outside and lots of indoor seating. The view is pretty nice and overlooks the water. To order, it just checkout and goes pretty fast. I went on a slower day so I'm not sure how packed this place is on the weekend. They made my garlic noodles pretty fast and I went home to try it. Kinda just wish I ordered a lobster roll and enjoyed it there but meh. The noodles were soooooo goood! It was a pretty good portion for one and the price point is within reason. There's a few garlic noodles around the area that's too greasy or just filled with junk. Will definitely come back to sit down and enjoy the birds next time. read more

Seabreeze on the Dock is a waterfront dog-friendly gem for lunch or dinner. They have a pretty extensive menu with everything seafood: crab rolls, lobster rolls, seafood tacos, lobster nachos, Po Boys, Garlic Noodles, fried seafood baskets, seafood boils, soups, salads, burgers and desserts, along with a few non-seafood options like chicken and burgers. They also serve beer, wine and frozen margaritas. The menu is kid friendly with $10 options like chicken tenders, a burger, or cod and fries. During our visit we had lobster rolls with waffle fries ($33.95) and fish tacos ($16.95). The portions are large and reasonable for the quality. Tacos had large pieces of fresh fish topped with flavorful guacamole and salsa. The lobster rolls were large, with a large portion of lobster inside and no fillers. The rolls were soft and just the right size for the lobster inside. The waffle fries that accompanied it were also delicious. There is a decent amount of outdoor seating (about 8 tables of varying size), most of them shaded, and they have an outdoor heat lamp. There was plenty of room for my dog to stretch out, and although the food was upscale the place was casual. Service was friendly and we didn't have to wait very long for our food. The accompanying green space along Jack London is a great place to go for a walk or relax afterward, and if you want to take your food to go, they often offer a discount for ordering online. read more

This place has been bookmarked for some time now. There was a short wait you order then you can have a seat. They have indoor and outdoor seating. I love the large windows and being able to look out. I wanted to sit by the window but the tables werent clean. I ordered a coconut water probably the best one ive ever had. They have some good drink options. I started with the lobster bisque which was really good. To eat I tried the hawaiian shrimp with garlic noodles it was pretty good. I also had the crab with the mixture sauce their sauce is really good. I would definitely be back to try more. read more

Seabreeze On the Dock has a 5-star location. Time things right and you can snag a table with beautiful views of the Oakland estuary out two huge picture windows. Of course, you'll also need to eat and drink while enjoying those seats and that's where the complications come in. Seabreeze has a big menu featuring seafood in many iterations. My party of two opted for fish tacos (Cod, $16.95) and a fried seafood plate (calamari, fries, & slaw, about $22). The service model here is fast-casual; order and pay at a counter then food is brought to your table when ready. Service was great but I couldn't say the same for the food. What should've been a drizzle of spicy sauce atop the fish tacos was more like a ladle-full. The wildly excessive application of sauce made consuming the tacos ridiculously messy and rendered the tacos themselves unappetizing in appearance. The calamari presented a different issue. Pieces were fried (possibly battered?) to such a degree that it was difficult to discern any flavor or shape beneath. I detected no tentacles, each piece was just a crisp-fried blob, not un-tasty but also not tasting of calamari. The accompanying slaw was a non-starter as well but the fries - as if more fried fare were needed - were good. I'd order quite differently - and very carefully - upon a return visit to Seabreeze and ask for any saucy topping to be served on the side. read more

We were craving seafood on a beautiful Sunday afternoon, so we decided to stroll around Jack London Square. My boyfriend suggested we try this spot, and I'm glad we did! He ordered the King Crab legs and a dozen fresh oysters for us, and not gonna lie, they were sooo fresh. The way they grilled the crab legs was impressive like the flavor really seeped into the meat. They served it on a bed of veggies with melted butter for dipping, which made it even better. The oysters were creamy and delicious, and you could still taste the ocean (in the best way possible). The location is great its right on the waterfront and the restaurant was clean with a welcoming vibe. Our server was incredibly nice, always smiling, and his good energy was contagious. Major plus: the whole place overlooks the marina which added to the relaxing experience. Will we come back? Probably not anytime soon cos it's definitely not the most budget-friendly spot. But to be fair, you're paying for the freshness and quality. I'd love to return to try other dishes! For reference: one large crab leg with three smaller ones, a dozen oysters, and a glass of wine came out to about $110. Overall, definitely a must-try! read more

4.5! Really close the a 5! Hubby and I had a Sunday Funday lunch and we really enjoyed ourselves. I LOVE the location and how you're sitting right along the water. Perfect place to take a walk before or after your meal. You order at the counter and they deliver your food to you after. Staff were friendly the whole time and even though they don't take the order at the table, they checked up on us a couple times. Bloody Mary 5/5: it came LOADED, just how I like it. I was so excited for all the snacks in my drink LOL. I also like how it's "seasoned", I'm not a fan of bloodies that taste only like tomato juice. Oysters 4.5/5: fresh and good sized. Def would order again. Clam chowder 5/5: I didn't personally try it but my husband enjoyed it a lot. Oyster and Catfish po boy 4/5: I liked the oyster po boy a lot. Cat fish was tasty and crispy but I wish the fish itself was a little thicker. It'd be better if they added a little more sauce or butter to the bread. Would love to come back again this summer! read more

Seabreeze stayed open later this evening to accommodate people that went on the free Harbor Tour sponsored by the Port of Oakland. They had coupons offering a BOGO fry basket which we took advantage of. There were more than 30 from my group and they set up a section in the back of the restaurant for our seating. The line to order food was about 20 deep when we got there. It took about 15 minutes to order food. Some of our friends were already eating by the time we found seats. We weren't given numbers for our order (they were saving the numbers for smaller groups) so we had to see what the server was bringing out to see if it was our order. It was a little chaotic, but that lady did really well running back and forth and she even tried to clean off a table but was just too busy to do so! We get our food, and then had to wait for her to grab us utensils. Water was self-serve which was good. The food was good. Fries were nice and crispy. We had the calamari basket and cod basket. We had to go up to the counter to get tarter sauce and vinegar. The baskets came with a cole slaw that was decent too. We also had a hamburger. I didn't taste it, but it looked good. In all, it was a fun experience to go on a harbor tour and then eat good seafood! read more

Seabreeze On The Dock - Lobster roll and chips - Seafood Near Me - Oakland, California

This location is beautiful with big windows looking out over the water & boats docked right next door. The service is minimal with the casual style ordering & then receiving a number. We sit & wait under 8 min to get our food. My total with tip was 40$ so I was expecting a decent portion of food. For the price point the portions are ok but I think could be more generous for eating in & tipping. My friend had garlic noodles with grilled salmon which she said was good but didn't rave about it.My food was ok, I thought the crab roll was actually the only delicious item with a good amount of fresh , real crab...however on the smaller side but thats understandable. The fries & coleslaw were an up charge of 3.50 each & portions were too small, plus didn't taste great. Definitely frozen fries from a bag. Ugh I liked this spot & do recommend ( since the seafood was fresh) but will not return. read more

Date: 5/11/2025 Time:12:45 PM 64° Sunny Happy Mother's Day to all the moms. I decided to celebrate Mother's Day at Seabreeze on the Dock with my daughter. I did not know what to expect, as I have never dined here. This location used to be IL Pescatore many years ago. The ambiance is nice (3.5 stars) with view of the estuary and boats, but everything else leaves me a lot to be desired. No wait staff to take your order. The drill is get in line, tell the employee what you are ordering, pay for the food, have a seat and wait for your meal. Ahh...cafeteria style like Jollibee or some fast food restaurant. Indeed it is very casual. I start with my favorite beverage - an Arnold Palmer. The Arnold Palmer is a taste test for me to determine whether the food is tasty, on point, good or not. Well, the Arnold Palmer is okay (3 star), which means it barely passed. Eats: for me, the Hawaiian style grilled salmon with garlic noodles. Daughter has the fried catfish basket with waffle fries. Looks and presentation of the meals can be deceiving when it comes to eating the food. The glaze on my salmon is a tad salty. The salmon itself sans the glaze is on point - moist and fresh (3.5 stars). The garlic noodles are rated at 3.5 stars. The catfish and waffle fries are underwhelming, lacking in seasoning (3 stars). In other words, bland. Nothing to write home about. Cajun style? Not! Service was okay. The employees were nice and courteous. Future visits? Might, then might not depending on my mood. Overall rating and taking into consideration at this time: 3 stars. read more

Great location by the bay and you can see the boats parked in the water. Location and view are great. Food was OK. Started with half dozen oysters of the day. It was 1 type of oyster but the oysters varied greatly in size. Few oysters had rocks/sand particles inside, oysters could have been cleaned better. Next, I ordered 2 rolls with chips. 1. Lobster Roll with butter, served hot on a brioche roll with a side of chips. 2. Lobster roll with lobster salad/mix served chilled with the Seabreeze aioli on brioche roll. Both rolls were good, not amazing. I preferred the chilled lobster roll over the lobster roll tossed in butter. The chilled lobster roll had so much flavor and more filling. What I was really sad about was that the Lobster rolls are served with chips now, they took away the fries option. I prefer fries over chips, especially with my Lobster rolls! read more

Came after the Giants game and so glad we did! Sandra took our order and had some good recommendations. She had a great personality as well. We got the lobster rolls (one classic one hot) with fries and a bowl of chowder. It was delicious. The fries are battered and perfect for dipping in the chowder. The lobster rolls were FULL of meat and was fresh! I left very satisfied and will definitely be coming back! Sorry no pics as we chowed down before I thought to take some. read more

I ordered their salad with 1/4 pound lobster on DoorDash and clam chowder and was so very pleasantly surprised by the portions and quality. I was lightweight expecting small dry lobster meat over my salad, but it was a hefty portion with a ton of lobster, totally worth the ~$35. As for the clam chowder, they use real clams, and are generous with it! Very impressed with the quality of food and will 100% order again. read more

Looking at all of the positive reviews I am surprised by our recent experience at Seabreeze on the Dock and wondering if it was an off night. We went there on a weekday right around 5pm and there were plenty of indoor and outdoor seats. On a chilly night they provide heating lamps for the outdoor seating. We walked in and ordered right away. As some have mentioned it is a pricey establishment for what it is. Yes nice location with views of the marina, but inside it has a fast food vibe. We ordered - Calamari and fries - was ok no real flavor other than the fried - Small bowl of Clam chowder - I was surprised by the reviews and to find that the only flavor we could taste was of the ocean. A handful of the clams (whole pieces) were grainy which was not pleasant to eat - Ceviche with Chips - was decent, however for the price the portion was small. Would be easier to eat with chips if the shrimps where not whole pieces For three items our bill came to a little over $53 which is pricey. After the lackluster flavors and the feeling of eating sand from the ocean we will not be returning. read more

So pros and cons... I ordered on DoorDash 2 lobster rolls. For lunch the next day. Opened it up and as you can see they gave me ONE. Now the actual flavor of the item. It's good! Heated it up for 15 seconds and it was sooooo buttery and good. It is pricy, and it's priced $5 MORE on doordash than in person pricing. I just wish I would have got my second sammich and the fries I ordered ugh. The roll is an okay size but if you got an above average appetite one roll won't do. 3/5 for the mistake and ruining my lunch haha. read more

I have no issue paying crazy amounts for a good lobster roll- unfortunately this place does not deliver. The lobster is just sort of bland tasting and unfortunately so was the cod in their tacos.

Our experience was disappointing. The margaritas were not good at all. We were also with a fragile elderly woman who needed just a small meal, but the employee behind the counter refused to let her order from the kids' menu, even after we explained that she would only eat a couple of bites. There was no flexibility or compassion, and the employee came across as unfriendly. A little kindness and understanding would have gone a long way. read more
