baja tacos
Xochi A.

Seafood Station! This a family owned and run business and they are really sweet and offer GREAT quality seafood. This is a clean small place with 8 tables and few bar tops. I ordered the baja tacos to-go. They come with two fried fish tacos and a side salad. Ok the side salad has a simple but delicious vinegrette! This order was also so big I could've shared with another person. You would think two tacos and a small side salad is enough for one person but the tacos were HUGE! The service was great and attentive but most importantly they have FRESH & QUALITY seafood! They have salads, pastas, seafood boils, sandwiches and a decent kids menu. A must try if you are in the Bernal Heights area!

Dungeness Crab & Shrimp Boil
Zizo E.

Awesome seafood boil spot in the Bernal heights area. Family owned business and the staff are super friendly! We got 1lb of the Dungeness crab and 1lb of the shrimp with the mixed Cajun and garlic butter sauce. Loved that the shrimp was already de-shelled so you can just get to eating. I can describe the food more but I think the photo does all the talking. Intimate seating and the place was clean. We were able to walk in without reservations.

Crawfish
Hanh H.

We discovered this place completely by chance--and we're so glad we did. The space is small and unassuming, but the dishes that come out of the kitchen are anything but. It has quickly become one of our favorite spots for seafood in San Francisco, especially for Dungeness crab, which is always incredibly fresh. This visit, we decided to combine two favorites. We ordered a whole Dungeness crab in their "All That and a Bag of Chips" sauce (yes, it actually comes with a bag of chips!) and added a pound of crawfish. The dish arrived generously coated in the house sauce, which was rich, bold, and impossible to resist. We ended up ordering a side of garlic bread just to soak up every last bit. To drink, we paired the meal with their house Sauvignon Blanc, which complemented the seafood perfectly. The service here is also exceptional. Ramzy is incredibly friendly, attentive, and always a pleasure to chat with, making the experience feel even more welcoming. We're usually in the Bay Area visiting family in Oakland, but we happily make the drive into San Francisco just to eat here. It's truly that good.

FISH AND CHIPS Clam chowder  Wine

I love coming to Bernal to meet up with friends. The sun has always been out on this side of the city. It bustles with just the right amount of people, dogs, and cars, but not overwhelmingly so. This last visit was no different! My good friend made a reservation at Seafood Station for five at 12:30pm last Saturday. One of us in the group is pescatarian. This place had just what we needed - seafood and a bottle of wine to celebrate friendship and good wishes. The complimentary bread and olive oil was delicious. Some of the group shared oysters. A couple of them got steamed mussels and a couple of us got fish & chips. I also got a cup of clam chowder and I was not disappointed! I can say that everyone enjoyed their food. The service was stellar. We were checked on regularly and well taken care of. Seafood Station is not a huge space, but it is a decent size with several tables. I recommend this place if you're looking for a great seafood spot!

1lb shrimp crawfish clams mussels
Wen L.

Clam chowder pot pie was good! Perfect crunch on the pie and chowder flavor was good. For the seafood boil, we got the all in sauce which included a mix of cajun and garlic butter at medium spice level. The boil was not bad, but the crawfish was a little on the dry side.

STEAMED MUSSELS
Robbie M.

Loved this place. Casual restaurant with a nice variety of seafood and fish at excellent prices. We each ordered something different. The salads were fresh and ample . The kale salad was amazing and they added large shrimp to the salad. The wedge salad was huge. She ordered a cup of clam chowder and it was the size of a bowl. My sister had the mussels with a side of fries. The mussels came in a nice broth with fresh tomatoes. I had grilled Bronzino perfectly grilled with nice crisp skin and grilled corn on the cob and grilled broccoli. My bother had the cod with a sauce and veggies. We loved that everything was fresh not canned. And lots of food. The key lime pie was homemade. We will be back.

Seafood boil
Mia Y.

Seafood station is an incredible neighborhood joint with excellent service and fresh seafood! We ordered the boil and the steamed seafood combo for dinner. For drinks we got a bottle of wine, and for $35 it's a great deal! For both entrees the seafood was cooked perfectly and everything was very well seasoned. I love how they used chicken broth because it added more flavor and gave it more depth. The boil was delicious and I wanted to dip everything in it! The white wine brother for the steamers was light but still full of flavor. I will definitely make the trek back and get some apps and more seafood!

Solid competitor (if not better) of Sotto Mare Hands down one of the best seafood spots in San Francisco. It's a little farther out, which I think keeps it off most people's radar--but that just adds to the hidden gem feel. We made the drive out and it was so worth it. We were blown away by the food. We ordered the shrimp, mussels, and clams in a lemon-based soup dish, plus a half crab and crawfish broil with the mixed seasoning and spicy crab--it was TO DIE FOR. Everything was incredibly fresh, perfectly seasoned, and packed with flavor. Honestly, it gives Sotto Mare a run for its money--and in my opinion, it was better. The ambiance was more relaxed, there was no wait, and the staff couldn't have been more friendly. They even helped us taste through all the wines so we could pick our favorite bottle. We ended up loving the Pinot Grigio, the Chardonnay was also great, but the Sauvignon Blanc wasn't our favorite. If you're craving incredible seafood without the chaos or long lines, this place is a must. Can't wait to go back!

CIOPPINIO
Abbie N.

My sister and I came in for happy hour on Tuesday. Service was great and food was good. We really liked the calamari, crab cakes, raw oysters, and cioppini. We ordered the garlic fries too but it didn't have enough garlic or maybe they were using jar garlic, I tasted more Parmesan than anything else. But I will definitely come back for seafood!

I wanted a seafood boil so went to the closest place to me. The taste was not as I expected but it was still pretty yummy. I expected it to taste like a Louisiana style seafood boil (it didn't unfortunately). It took about 20 minutes for my food to arrive. I give this place 4 stars because the staff were really kind and there were lots of other food items that looked so delicious! I really want to come back someday and try the other menu options!

Cioppino
Mariya G.

The BEST CIOPPINO I've ever had! The tomato base is so flavorful with lots of mild spices, onions, shallots, and herbs. The seafood was cooked perfectly! I like my mussels and clams a little undercooked but the shrimp, fish and crab was absolutely perfect. Even high end restaurants overcook their seafood, especially the shrimp. The cioppino was excellent here. My husband tried the clam chowder which he said was the best he'd ever had as well! Not too thick and very flavorful. He rated his fish and chips a 10/10! Across the board this family owned restaurant blew us away. The owners took our order and served our food. They were very kind and attentive. The restaurant itself is spacious and very clean. This place is a hidden treasure. We might regret sharing but they deserve the attention. Highly recommend!

Clam Chowder
Amy L.

Solid 4.5 stars We arrived early in SF around 530 ish. Found parking a few blocks away but it wasn't so difficult to find parking. We were the first ones in the restaurant for dinner. We ordered a bowl of clam chowder. Enough for four of us. Cajun cod, fish and chips, mussels and ciopinno. The complementary bread went well with my clam chowder and the mussels. The cilantro chorizo add a bit of spice and sour the sauce was delightful. I tried a bite of the ciopinno with the cheese bread. The sauce was delicious dipping with the garlic bread. I think the best dishes out of the four was the mussels and ciopinno. But we will be back to try some additional dishes.

clam chowder pot pie
Gabi M.

Go here if you like seafood! They cook with canola & olive oil. We got there early, 5p on a rainy spring day. The inside is small & cozy, like a neighborhood cafe - indeed several people stopped by for takeout who seemed to know the staff well. Only 10 or so small tables, and fairly close together. We were warmly greeted, my questions quickly answered. We had the clam chowder pot pie, fish & chips, and crab legs (more like a whole small crab!) in amazing broth (your choice of flavors). Everything was fresh & yummy. The clam chowder is quite rich (heavy cream?) with a puff pastry top. The bread is homemade or made nearby, yum. Our neighbors also really enjoyed their meal - we have to try the crab cakes next time. Sadly we had no room for dessert, so I never got ask what the creme brulee flavor is all about. I hope to be back sooner than later.

I was craving seafood boil and could not justify driving an hour down to SJ and waiting in a…read moremassive line to get it, so I decided to try out Cajun Bowl again. I used the promotion on the website to get 2 free pounds of shrimp as well as the #7 combo (shrimp, mussels, crawfish). I got the combo in the super ultimate sauce. The flavor of the sauce was pretty good, and you get a lot of it in the bag. It was interesting because it had a bit of a tomato-y scent to it, almost like creamy spaghetti sauce, but it also reminded me of instant ramen flavoring (lol)?? I like that the sauce didn't taste as salty or as unhealthy as Boiling Crab's sauce, which has a ton of butter and leaves me chugging water afterwards. As for the seafood itself, the shrimp was good but a bit overcooked. My favorite part of shrimp is eating the heads, but these heads did not taste very good or fresh. Similarly, I got a few mussels that were closed which means they were dead before cooking and have to be tossed. I also wish they had a combo that was shrimp + mussels + clams because I don't really like crawfish. I do like that the combo comes with some sides, but the sausage pieces should definitely be bigger than some skinny slices. Overall taste of the bag was fine, and it was piping hot so seems like it was really freshly cooked when I picked up. Cajun Bowl hit the spot and I'm glad I have this option close to home!

The service was alright however the servers kept leaving us every few minutes and it took forever for them to take our order. We got the shrimp mac and cheese (spicy) and the 1lb of snow crab legs (mild) with the super ultimate sauce with an addition of sausage and broccoli. The shrimp mac and cheese was very delicious and the crab legs were large and meaty. While pretty good, the crab was a bit overcooked and the sauce we had gotten lacked a lot of flavour and was thick and pasty rather than seasoned well. The sausage was very good though. Overall the experience was quite nice but lacking in some departments.

We chose Dungeness crab for our combo and added extra potatoes & sausage. We also ordered the grilled squid and soft shell crab salad. The soft shell crab salad was good; The crab was just a bit over-fried. The grilled squid was great. Nice, chewy texture of the squid & the sauce it came in complimented the dish well.

On the way back home from SJ to SF, I decided to try Shaking Crab. I called in my takeout order and it was ready about 15 mins later. There was an additional plastic bag fee of $0.25. It was a good amount of food. The hubby isn't really into seafood so it was basically all mine. Took quite a few days to finish. Taste wise, the sauce was very bland. Where was the savory spicy goodness?! It just fell sort. I didn't really have anything at home to spice it up with so I just ate it as is. Fulfilled the seafood craving, but I wanted more flavor. I guess if you're in a pinch and really want some cajun, this may tick the box. But there are definitely better places out there. REVIEW #3854

Everything we ordered did not disappoint: ​Fried Chicken: Crispy, golden, and classic. The meat itself is mild, but it works well with the sides, the punchy, savory collard greens balance out every bite. ​Creole Crawfish Étouffée: Rich, deeply flavorful, and comforting. ​Fried Pickles: Crispy, tangy, and great on their own, but pro tip: put a fried pickle right on your spoonful of étouffée. The crunchy, vinegary pop against that rich crawfish sauce is incredible. ​Pork: Perfectly seasoned with the perfect tenderness with just the right amount of satisfying bite and chewiness. ​Dr. Pepper Simmered Short Ribs (Daily Special): Boneless, melt-in-your-mouth tender, and beautifully balanced with sweet and savory notes. ​Side Note: The chicken, pork, and short ribs all came with mashed potatoes, and the way they season those potatoes managed to complement each distinct main dish perfectly. ​Honestly, not a single miss on the table.

Writing a review like this is difficult for several reasons, and I very rarely leave negative…read morereviews. As someone who has works in the restaurant industry, I understand firsthand how challenging this business can be, and I have a tremendous amount of respect for the people who work hard to make a dining experience memorable. That's why I don't say this lightly when I say that our food experience tonight was extremely disappointing. We ordered the pork chop, which was okay, but the cabbage side was honestly hard to eat. I'm not sure if it was intended to be slaw or steamed cabbage, but it was essentially wet cabbage with very little flavor. The potatoes were decent, although the portion was quite small and they had a texture that tasted almost like boxed mashed potatoes. The biscuits were extremely dry and hard, and unfortunately, the butter served alongside them wasn't very good either. The spinach that came with the special was, without exaggeration, one of the worst parts of the meal. It had a very unpleasant taste that made us question whether something was off with it. There really wasn't another way to describe it. For a $44 plate, I expect the steak to be cooked properly, the sides to be flavorful and thoughtfully prepared, and the entire dish to feel worth the price. We also ordered a peach soda that was $10, which already feels very expensive for a soft drink. What was even more surprising was finding out that refills were not complimentary. That's something I feel should be clearly communicated when ordering. This is supposed to be soul food, a style of cooking known for bold, comforting, flavorful food. Unfortunately, our meal just didn't deliver that. Everyone at our table left feeling unsatisfied. We spent $163 for three entrées, three drinks, and two orders of biscuits. When you spend that kind of money and the food is exceptional, you leave feeling like it was money well spent. When the experience falls this far short, it's understandably frustrating and leaves you questioning the value. I do want to give credit where it's due: our server was wonderful. We had absolutely no complaints about the service. He was attentive, pleasant, and did her job well. I genuinely hope this feedback is received in the spirit it's intended. I know how difficult the restaurant business is, and I'm not looking to tear anyone down. I simply believe that when a meal costs this much, the quality, flavor, portions, and overall execution should reflect the price.
