Located on the second floor of the Fish Market is the latest stab at a good, upscale seafood restaurant. For those of you who have "experienced" the Fish Market, this is definitely a step up (literally and figuratively). One enters the Fish Market restaurant and waltzes past the lines and noise to travel up one flight of stairs to another... More

I took a friend here tonight who was just in town and wanted seafood. I live in the City but she was staying at a hotel near the airport and it seemed to far to drive to the city and back. Found this on Open Table...had been to the Fish Market before but not their more "high end" dining location.... More

The food is fresh, well prepared and tasty. The meat dishes are even delicious. The service is attentive. One of the best in San Mateo.

I am in California for a week every other month and have been to this place numerous times. This is not a mind blowing super creative food experience. The menu barely changes and the meals are pretty simple. However, the fish is one of the best I have had. I personally love the way they grill them with a simple... More

Made reservations, so there was no wait. (Thought I'd made reservations for the less expensive The Fish Market downstairs though!) After two weeks in CA I was still trying to find a seafood dinner. The one here was good but nothing out of the ordinary. There was as large a selection of seafood as I'd seen anywhere in CA, but... More

fresh fish - good clam chowder - duckett's bucket is my hubby's favorite. Its like 2 pounds of shellfish in a bucket!
