California Fish Market Restaurant offers "freshest seafood" in North Beach, with a lively atmosphere and excellent service. Enjoy simply prepared fish dishes and "delicious" offerings like spaghetti neri with clams. Ideal for seafood lovers, though portions can be small and vegetarian options limited. Great for outdoor dining and people-watching.

We’ve been coming here for lunch on Fridays for several month and always had great service with Alejandro. We order several dishes to share and the food is delicious.

It was a perfect evening outdoor and the Fish Market has the perfect location in North Beach. The Spanish octopus is what I always order.

Top notch Italian seafood place in bustling North Beach neighborhood. Excellent service. Great value. Lively atmosphere. Will come again. Grilled octopus was terrific. Linguine with clams cooked perfectly and piping hot. Fresh sourdough bread. Street parking is difficult so best to Uber or Lyft or be prepared to walk up and down Telegraph Hill.

Linguine Granchio had scraps of crab meat which was very disappointing and looked NOTHING like the picture. It was our mistake for not saying something when our food arrived :( The ambiance and location in North Beach were great, and our server was very nice and accommodating but the food value and quality were just not it- wouldn't go back.

The food here is delicious! We sat outside and the people watching is great. The Caesar salad is perfect to share. Full of flavor. The spaghetti neri with clams & squid was excellent. And our server was very helpful in wine selection & attentiveness. We will definitely return.

We were misled by the description of the special we ordered. We asked about it when the dish was delivered, but the server just laughed at us. The dish was described as having a lobster sauce and that it came with a side of mashed potatoes but it looked like a dish that was a regular item on the menu (with lemon and caper sauce and came with a side of asparagus).

Un buon ristorante di pesce italiano. Cioppino molto buono e ricco di frutti di mare. Linguine alle vongole buone ma piene di pepe.

This restaurant is reliable. A good place to go for simply prepared fish dishes. Oysters are reasonably priced and always fresh.
