We went and sat down on the back patio and the food was all delivered within 10 minutes and piping hot. The fish and chips was delicious and fresh. The shrimp cocktail was filled with large prawns. The portions were so generous we took the chowder home for later. It's nice to be able to get some fresh good seafood without having to drive all of the way to the coast. We will definitely be eating there again.

Great value and tasty food!…read more The fish and chips three piece was HUGE for the price, a great value for sure and the fish was really nicely cooked and tasty. The fries were so abundant it was almost comical, again love the value! They've got a decent drink selection, the one place the value isn't here is drinks as they are a little expensive for cans. The outdoor patio seating is fine, but nothing to write home about. The inside of the restaurant is also a fish market so not much ambiance here. The staff was super nice and helpful. I Will certainly be back!

We've gone here a few times over the years, so I kind of take it for granted how nice of a…read morerestaurant this is. The interior is open and spacious and blends in with the surroundings (harbor, water and park.) The food is well prepared and flavorful. I usually get a pasta dish and she likes their fish. The portions are generous, the prices reasonable and the service is prompt and friendly. I know this review isn't very specific but I think if you look over the menu and see something that sounds good to you, go and check it out, you won't be disappointed.

I have been going to Smiths Landing for years and it has always been good…read more today I took my girlfriend. It was her first time, first of all I asked the guy for a certain mocktail. He said that they don't make them there that I was confused with another place similar which I'm sure the bartender probably could've made it but more importantly, I ordered the same thing as my girlfriend and her daughter we all ordered the shrimp taco plate, , and the guy served me fish, which I am actually allergic to fish. I am able to eat shellfish but not regular fish I didn't notice it because I thought maybe they just deep-fried the shrimp but I didn't notice or realize it until after I ate a whole taco. He had put it on the bill and then I realized that's why it seemed different. I also asked him to remove the cabbage and he did not do that. He did refund the shrimp plate so I am giving him a star for that, but I'm just hoping that I don't have a reaction to the fish!! We feel like he never checked back or refilled our water.I am just really disappointed by the service today. I know people can make mistakes, but it wasn't just the fish tacos. It was the overall attitude from him and his service. I know I will go back because I enjoy the food and the service on a regular basis, I just hope next time we get somebody a little more efficient..

Most of them have clean intestines, but do pay attention if u don't want to eat their poop. There were probably only 5 ish that had the inside of the head blackened. The mussels were gigantic and delicious. Sausage was a bit salty. Potato is delicious, as well as the corn. Sauce is really nice, spicy level is fair. The hot for me was like an enjoyable kind of hot. I do find the corn stuck in my teeth tho, maybe bring your own floss just in case. Overall very nice! Would come again.

Their posted hours on the door as well as on Yelp say that they are open until 9 PM. When I walked in, there was no worker to be found. A young man emerged, and he looked confused. I asked what time they were open until. He said 9 PM. It seemed like he finally realized that I wanted to eat, and he tried to take my order to go, although he didn't give me a menu. I asked if I could be seated and get a menu. He awkwardly said OK. After I sat down, he came over and said that the cook might leave early, and that I might want to hurry up and order. I politely excused myself and said that I would come back another time. I then drove to another nearby restaurant that also is open till 9 PM. I didn't get there until 9:35 PM, but they served me and were very pleasant, and I had a great dinner. I don't understand why a business would post their hours and then not abide by them.

It's so diverse and can barely ever miss back home but out here it's hard . With that being said I was craving some good ol fried catfish . I looked them up on Yelp and seen they have my favorite which is fried scallops so I said let's give them a try . This is a seafood market that sells fried food . Called my order in ahead of time. The person who took my order was polite and helpful . I got wing and catfish combo and wanted prawn and scallop combo . Unfortunately they were out of prawns by 4 in the afternoon . So I got catfish and scallops instead . Overall it was good . The catfish was fresh and melted like butter in my mouth . Chicken was nice sized chicken . The scallops were big not the little ones and cooked perfectly not chewy at all . The breading was fried right, not too thick or over seasoned . Fries could have been cooked a little harder but besides that my fish craving was fulfilled. I would try them out again .

They were also a good size for the price. 8/10 Fried cat fish was ok and would not get again. Still unsure if it was actually cat fish because it didn't really taste like it. Also unsure if these were frozen or freshly battered. Not too much flavor. 1/10 Fried Mac n cheese was probably the best thing. Crispy, cheesy and not too salty. 10/10 Potato salad had too much mayo for my liking and was too sweet. 1/10 Peach cobbler wasn't too sweet but overall really bland. The filling/crust had almost no taste and had a weird texture. 1/10 Banana pudding was too sweet but had good banana flavor. Pudding was a nice/smooth texture - 4/10 Fried meals had ok fries but were big portions.

Spur of the moment decision to come here…read more There was plenty of seating and parking (off street and street), so that's definitely a plus. I've been here a few times and there has always been parking available. The inside is pretty small but they also have exterior seating, which on a nice day can absolutely be incredible. Our server was good, maybe on the slower side, but there were only two of them taking care of all the tables. He was friendly, and responsive when we made a request. I had the Philly Cheesesteak which was flavored well. My only complaint was the meat was a little dry. The bread was good but maybe if it was toasted could have elevated it just a bit. The daughter had the shrimp Alfredo. Different story. It was absolutely amazing! They gave 6 fairly descent size shrimp which was cooked well. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the Alfredo sauce was YUMMY! I will definitely go back and order the Alfredo pasta next time. Overall recommend this place. It's a local business that I would say is above average.

We don't always roll like that, but we tend to try to beat the rush so we can head back to our Trilogy Rio Vista Compound and nap. Being early was not a problem. The Owners/Hosts were courteous and sat us right away. We ordered the 20 Ribeye's both. Sides of creamed spinach and Brussel sprouts and two salads, one Caesar and one house. Also cream of mushroom soup. Presentation was spectacular. The salads were crisp and garnished with edible orchids. The soup was creamy and soothing. We chose, at the suggestion of our host the Bowtie Petite Syrah from the Macaully Estate Winery. Delicious, perfect temperature. The steaks were cooked perfect to medium. The rub was spiced right, and no steak sauce was even pondered. We topped it off with the New York Cheesecake and even though one of the Blueberries sadly fell off the table during the mandatory photo session, it did not hold it against us. Blueberries are naturally sad by comedy nature, so it held it martyrdom with pride. We will go back. We will recommend. We will try with all our might to save and ingest both blueberries on the next excursion. So help us God.

I ordered a cocktail and it was quite good. From there things went downhill. I ordered lamb chops, med-rare with chimichurri. What I got was essentially raw chops with a clump of something that looked like dry grass. I asked the server to have them cooked a little more. I must say the pleasant attitude I encountered upon arrival was still there when the dish was sent back. I attached a photo of the raw chops and the fake chimichurri, along with a collage of what chimichurri SHOULD look like. I didn't taste the mess they put in front of me. As nice as they are, they don't check and see if the food is acceptable once they serve it to you. I had to wait quite a while and catch the server as she was leaving the only other occupied table in the restaurant to request a better cook on the lamb. Next I had the lobster. It was a little overcooked, edible, but somewhat rubbery/chewy near the tapered end. The service was great,but the food was only so-so.Not sure if I'll return as it seems a bit pricey for the quality of the meal.

I ordered the WTF Burger, and he made sure to double-check how I wanted my burger cooked and what I wanted on the side. I really appreciated the attention to detail.

Hungry, depleted, lost (and likely protein-deficient due to the loss of my beloved cheese omelet with avocado), I scoured the earth in search of another breakfast spot nearby, but none were worthy. They just didn't offer up the amazing flavor and friendly faces (hey Omar, Ross, Gaby and da crew!) that Big Daddy's always did. Then, one day, I was picking up a takeout order at a nearby brekkie spot and as I'm strollin' along, Ross himself runs out of their new location to greet me. It was a beautiful reunion and a welcome sight. I finally realized why I hadn't had my omelet in so long even though they had only relocated to downtown Pittsburg: the name change left me totally in the dark! But now that I'm back in the Light(house), I'm back to being a regular fixture in my old hangout. And it's just as good as it always was. Thanks, Big Daddy!
