Came with a wedding party for a group lunch at Princess Seafood Restaurant on Friday…read more I got the full crab roll with clam chowder and a cherry cider to wash it all down. The crab was sweet and delicious. They definitely did not skimp out on the amount of crab in the crab roll which was great. I liked the creamy and thickness of the clam chowder and was really glad that it wasn't too salty which is usually my fear. I really enjoyed the cherry cider as my beverage. It is refreshing, fruity, and light. It tastes like juice pretty much. Just a nice touch of sweetness and acidity to balance out the meal. I was grateful to the employees for getting our orders out in a timely fashion. There was a bit of a mix up with some of the orders but it happens with big parties and for the most part everything was correct! Overall, I had a great meal here and would definitely come back next time I'm in the area.

If you're thinking this place feels like any other seafood place in a tourist town (malibu,…read moremonterey, etc), then prepare to have your viewpoints altered. While the checkered paper, fresh seafood, outdoor seating and walk up to order may all be part of the experience, this is probably the best seafood I've had in one of these beach towns. I ordered a shrimp cocktail, crab sandwich with chowder and blackened cod plate. The shrimp cocktail contains a surprising amount of shrimp for the price - and you can definitely taste how fresh the shrimp is! The crab sandwich was pretty good and light, but I feel like the blackened cod overshadowed everything. The cod was so flavorful, and you get 4-5 pieces. It's a cajun style seasoning where you can taste the spice - to a point it may be a little too spicy for people with low spice tolerance. The bread is buttered and the salad is fresh - you could not ask for a better meal. The clam chowder is a little different from most other places; they add some seasonings and spice to the chowder so it's not the traditional creamy, heavy soup you're expecting. It's like clam chowder premium, I prefer their version over a more traditional version. The view of the turquoise colored water is amazing from their indoor patio, as it's covered in windows. They also have an outdoor patio where you can take pictures of the color. The line to order was quick, but we saw that the line can get long with extended wait times depending on customer numbers. Water is self serve, and you also bus your own plates. When visiting Fort Bragg, you have to come to eat here, for the food, the view, and the service!

Wife suggested we try somewhere new and I saw this place on Yelp. Ordered: Fish and chips, Clam Chowder on Bread bowl, Fried Calamari, one beer, one lemonade. The place is an outside place filled with people. Vibe was casual and the lady who help me was nice. I was looking forward to the fish and chips, and these were very disappointing. One plus was that there were huge chunks of fish, and it was a pretty good size helping. However, the fish and batter had very little flavor, and there was very little crispness to it. The fries were ok, but nothing to write home about. Felt like frozen chunks for fish with a meh batter and frozen fries. It was ok, but definitely nothing to write home about. The clam chowder was essentially a potato soup. There were more chunks of potato than there WAS soup. Might as well have ordered potato soup. It was also very much lacking in flavor. The bread was cold, and again, felt like store bought bread that I could have gotten at Safeway. Not good. Now, the Calamari is where I got a surprise. I'm betting there's no way IN HELL that calamari was made or breaded in the restaurant. I'm betting that calamari was bought in a store somewhere and then deep fried. Don't get me wrong, it was the best thing I bought (tasty, peppery, crunchy, with a good dip), but it was so flavorful, I'm willing to BET the same people who made those fish and chips and that clam chowder IN NO WAY could season that calamari that way. That's my logic, and I stand by it. In short, I was hoping to have a good lunch, but left disappointed and let down by the good recommendation on Yelp. Unlikely to come back.

The grounds are immaculate and the scent of honeysuckle is intoxicating. Inside I was met with dark hard woods and that classic feel: this is the NICE restaurant for this small town. The servers were all professional and kind. We asked for extra bread while we waited. A teen was playing classical guitar out on the patio. The boomers at the table over were adorable in their boozy confessions to one another. They tried to purchase the only ugly painting on the wall. Let me know if you hear how it went. The rest of the paintings were jarringly gorgeous. And the food. We had the marsala chicken and the coconut curry. I am a sucker for polenta and it perfectly absorbed the marsala sauce: other worldly. As another person from a small town, tip your servers in cash, people. Northern Californians are just trying to get by!

Need to take pics next time. Next time was the next day, the gluten free thing made this an easy decision and I remembered to take pics beforehand. Grilled Octopus was tasty. We shared the seared ahi tuna and holy crap it was the bomb. The wasabi aioli and chili crunch was over the top yum. Just enough heat and the mixed berry sorbet will sort you out if the heat gets you. Also got the gem salad which was a great complement and breather between the starter and entree

We opted for 12 oysters for $30.95 and crab rolls. If you don't want too much oyster you can get smaller portions. They offer 3 oysters for $9.95, then 6 oysters for $15.95 and the last option of 12 oysters for $30.95. They also offer 3 different types for flavors ( garlic butter, chipotle bourbon and one other sauce. We got the two most popular flavors of 6 chipotle bourbon and 6 garlic butter. The crab rolls were made of fresh meat with light mayo tomato. It was really nice and refreshing. Light lemon flavor. You can taste the freshness without the sea or sandniess. I wish the portion for the crab roll was a bit bigger. But overall I loved everything. Will definitely come back when in the area for the oysters.
