Char grilled oysters (split 50/50 between jalepeño and chipotle bourbon) are a must. They come out piping hot and are massive. My wife ordered the mussels which she loves and I opted for shrimp and chips. Big meaty shrimp and well seasoned / cooked fries. If you're nearby, this is a must.

Second time at Hog Island & this visit was certainly not as good as the last…read more Food: 5/5 - always, highly recommend the grilled oysters as an appetizer and then we had the steamers with pasta + the seafood stew. Both were fantastic. Ambiance: 3/5 - ambiance is just okay. It's right on the water so a nice view from the outdoor seating but nothing particularly outstanding about the restaurant itself in terms of decor or architecture. Service: 1.5/5 - huge miss. For the prices on this menu, I would expect service to be a lot better. We waited in line to be sat (no waiting list, just an old school line) and it took only 10 minutes or so to be sat but it was very bizarre, we were a party of 2 ready to be sat & she took the couple behind us and sat them first. No particular reasoning given. The host seemed to really not care about much. From there, service was odd. Our server didn't introduce herself and just asked us what we wanted. Again, not a necessity but you would think for somewhere you're paying $30+ per plate, service would be a bit better. An oyster holder was delivered to our table after we had already finished oysters. Glass was broken near our table and hastily swept up. Bussers were dropping silverware right next to our table. Again, just wasn't great ambiance or service. The food is good but there are other good restaurants in San Francisco. I would really only come here again with low service expectations.

I was more than half way to Livermore so I decided to try Louise's. Many of the best places are not fancy or expensive and I was not disappointed. This place is like the proverbial hole in the wall, but clean and tidy, spick and span kind of place. There is a decent size menu of items, combos of fish (cod), prawns, calamari, clams, oysters and chicken. They also have sides, extras, drinks including beer and wine. I got the #4, 2-pc fish and chips for $12.40. Their prices must have dropped than what is shown online. Sales tax in Livermore, Dublin and Pleasanton is 10.25%. My order was cooked fresh. The fish is dipped in a cornstarch batter. After a few minutes, I heard the timer go off when it was done. A paper lined basket was brought to my table on a tray with malt vinegar, tartar sauce and catsup. It looked very good and golden brown. The taste test was awesome. light, crunchy and flakey fish, very yummy and no taste or smell of oil or any reside. It was perfect. The malt vinegar and tartar sauce not too tangy went very well with the fish. I ended up eating everything, nothing was left. The value is the 3-pc fish and fries, I think was just $15.50, but the 2-pc was just enough for me. Next time, I will try the calamari and fries. I dont think I need to head to SF, Fishermans Wharf, or Sausalito for good fish and chips. It's right here in Livermore, owned and operated by a husband and wife team. They are very friendly. Support local small business. This is one place I will enjoy going to, recommending and will bring friends next time. Thanks for reading.

We ordered the Family Pack - 10 fish & chips. Plus a large side of Cole slaw. We dined in and the food came out quickly. The fish was cooked to perfection - batter was crispy and golden, the fish flavorful and flaky. Not greasy at all. There were no soggy spots bustin through the breading either. I don't understand it but I'm lovin it. There's no shortage of sauces in squeeze bottles - tartar, ranch, cocktail, ketchup. Pro move. Plus malt vinegar. The coleslaw is thinly shaved and delicious - served chilled, not too over sweet or vinegar-y. Just right. The seating area in front was clean and I didn't leave smelling of fried food. The staff was friendly and helpful. Although we arrived 30 minutes before closing, they did not rush us out which is so appreciated. Enjoyed it so much I couldn't stop to take any pics after the food arrived. Can't wait to go again!

But at the price point it was just too steep (pun intended) for what we got: Deviled Eggs {4/5} interesting that it was fried! This was probably one of the best of our meal. It was just downhill from here. Crab Cakes {3/5} decent. Nothing extraordinary but nothing bad either. Smashed Potatoes {4/5} crispy outside, soft, fluffy centers. Better than the mains! Prime Rib {2/5} so sadly overcooked with a side of a single overcooked, flavorless carrot to pair with it too. I was so disappointed. Seafood Catch of the Day {2/5} hubs had the fish dish and he said it was really bland. It lacked any flavor at all. Agnello Brasato {2/5} my mother-in-law had the lamb shank and it was braised for too long so it was dry. The Smoking Gun {4/5} creativity points for smoking inside a bottle before pouring. Decent cocktail but not a "must get" for whisky cocktail enthusiasts. Overcooked and overpriced. Maybe come for the view and cocktails. Hate that I have to give this two-stars but no one in my family liked it :(

**Updated review** I…read morebooked my reservation through SF Restaurant Week's official website and was excited to finally try this place. Upon arrival, we were greeted and seated right away, which was a great start. However, things took a turn when our server handed us the regular menu without mentioning the SF Restaurant Week menu. When I asked about it, the staff member I spoke to claimed they weren't notified that they were participating. How is that possible when the restaurant was listed on the official website and we booked our reservation through it? SF Restaurant Week is a well known event, and participating restaurants usually share their menus online. I even checked Yelp and found only one photo related, which made me suspect they were trying to avoid offering the prix-fixe menu to maximize profits. Their excuse? "They weren't notified in time to create a menu." That's frustrating and misleading, especially since the event details had been public for two weeks+ meaning they should have been aware well in advance. If they weren't prepared, they shouldn't have signed up. That aside, we decided to stay and order from the regular menu. Unfortunately, our food took a long time to arrive. We ended up filling up on bread and soup while waiting. To make things worse, two other tables - a small party and a larger group that arrived after us, received most of their food before we received one dish. Food Review: * Mixed Crudo - The halibut was the best part- succulent, slightly sweet, and of course, there were only four pieces. The scallops, on the other hand, were overpowered by coarse salt, making them way too salty. The salmon was pretty standard. * Dungeness Crab Linguine - Decent, but not memorable. There wasn't much crab or sauce, so I probably wouldn't order it again. * Crab Chowder - Delicious, but the portion was misleading. The bowl was super shallow, making it look like there was more than there actually was--probably the same amount as a cup. * Branzino - Fantastic! The skin was perfectly crispy, and the side of broccolini was a great touch.

When you arrive, look for an outdoor venue with a permanent food truck (before food trucks were cool) and outdoor seating. You'll be greeted by only the kindest Brit's you've ever met. Depending on how busy they are, they can get the food to you pretty fast considering they are deep within the tourist section of San Fran. 10-15 minutes. The cod has a crispy batter, fluffy inside, and tender white flaky fish. Perfectly seasoned to consume straightaway. If you'd prefer, their tartar sauce is also amazing. (Can't speak for the malt vinegar as that's not my thing.) Ditto for the shrimp. Medium sized, flavorful, and you can't have one seafood without the other. The fries are also perfectly cooked to order. I'm so happy to see, that in 2026, they are holding a 4.4 stars with over 3,532 reviews. I can't wait to visit them again. One of the cleanest "fried" food places this side of the coast. Only one place completes with them directly in my book down in Ventura. Way to go!
