Came here after hiking in Muir Woods - been on a hunt for the best fish and chips in the Bay and…read moreheard that Hook Fish was one to check out. Got there around 3pm and was told that a table for two would be about a 30 minute wait, so it was not as bad as we thought it would be, considering that the whole parking lot (which was probably the only downside; it being made of gravel and without distinct parking designations making finding a spot incredible difficult and annoying) was full. The inside vibe was great, with tons of people drinking/eating and having a good time. When we got seated, we ended up ordering just a few oysters and a 3pc fish and chips. The oysters were pretty good and fresh, with a great vinaigrette on the side to pair with them. The fish and chips, however, were the obvious stars of the show. The fish were nice and golden, with a very crisp texture, and more importantly large and generous. The fries were nicely seasoned and plentiful. The fish was really tasty (you can choose the type of fish depending on what they have on hand, and some cost extra between $2-$10. We chose the standard option for the day: Rockfish), easily one of the better fish and chips I have had - just an incredibly simple, but well executed dish. While the tartar sauce was a good pairing, the real standout pairing was Hook Fish's own carrot habanero hot sauce with the tartar sauce and the oyster vinaigrette. I have never had something like a carrot based hot sauce, but it really works by contrasting the spiciness of the habanero with a slightly sweet carrot undertone. Strange, but it gave the classic fish and chips a unique twist that sets it apart from the competition. While eating we saw tons of different dishes fly out the kitchen as well, such as poke burritos, large portions of chips and salsa/guacamole, and fish tacos. After the experience we had that day, we will be forsure making another round back to Hook Fish to try some of their other options. Their fish and chips are a must.

So, party plans and wanting some bubbly and I needed a tool for cocktails (they had it!). So, this place is New! (Feels so fresh which is a nice feeling) They had a lot of bubbly in the refrigerators! Fancy stuff for a host or Birthday gift. Great stuff. I was trying to keep it simple but they kept encouraging me to get to 6 for the discount and I did, which is fine. I will try some other brands I am curious about. The people here are super knowledgeable! There was a tasting going on which actually helped eliminate potential purchases. I am actually looking forward to the next time I am looking for white wines. They literally have everything & anything you might need in a more tidy situation. (Not popsicles like at another store-but beverages). Got a great Sancerre here too. Definitely check it out!

The $14.99 sandwich was pre-cut and full of thick pieces of steak. There was a ton of arugula and pickled red onion. This was a very good homemade tasting sandwich of great quality. The market itself is pretty low key, very dense and small. It has everything you need but it doesn't have the produce that I would normally get at a Whole Foods or Good Earth. The service was good and it was very convenient to go to. We will definitely come back to get sandwiches here whenever we have a picnic nearby. It was convenient. The redwood park nearby did not disappoint.

My partners margarita was good as well. Enjoyed a glass of of the Walter Hansel Chardonnay which is more of a locals kind of wine and nice to see on the list. Food - we both have enjoyed the steak frites in the past and my partner did so as well last night, subbed out the arugula salad for Caesar and it was just right. My salmon with market succotash and corn puree was a lovely combination of what spring here has to offer. The pickled maitake mushrooms added the perfect amount of acid and umami to offset the richness and keep flavors fresh. Desserts - the sticky pudding and berries never disappoint. Ambiance - please do not ever change (much), we love dining here whether it's a casual meetup with friends or a special date night. The high top bar tables could use a sanding and re sealing but you can tell they are well loved by diners :) Service - Monday night, a few delays and missteps surprising as restaurant was not bustling.

So you get a small and intimate feel where seated outdoors (so pleasant) or indoors. They have live jazz style music playing. There's some shade in the mini courtyards outside seating but even if there's sun, they have portable patio umbrellas. Staff immediately brought out cushions and a water bowl for my fur babies; they were so sweet!! Bathrooms are clean . Oh and indoors is soooo cute. Rustic but cozy!! Happy hour is 4-6 pm at the "bar section" only, separate from the main restaurant. Go early as its first come first serve. I tried the crispy buffalo wings which was good. But the walla walla waffle chips with onion dip was phenomenal. Such deep rich flavor dip. I also tried the half dozen raw oysters; the accompanying sauce and lemon enhanced the flavor perfectly.
