The service was very good and our food was excellent! You go up and order, they give you a number to take back to your table and then they bring your food out to you. We had the 'help yourself drinks' Shangri La Passion Berry iced Tea.. very good! We had blackened trout with the grilled zucchini and the brown rice quinoa.. excellent. We also had the cod fish and chips with the broccoli slaw.. also excellent. I don't live in the area but I would eat here often if I did. The prices were great and for both entrees and 2 drinks it was only $27 total. read more

What a huge disappointment! New to the area I discovered this place by using Yelp. Of course because they're high stars and their happy hour offerings I thought I would check this place out with my girlfriend and her two little boys. We dined here on Tuesday around 3 ish to take advantage of their happy hour prices. We both ordered the smoked fish tacos, Ceviche, poke and clam chowder fries. Everything was beyond Bland. They offer Tabasco and Cholula hot sauce. No other sauces to add to our food to give it more flavor were offered. We also took advantage of their $4 glass of wine. Which was not worth it!! Our glass was only filled one fourth of the way. Lame!! All in all I would not return to this establishment due to the lack of flavor. read more

I was in town for an Elk's convention and this place was recommended for cod fish and chips so off we went. The restaurant had catfish instead of cod so we all had to choose something else. I lucked out ordering the grilled shrimp and was very happy with it. The other 6 people were not happy with the lobster roll, fried shrimp and fish and chips. read more

The fish and chips is theeeeee BEST fish and chips I've ever had. Even my husband who is a Navy Vet said they're the best and he's eaten in some of the best places overseas when he was serving. Me personally I'm VERY VERY picky with fish and this is my new spot ... yuuummmm!!!! read more

I usually love Pier 76 but today was just ehhh.. I got a two taco combo with 2 sides and a drink. Their street corn is underwhelming. It's straight from the can without any seasoning. No green onions, not feta cheese just straight from the can! It's bad! The brown rice and quinoa is flavorless I remember this being better. Now the chicken tacos. They are super dry. The chicken is flavorful and delicious but it needs more of the sauce that they put on them. There was maybe a 1/2 tsp of sauce. They get a solid 2.8 for the chicken being flavorful. The cucumber chia seed drink is also watered down. I won't get it again. read more

Pier 76 Fish Grill - Seafood Near Me - Riverside, California

Place is clean and cute. The workers are friendly and sweet. Food was huge and very flavorful. We ordered two of the special grilled fish of the day with gumbo, the special two fish taros with sweet potatoes fried, grilled fish with custom two sides, a bowl of clams chowders three michaladas & a fountain drink. Notice they have cucumber mint lemonade & great selection on tap sodas. My eyes were bigger than my belly so I ended up taking the tacos home and didn't get the chance to eat it until two days later and it was still delicious. Tacos tasted fresh like I just bought it but ofcourse I have to put it in toaster oven for 5-10 min to heat them up but like I said the food didn't disappoint. For all the food we ordered. It was only 104$ This is definitely one of my favorite casual place to eat read more

Everyone said that this place is super delicious but honestly, it's mediocre. The atmosphere was quite gloomy and the staff looked like they really didn't want to be there. Prices went up from the pictures posted on Yelp but the portions are pretty big still. We ordered about half the menu and everything was bland, including the tartar sauce. Out if what I tried, the panko calamari had a good crunch but were a little over cooked and they didn't de-skin the squid before battering. The beer battered fish were crispy on the outside but chewy on the inside and the fries were half hard and cold and half cooked but soggy. The clam chowder had a thick layer of oil on top of it and was so thick that I wouldn't call it soup, it was more like sweet cream with a side of crackers. I don't know if it was just an off day today...I'm still willing to go back and try some other items. read more

First time coming here, and I decided to get the clam chowder and the lobster/shrimp roll. The clam chowder was hearty and creamy, with generous portions of clam and potatoes. A little salty, but tasty nonetheless. The lobster/shrimp roll was interesting. Def not the best I've had, but still yummy. The shrimp and lobster were placed on top of two separate half slices of bread, so it was hard to pick it up without all the toppings falling off. Service is fast since it's a fast food style. read more

Not gonna lie, I came here since they had a Yelp Cash Back promo AND it just happened to be Taco Tuesday haha! My boyfriend ordered one of each taco. I believe we ordered all the tacos they offer to try them all. It was a little bit more on the pricier side, but it being Taco Tuesday helped a bit with their discount. All of their tacos tasted great! I loved the citrus-y salsa that some of the tacos had on them. It complimented the meat perfectly. I had been wanting to dine at Pier 76 for awhile and my boyfriend and I had a good time here. Also, make sure to check-in to get a free drink! We got their Cucumber Mint Lemonade and it was AMAZING! My boyfriend and I couldn't get enough of it. It was so refreshing. I'm sure I'll be back again if I ever wanted to treat ourselves to a bit more "fancier" tacos for Taco Tuesday. They also have a large menu that offers many other dishes, so I hope to try those in the future as well! read more

I mean it was okay but we won't be back. I got the fish and shrimp and fries. The shrimp had crispy breading but inside the shrimp were tiny. The fish was flavorless. We also got "calamari" and I wish they had had a picture of it because I wouldn't have ordered it. They only used rings of large squid, which can be tough, and then heavily breaded them in a dark cornmeal and fried - they looked like onion rings. They eat like rubber tires. read more

Ordered the salmon hipster bowl... salmon was cooked beautifully rice was good but the arugula salad had a few wilted leaves it it and some of the humus had dried bits in it. Still one of my fav restaurants but quality control wasn't there today 12 pm on a Saturday. I'm read more

I have been here 3x and i have to say these guys knock it out of the park every time. The food is very good and the service is great. The restaurant is always very clean and the staff was very friendly. My son was bummed that they didnt have breaded shrimp on the menu, but they were happy to do it for him!!!! Stuff like that goes a long way. read more

Pier 76 Fish Grill - Shrimp Hipster Bowl and Sweet Potato Fries - Seafood Near Me - Riverside, California

Always good for a quick meal. Good service and great food. Perfect for a night before a movie at Riverside Plaza.

I don't know...I'm just really not impressed with this place. I got the clam chowder bowl and the (now) Lobster and Shrimp roll. The clam chowder had a sweet taste to it, which made it unappetizing. The Lobster and Shrimp roll..well, first off it used to be a lobster & langostino roll. Secondly, it wasn't even a roll. It was two halves of bread that had shrimp and some lobster piled on top of it. The roll was served in a bucket for some reason, which made it nearly impossible to eat. It all fell apart and made a big mess. Other than that, the service was fine. You order at the counter and then find yourself a seat. The facility was kept clean and organized, so that was a positive. For the price I paid, I really don't think it was worth what I got. Sadly, I won't be returning. read more

Pier 76 Fish Grill - Clam Chowder ($8) - Seafood Near Me - Riverside, California

Food was very tasty and the crew very attentive, very clean too, the fish n chips was delicious

Finally made plans to come here, last time we came it closed early on a Saturday but finally we came on time at around 7:30pm for Dinner. Inside look was very nice, I been with my husband to the original location in Long Beach, thought we try out the Riverside, it's a little closer to our home. Traffic wasn't bad. We took a moment to browse the menu, and wasn't sure what to get, but my husband had his picked from the beginning. He ordered "Battered Fish and Chips" and I saw the many pictures of the lobster roll and shrimp so I ordered that. Wasn't too crowded, we came at a decent time. Battered Fish and Chips was amazing it was about $10.95. My Lobster and Shrimp Roll was about $16.95 pricey much. Now to be Honest here, I did not like my Lobster and Shrimp Roll, wasn't worth it for me. Overall taste I would give it a 3 out of 5. Probably not a fan of Lobster and oh my others were right, there were only like 2-3 pieces of lobster too + I got bones in my mouth so minus on that. It's $16.95 with not even French fries with it. Was pretty small, and there sliced bun was heavy. I don't recommend that roll, way better elsewhere I hope. While I was eating lobster was a bit too fishy aftertaste was really hard to swallow. So, the only reason why I am giving it a 4 is cuz my husband's plate which was the "battered fish and chips" was Top Class, not one bit oil came out from fish even though it was fried. When you eat it, you really don't feel heavy, it's that perfect. French Fries are amazing too, the oil that they are using I assume is very clean because it's so good. Worth to try + with weather cold these days eating fish keeps you warm. ;) I recommend Battered fish and Chips! Next time I come I am just going to order my Fish!!! Yasssss! read more

This is my favorite place to eat in Riverside. I'm a particular fan of the smoked fish tacos! And the fish & chips are so very good - crispy and light, not greasy! The portions are great. I'm so glad they're in my neighborhood! read more

Love the Food here, sadly they make you wait in the long line with other people even though I had called my order in over the phone ahead of time, they still insisted I wait in the long line to check out while my food got cold and soggy in the bag. read more

This is hands down my favorite place for fish tacos. The restaurant is comfortable, clean and modern. It is located at the Riverside plaza, which is a bit busy during lunch time and parking is usually hard to find. Along with fish tacos, I've tried the fried zucchini, sweet potato fries and ceviche. They're all great sides to add and the fish tacos are amazing because of the mixture of the toppings. I am also a big fan of their craft soda, which seems more richer in taste than regular soda. Price wise, you're looking at getting an extremely good deal if you're looking for the taco special, which comes with two tacos and drink for $4.99. I could see someone spending $13-$15 if you add more sides and a drink. read more

Are you hungry for a seafood sandwich? Today I did and of course we do the normal searching online. Well, where can I go on this beautiful 88 deg weather in Riverside to find a restaurant I haven't been to and hopefully cross my fingers to see if the food is good. I am a bit spoiled knowing what good food taste like in Hawaii so I searched away and looked up "Lobster sandwiches." Bingo, Pier 76 in Riverside popped up, its about 40 min away from my house but I planned to drive the side streets because I want to take my time and breath cleaner air than the exhaust from gridlock traffic through Moreno Valley and the 215. Finally arrived and found the road to the restaurant was blocked because of a children's festival celebration of earth day. Great music though. Walked into the restaurant and ordered from the cordial girl at the counter that had a beautiful smile. I really wanted to flirt but it would have been un-funny to the other patrons. I had already looked at the menu online and without hesitation I ordered the Lobster Roll Sandwich, f.r.i.e.s. and the broccoli salad which I had never had before but recommended by the counter girl. Sat and waited .... about 10 min and the salad arrived. Boy was that delicious.Tasty Tasty Tasty. 5 min later the fries and the lobster roll arrived on my table. I thought the sandwich couldn't taste better than the salad. I was loving munching on the leafy enjoyment when I finally took a good look at the V-shaped serving device. The thick bread folded in the V-shape like a taco with a very handsome portion of lobster topping the buttered bread. Grabbed it with both hands and flavor just oozing out. Yummy. I sat in silence. Something I do when my vision narrows and I ignore anything or anyone around me and concentrate on the bliss. Wow, so delicious. I was talking out loud in my head. wow this is really good. Now I wanted to not lose the chance to take photos before the evidence disappears so out comes my phone and snap snap video video. Now I can engulf and feel guilty later. After a while, I had to take some of it home. I can't show myself with such multiple face expressions with each bite. So walked over, grabbed the to-go boxes off the counter and neatly put the rest of my fries, sandwich and left over salad and left. All I thought about was when I would be back again. This place is so highly recommended I am afraid the next time I come back there would be a long line of people discovering this place. Again, highly recommended. I hope you have a wonderful time as I did enjoying the lobster sandwich, broccoli salad and the fries. This is my top recommendation today. read more

I tried the salmon tacos, pretty good flavor. Recommended to try. I stop by the area when I head to Big Bear.

This place went downhill. Many years ago they used to have thick clam filled clam chowder. Now it's watery and has no flavor. The swordfish was over cooked. Ruined a wild caught cut. The shrimp and the swordfish was thrown on top of the fries making the fries soggy. To the owners, you had a great restaurant at one point. I went to the Long Beach one frequently, and now it's changed. Probably because you cut corners to make some more money. Well, it tastes like that now. We won't be back. Such a shame. read more

When you live inland and have a hankering for some coastal eats, Pier 76 Fish Grill delivers! I have been here a few times now and every dish I've tried exceeded my expectations. Yes, I love seafood but that doesn't make this a biased nor inflated review. In fact, I really enjoyed what I've tried here! [ FOOD ] Langostino & Lobster Roll: Soft and fluffy bread filled with succulent morsels of langostino and lobster that's perfectly plump. Surprisingly got a lot on my bun. And I loved that it wasn't overdressed either! Smoked Fish Tacos: I absolutely loved these tacos! It's not over-seasoned or -salted. All the ingredients, including the little tangerine slices, really enhanced the tacos without overpowering the smoked fish! Clam Chowder: This batch reminded me of the ones I've had in Monterey, CA. Not too thick and not too thin. I'd love thicker chunks of clam but the flavor is still there nonetheless. Mussels Over Fries: This was a really heavy dish but I loved whatever sauce they poured over the mussels. The size is good enough for sharing. The only downside, obviously, is that the fries do get a little soggier, which can be off-putting for some. Still pretty good if you just feast on the mussels! Caesar Salad with Blackened Salmon: This was just okay for me. I expected more of the anchovy taste out of the Caesar salad but it was similar to store-bought romaine with Caesar dressing. However, the blackened Salmon really saved this salad. I must say, Pier 76 really knows how to grill their fish without drying the delicate meat! Linguine with Mussels in White Wine Sauce: I was a little hesitant to order this special off-menu item since one of the ingredients said it had poblano peppers. I expected the peppers to overpower the dish with spice. On the contrary, it impressively balanced the flavors of wine, garlic, onions, bacon, etc. The linguine pasta was cooked al dente, which is standard. The only downside was it splattered all over my blouse. Oh well! They've got a unique fountain of drinks to choose from including ginger beer, which you don't find in a lot of establishments--especially in the Inland Empire. [ SERVICE / ATMOSPHERE / SEATING ] Service here has been great. This casual eatery is spacious and clean. They have ample seating indoors and out. [ ORDERING ] Ordering is easy... there's a menu board above the registers. Place your order at the counter and they'll give you a number to take to your table. You pretty much just choose where you want to sit and someone will bring your orders to your table. [ MISC ] Oh, and I also love their cute cartoon receipts! Overall, I would give Pier 76 Fish Grill a 4.5-star rating. It's definitely more affordable in a casual setting without having to take a trip up to the coast. read more

Good grilled fish. The Brussel sprouts are so good. Healthy options. Will be back to eat again

Thoroughly enjoyed my blackened salmon sandwich. I also tried the calamari, however that one was so so. Don't think I'll order it again. The service was very good. I will definitely return again for another meal. read more

Tasty blackened salmon and smoked fish tacos. My go to seafood spot in Riverside. The fish and chips are also a tasty option.

Let me start by saying, staff was very friendly. It was the sequence of events with my food and its delivery that has led to this review. Ordered Swai Fish plate with broccoli and zucchini. Shrimp Plate with Zucchini, Cup of Gumbo, Calamari, and Fish Sandwich with Ceasar Salad. About 7 mins after sitting down, the Gumbo was delivered. Tasted and looked like they overdid it on the cornstarch and spices and underdid it on the meats. My husband's and sons food was delivered about 10 mins after the Gumbo. About 7 mins after their food was delivered, an employee approached the table and informed us that my Fish sandwich was almost done but they had just ran out of Calamari. Asked if we would like something else instead. I declined and requested a refund instead. I don't even know if she processed a refund for us for that. About 6 mins later, my Fish sandwich was delivered with a "Green Salad" instead of a "ceasar salad". Meanwhile, my husband and son are just about finished with their food already. I inform the employee about the salad, and she returned with a ceasar salad 5 mins later, but by then I was done with the whole experience and I requested a refund for my food. The manager tried to rectify the situation with a gift card, but I kindly declined. I could understand and would have been more forgiving if they had been busy but the place really wasn't that bust at all. In looking at the reviews for this place, the service/food has been hit or miss. And the service I got tonight was a complete MISS. read more

I have been wanting to try Pier 76 ever since it opened, but never got around to it. I've been holding onto a UberEats coupon for $30 off for awhile now, so I figured why not. I'd recommend the Beer Battered Fish & Chips to people who perhaps aren't a big fan of the strong 'fishy' taste we all know. The crust was fried to perfection giving the perfect crunch to every bite. Furthermore, the fish itself was still steaming hot when I received my food. Every bite was met with a savory note without any strong taste of fish; especially when combined with their cucumber tatar sauce and a fresh lemon slice. The fries that come along with it are soft, yet have a flavorful salty bite. I'm not a big fry person myself, but if you are one then you will be met with an impressive volume of fries. I also bought the green salad along with my order. The ratio of greens to red onions is perfect. I mixed my salad with their complimentary salad dressing, and it made every bite more satisfying. Also can't beat their prices either. 5-star quality! I am disappointed though... I should've put forth the effort to give Pier 76 Fish Grill a chance sooner because this is the best beer battered fish & chips I have ever had! read more
