    Fun place with great prices! Interior reminds me of the inside of a boat or yacht club. Burgees…read morehanging close to the bar. Pictures mounted on the ceiling! Lots of indoor tables and booths. Lots of stools around the bar. They serve breakfast as well.as lunch and dinner. We went for an early lunch on a Saturday and it wasn't crowded yet. Parking was easy and they have their own lot. Watch for the small "Chowder Barge" sign low down while traveling on Henry Ford! It's a ahort walk down to the restaurant down the gangway. The food and drinks. My.husband ordered the Caprain size Michelada. Housemade mix with Draft Midelo (choice of several.beers on draft). We started with cups of chowdet, very filling! We shared a 2-piece Fish & Chips Basket along with a Dinner Salad. Plenty of food for the two of us. Fish waa a bit heavier coated for my taste but the cod inside was great! The coleslaw wa excellent! The Garden salad had cucumbers and beets. The blue cheese dressing was so good! Service was excellent and very attentive. Nina was our server. She was very friendly and helpful!..we will definitely be returning!

We get inside. We get seated. Look at the menus. Menu shows they had Diet Coke. My daughter and I both ordered one. When it arrived we both thought it tasted weird. I mention it to the server "that's because it's Coke Zero" Diet Coke and Coke Zero are not interchangeable, guests should be made aware of this especially when the menu says Diet Coke and that's what was asked for. Another note, fountain drinks only had one free refill. I ordered fish and chips, my daughter got the ham and grilled cheese sandwich with "fries", my friend ordered the clam chowder and her daughter got the shrimp basket. First, the "fries and chips" were not fries. They were potato wedges. Although potato wedges are fried potatoes they are not French fries. The fish part of my fish and chips wax good. The tartar sauce was sweet and that threw off my taste buds. My daughter and friend's daughter both enjoyed their orders. My friend said she'd give the clam chowder a 6/6.5. I tasted it. It wasn't bad, but tasted more bacon than clam. It was definitely an experience eating here. I forgot to mention when the check came it had a credit card fee on the check without knowing if I was paying with cash or card.

    This is such a nice relaxed place to go for seafood by the water. I haven't been here since they…read moretore down the Ports O' Call Village area and didn't recognize it except for the Maritime Museum. I thought it was just an outpost, but the San Pedro Fish Market is just as popular as ever. And the longer I was there, the more I wanted to order everything that was coming out of the kitchen. It's fun to sit at one of the covered outdoor tables (make sure you find seats and get the table number before you order, since that's how they tie your order to your table) and face the kitchen ramp. You'll see the servers coming out with tray after tray of amazing looking seafood: whole grilled fish, shrimp, as well as corn on the cob and garlic bread. My friend got the ceviche with tortilla chips, and I got the massive shrimp burrito. Stuffed full of potatoes, gently cooked shrimp, cabbage, tomatoes and some cajun seasoning, it was really filling and is one of the cheaper items on the menu. If you come with a group, the seafood tray seems like the way to go. We saw so many people with them. Note on parking: if folks don't mind walking, there is free 2-hour street parking, compared to paying to park in the lot.

    I'm not sure how to feel about this place…read more Has a parking lot and TONS of seating, I live nearby so I walked over. Inside is a huge section of picnic tables with QR codes to help you view the menu and order as they deliver right to your table. Service is a 10/10. Everyone we interacted with was very kind and helpful. Food is where I'm lost. Shrimp plate had great flavor, a little too oily but that's to be expected. Shrimp & Chips had food flavor and breading to them but everything came out cold. My only conclusion for this is that we are in outdoor seating and it's always windy here, so I recommend sitting as close to the Kitchen as you can if you want a hot meal. I'm a little saddened that the experience wasn't great despite only hearing amazing things about this place, but I will return when the permanent location opens up.

There is also a nice outdoor patio with additional seating. Service was excellent from checking in at the reception desk, definitely make reservations, through our food/beverage service. Our server was friendly and very helpful! He was very attentive and made sure our water glasses stayed filled! We were a party of six and everyone enjoyed their meals. Most of us left with to go containers, their portions are very generous! Two in our party had the Swordfish Milanese, excellent; two had sandwiches, Blackened Chicken and Italian Mortadella, excellent; and I had the Blue Cheese Iceberg Salad with a bowl of Jim's Clam Chowder, both were excellent! Parking was easy. They have a large lot onsite. We went at lunch time and it was crowded, yet still open parking spots! I have heard great things about Trani's and it really lived up to its reputation.

We sat outside since we had a rowdy toddler and didn't want to ruin the dinner vibes inside. They had heat lamps and we were plenty comfortable. Service was quick and kind. We ordered fish and chips and Mushroom Mezzi Rigatoni and loved both but the rigatoni was absolutely delightful. The noodles were cooked perfectly, the brown butter was amazing, we could eat this daily and we will be back for it! This is a great date night spot and a must see if you live around PV!

The restaurant is very clean and organized. Our server was so sweet and welcoming. She walked us through the options and made recommendations based on our party. For a party of 3, we ordered one pound of shrimp, one pound of snow crab, and half pound of clams. The staff recommended mixing their sauces and it definitely hit the spot. The seafood was fresh and meaty and the garlicky, spicy sauce kicked the flavor up a notch. We also ordered a side of fries to share and the dip it came with was amazing as well. The price is very reasonable! It was definitely bang for your buck. They have happy hours that span a good chunk of the day so definitely take advantage of that. Will definitely be back to support a local small business.

The music was good and sports were available if that's your thing Cons: It took 30 minutes to receive our appetizers and at that time I was told they could not fulfill a portion of my order, I withdrew my order of rice and bang bang sauce. After 30 more minutes most of our order came out with the exception of the garlic bread. I was told that it takes a significant amount of time to make and asked if i wanted something else instead. I felt an hour for two burritos was excessive so declined adding anything else. Moments later my bread appeared. It took a full hour and some change to receive our order which I thought was unreasonable, especially since at this point we were the only patrons. Overall: Food was alright, reasonably priced, and portions were aligned with the price. However, I would recommend ordering ahead or anticipate a long wait time. When we went we were one of two patrons but it seemed they had a fair stream of take out orders. I frequent the area but do not live nearby and nothing caught my attention enough to return.

If you want fresh seafood at a reasonable price, this is the spot. For first timers we took it easy. I went with the fried fish and scallops. My wife chose the fried fish, shrimp and scallops. The Fry and the seasoning were really good. Everything was nice, fresh, and hot. We washed it all down with ice cold bottled Snapple Lemonade. They don't have well drinks. Besides fried product, they also have a grilled option. They offer outside seating, picnic style. It's not a fancy seafood spot. It's a grab your food, find a table, enjoy your seafood and beer, while hanging out solo or with a group of friends kind of spot. We'll most definitely be returning

Went on Sunday for a quick brunch. Ordered grilled halibut plate, wife ordered fish and scallops, topped it off with a clam chowder and two sodas. Total came out to be around 65$. Fish was just grilled with a ton of oil on the same griddle as everything else, seasoning consists of old bay and that is it. Bland, old bay seasoning. Fish and chip was bland, no flavor. Clam chowder had minimal clams and mainly thick soup base. So unless you think those YouTubers are coming there to say nice things, edit the video, and then post it so they can make content money. Don't waste your time and money.
