As someone who cooks professionally (an amateur home cook), the Gumbo is something that I can never…read moreget right; 1 second too long and the roux is burnt. Prudently, I'd rather traverse from the peninsula on a random Monday for some Gumbo. To say that I was pleasantly surprised was an understatement. The gumbo was seasoned perfectly. I noticed that the chicken is shredded presumably from a pressure cooker, which turns every bite into a mouthful of everything. Despite my best efforts to not be dramatic, one can tell the passion and soul that is put into this bowl of Gumbo. Though I do see some comments, and I agree, that the Gumbo is not thick enough, I don't really care for a heavy/dense gumbo. This bowl has sufficient structure absent the heavy dense roux, and it was exactly to my liking. Though I wish there was a touch more rice, my $6 Caltrain ticket (+tax and muni) was not spent in vain for this heartwarming bowl of gumbo, with a side of passion, defining what real soul food is.

We also had their clam chowder, local king salmon (special of the day), and fish n chips! Clam chowder was not too good, it was overly salty and didn't have much taste, the cream overtakes everything else. Fish n chips were delicious! The batter isn't too thick, isn't too oily. The bay fries were amazing :) The local salmon was super super good! Wasn't dry, slightly sweet due to the glaze (?) and some vegetables under, but not much vegetables compared to other reviews I've seen It was pretty busy, food took some time to arrive They have seating indoors and outdoors, this place is behind the building!

My mom and I felt like we didn't wait too long. When we were finally seated, our order was taken by Ethan. Part of the experience when you dine is of course the service, and Ethan was intentionally exemplary of that. He was such a warm and personable individual, which truly made our day! It was exactly the type of *perfect* customer service you would hope for any time you dine. My mom and I came specifically for the Hog Island Clam Chowder, but wanted to try the grilled oysters since we haven't prior. Ethan recommended the Chipotle Bourbon Grilled Oysters and I must say... I was blown AWAY. I mean it was absolutely divine. The flavor was so unforgettable that mom and I ordered a second round unexpectedly. The Hog Island Clam Chowder is not as thick as typical clam chowders as one would expect, but it was wonderful! The restaurant's location at the ferry building is great for a sunny day, as it's right next to the water! If you're ever in SF and looking for something fantastic, please please please visit Hog Island Oyster because the food and the service were absolutely SENSATIONAL.

I can't say enough great things about 4 Star Seafood in San Francisco! The quality of their seafood…read moreis absolutely outstanding--everything was incredibly fresh, delicious, and beautifully prepared. You can really tell they take pride in what they do. What truly impressed us, though, was their customer service. We weren't able to make it to pick up our order, and Scott went above and beyond by arranging an Uber to deliver our seafood to us. That level of care, kindness, and dedication is so rare these days. He turned what could have been a stressful situation into an easy and enjoyable experience. If you're looking for top-quality seafood and a business that genuinely cares about its customers, I highly recommend 4 Star Seafood. Scott's exceptional service earned a customer for life. Thank you for going the extra mile!

Ora King shanks - tail part, tastes similar as belly. Big glory bay king salmon - liked this a bit more as sashimi than Ora. Copper river sockeye salmon - pan fried with a hint of salt, was very tasty naturally. Loch duart salmon - similar as above, not dry at all, very juicy tender esp for wild. Salmon bellies - very fatty, as expected, a lot of wonderful oil.

We ordered their classic garlic pepper crab, garlic noodles (plain), kungpao eggplant, and fried calamari. Everything was tasty, except for the eggplant dish, which was over-caramelized. The texture was weird, and there was no kungpao flavor whatsoever. It tasted like candied eggplants. For dessert, we had the baked alaska. It was beautiful, nice presentation. It was super rich but if you've never had one before it may be an opportunity to try one for yourself. For cocktails, we ordered a Strawberry Field. It didn't taste anything like strawberry although it was beautiful. The beer selection was rather pedestrian. They had Sapporo, Budweiser, and a bunch of other options similar to the ones you can find at your local gas-station. lol

The other thing I noticed was regarding the vegetables the green beans, sugar peas, and mushrooms were really tasty (though in a sauce that was too sweet), there were many green beans that were not fresh.

The ciopinno is still one of the best in the city, something especially comforting about having a warm bowl of soup while sitting outside. The pesto linguine is always a hit.

PLACE: place is fairly small, no inside dine in, and there are benches to wait for your order. Someone greets and takes your order, then they give you a buzzer and you wait for your food. FOOD: Combo #1: Spicy Salmon Poke - very good flavor and the sauce makes it come together nicely, it also comes with seaweed salad, and rice. Combo #2: Salmon Teriyaki Plate - comes with teriyaki carrot and broccoli, 4 pieces of shrimp battered, rice, and salmon teriyaki, the portion was small but it was good. All combos come with water!

The portion was smaller than I expected. The tuna was fresh, but I feel like I can make this myself. The ingredients are easily accessible (for me). We also got the Seafood combo with 3 pcs fried fish, 3 pcs fried oysters, 6 pcs fried shrimp and french fries. It was okay. Nothing mind blowing. I needed more tartar sauce. Would I come back to try other item? Sadly, I don't think so.
