Although this is more like a tourist attraction nearby the museum, but their foods were very good, and we got live music in the evening so the atmosphere was lovely. The service is top notch and the waiters also let us know the happy hour offers. Parking is also easy, right outside of the restaurant. We will definitely come back again.

With an incredible view of the ocean especially at sunset and being in such close proximity to some impressively sized boats this restaurant provided both fantastic tastes and a memorable experience! The prices are great especially for the amount served and compared to other seafood restaurants on the water! The sourdough bread and rice were incredibly flavourful which was a pleasant surprise, we couldn’t get enough! Their fish had great texture, taste and were perfectly battered! I loved that each table outside had their own heat tower behind each chair to keep us warm against the ocean breeze! The staff were also super nice and accommodating! I highly recommend sitting outside or near a window for a unique viewing experience! We saw many boats, planes and sea life while dining!

As San Diego natives, my partner and I have always been eyeing Fish Market and we finally got the chance to eat at the restaurant. We had a reservation at 6 pm on a Monday night. We requested to be seated outside and our request was granted! For food we ended up starting with the Oysters Rockefeller which came with 4 (creamy spinach, artichoke hearts, romano cheese). This was the first time trying this dish, it was solid but probably won't order it again. For our main course we got the Fish and Chips but the combo with both Battered Cod and Battered Shrimp. The fries were super crispy as well. The cod was nice and flaky as well! We also got the Grilled Salmon with Pink Peppercorn Sauce (herbed potatoes, grilled asparagus, pepperonata). This was ok, the Salmon a bit overcooked but the rest of the dish was delightful. Also the food took an unusually long amount of time, not too sure what was going on there. Overall solid view, solid food and nice servers.

The Fish Market surprised me — in the best way. Fresh, bright ceviche that danced on the tongue, a solid beer list, and a view that makes every bite feel seaside. Louie is the the heart beat of the the restaurant — with his recommendations and energy it’s amazing. Friendly service, great portion sizes, and an atmosphere perfect for a sunset meal. Bonus: it’s right by the Midway ship, so you can make an evening of it. Highly recommend stopping by.

Family friendly, seafood restaurant that serves generous portions of the main ingredients and has friendly service. The good is not overly seasoned which was much preferred. The fish and chips were great as was the fish tacos. I liked their fries - crispy and thick.
