The oysters were absolutely delicious — very fresh and definitely the highlight of our meal. The fried calamari was also excellent — crispy, flavorful, and really delicious. We really enjoyed both!
The clam chowder tasted good as well, but unfortunately, it had way too much potato. There was so much potato that it took away from the chowder itself. I would definitely recommend using less potato and more clams.
Overall, we really enjoyed our meal and would happily come back for the oysters and calamari again!

If you’re staying in Gualala or driving up the coast, this place is an absolute must-stop. The food is outstanding, and the clam chowder is hands down the best I’ve ever had. We shared the prawn tacos and the tuna melt, and both were incredible. The prawns were exceptionally fresh and packed with flavor, while the tuna melt was perfectly prepared and absolutely delicious. There’s ample seating available both indoors and outdoors, making it a comfortable spot to enjoy a meal. The lines can get long, but don’t let that discourage you. The food is well worth the wait. I’ve eaten at similar seafood spots in Bodega Bay, and none of them come close to this place. Five stars simply aren’t enough!

This was one of the most delicious tacos I’ve had – my favorite was the shrimp tacos (both fried and grilled). The rockfish taco and rockfish and chips were also good, the fish has a more mild flavor with a delicate flakey texture. Shoestring fries were great. We did takeout and brought it to the nearby beach, but I imagine the fried items would taste even better fresh in the restaurant. I also enjoyed the clam chowder which felt more homemade – thinner texture with lots of potato pieces, and fresh herbs. Came back a second time before we left the area with the exact same order because we enjoyed it that much.

Very good for what it is. I liked the shack dog, fish sandwich, and shoestring fries. Michelada not bad either

Overall, a fun small location with plenty of patio seating (which is dog friendly) and friendly locals who were not shy about saying hello. My fiancee got the shrimp and rockfish tacos, which she really enjoyed. We both liked the Shoestring fries. I was deeply disappointed by the crab burrito, which sounds great by its description but in reality is this: unseasoned white rice, unseasoned refried beans, lettuce and tomatos are 90% of the burrito, which tastes like it was made in a dorm dining commons. There is also some sauce and about 2 tbsp of crab meat. Unfortunately by halfway through the burrito it was just wet lettuce and beans, so I did not finish, which is very disappointing for a $25 burrito. Maybe we were here on an off day (Friday afternoon) but I wouldn’t eat here again with many other seafood options nearby.
