My boyfriend and I were looking for a place to eat and stumbled upon Sharon's -- the last restaurant on the Wharf. The building is a bit ramshackle, but unpretentious and quaint. It overlooks the harbor and the open sea. We started with absolutely delicious clam chowder (it's not fake-thickened with flour or stodgy, but rather a slightly thinner consistency).... more

During whale season we sit in the terraced dining room and enjoy tasty, beautiful food. The windows are situated to the sea, so it is almost like swimming with the whales themselves. Brunch is amazing. more

Overpriced ($26 scampi-7 shrimp) and not anything special. I'm not sure why this place has received such good reviews. more

We had dinner at Sharon's By The Sea on the busy MLK weekend. The tiny place was busy but our server was attentive and friendly. Hubby and I shared a salad, shrimp martini, clam chowder, and a seafood pasta with a light lemon sauce. Along with a bottle of nice local wine, it made for a lovely meal. The clam... more

When you drive into Ft. Bragg and ask anyone to recommend a restaurant, Sharon's always comes out at the top of the list. Located in Noyo Harbor, the tiny building is home to some of the best seafood in California from the clam linguine, to the cioppino. Before digging in, take time to feast on a true Caesar Salad, one... more

I don't know where Queenan was but it doesn't sound like they were at Sharon's. It is not an Italian resturant. We found it by accident and it was our best resturant of our visit. Do not be discouraged by the entrance. After you leave you will describe it as "authentic". They close from 3:00 to 5:00.We arrived at 2:50... more

Country music at an italian place isn't my favorite way to eat. My seafood medley was nice, but it could have used a more interesting sauce. I get a little peeved when they pour a beer so it is tons of foiam, just let me pour my own. On the upside the place is quaint and has a charm. The... more

My wife and I made our first trip to Ft Bragg and the manager of our hotel suggested we dine at Sharons. WOW! Cute place with great food. The scallops were to die for and the pasta with clams was by far the "best' I've ever had. Usually you get a few clams when ordering this dish but this not... more
