Description: Located on the waterfront in historic Jack London Square, lies Kincaid's Bayhouse. Truly, today's interpretation of a traditional Fish, Chop and Steakhouse. One will find the food and beverage to be the finest available and where possible, prepared and served in the tradition of an old-time Fish and Steakhouse. Fresh fish flown in daily, prime select cuts of beef, along with signature dessert items are just a few reasons that set Kincaid's apart from other restaurants.

Went there this week with family and thoroughly enjoyed it. There were six of us and everyone raved about their food. My husband and I had the prime rib which was absolutely delicious, and their organic green salad is really special. Plus we had a great view while we ate. HIghly recommend.

Our first experience there was on a Friday afternoon. We were seated in the lounge area and were lucky enough to get a window seat. The ladies working that afternoon were fun, outgoing and extremely good at their job. We had the clam chowder which in itself is def the best anywhere! But then we had the asiago crusted scallops...

We were looking for a good seafood resturant that offered a good steak meal as well. I asked a native who was familiar with every resturant in the Oakland Downtown area and she recommended Kincaid's in Jack London's Square. Kincaid's food was teriffic and atmosphere was cool. The crab/artichoke appetizer was to die for. We sat down shortly after 5pm.... More

I have eaten here before but only in the evenings. The place was rather quiet on this Sunday lunchtime and was therefore lacking the atmosphere that I enjoyed previously. The rather tired decor was also evident but the view and location made up for this. The Eggs Benedict and Burger were enjoyable especially when washed down with a well-priced bottle... More

Rockafeller oysters were very good, steak had to be returned as undercooked. Good wine selection, good service, nice atmosphere

Great view of the water while you're eating. We stopped in for lunch and had the soup and sandwich combination. The french onion soup was very good as well as the turkey sandwich. They have a bloody mary bar that looked interesting but we didn't participate in that. Service was excellent. If you're in that area, its a good place... More
