“Great Seafood, Great Service, Good value”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 25, 2011

This place has some of the best oysters Rockafeller we have ever had, Thier Ahi Tuna is Great and the sauce is unbelievable, thier Seafood salad is ridiculious, and the baked crab with shrimp, is to die for. Service is prompt, curtious and friendly. Would definitely recommend this place if you are in Oakland looking for a great seafood restaraunt.

“Scott's was great”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 5, 2010

My wife and I took the Amtrack to Jack London square to eat lunch at Scott's. We were not disapointed. It was an expensive day, but it was worth it. The Gumbo was the best I have eaten since I ate at an Cajon Restrauant years ago. My wife ate Crab Cioppino which was great. It is expensive, but for a treat it was worth it.

“Great event - wrong time!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 16, 2010

I held an alumni event for the College that I work for at Scott's. The staff was amazing and the food was out of this world. It was a little pricey - but the venue location, comfort and decor is well worth it. I was expecting about 20 guests - and only 8 came because of the political situation outside. The Oscar Grant verdict was announced just an hour and a half before the night started. If I lived in Oakland and was considering wedding locations - I would pick this spot. They appear to produce terrific weddings - and what a great spot! There was an excellent nearby hotel - a Joie de Vivre hotel called the Waterfront...steps away.
