Katlan PennyMarch 25, 2013Some of the best seafood I've had. Loved the fish & chips and clam chowder.
Tim SchmittJanuary 16, 2010Saturday afternoon wait 1+ hrs. Don't accept resv. Worth the wait if you have the time. If not, have sone ceviche and a bloody Mary at the bar downstairs.
Jamie FSeptember 23, 2013Holy clam chowder and garlic baked clams. Quite possibly best I've ever had
jo bensDecember 24, 2010garlic baked clams.. sooo worth it! also, if you are waiting to be seated, hang out at the bar downstairs!
- Go to Brophy's at 3pm, sit at the bar and enjoy the view, and the [relative] calm - it's the mid-afternoon lull time Read more
Rodrigo da GraçaMay 23, 2013Good clams slightly overcooked. Swordfish not enough salt and slightly dry
Koko YoungApril 21, 2011The best clam chowder in Santa Barbara! You cannot come here without ordering it
Magdaline DilesMarch 22, 2016WORST meal I have ever eaten. It took our hostess 3 attempts to seat us. I tried the fish sandwich and only managed 1 bite. Absolutely inedible. Utterly disgusting. My glass of water was ok.
Tyson RoseMarch 22, 2016Over-rated and underwhelming. The service was disorganised and the food was bland and rubbery. Have no idea what all the hype is about. It was the worst seafood I've had in years.
The grilled shark sandwich is soooooooo good!
Terry DickensMay 12, 2013Overrated. Food was just OK. Fish was bland. Restaurant way too loud. Tables are jammed together. Note it says it is "popular with "out-of-towners." Because locals know there's better food elsewhere.
Fedor BartoshApril 12, 2023Crowded. Fish & chips is too oily. Not sure how they got their 8+ (for raw oysters maybe you don’t need to cook?).

"To die for boston clam chowder. Love the bass and swordfish. The poke ahi tuna appetizer and calamari are both great."

"The lobster brisque soup is to die for. Definitely a must side dish with your entree. Experienced the best hospitality from the bartender. Do not leave Santa Barbara without visiting this place."
Diego Monasterio - 9.0
"I had the sesame seared ahi tuna, with almond pesto cauliflower and brown rice and loved it! Service is great and we were served quickly. One of my favorite places to eat fish in SB."
