    Oh my goodness! Everything was absolutely delicious. The battered shrimp were cooked to perfection. I can't wait to return.

    Service was great. Food was okay. Location by the water was fabulous, it was a bit windy so we sat on the second floor bar area. Clam chowder had too many onions, the Brussels sprouts and sauce tasted great. The drinks were great, I ordered the Benicia Sunset.

    Food was great. View was beautiful. First time dining here. The warm sourdough bread was a nice treat. Tried the crab salad & fish & chips. Service was excellent. Definitely will be back! Benicia is so cool!

    It's okay. The menu is smaller then it may have been before covid. The drinks are good! The outdoor space in the parking lot isn't the best. Your sitting on rocks like the parking lot. Better to sit inside upstairs. No dirt or smell from the cars.

    This is my second time dinning here, amazing. High quality food, at a affordable price. Excellent service, super friendly and attentive staff. I ordered the FIRST MATE SURF & TURF, Delicious. Very relaxing, right next to the water, with a full view of the bay while you are dining. Very peaceful and comforting

    A lovely restaurant sits right by the ocean with unbelievably gorgeous view. We thought it’s a tourist trap but every single dish was surprisingly beyond our expectations. We ordered crab cake salad, seafood gumbo, jumbo shrimp cocktail and mussel and fries, we were impressed by the huge portion and the freshness of the seafood, they were so pleasant and we were so content :) the service was also prompt and friendly- the entire experience is like the snickers to a hungry monster, I can’t be happier with my last minute decision

    The entire experience was positive ✨️ called for a reservation same night, greeted positively when told it was a b-day celebration * got a window table, great view! Our dining area was not crowded on a Thursday @ 7:45. Food was delicious and generous portions! The French bread was soft & accompanied by butter packets. Server was attentive and friendly. They helped take pictures πŸ“Έ we were not rushed at all. Enjoyed the sunset! Highly recommend πŸ‘Œ

    Cute and relaxing restaurant near the shoreline. A beautiful place to enjoy some delicious food and a refreshing cocktail. It's located at the end of the historical town. The food was fresh and tasty. The staff were attentive and accommodating to our requests. Can't wait to visit again.

    Great food! Our server Elizabeth was amazing! I started with the Dozen oysters and a beer. The surf and turf was excellent as was the wife's fish and kids pasta. I finished the a nice Port.

    This restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere. There is indoor and outdoor seating either way there's a wonderful view of the bay. The servers are friendly and fast.

    Everything was very good for our lunch. Good food and service. Oysters were fresh. We will go again.

    The food was decent, and the view was beautiful, but the service was only average. The place could use some updates, and unfortunately, the drinks didn't quite hit the mark.

  • 2/5 Siamona F. 6 months ago on Google
    The food was not that good and the service wasn't any better. We were sat outside, the table was dirty and very unstable. They seem to have had a problem with moving us as requested and the waiter seemed as though she didn't want to serve us. She didn't come back until 10 minutes after moving us to ask if we wanted something to drink. The food did come out hot but had to eat with some friendly flying friends.This is not a place I would recommend. Especially if you're traveling and wanting good food. Waste of money and time. The view up to the restaurant was the best part of all.

    Stopped here for lunch with a large group of friends. We got a table out by the water. The weather was warm so it was a good day to be on the bay. Food was delicious and beautifully presented. Service was friendly but slow and a few details got mixed up. My one complaint is they weren't able to do separate checks, so we had to do a lot of math, pass money around then someone ultimately put in on their card.

    Service: 4 outta 5 - not the friendliest of staff. They were short on staff, so cutting them slack. Place got busy. Parking: small lot but also available on the street Price: ranging from 20-40$ per person Food: great taste/decent portions

  • 4/5 Bekah M. 1 year ago on Google
    My spicy mango margarita was so strong that I couldn't finish it. Normally a strong drink would make me so happy but early morning brunch wasn't for me. However, the drink was good. Clams had good clam flavor. However, they had a strong greasiness to them as if the oil hadn't been changed in a while and also caused me to not finish my food. My spicy margarita came well after my food which was odd for Brunch. All in all I would definitely go back. Just wanted to critique. I did pay and tip. Didn't ask for a discount. The ambiance is very warm and inviting.

    I will have to say that this experience lands at my top 5 of all time. The wait staff was hands down amazing. Thank you, Lena... The food was prepared to perfection. The food was so amazing that we tried 7 different dishes. The bartender knows how to definitely make amazing cocktails. The cooks care, and you can taste it in every dish. For starters to desert, you will not be disappointed. We travel the world Lei'orum Travel and Entertainment LLC. We never knew there was a gem right in our backyard.

    The food, view was really good and also the service. They need to take care a little bit more on the cleaning.

    We stopped in at Sailor Jacks in Benicia this weekend. We ordered a few drinks, Calamari, and the lunch special (club sandwich). The food was amazing, the service was fast. Our waitress was so kind. And you have a beautiful view of the ocean. We will definitely be back.
