Reviews for The Dead Fish in Crockett, CA
Tasty and friendly fish restaurant with view of Carquinez bridge. Very good service by knowledgeable server, we ordered... everything he recommended and he was absolutely spot on. Don’t miss the crab lasagna! We also enjoyed the sea bass and friedsquid starter. Dessert was okay especially when we added dollop of ice cream. Service very good — not only was server great((Josh?) greeter made a special effort to show us all the tables available so we could choose the one we liked best. Read more
It was just ok. Pricey for the amount and quality of food. Friendly staff. Restaurant inside is quirky and fun with pretty views... of bridges and water. Nicely lit inside and out. 16oz prime rib looked more like a thick 8oz. But it was good. Read more
It was a perfectly pleasant experience with kind and helpful wait staff and decent food. We ordered the bruschetta, calamari,... crabwich, and shrimp garlic noodles. Everything was good and filled us up but it felt pretty standard. Lots of garlic and lotsof salt made it satisfying and tasty, it just wasn’t a culinary marvel. Overall I do recommend it here. The service wasawesome and we got a seat by the bar with a great view of the bridge. They even had binoculars next to our table to watch theboats and wildlife! It was a cute touch, even if the meal wasn’t memorable. Seems like it’s a good place to go with family. Read more
Make sure you give yourself extra time to find parking and to wait in line to check in even if you have reservations.... Unfortunately we did have to wait an additional 30 minutes until our table was ready. Besides that our service was quick and thefood came out hot and ready. We ordered the combo of mussels, shrimp and crab which was incredible. We also had Calamari whichthe large order was a much larger portion than expected. The SeaBass was a great choice with couscous pasta and you can't evergo wrong with the fish and chips. Read more
We ordered the double crab and double mussels. This was definitely a decision based on the people who were next us. They're crab... was super huge and we sat by waiting for the same. The last, when our crab came it was half the size of theirs. What a let down.Other platters we watched walked by had similar size crabs. I would just say if the table is not ordering and all you can eat alittle detention should be given to the size crab that you send out. They did make an adjustment on the mussels for us as theones that arrived on the platter were super dried out. Can't complain about the wait staff they were great. How's the staff wasjust as good finding us a place outside. I love this place I was disappointed a little bit of what I ordered so I'll just make adifferent decision next time. Well worth coming and enjoying the view. Even the crab mishap did not dampen the overallexperience. Read more
My wife, daughter mother and father-in-law and sister and brother in law all came for a birthday lunch. The appetizers we got,... crab cakes and calamari were absolutely amazing. I got the full crab and a cup of clam chowder which were incredible, wellseasoned served hot and tasted incredibly fresh. My wife and sister in law got the crab and shrimp Louie, my sister in laws wasin sadly short of crab compared to my wife's. They both said it was very tasty. My mother in law got the crab sandwich. Avoidthis item. It was the saddest sandwich I've ever seen. There was hardly any crab on it, avocado on half and onions which sherequested not to have all over it. It was the one bad part of the experience. Other than that the service was amazing the viewsbeautiful and the manager was nice enough to comp the sandwich. They also saw we were celebrating 4 birthdays the whole familywas born in March so when they saw us exchanging presents they brought us cake. We will be back but not for the crab sandwich.Everything else was top notch! Read more
We had a wonderful lunch on their patio today, Service was excellent and she helped us to make selections for 6 adults to share... as we wanted to try the seafood platters. We had the grilled shrimp, mussels, steamed clams, seafood stew and calamariappetizer. A couple people had a cup of the clam chowder which was generously sized. I also had the salted caramel vanillacrunch cake which was very good. Read more
Very wonderful place. Don’t be afraid to sit outside you get a fantastic view and their heaters will keep you warm. Started... off with a Big Tuna Blood Orange Margarita, was very good wish it had salt rim but the blood orange was a good edition. I gottheir Nonna’s world Famous killer crab. The star here was the garlic butter so good no wonder why since they are owned by theStinkin Rose in SF. Must go but get reservations. Read more
