Reviews for Horatio's in San Leandro, CA
Nov 2022 The Calamari was perfect, could not have been better. My Sole was outstanding. My wife's Mahi Mahi was good but could... have been better with a sauce. The bread was perfect. Glad they had a Porter on their beer list. Nice to see they had 2 localbeers on the list. The view was outstanding. The waiter was attentive and outstanding. Our previous experiences were not goodand we were planning to stop going here but after our perfect meal, we will be back. March 2022 We had the "Oven Roasted Craband Artichoke Dip", it was excellent. The "Country Fried Calamari" was excellent. The house bread was great. The "Fish andChips" were fair. The fries were not crispy and undercooked. The amount was great, 3 pieces but the flavor was so so. Thetarter sauce was also off. The "Asiago Crusted Sole" was very disappointing, the white sauce did not pair well with thefish. The "Key Lime Pie" was good but did not have the normal intense lime flavor I am used to having. The service waswonderfully outstanding, very attentive with a great personality. The view from the tables are beautiful!!!! Wonderfullocation overlooking the Marina. Parking was plentiful and free. The bathrooms were very clean and well stocked but the floorsare uneven so be careful. Read more

The buttered bread and lobster bisque are to LIVE for! The flavors are unreal. I also really loved the Almond Crusted Scallops!... I was literally closing my eyes while eating them because they were so delicious, I wanted to savor the moment. The breading wasthin and crisp, and the sauce it came with was great. Props to the chef! I did find that the side of mashed potatoes (one of myall-time favorite foods) had a sour, vinegar-type of flavor, which I was not a huge fan of. Had the mashed potatoes beenbuttery, salty, or garlicky (or all three haha), I would've enjoyed them much more. As for the Crab and Shrimp FettuccineAlfredo - it came highly recommended by the servers. I really enjoyed the crab and sauce, but the shrimp was overcooked, likehard to cut with knife, overcooked. It was a good dish, but I stand by the lobster bisque and scallops as the stars of thedinner. Service was wonderful, just like the last time I was here and we had a great table next to the window, just in time forsunset. Lots of parking was available. Reservations are encouraged. I will definitely come back whenever I'm in town andrecommend to others. Read more

So this place is well known in the area. But, does it live to the hype. Ambiance and decoration is well up there and love it.... Waiting for a table was fast and quick. Then into food. Food portions are small and one little side is added. Improvement neededthere. Drinks were strong and on point. And last service. 0. Slow and non helpful. Maybe they can improve and make it better.Over good first time experience. But won't come back. Only saving grace is food and drinks. If you want a small bird meal. Read more
Tried this place for the first time. We were not disappointed. Inside, you'll be sitting inside of what resembles the inside of... an old ship. The ambiance is nice. It's on the dark side because the lighting is pretty dim. The A/C was blowing pretty fierce.I was fine but my wife was chilly. The views were very nice. We were able to see a very nice sunset over the harbor. The price?It is on the pricey side, so be prepared. Now, to the food. We started with the Calamari. It was seasoned well and was nice andcrispy. It was not the best we've had, but it was enjoyable. My wife ordered the Filet Mignon. She had it topped with dungenesscrab and bearnaise sauce. It came with Yukon gold mashed potatoes which was delicious, and asparagus. I ordered the Ribeyesteak. This came with the same delicious mashed potatoes and asparagus. The ribeye had a very nice char taste. It was seasonedwell and came in at 16oz. Honestly, it was not the best ribeye I've had, but I did enjoy it. It was a great evening out at aplace that I would go to again. Try it! Read more
Our first dining experience here, as they were one of the few restaurants open for Thanksgiving. Servers are hardworking and... work as a team helping each other. Members of our dining party have food allergies and our server Emily was fantastic andchecked on which entrees would be okay for them to eat. --Thank you so much! The turkey, prime rib, filet, and samplerappetizers were all good. The clam chowder was okay, the potatoes were a bit too chunky and not tender. Only salad option wasthe Caesar salad which was heavy on the dressing. We enjoyed our dining experience and will be back to try other items on themenu. Also, the manager was friendly and stopped by to make sure our Landry's points were added correctly. Read more
