Fog Harbor Fish House

There are a lot of food choices on Pier 39.

I usually go to Fog Harbor Fish House.

Prepping the shrimp.

Great view of the sunset from the dining room.

Dinner started with fresh sourdough bread.  They buy the dough from Boudin and bake a batch hourly.  The outside is crispy while the inside is fluffy.  There was a strong sour flavor.

I ordered the mixed grill plate.  French fries were crunchy and had a nice potato flavor.  Shrimp were plump, juicy, with a strong bay seasoning flavor.  I liked the shrimp.  Cod was grilled with a slightly spicier seasoning.  I liked this dish but the mild flavor and the cod was hidden by the seasoning.  Salmon was grilled with a seasoning that had a sweet component.  I loved the interplay between the savory salmon and the sweet flavor from the dry rub.

Vanilla creme brûlée had a mixture of sweet flavors from the crunchy crust and the creme under the crust.  I loved the vanilla flavor.  This dessert is big enough to share and I did but I could eat the whole thing myself.
Cozy fire in the waiting area.
Service was attentive but rushed as we arrived during the dinner rush on Saturday night.  There is an air of mystery with each visit.  You never know what fresh seafood will be available.  I enjoy relaxing in a comfy booth watching the sun set on the bay after a long day of tourist activities.
