Description:
The bustling Fish Market at the end of the G Street Pier on the Embarcadero is a San Diego institution. Chalkboards announce the day's catches, which are sold by the pound or available in a number of classic, simple preparations in the casual, always-packed restaurant. Upstairs, the fancy offshoot Top of the Market offers sea fare with souped-up presentations (and jacked-up prices). I recommend having a cocktail in Top's plush, clubby atmosphere to enjoy the panoramic bay views, and then heading downstairs for more affordable fare or treats from the sushi and oyster bars. There's another Fish Market in Del Mar at 640 Via de la Valle (tel. 858/755-2277), and a counter outlet in Mission Valley at 2401 Fenton Pkwy. (tel. 619/280-2277).

Average lunch

Nice view but disappointing lunch. Service was slow as it is a busy place. Loud. Good place to take kids, but keep them entertained with toys, etc.

Horrible Service

We have had reasonably good experiences at the Fish Market in the past (in SF Bay area), but not this time. We made a reservation at the Fish market in San Diego for a party of 16 people...

This is a great place for seafood, a little expensive, but very good. There is usually a line of people out the door, but we went for lunch and it wasn't that bad. I usually ask...
