Market Broiler Fremont

Went to Market Broiler with friends around 5 pm on a Tuesday. No waiting. We got our drinks and food in a timely manner. A couple of my friends ordered the same dish (Turf & Surf Tuesday) from their Daily Special Menu for only $19.00. The dish has shrimp ,steak, and a side of veggie and potatoes. I ordered chicken piccata with a side of rice pilaf and broccoli. For dessert, we shared a butter cake topped with ice cream and strawberries. My friends said their dish tasted good and the price is unbeatable. My dish was just okay. The chicken was a bit dry. The broccoli was cooked really well. The dessert was so good. The cake was melting in our mouths, and the ice cream complimented the cake really well. I definitely recommend getting this dessert.

Great experience! I got the Lobster roll and was pleased with my choice! There were so many seafood options to pick from! The nonstop Sour dough bread !?!?! Amazing! Definitely got me full to finally be topped off by the Lobster Roll! Chefs Kiss to the Chef who made my food! Well seasoned and plated! Enjoyed every bit of it! See my pictures for a before and after !

Nope 👎🏻 not recommending it! My seafood pasta had no seafood but only a few oysters that were not even washed clean because I was chewing on sands with every bite. Menu said, oysters, shrimp, calamari and scallops. My dish had none but the oysters. The tomato sauce was too salty. The service not so great. We had to stop the servers who were passing by. The price, good for a fine dining restaurant but this wasn’t one.

August 2025 I visited at lunchtime for a work lunch with colleagues and clients, group of 8. This is one of the nicer sit-down places for a good seafood lunch, especially if you would prefer table service. Weekday lunch was not too busy at 12noon. The lighting inside is a little dim, but not too noisy. Plenty of service staff walking around serving constantly. Due to the large menu with so many fish and seafood options, it took us a little while to order. If you know what you want, it shouldn't take too long to order and get the sourdough bread service. Butter is hard slices in a dish. We had a traditional calamari starter and then individual entrees for everyone. Food took a bit, but perhaps they were waiting for us to finish the appetizer. Everyone was quite happy with their plates. Most people ordered fish and one lobster roll. Photos attached are: swordfish, sliced ahi tuna, and fish & chips. There was a lighter lunch menu with a half portion for anyone who wants a starter and a small plate. Drink service was heavily aimed towards those who ordered fountain drinks (soda, lemonade, and iced tea). Refills for drinks arrived quickly and often, but water for the table required additional requests. Overall, a good place for a non-vegetarian lunch in south Fremont area. Plenty of free parking in the Old Navy parking lot.

During our road trip, we stumbled upon this hidden gem. The seating area was both beautiful and welcoming, creating a cozy atmosphere that immediately put us at ease. I ordered the sizzling seabass, and oh my goodness, it was by far the most delicious meal I had throughout my entire two-week road trip. Every bite was bursting with flavor, and the fish was perfectly cooked, tender, and flaky. The vegetables served alongside were generous, adding a perfect balance to the dish. I left feeling completely satisfied. If you ever pass through this city, make sure to stop by ; it's absolutely worth it!

Our waitress is very friendly and attentive. We ordered the Lobster Rolls, Crab Cake Slider, Harvest of the Sea, Jambalaya, Sweet & Spicy Calamari, New England Clam Chowder. Our favorites were the New England Clam Chowder, Lobster Rolls, Crab Cake Slider and Harvest of the Sea. The Jambalaya with linguini was not what my daughter had expected. It could be better. Overall experience was good.

Updated: So I paid a second visit to this establishment, reluctantly. Off gate we had a not so pleasant start. The hostess was luke warm at best. No greetings just a, how many. I get it sometimes we just have those days. I was promptly seated thats always a plus. I was seated for maybe a minute if that before someone swooped in with water. No more then 3 mis later my waitress came by with the refill and pleasantries. Throughout my whole lunch she was very attentive 7/5 🌟's. The food was WONDERFUL. Fish cooked perfectly, asparagus cooked perfectly, and the rice was also good. Oh my appetizer was delicious and that drink was nice. Smoky something can't remember the name atm. Well worth the $100 spent. Ok here we go. The host was polite. I was seated promptly. I was even asked if I was ok with being seat in a tall chair. The waiter was prompt. Took my order and gave me my 1st and last glass of water, I didn't know this just yet. So I ordered a cup of Clam Chowder. It tasted slightly below average. Presentation to me speaks volumes. The cup of soup had spillage all on the cup. As if it was used to scoop the soup out of the can. The Bone in Ribeye was unevenly cooked. Slightly below average on taste. Very chewy as if the cow knew his final end game and was stressed. I know this is a seafood spot, but if its on your menu and your charging $45 the cooks should be proficient in preparing the dish. The mashed potatoes were dry, dehydrated, and lacking moisture. Last time I seen mashed potatoes that dry I was 12 trying to make instant add water potatoes for the 1st time. I wouldn't be surprised if instant mashed potatoes was used. The asparagus was WONDERFUL cooked perfectly. The only thing on my plate done right. Other than my single glass of water. My waiter checked on me twice, not once did he offer to refill my glass. Yes I could have easily asked, but why. Its the small things that separate average and good restaurants. Small things like making sure the dish is presentable, or making sure the patron isn't in need of something simple as water or any drink, heck even removing the three menus that were cluttering the the table. The Sourdough bread was exceptional. This was the most disappointing $70 dinner I have had so far. I will definitely come back to risk my taste buds again to check out a seafood dish.

I enjoyed a Ribeye steak. It was fairly priced and paired with bread, potatoes, and asparagus. Also a chimichuri sauce for dipping. It was a bit on the salty side for me but I enjoyed it. The atmosphere feels like many big chain restaurants. If I went back I’d probably eat in the bar as that looked like a decent spot to watch a game.

Review: Low and slow is fine when you're smoking brisket, but not when you're waiting for basic service. I grabbed a seat at the bar, intentionally keeping an eye on how responsive and attentive things were. Unfortunately, the "one-man band" behind the bar was clearly overwhelmed. While the effort is appreciated, it took 25 minutes just to get bread and butter--and that set the tone. Bars aren't just overflow seating; they're where your most transactional customers sit. These are people in for quick service, a drink, maybe a bite before moving on. In many fine establishments, a barback or additional support is essential for exactly this reason. When you don't have that coverage, you risk neglecting guests who are just as valuable as sit-down diners--sometimes more so, given the pace and repeat visits. The food itself may well be worth the wait, but the experience left me thinking less about the menu and more about the mechanics of service. Attention to bar patrons isn't optional--it's the frontline of hospitality.

Terrible service, terrible food! We were so looking forward to this food, but it was awful! I got coconut shrimp that was very soggy and watered down colada sauce. I got shrimp skewers that were over cooked and cold, plus, veggies way undercooked and cold. Mashed potatoes were instant potatoes, yuck! My hubby got fish n chips and they were so greasy oil squished out of them . The coleslaw was bland as could be and fries cold. The server was slow to get to us, and slow to bring our food, then slow to gv our check. We won't ever go back!!

We came for a birthday lunch. We order 2 daily specials, which was the surf and turf, and the right size fish and chips. All of the food was cooked as we requested. The surf and turf is a skewer of at least 10 shrimp and a steak. The amazing part is the service. The restaurant was busy but we were immediately seated. We observed our waitress attend to the hostess desk if customers came in while the hostess was sitting others. She still got to her tables to fill drinks regularly. The bus person quickly cleared tables and did a very thorough job of clearing the tables, including the edges and seats on the chairs. Overall I will return.

Came here for happy hour which happens 3-6pm on weekdays. You can only get happy hour at the bar or on the patio. We sat at the bar area which seemed a little compact but it was still nice. Also it did get a little warm on the bar side but it was a hot day! The service was pretty good. It did take awhile for a server to actually get to us, but once they did, it was good. The food was good! We loved the calamari and poke nachos. They have a good amount on their happy hour menu on top of daily specials. I'd say the only negative thing I can say about the place is the additional fee for using credit cards. I'm used to seeing that at smaller mom and pop shops, but wouldn't expect it at a bigger restaurant.

Had reservations for a party of 12 on a Monday evening. We had to wait until at least half our party was there until we got seated. Once we were seated we were served pretty quickly. There's a good amount of seating inside and a patio outside. I ended up ordering the fettuccine Alfredo with crab. I loved that the crab was plentiful. It wasn't too cheesy but it was creamy. I enjoyed it. As a table we ordered the captains platter as an appetizer and there was a little bit of everything. The coconut shrimp was good and the crab flautas.

Had a chance to try Market Broiler today for Happy Hour with a friend and it was a nice experience. The happy hour timings are pretty generous and on a Sunday they had it around 2 pm which was nice. We ended up going in and seated pretty quickly . The ambiance here is nice and definitely a nice place to come with friends. For for we ordered: * calamari - this was a little dry but not bad and came with a cocktail like sauce. * Poke Nachos - I really enjoyed this as they came on top of Wonton chips which I really loved * crunchy shrimp roll - this was a simple sushi roll but yummy and came with a lot of pieces which was nice Overall, decent good and a good bang for your buck - would recommend for one to check out!

I love this place! I've been here so many times, usually for birthdays, anniversaries, or whenever I want to treat myself. It's perfect for special occasions because the food is really good but not fancy or stuffy. Prices are fair, and there's a ton of variety on the menu. It kinda reminds me of King's Fish House in San Jose, which I know a lot of people like, but honestly, I prefer Market Broiler. I've tried a bunch of different things over the years, and here's how I'd rate them: * Clam Chowder - 8/10 Really solid. Good amount of clams and not too fishy. * Wedge Salad - 5/10 Pretty basic. It's fine but nothing special. * Steamed Clams - 8/10 Tons of garlic and the broth is super flavorful. Great for dipping. * Traditional Calamari - 6/10 Not overly battered which I liked, but it came with a lot of tentacles which isn't really my thing. * Shrimp and Crab Flautas - 7/10 Really tasty, but I wish there was more crab in them. * Salmon Oscar - 10/10 My go-to order. Everything on the plate is perfect. Highly recommend. * Bone-in Ribeye Steak - 8/10 Cooked well and super flavorful. Great option if you're not in the mood for seafood. * Shrimp Skewers & Golden Shrimp - Can't remember the exact score, but they were both solid picks too. Service is always friendly and the atmosphere is relaxed. Definitely one of my favorite spots to go back to.

Market Broiler at Pacific Commons on a Monday at Noon was a good choice. We sat outside and i wss able to enter through the small iron gate as my friend was already seated there, and although it was a warm one, under the umbrella it was just perfect with a bit of wind blowing. Me and my friend continued with an order of Mai Tai's and they were cold and fruity taking me back to the ones I've had in Hawaii. We then ordered a Calamari starter, which was perfect and our waitress brought over the sliced bread and butter standard at all tables. Looking at the Menu I really couldn't decide. Our waitress then directed us to a new lunch menu and from there I easily ordered the Salmon bowl. It was the perfect choice of salmon and veggies. This place is the perfect go-to when I'm in this Fremont area of town. See you soon!

It is illegal in California to charge customers more for using a credit card even if you tell them upfront. This was banned in 2024. Edit for reply: that's a bad interpretation. Disclosure only applies to "mandatory" fees. Credit card fee is not a mandatory fee because you accept cash payment therefore it is still illegal under SB478. See California Civil Code Section 1748.1.

Come for the food. Stay for the bread. Market Broiler always been moms favorite so it had to be a go to for this past Mother's Day. She got her usual Fisherman's Stew and shared that with my dad. The kiddos enjoy e the fish and chips and the wife and I chowed down on some noodles and shell fish. Oysters and mussels and.. can't forget about the sourdough bread!

Early Friday dinner - not busy @ 6, server was attentive. The dining room started to get full but wasn't overly loud. Food came out relatively quick and appetizers were paced. The kids portion is bigger than anticipated and kids enjoyed it. The masterpiece platter was a hit with the variety and the oysters were delicious. Also enjoyed the poke nachos. Sadly the lobster & crab were not as delicious as we were hoping... a bit overcooked and dry/chewy. The seafood stew is a must order. We MIGHT consider coming back or trying something different if we're in the area...not as impressed with the lobster & crab as we hoped.

Had a great time eating dinner! The food was very fresh and the portions were pretty big, making the price worth it. I tried their spring mix cocktail and it was deliciously refreshing! The service was efficient and everyone was very helpful. Their sweet and spicy calamari is a must-try! It was very crispy and packed with flavor. Overall, I had a great time and would love to come back soon!

The food is still just okay here after about 4 years of not coming but the service is still good. We just got some appetizers. Poke Nachos with Fried Wonton Wraps with soy sauce, spicy mayo, green onion, serrano pepper & avocado was good. Bacon Wrapped Prawns with little mixed greens & Bourbon BBQ sauce was okay Fresh Steamers with Mussels had no taste. Need it something, maybe more butter and or garlic. Not Good!!! Only come here because my wife likes some of their drinks.

This was a totally "unlikely" find that I was so pleasantly surprised by! Market Broiler came up on my OpenTable, rather than a trendy TikTok/IG post, so I wasn't sure what to expect. SERVICE: Shoutout to our waitress Alondra, so professional and incredible at her job. We made reservations but on a Sunday afternoon it wasn't very full so probably not needed. FOOD: I loved their "Creative Combos" section. For just $28, you get to pick 2 sides and 2 proteins ("land", shellfish, or fish). I found this to be an incredible deal. The portions weren't giant but they were certainly very filling. I ended up having to take food home! I'd highlight the "cheesy potatoes" as a side and the miso-glazed mahi-mahi. An excellent cut of fish with a seasoning that wasn't too overpowering. I would definitely come back here with a large group for a birthday or celebration. The menu is full of variety, prices are so fair for the quality, and there's lots of space for a big party to enjoy their experience.

Came in for Mother's Day dinner based on a friend's recommendation! We had a reservation for 7:00 PM but arrived early. Thankfully, they were able to seat us right away. The ambiance was lively, very busy, and quite loud. The lighting was also dim -- not sure how I felt about that overall. DRINKS Mai Tai - 9/10: Reminded me of the Mai Tais I had in Hawaii. The serving was generous, and the flavor was on point. Lychee Martini - 7/10: On the sweeter side. You could taste the syrup more than the alcohol, which I didn't mind at all. STARTERS The Masterpiece - 10/10: Basically, the whole ocean in one dish -- and I loved it! The poke was delicious, the scallops were fresh, and the oysters were solid. The California maki added a nice touch, almost like a palate cleanser from all the raw seafood. Oysters on the Half Shell - 10/10: Really good and super fresh! ENTRÉES Sesame-Crusted Ahi - 8/10: The Ahi was perfectly crusted. It's not heavily seasoned (as expected since it's served raw), but the rice that came with it really brought the dish together. Crispy Beer-Battered Fish & Chips - 7/10: The fish was fresh and perfectly battered. The real letdown was the coleslaw -- it was bland and lacked flavor. Overall: I'm really happy with my experience at Market Broiler. Everything we ordered was enjoyable, and the seafood, in particular, stood out. Would definitely come back!

This is first time for us. We ordered appetizers parmesan garlic fries and grilled fish tacos. Their fish tacos really huge portion but taste is so delicious For main course we opt for miso salmon and island salmon bowl. In miso salmon, their homemade sauce and spices are topnotch. My favorite part is their coconut cilantro rice. This is the first time I'm tasting this rice. Island salmon bowl is pretty good. Service is friendly Ambiance is good.

Came here after a hike to Mission Peak and man it was great. Food amazing, atmosphere is great and the people are great. Here's what we got Shrimp & Crab Flauta amazing Coconut Shrimp was great, but the sauce was a bit overpowering Parmesan Crusted Halibut was presentation and taste was on point The bread they bring out early was really good, but that butter is something else. This place is 5 stars but our service wasn't that great. The waiter was on it in the beginning of our meal, but then disappeared for the rest of our meal. Asked for a refill and he was gone for about 10 minutes and mind you it's 2pm on a Thursday. It wasn't busy with one other couple in the whole restaurant and we never got that refill. Overall a really great restaurant and I'll for sure will be back.

Had a good time here for Father's Day lunch. I made reservation ahead of time but it didn't look too busy. They give a lot of free bread which was bad for me being on a diet but my family liked it. The seafood linguini was good. It wasn't that much seafood and I didn't eat the pasta so I was still a bit hungry after. If you love carbs this place is for you!

Driest of all, our waiter Isaiah was really attentive and friendly. The bread was nice and warm. The fried calamari was crispy and it was not chewy. I loved my salmon bowl, but I wish it had a bit more sauce. My friends enjoyed their dishes too. I was extremely unhappy to pay a $2 fee to use my credit card to pay the bill. I have never encountered this before, and I do not appreciate it.

Grrr... so a new menu came out today and we did not like the miso sea bass yet they still charged us for it. The sea bass was burnt and the rice was gross, we did not eat it. We gave an honest opinion to the server and by the time a sub option for potatoes was asked we were already done with our dinner. We try to support our local restaurants because the are closing left and right. I do believe our server tried to get the dish omitted (not for certain) but management said no and for that... you will get another low rating, unfortunately. Do better...

Big day out for lunch. Been going to Market Broiler since they first opened over by Olive Garden. My trout was burned on top and so dry. The slaw was yucky. I use to love their slaw, think it must of changed. I had ordered two. Did not eat the rest of fish or slaw. My waitress finally came by to see how everything was. I explained the burnt and dry fish. I think she would have re done but by then I was ready to leave. I am really surprised they would serve something that looked so bad. Only good part of my lunch was the nice side salad and sourdough bread. Not sure I will return to one of my favorite restaurants in Fremont.

We decided to meet at the spot for dinner with some friends. It's located in the shopping center so there may not be parking right in front, but there is plenty of parking around. It was pretty busy for Friday night, so I'm glad I had reservations. We were greeted and sat rather promptly. We started with appetizers. We had the sweet and spicy calamari and they tasted amazing. Our server recommended the poke nachos and I highly recommend if you can eat raw fish and like a little spice. They have slices of jalapeños which added to another layer of flavor. For dinner, I ordered the chicken piccata. I expected it to be creamy so it wasn't to the best of my liking but still good. The rice was abundant, but a bit dry for me. I had a taste of the salmon and it was perfect. It was moist and flavorful. I complemented my meal with a glass of Chardonnay, which was a perfect pairing. I can't forget about the complementary bread. It was warm and soft. Our server was nice and checked up on us periodically. It's a nice spot for a casual dinner with friends.

Market Broiler used to be a treat my family and I would dine at every weekend. Upon entering, the place seemed clean, seating was quick, and service was friendly. Every table was served sourdough bread, which felt a little old considering it was tough to chew. Didn't dive in to it too much with it since we ordered other dishes as well Poke nachos are a hit! They were very refreshing and delicious. The chips were crispy and the fish tasted fresh. I got a creative combo for $33 (Steak was an extra $3) along with the Alaskan Salmon, cheesy potatoes, and coleslaw. Disappointed to say the least. For the $33 plate, the portioning was extremely small. I remember coming back here years ago and it had bigger portioning of the proteins. Steak had a perfect medium rare cook and it was tender but that was honestly the only highlight. Salmon was bland and dry, the lemon and tar tar sauce helped somewhat. The cheesy potatoes were also a bit bland, and the coleslaw tasted bitter and sour. Gross. Definitely not purchasing again The lobster roll was decent but for $24, super small portioning. Could finish it in 4 bites. The fries were seasoned nicely though and the aioli sauce was good but that's really about it. Market Broiler has definitely changed over time in terms of pricing and quality. A bit disappointing, might as well go to Fisherman's Wharf

My first time here! There's a big selection of food and daily specials. We did the taco Tuesday daily special, so it was worth it. The tacos were pretty big and fulfilling. Liked the sauce. 4/5 Clam chowder: pretty good for something you can get outside of the pier 4/5 Sweet and spicy calamari: this was big portion sized and flavorful 5/5 Overall good service and good food. It come back if I'm craving seafood.

Pretty packed house on a Saturday night. Food and service were excellent. Food quickly came out and was delicious!

The service was great and the food was very good and delicious. My whole family was satisfied with their order and had a full tummy lol.

It's been a while since we have been to Nor Cal, but our experience here was as wonderful as the last time. This past Sunday, my husband and I got to enjoy the happy hour in the bar. Everything was wonderful. The clam pot has the perfect medium level kick of spice and was full of clams. The bbq shrimp was so delicious and the portions were huge. My husband loved his crab and shrimp flautas. The grilled mahi mahi tacos were fresh and flavorful. We had a couple glasses of happy hour wine and left as happy campers. The service was great and ambiance was busy but not overwhelming. We will definitely be back again.

Good ambiance. Good food. Seafood and steak options are available. Restaurant can handle small and large groups. Low noise environment allows for comfortable conversations.

This is our first time visiting Market Broiler and it was extremely lively even on a Tuesday evening. Our server was so patient and sweet that she made the entire experience better. Unfortunately, we didn't really enjoy the food, but it may have just been what we ordered. Fisherman's stew (2/5) - the linguine was good, but all the seafood was extremely dry and overcooked. The shrimp and lobster were both extremely tough and dry and the mussels tasted like they were old. Charbroiled oysters (2/5) - unfortunately, these just had a burnt taste and the oysters were extremely fishy Poke nachos (5/5) - these were delicious! Definitely a must-get and the highlight of our meal. Sourdough (5/5) - if I could just come here to eat the sourdough exclusively, I would. It's just a tad crispy on the outside (not hard) and warm and soft on the inside. We ended up getting seconds and finished it. I think we may have just gotten items that didn't suit us. I am interested in coming back to try the ribeye (which I saw great reviews for!) and their sea bass. Note that they do have a 3% credit card processing fee.

Nice ambience and service. Fisherman's stew is must try. Clam chowder is so so, not the best I had. Sundae brights up the birthday celebration.

The lobby has displays of all the different types of seafood and crustaceans, and looks quite fresh. They seated us in the bar area. They do give you complementary fresh and hot sourdough bread with butter. It is very good but don't fill up on it. I ordered the Chilean Seabass and it was sizzling and delicious. It melted in your mouth, I did not care for the rice. It was coconut, parsley and cilantro just too many notes of flavor. I like my rice more plain. My friend ordered the 10 ounce lobster and it was huge. He had to take it to go cause you couldn't finish it all. The calamari appetizer was OK. It had a chili sauce on it and gave it some cake I highly recommend this place for fresh seafood, and great service.

For the first time, I was not pleased with several of the things during our visit. Had not been in for several months. Pluses + No waiting. Patio seating is on the quiet side. Sport fan will like the TVs. The bread will always be the highlight! I always forget to ask for vinegar and oil when they bring it. Server is a nice young lady. Minuses - Almost everything food related that we ate was really bland tasting. Like no seasoning was used in the preparation at all. Food: The presentation was nice. The wedge salad was ok. Love the fresh crunch of a half head of lettuce. Dressed up but no flavor for being blue cheese. I can't stand instant potatoes but underneath the beautiful halibut filet was a heap of instant cheese potatoes. Fish fillet pieces were very small compared to the past visits. Rice pilaf was plain and very little flavor. Service was slow which almost made me regret sitting on the patio. We weren't refilled on drinks unless we asked. Our server seemed rushed. This was one of my favorite places but sometimes things change. I won't be spending my money here again. Sorry MB it was a good run.

Food: the best dish is literally the appetizer. Tuna tacos are very very nice. The rest of the dishes are just okay. We've been here twice due to a company event, and the portion or seasoning of main is just okay. Service: they are super busy and take a long time before they take your drink order and then take your food order...basically starved, but they have an amazing warm attitude. Ambiance: it's a nice restaurant in general.

Updated: So I paid a second visit to this establishment, reluctantly. Off gate we had a not so pleasant start. The hostess was luke warm at best. No greetings just a, how many. I get it sometimes we just have those days. I was promptly seated thats always a plus. I was seated for maybe a minute if that before someone swooped in with water. No more then 3 mis later my waitress came by with the refill and pleasantries. Throughout my whole lunch she was very attentive 7/5 's. The food was WONDERFUL. Fish cooked perfectly, asparagus cooked perfectly, and the rice was also good. Oh my appetizer was delicious and that drink was nice. Smoky something can't remember the name atm. Well worth the $100 spent.

Love this place the food and service is always great!! Love the nice home feel ambience!

Happy hours M-F 5pm to 630pm Great price and free appetizers with Yelp check in Place is not too busy on Monday evening f but still lacks services Food is a bit heavy but favorable Love the bacon sprouts with a hint of swee and savory Clam chowders food but a bit creamy and heavy Overall is ok.

This was my first visit to a Market Broiler and I'd say it's typical of the suburban chain restaurants you find in large shopping centers (Cheesecake Factory, Olive Garden, Outback, Wood Ranch etc). Restaurant is large and the decor made me feel like i was in a lodge of some sort. Large fish hanging on the walls, brick walls, and wood paneling. Having said that, i think the food is pretty good but nothing amazing. Free calamari with check-in. Drinks were fairly large. Also, there were little things that could've gone better during our visit as well (items missing, slow service, drink mix up, and inaccurate bill) but overall a decent visit.

The wait wasn't too long since we had a reversion and it was super crowded at 5PM on a Sunday. The Taste The sweet calamari was consistent and was yummy and tart. I had NY steak, loaded potatoes, scallop with bacon (bacon was tiny not wrapped around like I thought). My partner had lobster ravioli which he liked. My dad got the fish and chips which was classic. The drinks My partner got an old fashioned and they made me a blue Hawaii blended on the rocks which was strong and good. Service They just forgot my BBQ sauce which they brought to me later. They put out the crunchy kale salad with chicken before our other entrees which was great. Verdict We would come here again, my partner loved it so much the first time I brought him again here again and again.

Market Broiler in Fremont is spot that is decent and good if you are craving some simple seafood. It has a fancy aura to it, but I feel like it is more similar to chain stores type of vibe. ITEMS I TRIED: - Halibut with Lemon: this was pretty decent but the breading was a bit weird for me, because it wasn't really crunchy but just a soft layer over the fish. I ended up taking off the breading and just eating the fish portion. - Calamari: okay, but nothing special. We ordered the spicy version and I think there was just a bit too much going on. There was quite a bit of breading on this. PARKING: there is a good amount of parking nearby because it is in a plaza PRICE: on the pricier side because it is a seafood restaurant Overall, I probably would not want to come back unless someone asked me to go. It's a place that will do if you just want a cozy vibe serving up seafood.

The food here does not disappoint! I was a little worried when I heard it was over rated but that was not the case at all! The food here is fresh and the service goes above and beyond. When we asked what came in the cheese potatoes the manager came over and brought us a sample which was so kind of him to do so. I love how despite our big party none of our drinks ran dry and we all were waited on in a timely fashion. The fish and seafood was all fresh and you could tell it was cooked to perfection. I loved the little cute touches of adding flowers to the plate to make it look even more appetizing! We will definitely be back soon to try out other entrees!

We've been eating here for years, and let me tell ya... I still prefer MB place over Red Lobster! I most likely have written a review for this particular location so I'll keep this short and more of an extension to my original review. With that being said, here's the reason for the updated review: THE SERVICE. Note the date: Thursday, November 21st... my wife and I had a very bad day at our respected jobs. It was stressful, frustrating and we both just felt overwhelmed. I suggested we go to market broiler and met there. I wish I remembered the name of server that served us because she turned that rough day at work into a wonderful dinner that included 2 delicious entrees, 2 adult beverages and dessert! How did the service stand out? It's the simple things that go a long way; she was responsive, the wait for our dishes did not take long considering how busy it was and she was simply genuinely kind. She didn't know what we were going through but gave us a wonderful dinner date that ended on a happy note.

Took Doris to Market Broiler for a belated dinner celebration with Mom and the boys for her birthday on the evening of Monday, August 5, 2024. This was my first visit to MB GRILLE (what they now call themselves on their menu) in decades. Venue: 3 stars. As I mentioned before, a long time had passed since I had last been to Market Broiler. I wasn't even aware that they had moved from their original location on Farwell Drive. Now at the Pacific Commons Shopping Center, they still have ample parking in the lot. I don't recall if the prior locale had outdoor seating, but the new place has a good-sized patio for dining al fresco. The entire place appeared decently well kept; however, they could turn up a notch the attention to the women's restroom. The fact that a silver fish was discovered in our booth also displeased and scared everyone in our party. Food: 4 stars. Below are the items that we were served: MISSION BAY MAI TAI ($15) - Very good, according to Doris and Z. PISCO SOUR - Mom asked if they served Pisco Sours, but our server, Melissa, said that the bar didn't make them. Later, she returned with Mike, the bartender, and a pisco sour that he test-made for Mom on the house, his first ever making a drink with egg. It was a success. COCONUT SHRIMP ($16, but free with Yelp check-in) - The shrimp were ok. The Piña colada flavour of the dipping sauce really came through which was impressive. OYSTERS ON THE HALF SHELL [6] ($18) - I don't touch these, so can't comment on them. Doris and Mom had no complaints. LOBSTER ROLL ($24.50) - Z ordered this dish from the HANDHELDS section of the menu as a starter since Melissa told him that it was more of a snack size. He liked it, but said that he has had better elsewhere. For the price, it was fabulous. NEW ENGLAND CLAM CHOWDER ($9.25) - This was V's very first cup ever of this creamy soup. It was a great first impression for him. SIZZLING SEA BASS ($39.50) - The fish was flaky and moist, but too salty for my liking. Mom did not like the Cheese Potatoes at all. Melissa happily replaced them with another side. FETTUCCINI ALFREDO ($20.50 + $9 for Add Crab) - Both Z and V ordered this pasta dish with crab and gave it a thumbs up. FISHERMAN'S STEW ($39.50) - Doris was happy with her very hearty dish. VIRGIN STRAWBERRY COLADA - V's drink was creamy strawberry yumminess. BUILD YOUR OWN SURF & TURF; FILET MIGNON ($38) + 1/2 LB WILD ALASKAN KING CRAB ($31) - My order was very good. The steak was cooked perfectly medium rare and the crab leg was a good, thick portion. The crab meat was delightfully sweet, too. I did have Melissa ask the kitchen to crack the leg more, though, because I was initially experiencing difficulty with cracking the shell. BIRTHDAY SUNDAE (Complimentary with $6 value) - Doris' exact words were, "I liked the ice cream sundae, it was good." Service: 5 stars. Service was stellar. Vibrant, extremely friendly with warm smiles, and helpful with honest opinions of dishes, Melissa was a top-notch server. Mike, the bartender, was also super awesome. The love for their jobs and working with customers truly shined through in how well they treated us. They really left such a great impression on us. This was Z and V's first visit to Market Broiler. Both of them said that they would happily return. The experience also won Mom over and that's BIG! Thank you, MB GRILLE, for the great dinner. Looks like we will be back!

Average seafood restaurant in Fremont, they have a full service bar with limited tv seating in the bar area, the refrigeration area where they show the seafood is very fishy at times, so sometimes I wonder how fresh the seafood is. I usually get the food thoroughly cooked and never order their raw food. Their staff is not great at shucking oysters as there are usually shell remnants in the oyster so I never got it again

Good experience overall. Some of the dishes can be quite pricey, but the food is tasty! They have a great selection of entrees for even the pickiest eater. Service was on point both times I went, and they have crayons and coloring pages for children. Ambiance isn't anything special or unique, but they have a decent amount of seating, as well as outdoor patio on warmer nights. Would come back here for a solid fish dish. I enjoyed their sea bass and ribeye. We were disappointed in the charbroiled oysters. Calamari was basic.

The restaurant atmosphere gave boathouse. The decor accented the wood nicely. The food was also pretty good! Not something I'd crave, but wouldn't mind going there again. If I go again, there's a fair chance I'd order the lobster roll once more (taste-wise it was a solid 8/10). Service was fine, they didn't go above and beyond, but they might also have been short staffed. Either way, they did their jobs efficiently and got the food to us in a timely manner. If you live in the area, you should try MB at least once :)

Warm and relaxing ambiance. Service was good, our server made sure to check up on us enough. Love the cheese potatoes. Steak was tender and was tasty even without the chimichurri. Although, the chinuchurri made it better. Lobster roll was delicious even without the big slice of pickle which I think was added more as an extender than to add flavor. Poke Nachos was salty.

Great service! Friendly staff! I like their sourdough bread with butter. The food is delicious, but I think it's a bit too salty for me. They do have a nice atmosphere. I don't know if we can request the food to be less sodium (maybe next visit I will request less sodium).

We stopped on our way to Paso Robles for dinner. My wife found this place. We must have hit it right - we got right in. A large party came in after us. This was a road trip, so we skipped the appetizers, alcohol and desserts, and just went with soft drinks (tea, root beer) and the main course. I had their Blackened Swordfish, and my wife had the Rainbow Trout. I'll start with the Blackened Swordfish. It was served on a nice bed of cheesy potatoes, with an assortment of vegetables (carrots, broccoli, cauliflower). The carrots were half-raw - which means they were hard to chew. The Swordfish itself was nicely seasoned and tasty. It was a little soft (one of the reasons I like Swordfish is it is more firm), but still tasted great. My wife liked her Rainbow Trout. It was served steaming hot, and it was tender and tasty. She had the same problem with the carrots on her vegetable assortment. The Trout had some capers and a nice sauce - I tried a bite, and it was quite good. Service was strong - once we had our order in, we had a nice chunk of hard crusted bread with butter, and the drink glasses stayed full. This has an interesting fish-place ambiance.

Been coming here a few times for years but I had a great experience ironically for a take out order here last week so I wanted to give them a 5 star review. I came in around 6 and asked them if I could schedule a take out order for around 6:50, I had to hop on a conference call in my car and right after my call I wanted to grab my food and go. The gentleman who was handling take out orders was great (his name began with a J I think, young guy) he did a great job taking my orders, super friendly and helpful as well. When I came back to pick up my order I decided to add a dessert to my order and he took my food back to keep warm while I waited for my dessert, he also packed the ice cream in a separate bag so it wouldn't melt next to the hot food. Really happy with my experience here!
