Scott's Seafood Grill & Bar

Excellent food and service. Perfect scenic view and lovely live jazz piano playing. It’s such a gem in the waterfront of Oakland Jack London area. Watching the water taxi ferrying between Alameda and Oakland was quite interesting. Food- clam chowder was tasty and creamy , I could go for another cup. Raw oysters from British Columbia were fresh and sweet. The house made sauces were great pairing with the oysters. Rockerfella oysters and fish and chips were also fantastic. Crispy and not too salty. Fish was juicy inside with sufficient temperature heat. The string fries were very good. Blue cheese Romain salad with bacon were crisp and delicious. Overall very satisfying meal in a beautiful sunny afternoon .

Some of the best oysters to date. Got a dozen for the table then went light with their seafood salad, which was very nice, then went straight for 2 great deserts (Pecan Pie and Cheese Cake). Coffee was fantastic. Had a window seat with a great view of dive bombing pelicans. Fun experience. Will explore the bigger fare next time. Service was good but very ok....from the host to the waiter to the bussing service...most had a very sober demeanor which really makes you wonder what management was like.

Celebrated NYE at Scott's having their flash fried octopus, seafood pasta, and lobster stuffed ravioli with a special holiday bourbon cocktail. Everything was tasty to delicious, service is a real class act, and the atmosphere is like being lost in a painting. I don't need to reccomend Scott's it's a staple here in Oakland, one of the few operations keeping JLS alive, but I can't reccomend them enough.

Excellent food. Great waiter. Thank you. We had 15 people wedding reception

We hosted our post-wedding luncheon at Scott’s, and it was a wonderful experience. The atmosphere was perfect, and everything was organized beautifully. The food was absolutely delicious, with generous and well-balanced portions. We had a customized menu, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making the entire event easy to plan. Communication was clear throughout, and the whole process went very smoothly. It’s an excellent place for a small gathering of around 20 people—highly recommended.

This restaurant has a great location. The views of the water are nice, and it has many quiet seats for a romantic evening meal. I visit here occasionally with my Darling, and we are always well-catered to by the team. The food is so tasty, and the presentation makes it even more delightful. There's a parking garage nearby, or you can hire a ride service. Either way, I like the trendy area with many sights and activities. There's a free shuttle across the waterway to what appears to be an excellent spot for a walk. It's a very active area around the restaurant, so I plan to make a day of it on my next visit. So one of my favorite places to visit over the last couple of years.

I have visited Scott's on many occasions but never for a reception for a restaurant. This was quite a joyous occasion and I really appreciated how nicely the restaurant was decorated in the back and how it was all set up. Overall it's definitely would be a great option for hosting events in the future

Our first time here and extremely disappointed. Service was great. The place looks nice and festive. Loved the live piano and the view was just amazing. The food, however, was awful. The calamari came drenched in butter- not even crispy. The fish and chips that our teens ordered was not very good. Crab salad was not that great ( I was excited to try it- it should have been amazing). The only thing that seemed fresh were the veggies that came on each plate. Most of our plates were full of food when we asked for them to be cleared. Nobody asked why we didn’t eat much. Still, we had a good time there and normally, I wouldn’t even write a review but since the meal cost almost $400 for our group of 4, I felt I needed to. The food should be better for that price.
