It was our first time trying cioppino.

5/5 by Matt F. on 04/06/2022

I would def go back and get this again, although be warned it can get messy. A bowl of this and appetizer of clams was enough food for two, and it was very good food. They have effectively mastered this dish over the years.

Service: Service could have been better.

5/5 by Elaine C. on 04/05/2022

Although they were attentive, they weren't very friendly (even to each other). Food: They start you off with complementary bread and you have the option to make the lil olive oil and balsamic vinegar mix Italian places always have. The bread was not warm at all once we got it, I can't remember if it used to be baked and warm before when I used to come here. The risotto with seafood is so good. Appearance-wise, when I first saw it, I was kinda lowkey thinking my home-made risotto was going to beat it, but once I took a bite, everything changed. This surpassed all my expectations. Everything down to the texture, flavor, and variety was nailed. All I can say is, if you're coming here, don't doubt that seafood risotto. The Fettuccine with bay scallops on the other hand, looked very good, but once I bit into it, the lack of seasoning was evident. I ended up just putting a bit of black pepper in there to kick up the flavor a bit. Tip: We came here in between lunch and dinner time so we were seated really quick.

We were excited about their cioppino after watching a YouTube video. Not believing the order served two people, we ordered 4 of them for take out. They came in 4 plastic pails and bread. Since the pails were not full, we had no idea how much we went overboard. Three of us finished all the foods in 4 days. Definitely need to take a break from cioppino. Delicious and worth it.

this place is located in north beach next to Golden boy Pizza. I have been here maybe 10 times and the food is always delish. this time I ordered the crab salad, streamed clams and mussels and a couple shooters and of course lots of sourdough and butter. washed it down with couple of classes of wine. Sometimes the wait is kind of long, there is a bar next door that the pager will work at to let you know your table is ready.

5/5 by Andy B. on 04/04/2022

When we arrived, there was a line, so I think the owner came out and started giving everyone a glass of wine while we waited. I ordered the Cioppino during that visit, and it was excellent.Today, I the fish of the day, which was a Monkfish served in a creamy tomato sauce with blistered cherry tomatoes and fresh herbs. With it came a side of buttery white wine risotto. The Monkfish was beautifully prepared, and the first taste of the tomato sauce mixed with a bit of the risotto made me want to cry it tasted so good. I had a small bottle of Chinotto, which was really a lovely alternative to my normal beer or wine. It was a perfect day and a perfect meal.

If you like seafood and Cioppino, this place is a must.

4/5 by Kaley N. on 04/03/2022

I would definitely recommend making reservations because this place is popular and you'll want a table. We sat towards the back of the restaurant at a four top. It was quite loud but it's a fun environment. Everyone is excited to be there because the food is so good. The group of us split the Lobster Ravioli per the recommendation of a friend and this did not disappoint. The pink sauce was a great topping to some of the best lobster raviolis I've ever had. I would definitely get this again as a starter/sharing dish. And for the star of the meal, the Cioppino. Both of us couples each got one to split with our significant other. This is worth the wait and worth the hype. It's enough food for two people and comes with some noodles at the bottom of the dish. There is plenty of fish and seafood in the dish to satisfy two hungry people. This is my favorite Cioppino in all of SF and it does not disappoint.

It's bland. In addition, we made a reservation for 1 PM, and the lady owner didn't sit all 4 of us until my hubby found a parking space, so we ended up waiting so long because the vacant seats were given to other people. I also had my mom in the wheelchair who waited that long.

The seafood dishes here are amazing.

5/5 by Sam T. on 04/02/2022

We went here to celebrate my dad's birthday on a Thursday night. We made a reservation by calling them (they don't use an online system) and were able to book it for 6pm just a few days prior. We were a group of 6 and sat at the lower level. The seafood is so fresh and the service was fast in serving the food. I highly recommend! Just note that street parking in North Beach is difficult, but there are a few parking garages nearby. Favorites- Best Damn Crab Cioppino: very generous serving of seafood. Can definitely serve more than two! Tomato stew was super rich and deep in flavor. Also good the next day if you can't finish it at the resto!- Seafood Risotto: amazing! Must order!- Seared Sea Scallops: so fresh and the spinach side was also delicious.- Linguine with Seafood (white cream sauce): sooo creamy!- Crab Louis Salad: super generous with the already shredded crab. Crab was so fresh!!! Great for crab lovers who don't want to do the work of de-shelling. Alright- Boston Clam Chowder with Bacon: my family thought it was good but has too much bacon flavor that overpowered the seafood- Lobster Ravioli: very creamy but was overshadowed by the other dishes

A bit disappointing

3/5 by Mario A on 03/27/2022

We made a reservation and our table was ready early which was nice. We sat outside in a parklet. It was a bit loud since it was on the street.

We were seated by the hostess and had to wait almost 15 minutes for wa waitress to come to the table. We ordered the blue cheese salad, the Cioppino, the sauteed Calamari and the Mussel and Clam combo

The food was average. The one thing that was really good was the Mussel and Clam combo. The Cioppino had a bit of flavor but needed a bit more salt. The salad was good. The pomodoro sauce on the calamari could have been a bit better.

I wish the food and the service was better.

Amazing meal

5/5 by Darin on 03/23/2022

What an amazing experience. We cannot compliment this place enough! The food, the atmosphere and especially the service were all incredible.
We read about Sotto Mare while planning a visit to SF from Colorado. We love Italian cuisine and seafood. We didn’t have a reservation and it seemed like it might be tough to get in, but we decided to hustle over after our Alcatraz tour for and early dinner. The owner met us at the door and was very friendly and sat us immediately. We flew in really early that day and had a huge day of walking around the city and Alcatraz Island, so by the time we sat down we were worn out and starving. The server was so accommodating and brought us bread right away. She also took her time to explain some of the options we were not as familiar with. When we were uncertain about which bottle of wine we wanted, she brought us a taster of each, both were delicious and a decent deal at $35/bottle.
The food was incredible. We started with oysters. Our oldest had the seafood risotto. Our two youngest had seafood pasta (mussels, shrimp, calamari, scallops, etc). My wife and I split the cioppino and it was heavenly and more than enough.
Being in SF everything is pricey, but I can honestly say that I thought that for what we got that this place was a value. The prices were more than fair for the quality of the meal.
I highly recommend this place whether out for a date or with your family. Make a reservation or go early because it deservedly popular!

I came here last night for late dinner.

1/5 by Lillian S. on 03/20/2022

We came at a off time to avoid the wait but didn't miss the wind. The hostess said that the wait would be an hour. So me and a friends just explored the north beach area. We probably stopped by 4 other places before we came back. After a full hour we. Came back and they said it was going to be another 20 minutes. After an hour and a half of waiting we saw an empty table and since we were at the top of the list we asked if we could sit there. They were in area of the free table. After being seated we waited 45 minutes to even order. The prices of oysters is now $2 and not 1.50. After we finally placed our order it took them another 30 minutes between our oysters and our entree. It seemed like there was only one person running an extremely busy night. Honestly the oysters were good but the entree itself wasn't anything to write home about. I got the risotto and it was over all fine. We sat down at 9:30 and we left at closing. The other tables that sat down after us left before we did. The service was so slow and the food was so average.

4/5 by Holly M. on 03/18/2022

The cioppino was damn delicious! It is full of crab, mussels, shrimp, squid, baby octopuses, scallops, and a whitefish of some sort (we think). The crusty bread was perfect for sopping up the rich tomatoey broth. It's a huge bowl and even though there were three of us, we couldn't finish it. We also had the prawn cocktail and the cocktail sauce actually had a nice horseradish kick to it. We sat inside for lunch on a Sunday and it was bustling! It's pretty cramped but it's fun to watch the kitchen staff do their work.

Have loved this special seafood spot since our first visit

5/5 by Suzanne G. on 03/17/2022

Have loved this special seafood spot since our first visit many years ago. Lots of locals -- always a good sign -- including one gentleman we met on our last visit, in late 2019, who told me he eats lunch at Sotto Mare most days, usually the Crab Louie salad. On this visit, I followed his lead with the Crab Louie. So glad I did -- the perfect combination of sweet crabmeat & crisp iceberg with a tangy dressing. Supposedly this recipe was invented by a chef at the iconic St. Francis Hotel in the early 20th century, but Sotto Mare has perfected it. Husband loved his grilled branzino with veggies, tonight a combo of carrots, haricots verts, and parsnips. The bread at Sotto is another highlight. Best Italian loaves in the city -- whether we've had lunch or dinner here, I am guessing the bread is delivered ahead of each service -- it's that fresh. Owner (manager?) always on the premises, and very personable. Waitstaff deftly handled our meal at one of the outdoor two-tops. Pre-COVID, we enjoyed the lively bar (thanks to which we met the regular Crab Louie connoisseur), but nice to have al fresco option now.

5/5 by Aditi R. on 03/16/2022

Finger Lickin Good! Wow this was the freshest seafood I have ever had. Nothing tasted fishy. My mom who is originally from the west coast of India gave it an 11/10 and called it the freshest seafood she has had since coming to US! A place must be good if they give you a whole paper towel roll and bibs :) By the end of the meal, expect to have a full stomach with a table filled with paper towel and shells everywhere. The food was spectacular and was worth the wait. I placed reservation as soon as they opened same day for 8pm and got the table at 8:20. But the wait was definitely worth all that amazing food. You must get these dishes if you go here they were so flavorful! THE WAIT IS WORTH IT TRUST ME

5/5 by Lynette K. on 03/16/2022

Made a reservation in advanced by phone and we were seated immediately. The interior is a bit cramped but there is plenty of outdoor seating. Prices are a bit high but really worth it. The oysters (EAST COAST!) were so sweet we ordered another round. For the main we got the ciopinno, linguine with seafood (white cream sauce) and risotto. All were amazing. Like the first bite was unbelievable. I'm still so full 18 hours after the meal. I guess the food was a bit heavy (?) or maybe it's because it was a lot of seafood. The only down would be the complimentary bread but who cares if the food you pay for is worth it! Also be patient because the servers are really busy and it's hectic for them too! No dessert but plenty of places nearby within walking distance.

2/5 by dutchy s. on 03/13/2022

Gave benefit of the doubt too many times. After a standard wait during a busy sat night dinner service, we were seated. We ordered two hot whole crab plates.Two plates were served quickly, but ice cold. The sauce if that's what you'd call it was also clumpy and cold.Shredded lettuce used as a layer between the plate and the crab was floating in this strange water /oil puddle... Literally looks like dropping oil in a plate of water, decorated with drowning shredded lettuce.Now for the crab. Two plates of what appeared To be less than two whole crabs were served in inequal portions.One plate had what appeared 1 1/3 crab on it, the other with 2/3. Crab was not well seasoned, and in addition to being cold, had the taste and texture of being frozen, despite the lovely fresh crab signs everywhere.For the price a complete let down and failure.

1/5 by Joey C. on 03/11/2022

This review is solely for the customer experience, I did not taste the food. Called for a reservation at 8:00 pm on a Friday night. I arrived at 7:50 and there were a few people behind me. I reminded the manager's wife several times that I was still waiting for a table as she gave the people behind me a table, probably because they were more adamant than I. After about 30 minutes, I asked the manager's wife how long it would take to get a table and she said 10 minutes, however, it didn't happen. So, I told the manager's wife that I was going to leave unless I was given a table but she was not able to give me an answer as to when we would be seated after 45 minutes. We ended up leaving and going to the nearby restaurant California Fish Market and got seated right away. The service was much better, the wine selection was delicious and the food was amazing.

Hands down the seafood dishes were amazing!! My Italian friend introduced us to this place. Perfect weather in San Francisco for outdoor dining. We went during the week and we were able to find parking pretty fast given the area is always busy. Inside the restaurant is pretty vintage looking but we decided to dine outside were they have made some booths in front of the restaurant. Not cute but just basic seating which I believe they did during the whole Covid-19 shutdown. However, food is amazing. We ordered their branzino grilled fish with sautéed vegetables,grilled petrale sole fish with garlic sauce, oysters on half shell, bread, and crab Louie salad. I ordered the branzino which was a special that day- again amazingly delicious my taste buds danced!!

5/5 by Ronald E. on 03/08/2022

And I'm going to tell you why. My experience at Sotto Mare was a 5 star experience. As soon as me and my date arrived around 3:30 , we noticed the place is small and already noisy due to the amount of people enjoying themselves. Me and my date were seated right away inside at the bar. Right as we sat down delicious bread was served to hold the hunger until food arrived. Later we got the menu and asked what we would like to drink. I got the ice tea unsweetened and my date had peroni beer(a smooth light beer, pretty damn good). The food wait was just long enough for me to wonder where the food was and at that moment it arrived. I order the famous Cioppino bowl my date had the lobster ravioli. Could not have asked for happier taste buds. It was outta this world. Definitely will be going back. Total meal set me back $90 not bad. Cause it was forsue worth it. The nicest people to ever serve food work here. The only things to give a heads up on, its extremely crowded inside, and they didn't have dessert. But I'm not a complainer. They exceed my expectations

4/5 by Christine R. on 03/05/2022

OH MY CODAnother one of those kitschy places in North Beach you check off the bucket list. IMHO, growing up in SF, I don't frequent North Beach for cioppino. There's a myriad of restsurants in SF. I used to get my cioppino fix on at Cioppino's, then again Fisherman's Wharf is another tourist trap. I'm always down for friends who want to try, and out-of-towners who must go to North Beach. It's a small tight space at the bar, many of these restaurants are grandfathered in, so they're not super big with added on floors or ADA compliant. Parking is difficult in this neighborhood. Gets busy, service is attentive, and corkage fee is decent. Overall, their cioppino is ai-ight.I came, I dined, I Yelped. Cheers & see you on Yelp (YELP)!

I was super excited to try this place, but wasn't in the mood for cioppino so we got Pasta/Calamari. We came on a Thursday around 5:30 and JUST beat the line; the wait became super long around 6-6:30. Honestly, the food didn't blow my mind. The Half Crab Diavolo was bland and oily with barely much pasta, and the Calamari Pomodoro was good but not great. Love free bread but it was just normal. The vibes were great though, bustling and warm! Service was also good. Maybe next time trying their signature dish would be better?

We visited on a busy Friday night after being tipped off about the restaurant the day before by a local bartender.

There was an hour wait for a table, which he had warned us about, so we put our names down and grabbed a drink nearby while we waited.

It was packed inside and we were seated at the counter - the perfect spot to watch the chefs at work! The food coming out looked fantastic and smelled incredible.

We were not disappointed. We had starters of smoked salmon and crab, and mains of lobster ravioli and salmon pasta. All absolutely delicious and generous portions.

Worth the wait - would return and would highly recommend for seafood lovers.

A lot of delicious food! They were very nice and definitely knew what they were doing. Lots of seafood choices with an Italian twist. Would go back! Felt very North Beach neighborhood.

The best cioppino

4/5 by LHS329 on 02/09/2022

We went back for another cioppino meal here. It is my husband's favorite. It did not disappoint. It would easily feed two people. My husband doesn't usually finish the pasta in the serving. It has all of the seafood in it; crabs, clams, scallops, fish, mussels, shrimp, squid. I had the seafood risotto which was also delicious. It had scallops, squid, mussels, and clams. It comes with their wonderful bread. And, we had the house red. My only complaint was the lax covid enforcement. They didn't look at our vaccination card. The tables are not socially distanced and the employees were not good about masks. You have to make reservations to eat outdoors., which I would strongly suggest.

3/5 by elawson on 01/11/2022

A friend recommended this place and we hiked (it felt like it was completely vertical!) from docks to try it. Luckily, they had a space for us. My whole family likes seafood so we had no problems ordering. My kids said their food was ok but nothing to shout about. My husband liked his crab diablo. My mom and I split a shrimp louis salad and it was literally unseasoned shrimp on a bed of shredded lettuce. I've had Shrimp Louis salads at many other places...some give you hard-boiled eggs. Usually a cucumber or two. Tomato, asparagus. It can vary. This was the blandest, saddest salad I have ever seen. Plain shrimp with a garnish. Now, it was a LOT of shrimp...but nothing else.
The prices are very decent. Our waitress was great. But the blandness of the salad and the pasta dishes was disappointing.

Go With the Ciopino

5/5 by Beth M on 12/01/2021

We celebrated the first night of our 50th anniversary trip at Sotto Made, drawn in by their rating and drooling for the ciopino. In the center of North Beach, it's a quintessential Italian eatery, tight, loud, welcoming, with an enticing aroma of bread, sauce and wine. We were seated immediately at the bar where we could watch the kitchen action. The menu had lots that would have been great but we were after the ciopino, a steaming tureen of perfectly seasoned flavor contains dungeness crab, mussels, clams, bay scallops, shrimp, calamari and penne pasta. It exceeded expectations and was surely among our top 5 lifetime meals. The warm bread was as it should be and helped to sop up the last drops of sauce. The Sotto Mare bibs saved our shirts. Service made the experience fun and a manager delivered complimentary flutes of prosceco for us to celebrate each other. For rich seafood and authentic Italian ambiance, this is the place.

What Fun!

5/5 by TennisgalGreenBay_WI on 11/27/2021

Covid rules were very much enforced. We came here from recommendation from our hotel. It was a Saturday night and we did need to wait a bit outside. But the two of us got a seat at the counter and got to watch the kitchen do their thing. Service was fast, and the food was great and large portions. Too much. Shouldn't have eaten the bread. It definately is a high energy place and I wouldn't come here on a romantic date. But we enjoyed the whole scene.

Nice Place

4/5 by NewEngland1122 on 11/23/2021

Small place, but the food was excellent, especially the sea bass dish. Portions and prices were decent. Our waitress was not very good - kept us waiting a lot and not personable at all. Unfortunately the area the restaurant is in has a lot of homeless people and we saw 2 instances were homeless people were harassing people in the street. The police had to be called in one instance it was so bad.

Fantastic Value perfectly cooked seafood

4/5 by Julieanne H on 11/18/2021

Super great deal on nicely prepared seafood. The sauce is kind of like creativity but are a solid for appealing to the masses. I can't stress how much I appreciate the care that goes into not over cooking the seafood or vegetables. This is also one of the best deals you can get around town. The sea scallops are huge perfectly prepared and you get a whole plate of them with vegetables for $24 unheard of in the city! Cioppino is insane Filled with seafood and a great bye! The oysters are kind of basic and the small ones are super small but the price is right for the larger ones for sure! Beer and wine are inexpensive. The staff hustles like nobody's business. I love coming here and am a regular.

Appointment Trader
😍 5/5 Review by AcceptableParcel20 (03/24/2022 9:35 am)

Wow! First time using this website/app. It was almost hard to believe the quality of customer service I received as soon as I posted my offer. A private chat forum with me and the person helping me find the best option. Constant communication and a wonderful experience using Appointment Trader. I'm surprised it took me this long to find AT but this will now be my GO TO for hard to get restaurant reservations. It was like having my own private concierge.

Miami Beach Hot Spot Success!
😍 5/5 Review by CosmicLinen30 (02/24/2022 11:59 am)

My first experience using AT was awesome and the AT support saved the day! When my booking transfer initiated two days earlier but didn't complete by the day of the reservation, AT was able to expedite the transfer and confirm a table at Call Me Gaby in Miami Beach. Boss confirmed an excellent experience when he arrived and no issues to report. Thanks, AT! I will definitely be back and thank you very much for your prompt assistance!

Made our trip to NYC
😍 5/5 Review by CloseFiction30 (11/10/2021 8:40 am)

There was one restaurant we really wanted to visit in NYC and AppointmentTrader made that possible. Then when we had issues with the reservation transfer they were so quick to respond and fix the problem. We’ll definitely be using this again in the future.

Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
Question by FluffyStar64 (07/09/2021 5:10 pm)

Best AnswerIt can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!

Working on your bid?
Question by DemurePain59 (10/01/2021 1:24 pm)

Best AnswerYour bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.

Process after bid is accepted.
Question by EvocativeFold67 (09/17/2021 8:11 pm)

Best AnswerHey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.

Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Question by ColorfulRod45 (07/13/2021 3:55 pm)

Best AnswerMostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.

What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Question by FluffyStar64 (07/08/2021 5:55 pm)

Best AnswerHey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
