We had the butter lettuce salad and shrimp & grits and found the food quality to be excellent. The cocktails were also excellent (I had a very well balanced Mezcal cocktail) and the servers were super friendly and really hustling to try to keep everyone happy as the place filled up. Great view of the marina from every table.

I was really pleased with Marina Seafood Dockside Patio. We came there on Saturday night for dinner and had a reservation. We ordered mussels in cream sauce, fish and chips and cioppino. Everything was very delicious. Stuff was very nice and even the owner came by bringing us food!
It is a patio, so it feels little bit like you are outside, but thanks to the heaters I didn’t feel cold. We were little disappointed to miss the live band, we were told they played in the afternoon.
The overall experience was really good, I will come back next time with a larger group and during the day time to get a nice view of Marina and listen to the band!

My parents and I checked out Marina Seafood for their soft opening last week. The ambiance was inviting from the moment we walked into the patio, and we were seated with a view of the harbor.
We shared a few dishes family style – the kampachi crudo, pappardelle, tempura shishito peppers, cioppino, dockside burger and furikake fries. I ordered a blueberry lemongrass mocktail as well, a refreshing drink that harmonized with the diverse flavors on the table.
My absolute favorite and a must-get is the tempura-battered shishito peppers, which comes with a yummy gochujang mayo sauce. The kampachi crudo came in at a close second – it was a beautifully plated masterpiece of freshness with vibrant flavors. I learned from our server that the pappardelle pasta itself is house-made! The pasta was perfectly cooked, and the combo of mussels and shrimp with the sauce transported us to seafood heaven. The dockside burger is also noteworthy, with a bacon onion marmalade sauce that made it so unique.
What truly set this dining experience apart though was the impeccable service. Our server Jill was attentive and hospitable, and made our evening memorable with her warm demeanor and helpful suggestions. When she brought back my boxed leftovers, she even suggested that I warm it back up in the oven at 350 degrees for several minutes and that it’d taste just as good that way. This is something I hadn’t experienced before at a restaurant – I was so pleasantly surprised. She made me feel like a guest in her own home!
If you’re in Berkeley and crave a seafood experience that goes beyond the ordinary, this restaurant is a must-visit. The culinary expertise, stunning views, and exceptional service make it a true gem by the marina.

What an awesome experience!
The seafood was fresh and fantastic!
The service was on point!
We devoured the very savory cioppino, the seafood fettuccine was amazing, the shishito tempura was crispy and delectable, and the ahi tuna tartar was divine!
We will most certainly be back!
Oh what a night!!

This place is a vibe for sure, but the food wasn’t that good. I ordered the fish and chips and shrimp and grits. The fish lacked salt and the batter was unappetizing (it was thin and greasy). The shrimp and grits plate was initially presented as shrimp and risotto. When the issue was corrected, I noticed the shrimp was overcooked and the sauce/gravy reminded me of gumbo. To be honest, it didn’t feel fresh. Considering the price of the items, I was a little disappointed. If return, I will order a salad.
The service was okay.

WINNER!!! Beautiful setting, friendly servers, creative chef, and delicious food!
The Beet Salad was fresh and unique, made even better by the Blueberry Spritz, Furikake Fries with gochujang mayo appetizer, super warm heaters, light Bay breeze, large open windows/patio, and beautiful Waterfront views.
I loved everything about Marina Seafood Dockside Patio. The Beet Salad, Blueberry Mocktail, and Furikake Fries with gochujang mayo are stars. A few notes:
(1) Staff are friendly, engaging, genuinely care, and we even got a visit from the manager. They should be super proud – and its only their second day!
(2) Setting: Gorgeous Waterfront setting, spectacular views, adjacent to the Berkeley harbor and walkable pedestrian pathway around the Waterfront.
(3) Ambiance: warm and bright, simple/hip design, skylights, views, cozy intimate indoors. Great music. Fresh, current.
(4) Beet Salad: Yum! perfect pairing of tangy citrus/vinaigrette with creamy goat cheese, slightly sweet beets, and crunchy pistachios. Will have it again for sure.
(5) Blueberry Soda Mocktail. Also Yum! With a sprig of rosemary on top, unique flavor profile, and locally sourced soda from Berkeley’s own Tractor, not Coke or PepsiCo.
(6) The gochujang mayo Kennebec Fries were incredible. Salty, sweet, a tad spicy, and very unique.
Congratulations on opening, Marina Seafood! I can’t wait to come back to try the rest of the menu.

Did lunch here with friends Tuesday. Had fish n chips. Chips not memorable, but fish was the best I have ever had. Generous portion of fresh, tender, juicy ling cod caught the day before. This was our second time here. The first time, we shared a whole fish. Super.
