Scott's Seafood - OaklandI have been going to restaurantI have been going to restaurant for a number of years and the best thing about is the people and the view.5/20/2013 12:00:00 AMBirthday Party at Scott'sEight of us enjoyed a 91st birthday luncheon celebration and had a great time. Our server made the occasion fun and special. The food was nicely presented and the ambiance was great. Oakland Scott's is a great destination restaurant.5/16/2013 12:00:00 AMWe were seated outside. Food,We were seated outside. Food, service, view all very good. Somewhat pricey but not outrageous.5/13/2013 12:00:00 AMScott's SeafoodGreat food. Waitress messed up order numerous times, though was genuinely apologetic and handled my unruly attitude well. Nice little soup and salad dinner before we called it quits.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMScott's The Total Package !!!Great Menu, Serivce , Ambience and Waterscape Views...Scotts has it all !!!!5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had dinner on Mother'sWe had dinner on Mother's Day so the place was understandably busy. Even so, we were seated quickly after checking in. We were lucky to get a window table at the opposite end of the bar area so it was quiet enough for our party to chat at normal levels. The wait for our food was long enough that our waiter came to the table a few times to say our order was coming soon. The food was great once we got it though. Overall, it was a positive dining experience despite the holiday crowds.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMMothers Day BrunchAlthough the restaurant was very full, the buffet area was never too crowded and the kept the food replenished continuously. The waitstaff was very friendly - no attitude at all when we aske to move tables to get away from an annoying fan noise. The waiter continuously refilled our Mimosas and OJ. The food was good some things better than others, nothing stood out as fantastic - but it was a brunch buffet after all. It was a little on the expensive side but all in all a very nice experience.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMMother's Day DinnerThe food was delicious and came relatively quickly considering how full the restaurant was on Mother's Day. It is a very large restaurant with a relaxing view of the water. The service was excellent with the servers constantly refilling drinks without prompting. It was a wonderful experience and I would definitely come again.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMScotts is okayI spend a lot of time at Scotts but they need to increase their portion size. Its very expensive for the portions. Cheesecake factory a national chain serves equally good food with larger portions. A place like Scotts should totally out pace a place like the Cheesecake factory.5/1/2013 12:00:00 AMScott's is a reliable fineScott's is a reliable fine dining option. Perfect when you want some non-trendy good seafood, they always deliver. Professional wait staff, good wines, a nice place to celebrate or just grab a quick bite before a show. Can't beat the view.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMI celebrated my 45th birthdayI celebrated my 45th birthday grate place luv having my picture tsken and the raise great touch4/21/2013 12:00:00 AMOur group had a great experienceOur group had a great experience on my birthday; food was wonderful, service was great and view couldn't be beat!4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMDelicious dinners for ourDelicious dinners for our party of four on a perfect Spring evening.4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Place. Highly reccommend.Great food and service as always. We go to Scotts every couple of monthsfor their brunch. Food is always good and hot things are hot, cold things are cold.4/14/2013 12:00:00 AMI had my retirement lunchI had my retirement lunch at Scott's in San Jose in February, and received a Gift Certificate for Scott's restaurant from my boss as a gift. Nowhere did it indicate that it was only valid at the San Jose and Walnut Creek restaurants. After ordering a wonderful dinner, I was told that the Gift Certificate that I planned to use to pay for the dinner, was not valid at the Oakland location! This location is "family owned" and is not a member of the Scott's corporation.
Despite this little "surprise", I will still patronize Scott's restaurant and will recommend it if asked.4/14/2013 12:00:00 AMAIRBORNE RANGERThe perfect place to take your spouse to celebrate a Birthday or any special occasion. Seating with a view of the Bay. The perfect atmosphere and romantic ambiance to set the tone for the evening. The Dinner Menu was fit for a King with mouthwatering appetizers. The food was well prepared and well-seasoned. The Desert Menu was exquisite. While the professional pianist performed solo pieces to set the atmosphere. Scott's Seafood had a Moscato on its wine list to die for.4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways excellentScott's is one of my 'go-to' restaurants for seafood. We had some family here from the midwest who do not get a chance to have it very often. I requested a table with a view and was accommodated nicely. All the food was excellent as usual. Scott's clam chowder is highly recommended. My sister had the seafood salad which was beautifully presented and very tasty. Two people had the seafood saute which is definitely on my list to have next time. We were having such a nice time that we didn't notice that we were practically the last ones in the restaurant as they were getting ready to close even though we had arrived at 7. All around excellent meal and service.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMWent to Oakland because weWent to Oakland because we could not get in at Scott's on the River in Sacramento on Easter Sunday. What a great experience for someone like me who had never been there before. The restaurant was beautifully decorated, parking was not an issue; the staff from the front reception to the bar to the table was attentive and personal. The food was good; I was expecting more variety of seafood for brunch though. We did enjoy the selections and would consider returning for another special occasion.3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMScotts OaklandA return visit yields, as always, a good dining experience. Professional and efficient staff with attentive service.3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMIt was a ery pleasurable BrunchIt was a ery pleasurable Brunch for Easter! It was a wonderful place for the whole family! My grandchildren loved it and we were very happy with the service and the food. I tried to change my reservation from 2 people to 7, but could not do it through Open Table. So, I called Scott's directly and they were able to accomodate me.3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMOverall great experience,Overall great experience, we were celebrating my wife's birthday and Scotts was the highlight of the day. The best lobster ever.3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMLovely mid afternoon lunchWe needed a place that served lunch at 3 pm - not easy to find. Then I remembered Scotts in Oakland. What a beautiful view from our window table. The food was fantastic. Great clam chowder, fresh crab, plank salmon. Yum. Ended with bread pudding bannanas foster. Perfect!
Not cheap, but prices appropriate for location and quality. It is nice that some things never change at Jack London Square.3/25/2013 12:00:00 AMI brought my parents hereI brought my parents here for their Sunday brunch. They absolutely loved it. The jazz trio was wonderfull and added to the nice ambiance. Food was delicious and our view of the water was great. They've made plans to come back again on their next visit to Northern California.3/17/2013 12:00:00 AMAs you would hope, Scott'sAs you would hope, Scott's Seafood had absolutely outstanding seafood. Service was wonderful even on a very busy night.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMWe have been many times andWe have been many times and the food is always great. The ambiance is also. We ate at Scotts in San Francisco in 1976 and have been to Scott's any time we visit San Francisco (which has been often). Love this place.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMOUT-OF-TOWN VISITOR StartingOUT-OF-TOWN VISITOR
Starting from being greeted and attended to when you step in to the waitresses at the bar to the waiter at the table, the service was great making the visit enjoyable.
I enjoyed the Piano player who gave a nice touch to the atmosphere.
The food was excellent, the dessert supreme.
My guests were very pleased with the envirnment and the view and thoroughly enjoyed the dinner.
I was very happy that the noise level was subdued so i could have a conversation with my guests.
I would definitely invite guests to join me at scott's the next time I visit the Bay area.3/15/2013 12:00:00 AMThis was a great place toThis was a great place to go to. Sat at a window seat and watching the sunset during dinner was amazing. Very romantic place to go. Food was really good and the staff is very attentive. I enjoyed the food here. Good place2/15/2013 12:00:00 AMGood meal (high quality food).Good meal (high quality food). We went to brunch with three people and had a great view of the outside area. Perhaps one of the best Irish coffee's I have had in years. The brunch is a good value for the money. Parking is easy. If you come at 10-11 AM on a (normal) Sunday, you should not have an issue with getting a table. I would book a table if you have any doubts. Open Table seems to work OK for us.2/10/2013 12:00:00 AMFamily Reunion Dinner!There were 7 in our group, including a 5 1/2 and a 1 1/2 year old and our waitress was so patient and helpful.... 10 stars for her!!!!! We had a lovely corner table, where the children could get up, as needed. The food was very good and enjoyed by all.1/18/2013 12:00:00 AM
