We sat at the table near the big open window. Best of both worlds between sitting indoors or outdoors. Staff is much friendlier and more helpful than the restaurant next door. We did family style, Cioppino, Scallops, Lobster stuffed Ravioli. Every dish was excellent. May have replaced Sotto Mare as my new NB Seafood Restaurant.

It was great to have dinner again in N Beach. Hadn’t been in since pre COVID. It was bustling on a Thursday evening. CFM restaurant was perfect. The oysters were fresh. The calamari frites were delicious. We shared a large ceasar salad. We’ll be back soon.

Excellent seafood pasta dishes with pasta cooked al dente. Grilled calamari appetizer was delicious. Attentive service. Good value. Not too noisy when sitting inside. Nautical decor, not cheesy or overdone. Mostly tourists due to being in North Beach but we are locals. My only gripe was that the tiramisu was served with fruit on top and drizzled with caramel. That was unnecessary. Other than that, would go again.

The staff was pleasant and attentive. The Grigliata(Grilled)Seafood and Cioppino was amazing…with extra broth to take home and add to pasta. It was hard to tell the ravioli had lobster but it was fresh, great texture and prawns were perfect. The Mocha had a perfect flavor and wasn’t too sweet. Will definitely go back

We always love coming here. The whole fish is our favorite dish, along with the granchio. We get a bottle of wine to enjoy during the meal and we are both very happy. Our last visit here was on a super busy night and service was slow, but it was always with a smile and an apology. We understand that you are busy because you are so good! We will continue coming here as often as we can.

Not busy at 4:00, though service seemed rushed. Cioppino broth had good flavor, but not much other than crab, which tastes fresh. After sharing the shrimp salad and the cioppino we told our server we had room for and wanted dessert. He smiled and said of course and promptly brought us our check. I looked online at the menu and realized that although I saw pictures of dessert on OT, they apparently don't offer it? What restaurant doesn't offer dessert? We're in North Beach. Not even a tiramisu? Decent food, but underwhelming meal, to say the least. Very disappointing.

We had reserved an outdoors table. But the restaurant tried to seat us at a table inside the restaurant. Only by insisting on an outdoors table from which diners were just leaving did we get the table that we had reserved.

Wonderful work team lunch. Seven of us came to celebrate our team's work for a special lunch. The staff was delightful, the music was good, the place was charming. Most importantly, the food was delicious. We ordered all across the menu -- soup, salad, pasta, fish-of-the-day, risotto, and fish & chips. Everyone was happy with their meal. It felt like a real get-away!

We've been here a lot, and this wasn't one of my favorite times. We reserved an outside table at 8pm on a Mon. night, and were told there'd be a 20 min. wait. We opted for inside, because we were hungry, and the inside doesn't have the same energy as outside. The food is always good, but part of the meal is the ambiance, and the inside looked like they were shutting down soon. Quiet and empty.

I've typically had positive experiences here, but my last visit was bizarre. The host was nowhere to be found when we arrived (on time). After waiting several minutes, we flagged someone down and asked what was happening with our table. Long story short, he was being coy and telling us to be patient. When I dug into the problem, I discovered they had somehow screwed up all their reservations that evening. They were over 30 minutes behind in seating earlier reservations. We left and ate elsewhere.

This is a go-to whenever we are in North Beach. We’ve had many of the fish/seafood pastas and all are excellent - not too heavy. The Branzini is perfectly cooked - tender inside and crispy outside. Good oyster selection at a very reasonable price, vegetable side dishes are tasty, bread (surprisingly) fresh. Also good, reasonable wine selection. We usually clean our plates!

Had the whole fish of the day-red snapper. It was cooked beautifully. Service was a bit spotty. Not unusual these days of understaffing, however that did not seem to be the hang up, plenty of bodies at work.
