Want to try the best egg nog in the Bay Area? No visit to historic Fisherman’s wharf is complete without a visit to Scoma’s for a seafood feast. 🦀 But for a limited time and an extra special holiday cheer, they make and bottle their own eggnog! 🥚 Aged to perfection and fortified to intoxication and loaded of spice, take a bottle home to add to warm up those winter nights! ❄️ Have you had their 1 year aged eggnog? They prepare it every year for the next year! 😯 #sfeats #sffoodie #sfrestaurants #foodiegram #sanfranciscofood #sffoodblogger #sffoodie #sffoodies #sanfranciscofood #sanfranciscorestaurants #bayareafoodie #bayareafood #bayareafoodies #bayarearestaurants

📍Scoma’s Restaurant (San Francisco) This iconic restaurant has been here since 1965 with a waterfront view, I love the interior with the vintage brown look😍 It’s a great spot for casual or date nights! Not to mention they serve some of the freshest sustainable seafood and make some good hand crafted cocktails!🦞🦀🥃 Service is wonderful too and for the food, I got to try: 🦪 Oysters a la Scoma ($26) - it has shallots, asiago cheese, spinach, paprika, and a brandy garlic aioli! SO GOOD I love how the oysters are plump and juicy. This is a perfect appetizer to get 🍟 Truffle & Parmesan Fries ($17) - can’t go wrong here, I’m a sucker for truffle fries 🦀 Roasted Dungeness Crab ($72) - when it’s crab season and if you love crab, get this 🍝 Pasta Diplomatica ($49) -scallops, shrimp, clams, and mushrooms in a cream sauce! Super fresh seafood, one of my favorite pastas!! And you have to end with their tiramisu cake and latte!🍰🍫☕️😋 • • • • • #scomas #scomasrestaurant #seafood #seafooddining #sanfranciscofood #sffoodblogger #sffoodguide #sfeats #wheretoeatsf #sfbayarea #sffood #sffoodieheaven #bayareaeats #sfdatenight

@scomassf is a fantastic waterfront restaurant in San Francisco. I was so excited to return here after visiting Scoma’s a few years ago with my family. This time I went with my friends and I am happy to say the food was as fantastic as I remember. The crabcakes are delicious, but the real highlight was the New England clam chowder. It has always been one of my favorite soups, so I was excited to try it here. With some pepper on it, it just tasted so yummy and fresh. Our server was very nice and I learned a lot about different types of seafood at Scoma’s from him.
