The food is just as good as the view! The salmon is delicious!

Best in Bay 12/2/2002

A group of friends traveling from S. Cal to N. Cal eating our way through the ""dining capitols of the world"" were pleasantly surprised by how great this restaurant is. Pros: Food, Fish, Seafood Cons: location more

No Good 11/4/2002

Been here a few times both in small and large parties. Every time service is terrible, very terrible. Food is way overpriced for what you get. Avoid actually eating here, just go for the view and have a drink at the bar instead. Pros: View, Parking, Decor Cons: Service, food, value more

New Foods 11/4/2002

Been there twice before and this time was a 10!!! Some new foods that were perfect and comfy. Food and service was unbelievable. I think Jeremy was our server and I'd ask for him again. Pros: Jeremy, Food, Lamb mix more

WOW 11/4/2002

Now we've achieved nirvana. We came here because some fiends were wowed, so were we. My wife is a vegetarian and not only do they have vegetarian items, they also have vegan. WOW!!! The food, servce and wines were great. Food expensive and worth it, the wines were cheaper than any restaurant I know. Pros: Food, Wine prices, View Cons: Drive more

Beautiful View 10/31/2002

I had lunch with a group of 8. The view of the bay is amazing and the service was excellent. I imagine it would be perfect for a romantic dinner at sunset. Pros: Great view, Good service, Good parking Cons: Expensive more

Time to party 10/22/2002

We went to a Cal game last weekend and had a better time eating at Skates than our victory over UCLA. The food was great and those margaritas were incredible. The prime rib and garlic prawns were so good that I want to go back just for them. This place is a must!!! Pros: Food, Prime Rib, GarlicPrawns more

the Bar rocks! 7/26/2002

I have come here several times, and i always find that service at the bar is great. Although it gets pretty packed on the weekends, the bartenders drinks are always quick and they make sure you get your food quick. I had something called a ""East meets West Mojito"" which was great. Also, you can't beat the view! Pros: Great Drinks, Awesome Bar Cons: Pricey, OK Food more

Several trips to this TGI-Fridays-on-the-Bay merit a warning: Of three attempts we had one edible entree and two entrees removed from the bill. We persisted because we're patriotic locals. The removed items included a $40 fresh (frozen) rock lobster tail cold and translucent on one side, overcooked and leeched on the other. A re-fire got no better results. My equally persevering companions got old, cured salmon misrepresented as ""smokey-flavored"" fresh (!) and a leathery prime rib. Don't eat unless it's a group outing for Cobb salad & nachos, the kind of outing that seemed exotic in high school. Pros: Bar, View, Staff Cons: Food, Service, Price more
