Pelly's restaurant offers a diverse seafood menu that leaves diners with mixed reviews. While some rave about the freshness of their fish tacos and delightful outdoor atmosphere, others express disappointment with service and dish quality. Guests have enjoyed standout options like cioppino and fish and chips, but the New England clam chowder received criticism for its odd texture and lack of flavor. Additionally, patrons noted that the high prices do not always align with the food experience. Despite some positive encounters, the inconsistency in meal preparation and overall service has led to a lack of enthusiasm for repeat visits.

What User dislikes about Pelly's Fish Market Cafe:
Used to be a loyal customer. Staff is repeatedly not adhering to current California mask mandate. I will not return until management enforces the mask mandate for their staff. Sorry Sam’s widow, you need to get tough on your staff. You ask your customers to do it, you need to ask your staff to do it too. View all feedback.
I have dined at this restaurant about six times or more. I always hope for a good meal, but unfortunately it never delivers. I typically order the fish sandwich while my wife orders the fish plate. The sandwich is consistently dry and the bread tastes stale. While the prices are lower than at Kings, the quality of the food just doesn't compare. After giving them seven chances, I have decided to stop dining here.
Pelly's is fantastic! My friends from Santa Barbara recently relocated to San Diego and our search for delicious seafood led us to Pelly's. The dishes are simply prepared yet taste incredibly fresh. The atmosphere and service are both excellent, making it an ideal spot for gatherings with friends.
I enjoyed the halibut sandwich and crab cakes very much. The sandwich was hearty and the fish was so fresh. The tartar sauce is excellent. They should bottle it! The crab cakes were delicious with a generous amount of crab and just the right amount of seasoning.
Ordering is at the counter and they bring your food to your table. Fresh and delicious!
