What User likes about Shady Island Seafood Grill:
The seafood is incredibly fresh. I highly recommend ordering the fishermen’s pot; the butter sauce is fantastic! I just wish there was more toast to go with it. The location is perfect, right at the pier in Fisherman’s Wharf, making it easily accessible and surrounded by wonderful restaurants. The service was excellent, and the staff were friendly and attentive! View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Shady Island Seafood Grill:
It seems that getting good fish and chips these days is quite a challenge, even at a place that used to be reliable for them. The portion sizes were decent, but the quality was surprisingly poor. I couldn't help but suspect that the fish was frozen and pre-battered, similar to what's found in a Hyliner package. The taste was off as well, reminiscent of fish that had been in the freezer for too long. View all feedback.

Backhand Chowder. The Mama's Chowder is so yummy! Make sure to grab a Backhand of God stout with it!
