Top of the Market - San Mateo

Visited with my boyfriend; they have ample and beautiful outdoor seating facing the water. We got the mussels, red chowder, corn on the cob, oysters, garlic cheesy bread with crab meat, and the hazelnut chocolate mousse. All of it was delicious but the star is absolutely the cheesy garlic bread with crab meat. We almost didn't order it but changed our minds last second! IT'S SO GOOD Y'ALL. If you decide to go make sure you make reservations; it's a painless process through their website and no penalties for cancelling. Service was good, drinks were good. Definitely recommend. Can't wait to go back for more bread haha!

Top of the Market is the upscale kitchen above the Fish Market. The view, food quality, and service is better at a much higher price per dish. We enjoyed the seafood soup although a bit spicy. And the desserts were excellent.

Nice seafood resto. Everything we ordered was delicious. The chowder was amazing!

It was my birthday when we went. Pretty busy and well it took over an hour before our meal came. But did not notice until Manager came to apologize and offer us a gift card discount for our next visit. Very friendly staff and the food was great. I can see why it is a popular place to go. The views are beautiful also.

One of the best restaurants in the area! Had a chowder which was really creamy. Then had a prawn and scallop skewer with roasted rosemary potatoes and roasted vegetables. It was so good, the prawns and scallops were really fresh and nicely cooked. The potatoes were not very hot, which was the weaker part of the meal, but roasted vegetables were good. Reasonably priced and good portions. Had a beautiful view out of the back, great atmosphere and friendly service. I will definitely come back.
