Point Loma Seafoods

Overview

Point Loma Seafoods is a waterfront fish market and casual restaurant on the docks of San Diego Bay. Operating since 1963, it serves some of the freshest seafood in the city — bought and prepared steps from the fishing boats.

Highlights

• Fresh Fish Market: Daily catches displayed on ice — whatever the fleet brought in that morning.
• Dockside Seating: Outdoor picnic tables overlooking the bay and Point Loma sportfishing fleet.
• Fish Tacos: Widely regarded as serving some of the best fish tacos in San Diego.

History

Founded in 1963 by the Yokoyama family, Point Loma Seafoods has served the fishing community and tourists from the same waterfront location for over 60 years. Its location at the sportfishing docks guarantees extraordinary freshness.

Visitor Tips

• Order at the counter and eat outside on the dock for the full experience.
• Lunchtime lines are long but move quickly — arrive by 11 AM to beat the rush.
• Duration: 20–40 minutes.
