Salito's Crab House & Prime Rib

I’m from the UK so naturally I wanted to try the “Fish and Chips” … wasn’t what I expected at all… but certainly not disappointed. White fish in a beautifully light crispy crumb batter and the “chips” were next level. New potatoes deep fried with sesame seeds, so crispy yet fluffy inside like roast potatoes. Very impressed. Thanks

What more to ask for? Ocean front view! Great service! And excellent Fish and Chips. I have been on a kick lately trying all different restaurant's versions of Fish and Chips and by far this place has my now all time favorite. The batter they use is EXCELLENT. The value was great. It was plentiful. And it came with small seasoned potatoes rather than traditional "chips" (French fries). I have been here before a few years ago, but this time I was very impressed. My friend got the crab sandwich and it didn't look appealing nor did it come with a side so not worth the money but I recommend the fish and chips. You will not be disappointed.

Ordered the super combo grilled seafood platter which was served on a hot plate and a giant slab of prime rib which was shared with 4 adults and 1 child which was a good portion. Added a salad and a cheese pasta which was a great side pairing. Food was tasty although it took some to be seated on Christmas Day without reservations. They were using a new "ordering" system that took them a long time to place orders.

Bubbling delicious! The signature Dunguness Crab sauce was bubbling on the cast iron plate as my crab arrived. This is equal parts extremely messy and unbelievably delicious. Excellent service. A wonderful view of Stand Up Paddle Boarders cutting across the serene waters with yachts docked as far as I could see. Plentiful parking. Oh and my waiter was courteous, professional and knowledgeable. Highly recommend. Pro Tip: stay on the city roads and take the back route out on your way to Golden Gatr Bridge for awesome SF views and a real taste of the character of this area.

This is a phenomenal place to dine and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere by the water. The food was great, and the service was very fast. Our group sampled several items, and everyone was impressed. The Crab enchiladas were wonderful, shrimp and chips were amazing (those chips were extra special), calamari, and two pasta dishes. Not a bite went to waste!!!

Definitely recommend you try the spot and enjoy yourself!

Amazing spot for crabs with stunning waterfront views.

We ordered the whole Dungeness crab and it was cooked and seasoned perfectly! The lemon butter sauce was on-point ❤.

I recommend ordering the bread to soak up all the delish sauces 🤤

A perfect choice for romantic and/or family dinners ❤ simply great atmosphere, super kind and quick service and perfect seafood lovers special dishes. Even kids' menu was very special and delicious.. highly recommended for a unique experience with a great view of San Francisco

Really good prime rib. The potatoes on the side were good, too. Shrimp were a little over cooked on the iron pan, but it could’ve been that I waited too long before trying.

We celebrated our 27th
anniversary. We started with the bread and crab chowder. Love these. The salads are great. Of course we had to have crab. Then we finished with the vanilla salted caramel crunch cake.🥰

We loved this place! The medium Shrimp & Mussels was perfect for a meal for one. The dipping sauce was so die for! The homemade bread was also delicious and was perfect to soak up the extra sauce with. The chicken Milanese was cooked perfectly! Our cocktails were also delicious. Most of the restaurant is outside and it is right on the water. I highly recommend Salito’s!

Took the family on a day trip to Sausalito, CA, and stopped at Salito's place for N early dinner. The food was great, the scenery was perfect. I saw a lot of food dishes that I want to try on our next visit.. a must try spot !!!

We found this place by chance and it was a great find! It's right on the water and the decor is super cute! So many great crab dishes to choose from and some awesome cocktails as well. The real standout was the bread! It's worth paying extra for, they bake it fresh in a pot and bring it to you with butter. Best I've had in a restaurant.

Totally worth it it, I recommend this place. Now to the details, the enchiladas were not the best but now I can tell I have had crab enchiladas and for that the have earned my respect. From my perspective I don’t think this is the best combination but they managed to make enchiladas and they were good, the salsa was good and the portion was fulfilling. I had a side of fried calamari that was crunchy and great. I saw other meals and they all look amazing. If I have the opportunity to come back I’ll try something more popular but this time I went for the unconventional. The restaurant itself is really pretty; clean and the view is just beautiful. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

10/10 - if you’re considering this restaurant, just go. The view is INCREDIBLE and cannot be found anywhere else. The food was also super fresh and tasty. Can’t recommend more, do it!

Great experience here. View of the see is amazing. The supercombo is the best! We can enjoy all of seafood including crab, mussel, and shrimp.

Went on Christmas day because it was one of the few places that were open. Prompt service and food that is cooked to perfection, along with a very nice view of the marina. What more could I ask for?

We were seated on the patio, which offered a lovely view of the water. The seafood was fresh and flavorful. We particularly enjoyed the Dungeness crab (the one in our photo is the 3lb Lotsa Crabs with garlic butter). The patio is dog-friendly and we spotted several cute pups. Ample parking in front of the restaurant but fill up quickly during peak hours.

Really nice view and food was good. We were a relatively large group but they were able to seat us without reservations on a weekend.

Brought here on a surprise trip by a friend, I passed this place by for years, without knowing what was going on inside.
What is going on inside:

Absolutely gorgeous view of the Tiburon harbor Bay if that's what it is called and Sausalito on the water, and a beautiful outdoor setting with some highly effective space heaters, with both indoor and outdoor areas.

I was reminded of the Dead Fish Restaurant in Crockett, which is a little funkier and more old world than this place, with each of them having their own forte and special charm.

I opened up my night as usual with a Bloody Mary, and understand, a decent Bloody Mary, is essential to seafood dining for me. On a 1 to 10 I would give the Bloody Mary a 6 and 1/2 bordering on seven, since it tasted made from a fresh mix, and was a little tangier than it was salty which is something I appreciate.

Our opening course was the crab chowder in a bread bowl, reminiscent of the clam chowder in a sourdough bowl served in more than one spot in fisherman's wharf in San Francisco.
Sadly, this crab chowder did not impress, didn't have any tang or deep flavor to it, and was kind of watery. The bread also was lacking and that it wasn't sourdough and didn't have any particular qualities.

The shrimp platter however more than made up for any misgivings I might have had, with delicious perfectly cooked shrimp in the shell on an iron platter, with a perfect amount of seasoning and garlic, and a small dipping bowl of butter, Parmesan, lemon zest, and salt. It was actually better than the shrimp I had at the Dead Fish, but that might have been due to the fact that I don't particularly like herbs on baked or fried food, and I think that the Dead Fish, had Rosemary or thyme or something like that on it.

Our next course was the seafood cioppino pasta, with perfectly cooked freshly made pasta, in a sauce that had a perfect balance of acidity, unctuous depth, and fresh flavors.

For dessert we ordered both the salted caramel and cheesecake, and the chocolate temptation, which are both first rate desserts.

The staff was super friendly and on top of it, and I can't wait to come back to this place for more.
Thank you Joe, for bringing me here!

Visited here with my family in March. The atmosphere and view of the bay is incredible. The seafood is fresh and flavorful. Our server was very knowledgeable of the selections. Definitely a wonderful stop if you are in Sausalito.
