Scott's Seafood San Jose

Cioppino

The kitchen's Bay Area calling card — a tomato-wine broth loaded with Dungeness crab, clams, shrimp, and fish that concentrates into something genuinely satisfying by the time it reaches the table

Dungeness Crab

Served whole or in preparation depending on season — the restaurant's most celebrated protein when the Bay Area harvest is running, sweet and yielding with simple drawn butter

Clam Chowder

A thick, cream-forward New England-style chowder that regulars often start with — generous with clams and a reliable opener on cold evenings

Oysters on the Half Shell

Sourced from West Coast beds, served simply on ice — fresh and briny, best ordered at the bar with a glass of something crisp

Fresh Fish of the Day

The kitchen's most reliable daily offering — preparations rotate but lean toward grilled or pan-seared with straightforward accompaniments that let the protein speak
