Horatio's Restaurant at the San Leandro Marina in California offers a diverse menu, tasty food, and outstanding service. There is a very beautiful view of the San Francisco Bay from most of the seats. Banquet rooms are available. There is plenty of parking out front and clean bathrooms. We had a group of 20 for a club dinner and they did a wonderful job. We will be back.

This was our first time eating at Horatio’s and it didn’t disappoint! We have always driven by this place when we go to the marina but never stop in. We went on February 12 for an early Valentines dinner and chose to get their Valentines Special dinner. The special dinner was $130 for two people and included 3 courses. Our waitress Maria was very nice! I loved the atmosphere of the restaurant, they played good music choices and very clean. First Course: The warm bread with garlic butter is delicious and is the perfect shareable size. I had the Pointe Reyes Blue Cheese Salad and the toppings and dressing was amazing! My husband got the Romaine Caesar and it was very good also, I am just a blue cheese fan! Second Course: I got the filet and shrimp, mashed potatoes, and asparagus. My steak was cooked perfectly…very juicy and tender on the inside and char on the outside. I loved that it was not over seasoned or salty… it had such a great flavor I didn’t need to add anything else to it. The shrimp was seasoned nicely, the mashed potatoes tasted perfect and were very creamy, and the asparagus was very tender. My husband got the prime rib and it was delicious. I really enjoyed the creamy horseradish sauce it came with. Third Course: I got the crème brûlée and was so creamy and just delicious, loved the fruit on top! I stole a bite of my husband’s chocolate dessert and it was perfect… very moist and chocolaty! Overall, I highly recommend Horatio’s and give the food a 10/10! Everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly and great portion sizes. We definitely need to come to try more menu items and see the bay in the daytime!

I dont normally write reviews. But people that are complaining about this place are lying! I had the crab and shrimp pasta and it was absolutly perfect! Really rich and creamy and made from scratch by the taste. My dad had the Lobster bisque that i tryed and that was phenominal as well. Deffinantly a place id try if your in the area. I had no complaints. Staff was super friendly and awesome aswell. They also have happy hour from 3-6 with great choices ranging from 6$-13$. 6$ draft beers. Like i said i never write reviews but were coming back again tomorrow night. As my dad and i come to this area once every other week. We found a new spot

Excellent food. Excellent service. Came here with 8 for my father in law's birthday. Everyone was very happy with their food and even though it was packed we didn't have to wait very long for anything. The dining room is huge and open so it got a little loud but it wasn't crazy. I will definitely be back

What a perfect evening!!! Our waiter was attentive, polite and made a milestone birthday super special! The food was well-presented and delicious! We had the warm Brie with macadamia nut crust and seared teriyaki tenderloins as our hors d’oeuvres to start! Then, we had the crab and shrimp fettuccini, clam chowder, and Point Reyes Farmstead Blue Cheese Salad as our entrees! The crème brûlée with the candle on top as the birthday surprise was a nice touch!! Our waiter was so kind to even take perfect photos to capture the birthday moments! What a special evening! The staff were all very polite, friendly, and amiable. The view was impressive! The food was very delicious! The portion sizes were just right! The service was spectacular! The waiter checked on us often and made sure all our needs were attended to. Everyone including the host were extremely courteous. We were very very happy and satisfied with our dining experience and will surely return very soon!

Horatio's is truly fantastic in every way, a destination that, like me, will have you wondering how on earth you had not discovered it earlier. - Outstanding delicious and really big plate servings, with many menu option. - service is excellent with caring very attentive, cheerful staff. - the restaurant is a beautiful design from the past with nautical influences. - location is really fantastic. It's San Leandro by the Bay beside a really beautiful big park and incredibly enjoyable long walking paths by the water. Horatio's is the absolute best restaurant l've enjoyed in every way possible 😋👌👍🫶🤲🤝🙏

So, I chose Horatio's after reviewing them online. I went during their lunch menu hours which ended @ 3:00 p.m. The manager on duty took good care of me and seated me in a booth w/incredible views, my waitress was attentive and knowledgeable, the bartender was excellent (my drink a Rare & Fancy Old Fashioned) was exceptional and smooth, crept up on me in a good way. I ordered the Fisherman's Platter and I wasn't disappointed the shrimp were colossal size, the scallops were large and tender, the crab bites were delicious. I could just barely walk out I was so pleasantly full. Great environment, upscale and cozy. Beautiful patio outside to enjoy your meal with a view of the Marina as well. I highly recommend you treat yourself to a meal here.

One of my most favorite restaurants in San Leandro! Beautiful view and nice staff! Hubby and I go after the Hayward antique fair on Sundays when they open! The calamari is soooooo good! The clam chowder is not really my favorite. But this place is great!

Upon arrival for reservation, we were seated immediately to a quiet setting next to the western facing windows as the sun was setting🌅😎 Appetizer (half shell oysters 😋)came quick as well as drinks.. our main entrees came quick thereafter 😁 and lemme say it was one of those meals meant to savor and make inappropriate noises while consuming 🤣 It was probably the best birthday dinner Ive ever had ... Service was perfect and the complimentary créme brulee and Ice cream put us close to the moon. Well recommended..$$$ well worth it.

I haven’t been here in years. We came for a family Christmas Eve dinner. The inside of this place is just gorgeous and the views of the bay are breathtaking. The atmosphere here is just insane and a more fine dining experience. The Christmas dinner menu is limited you can pick a soup or salad then one entrée and 1 dessert for $60-$65 a person. They start you off with fresh bread with garlic butter onto which was very buttery and fresh. I piked the lobster bisque and my wife got the clam chowder both had good chunks of seafood in it and was very tasty some of the best soups I’ve had. Then I got those prime rib which was very good not as good as the house of prime rib but their horseradish was very strong and I loved it. Then for Dessert we had key lime pie and the cheesecake. Both were amazing, I loved the cheesecake more it had so much flavor for just a plain cheesecake. Overall a wonderful experience I even love those cocktails I got a smoky bourbon drink that they came out to our table and light it on fire and left a smoke cloud on your drink. It was so cool. I’ll most definitely have to come back and try their main menu.

Birthday lunch for my mom. The wait staff was excellent attentive. A waiter was training a new waitress. She was great. He was a little aggressive in his tone, harse with his words. The food was great. Seafood platter and burgers were a hit with the group. The lady that seated us was wonderful. There was another male host who was not as kind as her. He was curt, especially to our group, which included elderly people. If not for the 2 employees who were mentioned as a negative. I would have rated it as 5 stars. This is an iconic restaurant . I will return.

I'll start by saying the service was great. Our server was kind, attentive, and knew a lot about the menu. The food was good, but there were a couple of things we didn't really care for. That, along with the cost of the meal, is why I'm giving 4 stars. We loved everything on the appetizer sampler, and I especially liked the teriyaki seared sirloin. The brie was great as was the clam chowder. The lobster bisque had a bit too much sherry for my taste, but the lobster in it was tender. For my entree I got the 16oz ribeye with shrimp. The steak was excellent, cooked perfectly, juicy and well seasoned. The shrimp though were a bit tough and pretty dry. I'd skip the shrimp next time and maybe just do the garlic butter on top. We shared the lobster mac and cheese, and all of us were underwhelmed. The lobster was overcooked and the cheese sauce was so thin it didn't really stay on the noodles. I wouldn't get that again. We did really enjoy the rigatoni bolgnese. Good sized portion and the sauce was delicious. For dessert we had a creme Brulee which was pretty standard. Nothing special but it was tasty. Overall we had a really good time, and did enjoy our meal. I would definitely come back with a few adjustments to our order.

I took my daughter here for her 21st birthday. The food was good and the atmosphere was even better. One of the best things on the menu was the crab dip, it's absolutely delicious! The Caesar salad was also really good. My daughter said her ribeye was just okay, so that was disappointing considering it was her birthday and the amount is money that I spent. I'd go back for drinks, appetizers and their pork chop for sure!

We were celebrating a special day and decided on Horatio's because we hadn't been in years and it once had a nice view. We were seated immediately and assigned a waiter who introduced him self and took our drink and food orders. That was literally the last time he came to our table. Info Reviews More li From that point forward we never saw our waiter again. A manager came and introduced herself walking around with black gloves she had on in the kitchen I just saw her in on our way in. We had to inquire about our order to the second manager that came over. By that time we had been waiting over thirty minutes for our food. The food finally came and it was just ok. We had the fish and chips platter, pasta with shrimp and crab, hamburger and crab artichoke dip. There was no crab in the artichoke dip. They could be so much better if they hired more wait staff. Our assigned waiter was given a party of 15 people that were seated in another section across from us. Read the reviews? I did and still made the mistake of going.

What happened to this place? Omg. It used to be so special. It wasn't even that busy in the lounge and dining room almost empty. Food was ok but not the best. I think my martini was short maybe some spilled out on tray on the way to table. Not happy about that. Not a manager in sight. Do better. We all can do better... train your team and support them to do better. Something is missing 😔

I think this must be the only higher level restaurant in the area because it could be better but people are still going to come. I had what's called a reservation. I indicated it was to celebrate a birthday and a window table would be preferred. They first tried to seat us in the bar where everyone was wearing t-shirts and jeans and we were nicely dressed. After I reminded him that we had a reservation he attempted to put us at a table not near a window even though there were open tables near the window. So then I asked if reservations were useless there. A server overheard our discussion and had him put us in her section at a window table. He tried to say they never know how many people are going to show up and that's why we weren't going to be seated at the window and I kept asking what good was a reservation then? Ultimately not a single person in the restaurant bothered to say happy birthday. Experience so far: 0/5 The bread they provide is unique in that it has garlic butter on top. It's good but you need more butter for the rest of the bread. The menu is limited overall. People come here because they must like what's on the menu not because there are a lot of choices. We both got the prime rib. It was fine. The mashed potatoes were great! This is a rare restaurant that has asparagus as the veg which was fabulous. The horseradish was pretty good and I don't generally like horseradish. Dessert menu had choices but only one chocolate option, the lava turtle cake. Now I'll say it was good but I wouldn't call it lava. It was a warm chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream with chocolate drizzle, pecans (which they claimed were candied pecans but they were not) and caramel sauce which I generally don't care for but theirs went well with the dessert. At one point I had to wait for a while just to get more water. I thank the server for helping us get a window table in her section, but it felt like we were always trying to be upsold on food and alcohol items. There were more valuable tables around us with more people who were drinking and doing appetizers. So I understand from a server perspective we weren't a good table. We only spent $150 for 2 people. God forbid! I would not return overall and I wish we had just gone to SF. Normally we take photos of ourselves and the food but we didn't bother. 😒

The food was mostly good but the lobster bisque was horrible or it had been held too long. When I go to an upscale place I don't want to be rushed, so I normally will only order one course at a time, so I'll the food doesn't show up at once. We'll I broke my rule, and what do you know my huge and good combination appetizer wasn't 1/4 finished when here comes the bisque followed within 2 minutes of the entree. Now my entrees are getting cold so I can enjoy the app. I get it I have served, its more efficient and during s very busy dinner everything probably would have taken longer but We were one of 3 couples in the restaurant. Slow it down. Once the food was served she never checked back, not because she was busy...lol I had to complain about the bisque to the buss person who took care of it. Honestly won't go back. I would say it was just okay.

Made reservation but they were not ready to seat us until 15 minutes after reservation. And we intentionally did early dinner time slot. So my advice is to plan accordingly and just show up early for an earlier reservation time since they may not provide you your table at the appointed reservation time. Food was a mix bag. The slow roasted herb crusted ribeye was delicious - had it cooked medium rare. But the seafood trio was a no go - taste was mediocre. We ordered kids a pasta and a fish and chip. I would say it's kind of a joke - pasta was cooked on the mushy side and too salty, while the fried battered fish seemed like those frozen ones pumped with water (it had that slight spongy and watery texture that my kids didn't eat it after the first bite). Service was poor. Server had to be reminded multiple times just to bring either a coloring sheet for the kids, or for some napkins. The evening that we went seemed to be on the average loud side and since we were seated at the corner upon entry to the lower dining space, it was a constant buzz - one would have thought being in such a spot there would be greater service but nope. Overall a disappointing experience considering the $$$ paid for a meal there. Only thing that made it tolerable was the view.

Our server was excellent. Small group of women. I have been coming for years and was excited to the open faced crab sandwich. It was not the same. It was 99%onions, 1%crab if that. It didn't even taste the same. I think they changed the recipe.

I'm giving 2 star review because I booked my Thanksgiving reservation in advance, when my husband & I showed up to the restaurant the hostess couldn't find my reservation for 2, had to kindly remind her I confirmed my reservation the day before. When we were seated, we served drinks and the 1st waitress took our order, a couple of minutes later the manager said our 1st waitress had to go home, so we had a new waitress, the 1st waitress apparently didn't take down our order so we had to reorder our food, reason for my 2 star review was the wait time for food and for our drinks to be refilled was super slow, the waitress never brought the bread she offered to our table, we asked for the desserts to be to go because we were full, they were brought to the table instead and had to wait for them to be boxed to go had to wait to get the check, we used to love coming here to eat...We will not be coming to dine at this restaurant again nor will be recommending our friends or family to do so either, please hire better hostess front of the house employees who have better customer service skills, and hire waitresses and waiters that are faster, this is the longest time we ever sat in a restaurant (almost 2 hours waiting for food) the service was so slow. I gave the food 5 stars because the food was delicious, compliments to the chef & kitchen staff. I chose this restaurant because it was close to the house since my husband has to work, and that we've been here before, not the same restaurant vibe as when we were here last time.

Long rant... I had dinner at this location recently, and was displeased with the food and service. I've eaten here several times, and the food has been wonderful, and I know the staff works hard. This particular evening, as we were seated, the waiter came to our table to greet us, but he must've been overwhelmed, because he was rushing the conversation. First he explained only one to specialty, and he left to go wait on another table. He came back to see if we wanted any drinks and appetizers, we had asked for bread and glasses of water for the moment as we were considering our order. He came back with two glasses of water, and slammed them on the table and left to wait on another table behind us. When he finally came back to our table, we were ready to order, and, I had a question. He seemed very impatient, but we went ahead and ordered. I ordered the Grilled Seafood Trio, and my guest ordered Almond Crusted Sea Scallops. We ordered drinks as well, and when he returned with our drinks, again, he slammed them on the table and left. He finally brought out our food, mine was first, and then he went to get my guest's plate. While we were waiting, I looked at the portion size of the food on my plate, and looked at my guest. Finally, her plate came out, and she asked him about the advertised asparagus that came with the meal, what the menu didn't say, was that it was the tip of the top of the asparagus. She questioned them about the asparagus, and he went to bring her fuller asparagus. When I questioned the portion of the food on my plate, he could not accommodate anything. He then called the manager, who in turn said, that this is the correct portion. I've had this meal before, and it was not like this. My meal received for this visit, is in the attached picture. So, has the price of food increased that much, and the portions shrunk. Oh, BTW, we had to ask the waiter for our bread. When we complained about the waiter and the food, the waiter came back to our table and apologized for his manners, and then left. I will come back here again, I just be won't order this meal again. 😟

I have been going here for years it was a family favorite for birthdays, special occasions or just for a nice treat. I recently want this weekend to celebrate a birthday. I was disappointed in the food. The taste was just not the same. Idk if there’s a new chef but our server was excellent and the atmosphere is always pleasing to the eye. However I think I’ll just settle for a walk around the marina next time.

I’ve been here before; apparently it’s been a minute. I made the mistake of raving about this place, suggesting to a couple of friends that it would be a great spot for Sunday brunch. But was I wrong. I have never had service this horrible, especially at this price. We had trouble even getting place settings for the three of us. Drinks took almost 40 minutes, and getting water took forever. The appetizer took over an hour, and we ended up passing one plate around between the three of us because our server couldn’t get it together and simply bring plates out with the order. By the time we placed our entrée order, we had already been there over an hour. The food then took another 45 minutes to an hour to arrive. We had to repeatedly ask for the salad, which, where I come from, generally shows up before the entrée. We asked for condiments, and the server put her hands up and said, “Wait!”—that she was trying to get the salad out. The place was not that busy. At all. To make it worse, the service felt incredibly impersonal. The server never introduced herself, staff do not wear name tags, and we had no idea who was actually taking care of us. We were not impressed by any of it, especially the service. Had our server actually introduced herself, I’d put her on blast right now. Finally, someone helped us get a manager to our table. The manager had noticed we’d been waiting a long time, yet didn’t step in until we asked. After making excuses for the lousy service, we sent the filet mignon back. It was dry and tough. Other food was overcooked, soggy, or lukewarm. The manager did end up sending out another filet and comping the entire meal. Even if they had tried to be a little more professional and courteous and kept drinks coming, it probably would have gone a long way. But being ignored, hands up and told to wait, is completely unacceptable. These people were rude and disingenuous—they’re in the wrong business. I felt terrible for suggesting this place. That’s 3.5–4 hours of life we won’t get back. I won't make that mistake twice.
