Point Loma Seafoods: Simply the best place in town for seafood aficionados!
Time-honored with over four decades of seafood excellence, Point Loma Seafoods has pleased seafood-loving palates since 1963. Originally a small retail seafood store, owners Kelly Christianson and his wife Marie expanded to smoking and processing seafood and eventually became one of San Diego's favorite seafood dining spots. Point Loma Seafoods' slogan says it all: "The freshest thing in town."
Serving traditional Casual Seafood Cuisine with an emphasis on its unsurpassed fresh seafood, there is also a fresh seafood market on location. Point Loma Seafoods is an adamant supporter of our local California fishermen.
Point Loma Seafoods' charming ambiance offers lots of outdoor seating on their gracious patio that comfortably seats one hundred hungry seafood fans, plus another dining area for even another hundred seafood lovers. The perfect place for the tastiest homemade chowders, freshest shrimp and crabmeat served hot on bakery-fresh just-out-of-the-oven sourdough bread and, of course, accompanied with homemade tarter sauce or cocktail sauce. All this and a view of the beautiful Bay, too! It just doesn't get much better than this!
The philosophy and menu at Point Loma Seafoods has been steadfast through the years, but specials and seasonal fresh fish are available. Salads and grilled fish have been added, but for the most part, Mrs. Kelly's traditional recipes are still tried and true. Based on Mrs. Kelly, wife of Kelly Christianson and fondly known as Mrs. Kelly, her wonderful recipes and luscious menu item selections are still called Mrs. Kelly's Breading and Mrs. Kelly's Fish and Chips, as her very special culinary creations have long been enjoyed.
Point Loma Seafoods boasts having the largest selection of seafood in Southern California. Premium smoked seafood, filets, scallops, shrimp of all sizes, fresh crab, salmon, mussels, clams, live lobsters and whole fish, to name a few, are available for retail sale. Plus, a Sushi Chef is on board and at your service!
Having a reputation for serving high quality seafood cuisine, reputable chefs have indeed paid Point Loma Seafoods a lip-smacking-good visit. Not meaning to name drop or anything, but Tyler Florence, Rachael Ray and Bobby Flay have tasted the fine fish fare of this renowned seafood heaven.
Point Loma Seafoods' reasons for being are to provide pure joy in eating great food and to share that joy with friends and family. Along with offering the community the very freshest fish fresh right off the fishing line, Point Loma Seafoods is truly an extraordinary dining experience.
Stop in, relax, and enjoy good old-fashioned super-delicious food, fast friendly service and, of course, treat your taste buds to Mrs. Kelly's tasty traditions!

Definitely proving to be a longtime harmonious combination, it's been thirty years since Sam Bologna was offered the Kitchen Manager's job at Point Loma Seafoods.
Home-style cooking is especially Sam's favorite. He loves refining and perfecting the basic foundation of home-style recipes he grew up loving.
