It's a nice experience that we had on Christmas day 2023, with good food, relaxing environment, although a little bit crowded due to holiday season.

I didn't know what to expect and I'm so happy I came to eat here. The food tastes like fresh clean crisp and the vibe has all Forest Gump plus the workers are helpful and kind.

Bubba Gump Shrimp is always a good place to eat at. I’ve been here several times and have always had a wonderful experience each time. I love the overall atmosphere and culture. The staff is always very helpful and friendly. The food always comes out excellent and delicious. It’s my favorite spot on pier 39. I definitely recommend and will be back. Thank you!

I really enjoyed my food. The salmon was cooked to perfection. The crab and shrimp were very moist and flavorful. I would definitely recommend this place for some good seafood. The restrooms were clean, given the high traffic. Overall, it was a very good experience.

Mouthwatering seafood. The portions are generous, the staff is friendly and the ambiance is great. You can have a view for Alcatraz from a table. Definitely I would love to visit bubba gump again.

I love Bubba Gump! What’s nice about this location is most of their seating is overlooking the bay. What a great way to eat some seafood while looking at the sea!
The restaurant is located at the back of the pier on the second floor. There are so many signs I walked right past it the first time. Just go to the back and look up and there it is.
The greeter was cheerful and guided me to the seating line. I was sat quickly at a great table looking at Alcatraz. The Server was friendly and explained the sign system; I already knew it bet let them go through it.
I got the Shrimp Cocktail and Salmon. Both were very good and cooked perfectly. The Server brought the check and I was able to pay quickly. There is a service fee added to the bill which I think is a CA thing so I made sure my tip and service fee totaled my typical 20% top.
Overall, a good place for those of us who like casual dining chains.
Also, I want to say that I was in San Francisco for two weeks and never once did I feel unsafe or uncomfortable. Coming from out of town all I heard on the media is how bad San Francisco is, but I thought this was a great trip and I’ll be back!
Thanks for listening and travel safe everyone.

Since I'm a big Forrest Gump fan, I had to come here. And I was not disappointed!
Food - great! I had shrimp cocktail and jambalaya.
Service - very friendly, fast and courteous!
Ambiance - many props from the movie are here, very authentic.
However, it is a bit noisy here.
Still, I highly recommend it!

I came here multiple times, with my husband and son, my parents or my siblings. Each trips was enjoyable.
Nice location. You can watch the sea and the Azkaba.. oops 😬 that’s HP, my bad, watch the Alcatraz islands. Enjoying seafood and viewing the ocean is always a nice combo, isn’t it?
Very nice staff. They’re fast, friendly and humorous. And you have to wave for the staff’s attention, just turn over the sign that says “Stop! forest, stop!”. One will come.
If you have your birthday, all the staff will come and celebrate. They will sing the Happy birthday song and clap and cheer, giving you best wishes and an unforgettable time. Not once did I witnessed this joyful experience at other tables. I would love to experience this, too, but I’m too shy 🙈 to say “hey! It’s my birthday.”
The food is very good. I have visited many seafood restaurants in other tourist attractions besides Pier 39, like Santa Cruz wharf or Monterey’s aquarium and Old Fisherman’s wharf. Bubba Gump Shrimp in Pier 39 probably is still my top 1, where I actually enjoy my seafood. The atmosphere is just right.

It's always a pleasure visiting Bubba Gump Shrimp but this time was by far the BEST!!! I personally thanked Diana but I now want to publicly thank Diana for her amazing service and food recommendation. I was conflicted with what I wanted to eat. I reviewed the menu multiple times and kept eyeing the jambalaya but wasn't sold on it. I asked for her opinion and the first item that she recommended was the jambalaya and it was amazing! For the first time in a long time I got my money's worth. The jambalaya is inexpensive approximately $22 but we ended up purchasing multiple dishes to sample and take home. All of the food was great shout out to the chef that worked on that particular night we appreciate you also.

Couple of minutes wait to be seated. Friendly, attentive and cheerful waitress. Fast service on the food.
I ordered mama's fried chicken. Now, for me, when it said fried chicken, I expected it to b crispy fried chicken regardless what part of the chicken. I was not happy. It came as nugget type white meat ( probably chicken breast). And not even crispy nor breaded at all. Chicken nuggets from McDonald is better. And the fries that came with it, also not crispy, It came with a small portion of cole slaw, that's bland. So yea, I'm disappointed on that order, but I still ate it.
Then my hubby ordered that LT Dan's surf & turf. That one is not bad. And not a WOW too. It's good enough. Ribs are tender, mild on the bbq sauce, but there's a side sauce for it. The shrimps are tasty. So this one is not disappointing. Then we had a bowl of the clam chowder. This one tasted real good. A+ on this, only thing is that it's not chunky enough for me. But, tasted yummy. Then lastly, we had that half a pound Cajun shrimper's net catch. Simple, Average. Good enough. Shrimps are just cooked right. Was not over cooked. It was a delight.
Over all, the costumer service was great. Food - are above average.
Am I going to come back again?..
Yup, definitely!
