"Every sign and decoration in this location says the chowder is good and caution, you may become addicted. After a few less-than-stellar food experiences in Bodega over the past couple days, I was HIGHLY skeptical of this restaurant 's claims. There is a line, always, as far as I can tell until the very end of the day. The hours are early morning for fresh raw fish/seafood and midday until 4 or 5pm in the afternoon for served meals. We drove by at noon to a line around the corner and down the street. We came back at 3pm after a hike to a much shorter, but still wrapped around the shed, line. It took us about ~30 minutes to get up to the counter to order. We each got a clam chowder. Even though I wanted to split it because I didn 't want to be let down again by food I 'm Bodega Bay, my partner insisted we have our own. We also split a crab sandwich. OK. THIS PLACE IS ACTUALLY GOOD. (I will caveat this with...you have to like the taste of seafood. That is what 's served and that is what shines in each menu option). I was so so so happy. The white clam chowder was creamy. I don 't even think it had bacon in it (which a lot of chowders do) and yet it was perfectly salted. Perfectly creamy. Perfectly seasoned. Lots and lots of clams. THANK GOODNESS we each had our own. Yum yum yum yum. The crab sandwich was also the best I have had in my life. It was very simple. Loaded with 1/4 lb of crab meat and a light mayo-based sauce, on a bigger hot dog bun kind of role. It wasn 't dripping with sauce, it was just focused on enhancing the crab as the star of the show and oh my gosh was it ever. It was perfect. It was everything. We did grab a loaf of fresh French bread because everyone else was doing it, and I highly recommend as we ate half the thing by dipping pieces into our clam chowder. The bag says extra sour , I don 't know if I believe that, but it was really good sour French bread and I am glad we had that to scoop up all the clam chowder drops. This place is reason alone to go back to Bodega Bay for a day or weekend trip. Seriously. That good. If you are not convinced, I encourage you to keep your skepticism and be blown away."

"that I wrote to ivars - while the ladies were great at the front counter, there was a personal (one man), that was on the floor all the time when I was there, ran his mouth to sit/eat there meal. he could not help out the rest of the staff that worked there when he continued his mouth, and this was the answer that I received back - dear heart stenson, I am really sorry that I spoke out with customers in a friendly and appealing way at my day. I was really glad to see my hospitable as he had some health and mobility problems and wanted him to feel that he wanted, was missing and that I was really happy to see him and his caregiver. I'm just sorry that I hadn't seen him before as I had bought them for lunch and maybe spent more time with him, he's really an amazing man and has been in the seat for over 90 years. I find his life expectancy and what lies in the small opposite in which we live in front of me. what the girls and coworkers who need my help, I assure them that they were more than able to take care of the guests and were probably glad that I did not in the wise that they did the excellent work they do every day they work. So while they let me know that they were not happy with me, it is obvious that they are my associates wonderful and I appreciate that trusting in them that they have shown I will make sure that the ladies and men who have worked, know that their work is over the blame and that it is noticed. many thanks for them critique and have a wonderful week, please come to us to celebrate ivar birthday in this week and have a great day paul s. mcdonaldmanageraurora ivars -interesting hä? for someone on the day in his Ivar amuse, and there free on his day."
