Blackened ahi tuna; shrimp tacos; grilled swordfish. They're all on the menu at Santa Rosa Seafood Grill, which opened about a mile and a half away from Creekside Park at the end of August. So even though the eatery hasn't been in business for very long, it's already making waves—pun intended—all across the city.

An offshoot of a longstanding family seafood shop, Santa Rosa Seafood Grill dishes out fresh fish straight from the Pacific. Kick off your meal with a starter such as the Bay Shrimp Cocktail with house-made cocktail sauce, lemon, and, of course, plump Pacific Bay shrimp. Fried calamari, hush puppies, and raw oysters are on the menu, too. Save some room for a main course, though, such as the Chilean sea bass, grilled salmon, or fish and chips.
