My Review
Our order was delivered to the hotel lobby for pickup. It was my first time getting delivery in another country, so it felt pretty cool!

It arrived in a large container, with the bread separately packaged. Inside the bag, we found an apron, bread, butter, and the Cioppino container. (We requested disposable spoons and forks, but they were unfortunately missed.)


The portion size was truly beyond our imagination. The container was more than half-filled with the incredible seafood stew.

After getting blasted by the cold wind during the Big Bus Sunset Tour, a hot, soupy dish was exactly what we needed. This Cioppino was an absolutely perfect match!

The tomato stew was brimming with a fantastic variety of seafood: crab, shrimp, clams, mussels, squid, and even some pasta noodles!

Dipping the crusty baguette bread into the stew was truly delicious.

There were so many plump shrimp that it felt like they just kept coming, no matter how much we ate!

The crab was conveniently scored, making it easy to extract the meat, and it was packed full – we were really satisfied.


The broth, a rich tomato base infused with deep seafood flavors, was absolutely spot-on. It was refreshing and clean – a combination that simply can't fail!

Overall Thoughts
If you're exploring San Francisco and find yourself craving a hearty, warm bowl of something delicious, Cioppino is the answer!
✅ Perfect for those who want to try a dish born in San Francisco.
✅ Ideal for seafood stew lovers who enjoy generous portions.
✅ Super convenient for anyone looking to easily order via Uber Eats.
I wholeheartedly recommend Sotto Mare's Cioppino!
