Welcome to The Dead Fish Restaurant, A casual, comfortable restaurant overlooking the Carquinez Straits in Crockett, California. Find us easily on a near me search. The mouth-watering menu at The Dead Fish features great seafood and much more with headings like "Recently Demised Fish of the Day," and "Dead or Alive" after a humorous spin on the story behind the restaurant's moniker: The Chef's beloved Nonna cooked for a big family and didn't have time to track all of the different recipes she prepared, so when her grandson asked what kind of fish she cooked, she replied, "It's a dead fish!"
