About Scott’s Seafood on the River
Scott’s Seafood on the River
In 1976, on the corner of Scott and Lombard, three men put their heads together and came up with the concept that we now know as Scott’s Seafood Grill and Bar. Since then, we have grown and changed from our original 40 seat restaurant to our award-winning Scott’s Seafood on the River featuring sustainably harvested seafood, simply prepared and served in a comfortable atmosphere by a friendly, attractive, well-trained staff.
Alan and Sigrid Irvine opened Scott’s on the River in January 2008, later partnering with the Westin Sacramento and are open every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner, brunch on the weekend. As our name suggests, being beside the flowing waters of the Sacramento River draws out our stress and helps us relax. Add in your favorite glass of wine and a wonderful meal and you are refreshed and ready to rock.
Our fire pits and heated patio just add to the atmosphere. This is the perfect setting for a special moment or two with partners, friends and family.
Celebrations are our passion, whether in our seasonal riverbank tent (think weddings, business retreats), in our ballroom (think meetings, family celebrations) or in our more intimate venues. Our catering staff will help you design a successful event from start to finish.
So, welcome to Scott’s Seafood on the River! Come in, sit down and prepare to have a good time!

We are very excited about him to joining our team. We got to feature him in our Terra Madre booth this year. Which happened last weekend. It was a lot of fun, and seeing people get excited for oysters was heartwarming.
AUGUST 2025
Evenings on the Sacramento River have been amazing, warm but not too hot. We have been mostly spared the 100-degree days of July. The patio forms the perfect setting for a relaxed and personal dining experience, delta breezes wafting their coolness throughout. Our personable staff are there to make sure every guest feels special, whether it’s a birthday, anniversary or just an evening out.

“Salads and lighter style dining. My favorites are the Peach and Burrata Salad followed by the Pacific Rim Salad with Ahi. Perfect for a summer evening. We are working on our fall menu already so if you have any comments or suggestions, please email me at–“
