Best Fish Restaurants in Civic Center / Hayes Valley / Van Ness

Amazing food & ambience! As well as value and quality! We will return and bring friends to try other items on their menu'! It's located in the heart of the Mission in SF, but when you enter you forget all about it. It's cozy. Clean. And not too noisy. Service was hospitable, friendly and fast! We started with the "chef choice" crudo plate. Delicious and well prepared with sophisticated sauces. Sun dried tomatoes, olive oils, pomegranate, jalapeño, vinegar. Highly recommend. We were with our 2 adult kids, and we ate family style. The salad was simple but was made with so much care and precision. No wilted greens here! It had sunflower seeds and fried garlic for a great crunch along with some Persian cucumbers with a light vinaigrette and mint to finish. Must order! It's Dungeness crab season so we tried their pasta with Meyer lemon and butter dish, slam dunk! The pasta I assume was in house made with how smooth, light and chewy (perfect) it was, the dish had a good amount of crab in the sauce. We ended with sea bass at the end, it was moist, savory with yummy crunchy skin! My favorite! Served on a bed of potatoes with tomatoes that were stewed/ sautéd together, they went together so well! Since all the food was great, we had to get dessert, plus it's my partner's bday, we got the "off menu" tiramisu and their version of Apple galette with Dulce de leche. Not too sweet at all! You can taste the ingredients and enjoy the desserts for how their described:) Literally we cleaned off each plate'! I highly recommend for an amazing Italian food dinner experience! Hats off to the chef and their amazing team! Thank you!

Best Eggplant Parmesan I’ve ever had!!! The Italian dishes seemed very authentic.

This is an excellent CAVIAR TASTING! They think of everything you need to savor each of their Caviars. We have been seated with Tim last 2 times. He is so thoughtful, personable, & experienced in Caviar Service. We also enjoyed Jaden & Moses helping with our service. Be sure to order dessert! It’s exceptional. Great place for birthday celebrations! We like to come every time we are in SF!
