American
Perry’s on the Embarcadero is a sleek waterfront outpost of the Union Street original, following the same combination of all-American favorite fare and comfortable, welcoming service that Perry’s first made a San Francisco hallmark in 1969. The décor is warm – murals reminiscent of the memorabilia made famous on Union Street, combined with exposed brick walls, a wood-burning fireplace and breathtaking views of the Bay and the Bay Bridge.

Perry’s is known today, as much as ever, for its classic American food, its warm personable service and its fun, bustling bar. Perry's traditional yet innovative menu includes a wide variety of sandwiches, salads, pastas, steaks and grilled fresh fish. Perry’s on the Embarcadero is conveniently located in the heart of San Francisco’s bustling financial district, across the street from the Ferry Building, less than a mile from AT&T Park and easy to reach by public transportation from all over the city and the greater Bay Area.

    I came to Perry’s for an anniversary dinner with my wonderful girlfriend and it was perfect! The menu was full of comfort foods with great prices. I ordered a Rueben and it was delicious, while the GF ordered BBQ ribs and they were so tender, they practically just came apart. The view was great, and the service was exceptional as our waiter was very attentive. Would definitely eat here again!

    The quality of the food was extremely disappointing. I’ve ordered the chopped salad probably 50 times over the years and yesterday’s was just bad. The chicken was flavorless and tasted frozen, the garbanzo beans were like hard pellets. Ugh

    Perry's is a go-to in the neighborhood for me. Lots of great menu options -- I particularly love the Southwest Chicken Salad. Have a good selection of wine and beer plus a full bar for cocktails. The outdoor seating on the Embarcadero side is great on nice days -- view of the Bay and the Bay Bridge.

    We ate inside, the tables were too close to one another. One can barely walk between them. With COVID still looming, there should be more distance between tables. The beet salad was full of greens but stingy with the beets - just shaved pieces, can barely call it a beet salad. The sole meuniere was excellent with mashed potatoes and cooked green squash. The spaghetti with meatballs was very good, but could use a bit more sauce - it was a bit dry. Service was attentive and respectful.

    Great place for a nice but not-too-formal business lunch near the Embarcadero, that doesn’t have to break the bank. Good entree (salad/sandwich) options <$20, in addition to more complex meals in the $30-$40 range. Decent vegetarian options too.

    Do not go to this restaurant late Saturday afternoon and especially do not eat outside-- the dinner was interrupted many times by noisy motorcyclists going up and down the Embarcadero, and the restaurant management said no one could do anything about it. Food was mediocre as well.
