About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for scenic views
  • Innovative
Angler is a seafood-focused Saison Hospitality Group restaurant with one Michelin star on the Embarcadero waterfront, featuring views of our expansive wood burning hearth and the San Francisco Bay, where each dish is touched by fire and intended to be shared.

Our sourcing is deliberate and our menus closely follow the seasons of Northern California.

From the OpenTable editors: Expect bold, seafood-focused dishes cooked over an expansive wood-burning hearth and equally outstanding Bay views at this MICHELIN-Starred stunner. With exposed brick, wood paneling, and a prolific taxidermy collection, the sophisticated lodge-like space is a lively setting for digging into standout dishes like grilled hand-dived scallops and hot-fried frog legs with cardamom crème fraîche.

    We’ve been many times and usually found the food to be excellent. This time it was so so and it is extremely expensive.

    Fantastic friendly service. Very helpful, friendly and kind. Some of the best I've had in the Bay Area. The food was great. As many have said the hasselback potato is amazing. The chili butter oysters are so good as well, spicy but just enough to warm up your mouth. The wood fired scallop is perfectly cooked. The cocktails I had were quite well balanced (kokoribe (sp) was really fun with the scorched coconut on the big ice cube).

    Amazing food, we were here for a birthday and there were so many wonderful things. The special was a crab fried rice that I’d highly recommend. Caviar was worth trying and the scallops were fantastic. We were seated outside which is nice enough, but traffic on the Embarcadero is loud. Main complaint is there was a forty minute gap between appetizers and the main course. This timing is a bit disappointing for a Michelin starred restaurant.

    Is there a new chef? Lunch was a huge disappointment. Lobster buns were dry and too small. Filling was swimming in mayonnaise and very heavily spiced. There was no tail meat, just minced claw meat. I couldn’t believe how bad it was. I’ve taken Angler off my favorite restaurant short list.

    We indulged in the “cook for you” experience since it was our anniversary and we are both adventurous foodies The food was simply divine! Each bite was as crafted with skill and love. The service was the best I’ve ever had. we had 3 waiters attending to our every need. Each time my water glass got even a little low, it was refilled. When our plates were cleared, they swept the area in front of me free from crumbs. Hot towels were brought after eating the grilled prawns and again after the hot fried frog legs. I can’t recommend Angler enough! Everyone should experience it for themselves.
