About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Innovative
  • Great for fine wines
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.

Chef de Cuisine, Joe Hou

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.

    I made a reservation 2 weeks in advance. When we arrived they gave us a table outside, and we asked to be moved inside. They said it was impossible. However, tables moved in and out. It was dissapponting. The food was good but not at the level of other Michelin restaurants.
    Angler San FranciscoResponded 3 days ago
    Thank you for dining with us and for your feedback. Your reservation was booked specifically on our patio, which is the option on OpenTable that you chose. While we’re happy to accommodate seating preferences when possible, we do not move tables between the patio and dining room unless it’s been requested and only if space allows. During your visit, we were fully booked indoors, so unfortunately, we were unable to make a last-minute change. That said, I’m sorry the experience didn’t meet your expectations. Should you choose to join us again, I’d be happy to personally ensure you’re seated inside at one of our coziest tables. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me personally and I will make sure the reservation is booked indoors. Kayla Pope General Manager

    We had an evening birthday dinner at 8:30 and there was plenty of people, service was wonderful because we were seated right away, the environment was calm smelled of smoking woods and warmness from the huge cooking kitchen fire. 10/10 caviar with a wonderful whole roasted chicken and a refreshing salad, we took out leftover home. Thank you Angler for our first but not last dinner experience. -SF Locals

    We never been to a restaurant with a micheline star. We were so excited and they delivered. Rafael was our server and made sure to make it a nice memorable night. From the cocktails to the appetizers through the main dish and the desert it was a true experience. We are very greatfull they made my wife’s birthday so special.

    My experience at Angler San Francisco was nothing short of incredible. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect. We were seated at the exact table I had requested in my reservation, with a stunning view of the bay, which truly elevated the entire evening. The wine selection was impeccable, perfectly complementing our meal. The frog legs were an absolute delight—cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. The service was outstanding; our main server had a unique, charming demeanor and offered subtle, thoughtful dish recommendations that made the meal even more enjoyable. Every dish exceeded our expectations, showcasing the kitchen’s remarkable skill and creativity. To top it all off, the dessert and coffee were exceptional. I was particularly surprised by the quality of the coffee—it was among the best I’ve ever had at a restaurant. We can’t wait to return to Angler for another unforgettable dining experience!
