   A terrific menu, and we tried many things. The lobster bisque was outrageously delicious and balanced, as usual. The tuna tartare appetizer was fresh and wonderful, and the gnocchi with Dungeness crab was worth the trip all in itself. The chef came out and spoke with us and we heard about the great work he’s been doing to upgrade and further refine everything in this iconic spot. The views are better than any restaurant in all of San Francisco. Go!!

   We arrived about 10 minutes after our reservation, however, that never detracted from the service we received. I called ahead to let them know and they just provided us with the closing information. Glen was absolutely awesome!!! He was attentive, knowledgeable, professional, and personable. Although we were his last table for the night, he made us feel like his first on this holiday weekend. From beginning to end this was an excellent experience to round out our weekend getaway. We have been here before and we will definitely return and request Glen!

   Lovely restaurant with huge windows and beautiful Bay views. The food was exceptional, the service brisk and attentive, and the cocktails interesting and inspired. Situated in one of the most "touristy" spots in San Francisco, this restaurant feels anything but. This is the only true fine dining exeprience we found in this part of the city.

   Lobster tails ordered, about the size of a big shrimp. One steak was over cooked, sent back. The food quality wasn’t worth the cost.

   Great service great food ! Lauren was great! Suggested the truffle Mac N cheese to go along with our filets and the truffle butter as well. Both suggestions were delicious and will be going back again to try the desserts she suggested at the end. hopefully the gnocchi will be back in stock next time but great experience !

    This is a great place to take out of town visitors. Obviously a tourist stop. We had a lovely view of the Bay and Alcatraz. The crab cake appetizer and the Oyster appetizer were the best. The cesaer salad was weak. My wife said the mussels were minuscule. Our friends had the salmon and mushroom pasta and liked both very much. Service was attentive. I would go back again with out of town visitors if your primary purpose is catching up with friends and the food is secondary to your evening.

    My sister ordered her filet medium but it was almost rare. Mei our waitress noticed that it was not as ordered and offered to have it replaced without being asked. The replacement filet was as ordered and my sister was able to enjoy her meal. Kudos to Mei!

    Fantastic food—calamari, crab dip, mixed greens salad as apps; lobster bisque x 2 as main; based on other reviews I ordered the scampi with extra garlic and it was perfect. Glass of Meiomi Pinot 2017 was also excellent—much more complex and longer finish than I remember that vintage being a few years ago. Waitress was among the best in past few yrs of dining attempts since onset of pandemic.

    I had to wait at least 15 minutes before a server came to my table. I was dining alone. It didn't appear there was a shortage of servers. When Jessica did come to my table she was friendly and did provide excellent service. My wife and I had dinner at the restaurant in April 2019 the service was faster. Overall, the view was nice and the food was excellent. We've eaten at many of the seafood restaurants on Fisherman's Wharf which are all very good. McCormick & Kuleto's is one of our favorites.

    We had the lobster and crab dip, bread and butter, 6oz filet mignon, jumbo shrimp scampi with linguine and the chocolate bag for dessert. The best things were the bread and butter and the chocolate bag plus the view. The dip was ok but the toasted bread were over toasted. The filet was ordered medium rare but came out medium at best but the seasoning was decent. The shrimp dish that was tossed in white wine, garlic, tomatoes and lemon only tasted of lemon. There was no hint of garlic or wine white in the shrimp dish. The waitress gave poor service as she seem non-existence for our needs i.e. no timely refills on drinks or asking us how are meal was. We ordered the chocolate bag and the waitress brought out chocolate silk pie. I had to tell her twice after she brought it out that we wanted the chocolate bag and then she finally got it. We lacked attention from the waitress as well as management. It would be my recommendation that you only go for the view and dessert since everything else seemed to suck. Good luck in your dining experience.

Came back the next night for a quick dinner just my husband and I - enjoyed a Cioppino to share, the typical messy crab cracking was worth it …so good!!

    We're in San Francisco about once a year and for the past 6 or 7 years we've had dinner here and it never disappoints. First of all, the setting can't be beat -- an elegant restaurant with 3 tiers of tables overlooking massive windows that show the entire Bay waterfront and distant shores. Second, the menu is broad enough to please everyone; prices are very reasonable, and service is pleasant and professional. And most important the food is excellent, from the warm bread that starts the meal, to salads and AMAZING desserts. But the real key of course is the entrees, and the fish is consistently fresh and well prepared. The only surprise is that on a recent weekday evening the place wasn't packed, even with lots of conventions in town. Completely recommend it.

    Food isn’t the greatest will say it’s average compared to the price paid$$ however since prices are based on the location and the scenery then it’s fair and worth the price will be back for the scenery, drinks and services for sure but not food😉

    I was hesitant about McCormick and Kuletos because of the somewhat mixed reviews. But, it was close to our hotel and convenient after a full day of touring. As it turned out, the food and service were quite good! My husband opted for a salad and shrimp scampi. I have a limited diet, so they specially prepared grilled sea bass with cilantro rice and fresh veggies for me. Both entrees were delicious, and the portions were generous. I'm glad we chose to eat here and, of course, the views were unsurpassed.

    June 2022 vacation visit. I have depended on McCormick & Kuleto's (formerly Schmick's) to provide an outstanding dining experience for over 20 years when visiting San Francisco. I was confident recommending this restaurant to my travel companions and we had a great evening with excellent food and service. (Thank you to Kim, our server). And we booked with OpenTable for the points.

    Very thoughtful and friendly service, but unfortunately nothing at all on the menu could begin to live up to the epic view across the bay. If you go here be sure to reserve a table along the window because that will be the best part of the meal Bone-in Ribeye was a good cut and on the mark at Medium-rare; Caesar salad was Applebee's-level with excessive, wrongly-tangy dressing; Mashed potatoes appeared to be instant; scallops were tough and small, whited chocolate mousse-bag was overstuffed.

    Good lunch this afternoon. Food was very good, particularly the lobster bisque and the cioppino. Service was attentive and friendly. Only issue is the restaurant no longer validates for parking, though they still advertise as doing so. Be prepared to fork over another $20 for parking.

    The dining room sits right on the beach, about three stories above the street. Completely amazing view of Alcatraz Island and Golden Gate bridge. Great view and ambience. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. The food was great. I got the blackened ribeye steak with vegetables and roasted potatoes. Everything was top notch.

    Ordered shrimp cocktail--tasteless, and trout with crab, mildly flavorful. Creme Brulee was good. Had a terrific wine. Waitress was terrible, had to ask her to ask someone about the wine list, twice I told her that I wanted to taste the wine, but she brought me a full glass anyway, after asking her twice where the wine was (20 minute wait).
