   It is a great location. Food is very refined. Service is superb. Really enjoyed my lunch there. Great place to come with people from out of town to show the best of San Francisco dining and views.

   I’ve eaten here a few times and every time it’s been a very pleasurable experience. Food is delicious (the whole Dorade was the best fish we’ve ever eaten), and the service is fast, attentive and friendly. The view doesn’t get better and the restaurant itself is a fun, comfortable and lively vibe. We will definitely be back!

   The service and food were outstanding! Our waiter was amazing - he made sure my meal was free of all the things I’m allergic to and recommended the best dessert - chocolate sorbet! Great restaurant and experience!

   We had an amazing table between the big fish tank tower and the window. Food was good, the drinks were great. But my one complaint was the presentation of the (pricey) shrimp cocktail. The shrimp were just laying on a plate with a little bowl of cocktail sauce. I recalled in the past that the presentation was far more fun and beautiful. And while the shrimp themselves were delicious, there was no "wow factor" when the plate was set down for us. Possible "Pro Tip" -- you are more likely to get a better table location booking a 4 (or more) table top than a 2-top table.

   We had lunch there for our friend’s 43rd anniversary! We had the best raw oysters and milk bread for the table, then we all had different entrees, Fish & Chip, Spanish Dorado, Squid & pasta, and iron steak, everything was delicious! For desserts, the guys had ports and ladies shared mango & passion fruit sherbet! It was perfect! Our waiter Stefan is super nice & friendly, he took photos for us, treated us a glass of champagne each for our friends’ anniversary, and a Happy Anniversary dessert plate! We live nearby and take our visitors & friends to this restaurant all the time, everyone is always impressed with the Bay Bridge view, the ceiling tall fish tanks, the tasty and fresh oysters and seafood, and the superb service!

    Unfortunately they were understaffed tonight & service was not up to par. Food was very good. At 1 point 2 managers were trying to help which confused our orders.

    Hello Catherine, We were taking care of guests in fine fashion. We had a wrong salad for your table that we comp'd along with the salad you had ordered. Two complimentary salads for a mis-order does not seem to me to be such a negative thing. Yet, there you go. We thank you for enjoying. best, Rich T.
