Whenever I’m in SF I always come here for great food and cocktails with a waterfront view. I always get the Acme bread, appetizers and oysters. The dining experience is always stellar and the place is always packed with people for a good reason.

My siblings and I come to this place mainly for the daily happy hour raw oysters special. It used to be $1.05 each. Now it’s gone up to $1.55 but still a good deal compared to other places with happy hour specials. We also ordered lobster rolls, they were not bad. What I like are the fries that came with the lobster rolls, they had crispy skins and that’s how I like my fries. There were four of us, we ordered two rolls to share. The wait staff cut them in halves served them on separate plates with extra fries in each plate. Super nice of them. They were very friendly and attentive, but not intrusively so.

It was the best fish dish I have ever had. The branzino was cooked to perfection. Geoduck was excellent and so well prepared and presented. A really extensive wine list. The mud pie was superb and the desert wine excellent. Highly recommend the resturant. Service was excellent

Had a very mediocre experience. The service was poor, we waited 20min after being seated for our order to be taken, then when the food came out….the order was wrong. If you only have one job to do……

Great place to take a date! Friendly atmosphere beautiful views of the Bay Bridge. It was a little rainy the day we visited. There is patio dinning I bet that is a great experience. Had a great lunch love the fact you can buy Oyster individually. Food was reasonable priced cocktails were a little pricey. However, will definitely come back I want to see the Bridge at night.

I recently dined at Waterbar in SF, and it was a delightful experience overall. The restaurant offers a fantastic seafood menu, and I had the pleasure of trying their Oysters, Seafood Risotto for Two, and Oak Grilled Branzino for Two.
