Tasting TableMay 4, 2012Filled with fresh lobster meat, their roll is simple, clean and classic. A delicious contender in our 2012 Lobster Roll Rumble: Read more
Megan AllisonDecember 10, 2017Good for boozy business lunches. Legitimately good food. That lobster roll, tho.
Dane HarriganJune 29, 2013Great food! The waiter suggested 2 drinks that were perfect. And the outdoor seating is really nice
Stephanie PhamOctober 30, 2012My friends and I always come here for the fresh oysters. So good! And I love that I get 10% cashback since I'm on MOGL. http://mo.gl/sffour
Cate CauguiranApril 22, 2013Happy hour starts at 11:30AM for all your early AM shifters like me. Plus $1 Oysters? Yes, please.
Filip MaresMay 2, 2013Everyone talks a about the oysters. I loved the scallops. by lime and avocado.
Lauren GrimmJanuary 19, 2017Oysters and Raw Bar cannot be beat. Avoid the spare ribs at this seafood restaurant; it isn't their specialty.
MiraJune 18, 2011Oysters are $1 until 6pm during happy hour daily. Great place to go and enjoy the views of the bay. I dare you to can the runners!
Best for the $1 oysters everyday from 11 am to 6 pm and on Sunday brunch the $20 Proseco bottle!
truffle grilled cheese & tomato soup lunch combo at the bar is delicious and inexpensive (as compared to a full sit down meal)
Leigh ReinertDecember 3, 2013If you like Bloody Mary's get the Ultimate! Ketel One, smoked bacon and JUMBO prawns!
BordeauxWinesJuly 16, 2012Do you feel like seafood or grilled meat? Anyways, the view on the Bay Bridge is breathtaking!
Dina SJune 2, 2013Service is surprisingly slow. Good oyster happy hour. Happy Hour White wine is tasteless, but does the job. Despite the confusing sign, outside area is "self-seating", so grab a table if there is one!
DanielleJune 20, 2015$1.05 oysters (.05 cents goes to an oyster non-profit), great view, decent drinks.
Alexa SJune 16, 2010Amazing food and amazing service all with the backdrop of the Bay Bridge and the Embarcadero. Do get the clam chowder and bay chips together!
Michael DavidsonApril 14, 2015Two dollar oyster Tuesday with a view and a sexy staff. Need I say more?
Maddie MaeJune 3, 2013Portion size varies quite a bit with their entrees. Don't be shy to ask your server!
Valerie MeyerJanuary 27, 2013Love the aquarium columns, stunning view, and $1 featured oyster before $6pm!!
Try the Halibut - #kvpinmybelly : #Easter dinner with my family. Amazing, fresh #fish in #SF.- Michael OzawaJune 25, 2013The restaurant is open from 11:30 a.m. Oysters are $1 each until 5:30 p.m. now.
