Get a booth facing the bay, order the shaking beef and a singapore sling, go home happy. Don't neglect a Vietnamese coffee for dessert (condensed milk + strong coffee)

The best food I've had in San Francisco, period. Family style adds something interesting. Extremely creative dishes. Great service!

Had the papaya salad and SD spring rolls, both light and yum! Good Moscow mule

You will need a reservation for the main dining area but the bar area is "sit right down", same menu. Get the crab and cellophane noodles!

Everything is great including spring rolls, ribs, steak

Some of the best meals that Corinne and I have had in San Francisco have been here. Just might be worth to extend your stay to lunch or dinner at the Slanted Door! Don't miss the chicken clay pot!

Great food and amazing fast service even during very busy periods. Very pricey and definitely not anywhere near Vietnamese but absolutely delicious.
Rebecca GobersteinMarch 19, 2012
Great place for visitors, as this place has excellent food, right on the Bay. The shaking beef is delicious, but ask your waiter for recommendations - too many to list here.
Heléne BjörkmanJuly 22, 2015
I absolutely love this place. Especially sitting by the bar and enjoying a diversity of dishes and excellent sea food

Charles Phan broke the mold for modern Vietnamese food when he opened the original, and the current incarnation remains the standard-bearer of ingredient-driven Asian cuisine. [Eater 38 Member] Read more

Excellent food and service, always. It's a must stop whenever in San Francisco!
MelissaMay 26, 2013
Overall, awesome restaurant. Must go in when in SF. Spring rolls, chicken in clay pot, and cellophane noodles are all excellent.

Bergamot port cubbler! Pork ribs! Jazmine rice ! And cheesecake! Absolutely delicious!!!!!

Amazing view of the Bay Bridge. Arrive early and watch the ferries go in and out of the harbor. If you're adventurous, take the ferry to Sausalito.
Lauren PresserMarch 20, 2013
DELICIOUS! I'm so full, it's a wonder my fat fingers can even write this tip. Must orders: cellophane noodles, shaking beef / donuts, snickerdoodle ice cream sandwiches.
Nick FruendtOctober 1, 2014
Delicious food, great cocktails, nice view, this place has it all! Next time I go I want to try the cotton candy.
Sandra PecisNovember 18, 2010
One of the best restaurants in SF. For appetizers we ordered the Dumplings, the Yellow Tail sashimi, the Oysters and the Tuna Tartare and the Crispy Vegetarian Imperial Rolls. Unforgetable!
Steve GarlandJune 3, 2011
We recently made our first visit to The Slanted Door. We could only get very early reservations for lunch, which worked out just fine. It was quiet, leisurely paced, and our waiter was perfectly atten

The delicious fusion-Vietnamese cuisine is outdone only by the stunning Bay Bridge views. Try the Manila clams or beef carpaccio
Mark AddisAugust 30, 2013
Wow...what awesome food. I could have ate a pound of the cellophane noodles. And they have absinthe on the desert drink menu!
Amanda GradyJuly 29, 2017
Shaking beef and branzino were standouts, but everything was delicious
ShelbyAugust 1, 2012
Ate here about a year ago and the food was great! It was a Bridal Shower so most was pre-ordered. Great food, atmosphere, and breathtaking views.
Kim FujiwaraDecember 6, 2013
Try the wood oven roasted manila clams - Yumdeliecious! Manila clams, crispy pork belly, jalapeño and spices make this a onolicious dish!
Sarah BayNovember 22, 2014
Friendly staff and quick serving! Tried the noodle crab - although a decent meal I wasn't quite blown away.. The great views took care of that however.
Ricky SherrillDecember 7, 2014
The noodles, "shaking beef", and the sticky rice with sweet potatoes are a great. You must try this place.
Mital JoshiApril 8, 2013
Fabulous staff, food and wine! If you're planning on coming here, book in advance. This place gets booked up pretty quick!
Caroline FaureAugust 10, 2014
Cellophane noodles with Dungeness crab are a must!! Pork ribs in hoisin sauce are good to share as an appetizer

Did you know that Slanted Door Chef Charles Phan is opening a new San Francisco restaurant - Hard Water- in March 2013? Read more
Laura BarnesMarch 30, 2016
Heartbeat of food in San Fran. Ferry building location makes it vibrate with the sights and smells of Cali food.
Dalton DMarch 3, 2013
Cellophane noodles, shrimp spring rolls, oysters and cartelized prawns all rock. The spare rib was just ok compared to the rest - which was outstanding
BravoDecember 2, 2010
One of my favorite restaurants in San Francisco. Offers classic and contemporary Vietnamese food. Big high energy room. A must see when in SF. -Rick Tramonto, Top Chef
Juliet CastilloDecember 6, 2015
Can't go wrong at this place. Everything is delicious. My personal fave is the Claypot Chicken.
heatJuly 19, 2013
The food is consistently good, and perfect for a big group to share multiple dishes. The rolls are yummy, and I always order the Shaking Beef.
Wilson Favre-DelerueApril 12, 2016
Vietnamese dishes with a touch of American modernity. Certainly good but doesn't match the authenticity of Vietnam's stalls, markets and eateries.
Ashley RoseMarch 17, 2015
get there early to avoid the wait (don't worry- packed by 6). And try one of the veggie sides!
William ScanlanDecember 30, 2012
Always a great meal!! Sit at the bar and have Ricardo or Miguel take care of you!!! Nice nice guys who make a mean cocktail.
Grace S.July 25, 2012
priority order: Clay pot chicken, Cellophane noodles, Shaken beef, Crispy imperial roll, Crispy green beans, Prawns &cocktail=ginger limeade
Jeanne SperanzaJuly 8, 2016
I had the squid and it was really good. Nice flavors. The vodka limeade was extra good.
Amy BDecember 9, 2015
Reservation a must for dinner but you can squeeze in lunch. Plenty to share.
Kyle MooreAugust 29, 2014
Everything is good, especially the BBQ ribs. Eclectic wine choices too...ask for recommendations.

Cellophane noddles with crabs, chanterelle and Brussels sprouts, and Manila clams. Bermejo wine...
Rajarshi ChakrabortyMay 7, 2017
Awesome view and great food, I tried the Dungeness crab and shaked beef,out of the world
Laura CNovember 17, 2011
THE place for Vietnamese. The emphasis is on fresh and organic ingredients. For a quick fix, you can also pick up food to-go at their counter in the Ferry Building marketplace.
Simon TanApril 2, 2018
Grilled pork belly, dungeness crab salad, shaken beef steaks, any dessert.

The Slanted Door is one of my favorite places to dine in San Francisco. How gorgeous is the view? Love the cellophane noodles with crab. It's a must for tourist & LOCALS.

Thai Basil ice cream is an excellent mix of spice with mild sweetness. The Thai basil has a little mint quality to it that works!
Mark NannaJune 19, 2012
In a town full of great food, a HUGE standout! Also, ask for Bill as a server if possible,total PRO! Any server could take a note from his "book".
Caroline CaswellJanuary 20, 2016
Crab noodles and spring rolls are delicious, and you can't miss with the shaking beef!

The move here, one I make on practically every San Francisco visit, is the late lunch c. 215pm when the bar has cleared out and the sunlight shifts. Chicken claypot did the trick this time. Next?
