    Great spot to hang out on the patio and enjoy a beer and oysters on a sunny day. You can also get here by boat, there is usualy enough dock space and its free!

    It's starting to be a habit especially on beautiful warm days on San Francisco. Had a late lunch meeting and enjoyed the sun. We has fish and chips and a Cobb salad. Both were yummy.

    non-alcoholic beer can only be found at the inside bar, just remember that before waiting in line outside. but also question how much you're really getting out of that diet brew.

    The benedicts are great, and come with nicely fried potatoes. But keep in mind that you're paying for the views, not the food.

    best before it gets dark, as it becomes more 'bar' when the sun goes down. eat outside near the water with the kids and watch the boats + birds.

    Have the huevos rancheros the way the server likes it-with chorizo and avocado but go ahead and ask for a few tortilla chips for crunch.
