About this business

This restaurant in the heart of the Castro serves some of the freshest seafood away from Fisherman's Wharf. The service and decor of the restaurant are simple. Diners order at the counter and seat themselves at small tin tables and chairs. All the seafood is fresh from the ocean, including the steamed crab and steamed mussels. There tends to be a large lunch contingent, so dining during off hours is recommended. You can also buy fresh seafood here to make your own culinary creations at home.

Well the food is good. Like real good. If that is all that matters, you will be happy. The process of getting seated, well it is a it is. But the service really pressures you to order and eat as fast as possible so that the places can be used as often as possible. Understandable, yes, but not the feeling I am looking for.

LOVE this place. For those of you complaining about the service, thank you!!! Go complain elsewhere. These peeps that work here have been here forever, are busy from open to close, and don't take crap. I love their demeanor. And they're actually very lovely people. The food,...well,...just delicious.
