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.

My son and I had early dinner 5/29, no waiting to be seated, excellent service, we were asked continuously if we needed anything, we had the best clam chowder I have ever had, my son and I shared a crab burger and a bowl of cioppino, it was so good that we hated not been able to take the left overs, we had a plane to catch in San Jose in a couple of hours. My son and I can't wait to fly again to the Bay area to enjoy dinner again at the Anchor Oyster Bar

The best seafood I have eaten in SF. The environment is romantically old school. The staff could not be nicer or more helpful. Would go there every night.

I've been here several times and it's just a really nice place. The food is good, the oysters are fresh, they care that you are there! This is the type of place I would rather spend my money in than some place like Cheesecake Factory, this place is sincere about what they do!!! You won't be disappointed!!
