About this business
In 1969, Al Falchi converted a former San Francisco longshoreman's bar into a restaurant called The Waterfront. A mile from Fisherman's Wharf, and with a view that eclipsed that famous tourist hub, it soon became a favorite of local politicians and business people. And, in time, local and foreign visitors were drawn by its breathtaking Bayscape. Long a cut above its competition, in 1997, Al committed to a multi-million dollar renovation to transform The Waterfont into one of San Francisco's foremost dining destinations. Not ... read more

For romantic dates and family sit downs. We appreciated this restaurant being kid friendly and so understanding when our little one gets a little too excited sometimes. They made sure we were comfortable at all times. Absolutely loved their crab cakes and linguini with clams- never had clams as fresh as this in a very long time. Beautiful view.
Terrible Service – Disappointing Experience We were seated right away since the restaurant was transitioning from lunch to dinner. We told them we only wanted drinks and maybe a couple of appetizers, which they said was fine. Instead of seating us at the bar, they put us in the dining area, and we were the only customers there.

We got there to celebrate my spouse’s birthday right on time for reservation, on a Saturday, nothing else available in town. We were well welcomed, sat down and after 45 min no one came to give us water or take our orders.. total disrespect. We then left the restaurant and got asked why we were leaving. We said we weren’t helped and the front desk said “oh, they must haven’t seen you”. There were over 10 waiters in the salon. I was calling them. We ate 10$ hot dogs in front of the restaurant. Not ok.
Cool view and ambiance. Friendly staffed. Extremely expensive food was pretty bland with a tiny portion size. $14 clam chowders for our group of 7 came out to $148 because of some Sf sales tax and an 18% forced gratituity. Picture was also a large bread bowl and it came in a shallow saucer and bread was extra in a basket. Avoid unless you are going small plate, fancy.
