One of our favorite regular restaurants, the food is consistently excellent, fresh, interesting and affordable, and the atmosphere is calming and pleasant. We often take friends here from out of town because it is so reliable. Also, the staff and owner are warm and friendly-- it feels like they love what they do; they actually serve the owner's mom's coconut cream pie recipe for dessert-- how cool is that? (it's great, too). The seafood is delicious (and sustainable, so you don't feel guilty-- the chowder is crazy good) and for non fish-eaters, the burger is also fantastic. Also, you can get in without a fuss much of the time which, for the quality of the food and experience, is unusual. In short, we are SF foodie people and we highly recommend this place to all of our friends.
Pros: great sustainable seafood, fresh, affordable, quiet and charming, chowder, sole, swordfish, and tuna tartare are favorites
Cons: parking not so good, but it still worth the circling...
