The food is great, so fresh, I had the mix grill which was outstanding and my friend had the sea bass, which she said was the best she has ever tasted. After reading a few of the reviews on City Search, we asked for Christopher to be our food server and we were so happy we did. The service was some of the best I've ever experienced, We highly recommended you ask to have him be your server!

Ok, I have read the terrible reviews people wrote about Alioto's and I am SHOCKED!!! I live on the East Coast and every single time I make it out to San Fran or the vicinity I make a special trip to Alioto's. The food is so good, the wine list is great, the service is amazing. The view is spectacular and the seats are cozy and inviting. I really can't fathom having a bad experience here. I always go for dinner and I don't feel like it is touristy and I have never ever had a problem with my bill. In fact, once when I went, I was chatting with the maitre d and this and that for about 10 minutes before sitting down and he ended up giving our table some free appetizers because, I don't even know why, I guess just because he liked us! Please give this place a try, you will not regret it.

When you walk in the clean and refined decor immediately portends the simple elegant food that follows. The chefs use of Japanese ingredients and techniques lends a unique twist the the standard California nuevo style. The tuna tartare is a poetic interpretation of a traditional sushi roll, replacing the salty sweet of the soy with decadent shaved foie gras. Great for a romantic night out.
Pros: Tuna tartare, black cod
Cons: Desserts

We tried Anchor & Hope recently, hoping for a really good fish restaurant. The food was fine but definitely not worth the new-restaurant-hype and I don't think we'd go back. It may be a great raw bar but we're not into sliders. The appetizers were good, not great, and we shared a whole roasted fish for our main course. When it arrived, the head had been removed, probably before it was even cooked. I've never been to a restaurant that serves a whole fish but serves it without the head. I asked the waitress about this and she said they'd received feedback that people prefered it without the head. Maybe they should server tuna out of a can too. Sadly, the fish was quite bland. I'm not loking for something spicy but I've had lots of really great roasted fish that is delicate yet flavorful. This was delicate but flavorless.
Pros: It's new, lively atmosphere
Cons: Food wasn't anything special

After arriving in San Francisco for the first time I took the subway to 16th and Mission and went straight to this place for dinner. Very nice atmosphere and friendly staff made me feel welcome immediately. I chose the Cioppino which was one of the nights specials and couldn't have been happier with the food or the price (worth every penny). The cioppino was perfect and possibly the best I ever had (don't tell my wife). I highly recommend this place to anyone who appreciates good (sea)food in an honest welcoming atmosphere.
Pros: Service, Food, Atmosphere
Cons: I live on the east coast :(

Alright, I dont want this to be a long story but I just moved to the neighborhood a couple weeks ago and well, it's not easy. I was just passing by the other night and saw they were playing some type of indie films later on in the evening on Monday and decided to stop in. The staff was great, the food was superb and the people were friendly. I just want to say thanks and I'll definately be seeing you guys soon...

Pros: Good Crowd, Food, Wait Time

If you are in the mood for sheer luxury, head to this Financial District gem and treat yourself to some of the most amazing seafood in the country. Chef-owner Michael Mina gets rave reviews from local and national press for his perfect execution and artistry. The signature appetizer, Ahi Tuna paired with Foie Gras, may be an unusual combination, but you will savor every bite. Although the menu changes, each of the fresh fish dishes are sure to please even the most discerning gourmet. Do not come here on a budget though.

met some friends here who swear by this place & had to agree, the seafood, prepared raw, was imaginative, delicious, fresh tasting & atomsphere was funky, vibey & welcoming (though not for the claustrophobic). recommended for fish lovers who prefer theirs raw.
Pros: fun, upbeat, everything we ate was delicious & left us wanting more (not a problem for us)
Cons: very tight - not for the claustrophobic type - long wait, with reservations, on street
