Best place to eat on the Wharf 9/9/2006

My family came into the city for the weekend and I was forced to play tour guide. Our fist stop was fishermans wharf. After walking by at least three million restaurants and souvenir shops and one bum jumping out of a bussh and scaring people, we were all getting hungry. As we were at the end of the wharf about to hop on the cable car we passed one last restaurant, the live music playing in the bar pulled us in for a happy hour drink break. After sucking down one of their specialty cocktails my family and I decided to stay for dinner. The four of us were sat in a nice big leather booth and our server was promptly there to get us started. After looking at the menu for a few minutes we were all having trouble deciding between several items. The server highlighted some of the signature dishes to make our decision easier. We settled on crab cakes and calamari to start. The crab cakes were great and full of crab. The calamari had the best breading that I have ever had. My dad had the halibut that was wrapped in proscuitto, the ""chefs specialty"" we were told, and it was awesome!! nice and juicy with the crispy proscuitto crust. My mom had the chicken that was stuffed, I am not really sure with what because she ate it all before I could get a bite. I had the lamb that was done on the charbroiler, best lamb I have ever had, nice and smokey from the mesquite and perfectly cooked. We finished off the meal with some irish coffees and house made flourless chocolate cake. So after wasting a perfectly good weekend showing the family around at least I found a good new restaurant to go to. Pros: Food, Service, Drinks more
