After outgrowing its wildly successful and ridiculously tiny original location, this pioneering raw fish bar landed across from NOPA on Divisadero in what must now be one of the hardest one-two restaurant punches in the city. The narrow space was done in white and gray for an appropriately cold look, with a small upper level overlooking the kitchen, bare-bulb lighting and racks of shellfish on ice behind the bar. The seafood is as fresh as it gets--all fish served arrived that day, and the seafood-loving staff make sure there are no leftovers--but it's what mad scientist/chef Mike Selvera does…

Great Raw Seafood

by daveman692

Great raw seafood bar though don't try to go with over four people as you'll have a hard time getting a table.

lovely, tiny, delicious seafood prepared mostly raw

by annie_moore

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

inexcusable for San Francisco seafood

by alanagirl

I was really excited to try this place as their menu seemed inventive, but I soon found out that their "inventive" crudo dishes were their way of covering up the poor quality of the fish. Then we received our crab that was served raw. This was unacceptable as crab is one thing that should never be served raw and it was a mistake on their part. How do you overlook such a thing? We left immediately for fear of what the remaining dishes may bring. They obviously do not care about their food and who wants to eat raw fish from people that aren't paying attention?

  • Pros: I got to eat at my favorite Italian place when Bar Crudo couldn't deliver
  • Cons: fish

The Details on Bar Crudo

Know Before You Go:

Parking:

The block of Divisadero between Oak and Fell is a secret parking spot in this otherwise impossible neighborhood.
