Editorial Review for Capurro's Restaurant & Bar – by Catherine Wargo
In Short
Bordered by a sunny sidewalk on both sides, the restaurant is well-equipped to host the tourist set in their cavernous dining room for all meals of the day. Large windows let in the sun and breeze or provide a protected view out on the foggy wharf, depending on the day. Jazz music complements the dark wood-paneled walls and the decor invokes the spirit of San Francisco in years past. An open kitchen specializes in seafood and a separate bar area hosts those stopping in for drinks and snacks.

I was first lured into Capurro's as I was walking by and a live jazz band was playing. I love dining with live music! Didn't have time to sit and eat, but kept them in mind. I went back on a first date and loved it. The live band was playing again, and we were immediately and warmly greeted by the restaurant owner. We definitely felt welcome. We were seated in about ten minutes since the house was a little full (sat at the bar while we waited). Waiters were friendly, and food was great. Not to mention the food comes in large portions. A couple of weeks later a friend and I decided to try a place a couple restaurants down.. we were seated outside and were ignored for a full ten minutes, and this place wasn't even busy. Couldn't take it so we ran over to Capurro's and I received the same great service I had the first time-- seated promptly, friendly staff and our order was ready within minutes. Highly recommended if you're out on a date, or like a warm environment, friendly and welcoming staff, some live music, and great seafood.
Pros: Ambience, reasonable prices and great portions, friendly staff, yumym food

I don't know what Mrs snip is talking about. It's obvious she's a bitter person. Or perhaps no restaurants give appropriate service, at least not up to her expectations. I've lived in SF for 3 years now and Capurro's is by far one of the better restaurants on Fishermans Wharf. It's one of the few places that I will actually go out of my way to eat at. I recommend the sand dabs. Our waiter, James was very helpful in choosing them. He said he eats them about twice a week. I figured why not. They were excellent to say the least, paired with risotto and spinach. Yum! We ate there on a monday night and were very surprised to have a live jazz band playing while we ate. 4 Stars!
Pros: Great food music and a wonderful atmosphere
Cons: It's in the middle of tourist town? Oh well...
