This is a classic S.F. seafood lunch spot. Be sure you know what it is...it is a casual lunch counter (a 5-star one at that). It has the freshest and highest quality of any place in the city. You sit at a long counter and get clam chowder, shrimp and seafood cocktails, lobster, crab...you name it. Grab an Anchor Steam and choose from the wide assortment of seafood specialities. It is run by a family of brother and cousins, just like their grandfathers and fathers ran it 50+ years ago. It is worth the wait, the staff is very friendly and helpful. You can also order ahead and serve it at home for a dinner party and/or snack for the Big Game. You can also walk up and get an order to go. Don't expect a gourmet atmosphere, but the food is as good and fresh as anyplace in the world. Enjoy!!
