Waterfront Restaurant

Since 1969, Waterfront Restaurant has been a cornerstone of San Francisco's culinary scene, offering an unparalleled dining experience rooted in quality and tradition. Our commitment to sustainable seafood and farm-to-table ingredients reflects our deep connection to Northern California's agricultural abundance. With a staff of 80, including 20 team members with over a decade of tenure, we combine institutional knowledge with modern culinary innovation. The 1997 multi-million-dollar renovation elevated our historic 1894 building into a premier waterfront destination while preserving its authentic character. Our menu showcases Snake River Farm Wagyu and ever-changing local catches, complemented by a curated wine list and signature cocktails.

The restaurant's three-story structure accommodates diverse dining experiences, from casual lunches to private events for up to 350 guests. Our waterfront location on Pier 7 provides breathtaking views of San Francisco Bay and Treasure Island, creating a setting that has attracted dignitaries, celebrities, and discerning diners for generations. We maintain accessibility through flexible reservation options and walk-in availability, ensuring our culinary excellence remains approachable. The combination of historic ambiance, professional service, and ingredient-driven cuisine continues to define our reputation as a San Francisco institution.
