Set in the very heart of San Francisco?s waterfront renaissance, Waterbar combines panoramic, picture-perfect bay views, exceptional design, and a menu of the finest fish and seafood from local and international waters to create a dining experience like none other in San Francisco. ?Our goal for Waterbar is to serve straightforward, clean and elegant food, letting the fresh ingredients guide the dish and allowing the food to speak for itself,? said Franz, renowned for his seafood cuisine at Farallon and, prior to that, his celebrated tenure as chef at Stars. ?My hope is that Waterbar becomes the place that comes to mind when thinking of where to dine on the freshest of fish, with the most magnificent views, in the most remarkable atmosphere.
