Seafood in San Francisco

Tadich's is a great old time "meat and potatoes" place with some fish, but not really a seafood place. What do you mean by informal? If you mean that you do not have to wear a tie but you are willing to pay a sizable price, try either Faralon or Aqua, both in the downtown area--both tough to get reservations at. Excellent seafood. If informal means inexpensive, good luck!

I've never particularly understood the attraction of the Tadich Grill. It's an OK place to go for "decently" (at best) prepared seafood and a "slice of history", but to suggest it's one of the better seafood places in SF seems a stretch to me. The last time I was there, my companion ordered a scallop in sauce dish that I would describe as putrid, not even worthy of Red Lobster. However, my simply prepared Salmon was good (not great), the side of french fries was OK, but curious. The one place that is on my "absolutely must try" list on my next visit to SF is "Oodles", which is Elka Gilmore's new restaurant. I've no idea about where/ price/dress, but one of my most memorable dining experiences in SF was at "Elka's". It's also "Pacific-Rim/Nouvelle Seafood", so it might be a bit adventurous (and expensive) Mike

Killer giant crabs and Helene's Ravioli is one of the best dishes in the city. Very cool room, a little attitude about attire, but upscale casual will not be a problem. Lee
WE had a wonderful meal and a fantastic view at McCormick & Kuleto's. 900 North Point Street. Lots to see and a nice section to walk around. [email removed] Al Ragazzo
