With some of the freshest seafood in the U.S.A. and an amazing repertoire of culinary icons, great seafood restaurants are not difficult to find in the city by the bay. Here is a list of a few of San Francisco’s favorites.

Swan Oyster Depot
San Francisco residents are pretty split between Hog Island and Swan Oyster as their favoite oyster house, so we decided to include them both. This oyster bar is a bit more casual, but nonetheless, serves up amazing fresh oysters and seafood dishes.
