Seal the Deal Meals: The Haute 5 Places to Power Lunch in San Francisco

Waterbar

If you plan to dine here for a power lunch, don’t get your hopes set on either of the two booths facing the bridge (Nos. 12 and 13 to be precise) because, again, those belong to one of our favorite former public officials, Willie Brown. Those in the know describe Waterbar as a place that screams power lunch, often confessing that just the mere mention of closing the deal at here adds instant credibility to any high-powered wranglings. From restaurateur Pat Kuletto, it makes perfect sense why most reviews of this San Franciscan seafood eatery start out with descriptions of the décor.

Waterbar is located at 399 The Embarcadero (Folsom St.); 415.284.9922
