I saw fresh oysters on the half shell being served but you have to share your mignonette with your neighbor from a shared communal dish on the counter. Delivery. The seafood was delicious. Well, a friend and I happened to be on Polk Street this week and lo and behold, there was no wait at 12 noon on Tuesday so we decided we should give it a try. The intimate space and family atmosphere make this a must-visit for any seafood lover in San Francisco. We waited for an hour but ended up eating for 21/2hrs. Pickup.

The place is so run down and dirty that I was seriously tempted to bolt as soon as I sat on a dinky rickety and very uncomfortable stool that was crammed up next to a bunch of other rickety stools against a narrow counter with no room for my legs. I'm aware that sounds deeply unappetising, but its actually delicious. Our bill came to $95.00 for one shared salad, one shared small cup of chowder, one sea urchin and beer and a glass of wine.
