Tony's Seafood Restaurant

6 Best Day Trips from San Francisco | Condé Nast Traveler

"A seafood icon for more than 70 years on the  Tomales Bay, Tony’s had already had an impressive run when the Hog Island Oyster Company bought it in 2017. Now, all spruced up after an extensive renovation, and with a region-honoring menu from Chef Matt Shapiro, Tony’s is a storybook fish house. The famous OG Tony’s BBQ oysters are almost mandatory. You will want to sponge up every single drop of the smokey sauce with the house-made bread. If you don’t want to eat the clam chowder alone, share it, but please try it. Unlike other flour-heavy chowders, the famous Hog Island Oyster Company clam chowder is a flour-less, lighter, and more refined version of the quintessential coastal dish. Oysters can be taken to-go, and the delicious, salty-sweet Chipotle Bourbon Butter, and Hog Wash, their signature oyster mignonette, will make every oyster picnic on the Bay a special one." - Ana Kamin, Jenna Scatena
