"A San Francisco restaurant that includes Tsar Nicoulai caviar in its offerings." - ByBecky Duffett
"A San Francisco favorite, The Anchovy Bar, has reopened after temporary renovations. Known for its local anchovy toast, reservations are available again." - Dianne de Guzman
"You go to The Anchovy Bar in the Fillmore to eat your body weight in tinned fish that are served with sides of toasty bread and tomato vinaigrette. The laidback spot, complete with bar seating and a cozy parklet, is where you’ll find couples and groups of friends going wild over a mostly-seafood menu of dishes. There are seafood stews loaded with every possible creature that swims, broiled oysters with an umami-packed date-bacon sambal butter, and smoked mussels spiced up with horseradish crème fraîche.

"Anchovy Bar offers a menu heavily featuring local anchovy season items, such as anchovy pintxos, local anchovy toast, and 'anchovies in purgatory' with chile oil, yuzu kosho, sansho togarashi, and fermented chile turnips." - Dianne de Guzman
"Anchovies are unsurprisingly the star at this upscale seafood restaurant from the State Bird Provisions people. But don’t overlook the oysters. At this Fillmore spot, you can get them raw (even as an optional mixed chef’s choice dozen), or go for the broiled “Western Addition” that’s fantastic. They come drenched in a date-bacon sambal butter we want to put on everything. Definitely get them on your table. " - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez
