The Anchovy Bar serves up a delightful mix of refined seafood, standout anchovy dishes, and creative desserts in a charming, laid-back atmosphere with side-walk seating.
"Chef Stuart Brioza of the Progress and State Bird Provisions has long sung the praises of anchovies, and now his restaurant the Anchovy Bar is the home to that obsession. Brioza and the team laboriously preserve the fish in-house during the anchovy season, but there are other seafood dishes to explore, such as tinned fish from Spain and Italy, oysters and clams, as well as items like halibut crudo and smoked trout riccioli that cycle onto the menu." - Dianne de Guzman, Justine Jones
"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
