Excellent Choice
My wife and I visited Swan last year when we were in San Fran. We went early for lunch one day, so we got seats right away. The food was great, and the service was even better. My wife had numerous questions about fish choices, and the guy serving us took the time to answer those questions fully. We must go back to San Fran this April and we fully intend to go back to Swan.

worth the wait
Yes, the line is long. Yes, it is worth it. Some of the best seafood I've had. Clean and simple flavors, unpretentious.

great fresh seafood, yet . . .
My opinion of Swans is ambiguous, for whilst I thoroughly enjoy the freshly shucked oysters and the clam chowder, and the fact that it is a slice of a bygone SF in its style and in its courteous yet matter-of-fact staff, I nevertheless don't bother with going anymore, for it cannot cope with the capacity of its patrons, so, anymore, one must wait endlessly for a meal, which, therefore, renders the pleasure of the meal diminished, and makes one feel (also) gouged by their prices after waiting so long. Suppose if one is prone to alcoholic pleasures then getting juiced while waiting minimises the prolonged delay, but that is not for me; I like my senses to be fully aware of a meal that I am enjoying. Wish they would relocate as it is (unfortunately) a necessity given the overpopulation of the times and the word-of-mouth accolades that has incresed their customer volume beyond that which their establishment can now adequately contend with.

Old School Charm
Everything about Swan is awesome! I love how nothing has changed in all the years it's been open! I never mind standing in line, as long as I have a beer in hand! Ask for the sashimi! It's amazing, and you can get it with soy sauce or olive oil. Get the olive oil with fresh ground pepper and onion! The oil sounds strange, but you'll never want soy sauce again! Its not on the menu, but it's definitely their best menu item!

My favorite place in SF
I grew up in SF and moved to Pittsburg CA, so I try to make an attempt to go at least once every couple of months. This is one of my favorite places. I like it because it hasn't changed. Same old ugly chairs, same menu, but the fish is just sooooo fresh, DAILY! And the guys are soooo informative and explain where the shellfish comes from. What taste you will be, it's just the best. I just wish they were opened later, that hasn't changed as well. But I loved it when I was a little girl and as an adult I have my kids hooked on it too. BLESS YOU SWANS!
