The Old Clam House

Seafood restaurant · Produce Market

@infatuation

"This Bayview seafood spot has been operating in its original location longer than any other restaurant in SF. (It opened in 1861 and has stayed put ever since.) Every meal starts with a shot of complimentary hot clam juice, which primes you for all the sautéed shellfish, seafood pastas, creamy chowders, and other solid fish-forward specials to come. Between the fish-themed silverware, the vodka-infused clam shooters, and the hanging nets, there's no mistaking The Old Clam House for any other place in the city." - julia chen 1, patrick wong, lani conway
