Tarantino's - San Francisco

Great experience. The food was delicious. Photos of Clam Chowder and Tacos. I couldn't get a picture of the crab cake because my son disappeared. Chowder was creamy with the right amount of pieces. Tacos were tasteful with black spice. Kellner was very attentive and friendly.

We stopped for lunch, not bad, I had fresh oysters, fish tacos and the Clam Chowder in Sauerteigbrot. The sea was fresh, which was great, but the bread was not. The plus was the view of the window seat that made the experience much better. Ask the server to sit on the window.

Went in for the view, and while we waited we got a few good pics. One star because we waited for 15 minutes without being greeted, although at least 2 waiters were sitting at an empty table rolling napkins and 2 hosts walked by us. Finally a gentleman walked past us saying I will be right with you he never came back. Eventually a different gentleman seated us and then left. We waited another 15 minutes before just walking out. No one came to our table in that time, not even for a drink order. The restaraunt was not busy at all. The only good thing about this experience was leaving so we could stumble upon the most amazing place to eat just down the road. Terrible, terrible, terrible. :

Decent bread. Ravioli arrived cold, and looked like it had been thrown onto the plate. Fish Tacos were a little better, except the dough came out completely raw despite asking for it to be grilled, as asked by the staff and it had traces of dirt in it. Seriously? Broken chair for sitting, and a poorly lit bathroom. Taste combinations in the dishes that're just weird, and don't mix well. The food is worse than the street food down at Musee Mechanique, not at all worth the price premium; get yourself a table at the Castagnola's or another nearby restaurant. Staff very obviously do not care about the long term reputation of the restaurant.

I exceeded my expectations! Delicious food and great views!! Clam Chowder was really nice, the blue point oysters were fresh, and the crab was great!
