Anchor Oyster Bar & Seafood Market Restaurant Review

: Anchor Oyster Bar & Seafood Market lures locals with a simple bait-and-hook: sparkling fresh oysters at the ready when the hankering hits. It's simple, casual and affordable, which means one need not relegate those oyster cravings to those times when one hits a fine restaurant on a big splurge. Locals go for the lunchtime special open-face sandwich of crab, shrimp and cheese. For dinner, try the crab burger---pulled crab slathered in tartar sauce and sandwiched inside a soft sesame seed bun. Cozy up to one of the few chilly steel tables, or sit along the Formica counter. The tiny Castro storefront is dressed up in blue and white, reminiscent of East Coast seafood bars.
