Dining room at Hog Island Oyster Company, San Francisco, CAOyster enthusiasts flock to the Hog Island Oyster Company's lively bar and tables in the San Francisco Ferry Building for delectable offerings and a pristine view of the sparkling bay, green East Bay hills, and bountiful sky. The company's sustainably raised, freshly-shucked Sweetwaters are worth experiencing alone or with a variety of Atlantic and West Coast oysters such as tiny Kumamotos or rich Belons. Signature Hog Wash is a twist on traditional mignonette with the addition of cilantro and rice wine vinegar. For those averse to raw oysters, Sweetwaters also come baked with a sweet-tart beurre blanc, barbecued, showered with shallots and smoky bacon Casino-style, or in a hearty stew. Diners can also opt for creamy Manila clam chowder for a satisfying lunch. The amiable staff is more than happy to direct diners through the shellfish-focused wine list and many locally brewed beers on tap. Don't miss $1 oysters and $3.50 beers at the oyster happy hour on Mondays and Thursdays from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.
