Restaurants near Pier 39 Fisherman's Wharf

We have dined at House of Prime Rib many times over the years but this one hit especially hard as we came here to remember our beloved Mother, on what would have been her 82nd birthday -- she passed away the week before. She didn't enjoy eating out much, but HOPR was her favorite, so we felt it was appropriate to celebrate her life at her favorite restaurant. What stood out this time was the enthusiasm and genuine care by our server, Alberto. His efficient service and attention to detail (seeking out a rib bone from another cart when he noticed it was not served to my sister's mother-in-law by our chef) provided us an exceptional experience. His authenticity really shined through, not only to us but to surrounding tables. When it came to dessert time, he was only informed by the front desk that we were celebrating a birthday (I noted it in the comments section about my mother's passing but he was not informed) so he arrived at our table holding behind his back, a couple of scoops of sherbert with a candle and delicately asked "I hear we have a birthday here". After telling him about the special occasion, he was completely touched by the story, empathetically reaching out his hand to comfort me. He lit the candle and offered us a moment of silence. Finally, HOPR is always a solid choice, but the level of service is what stands out and will always be remembered. And for that, we will request Alberto as our server from now on. Thank you Alberto for your outstanding service and kindness. ❤️

My cousin and were visiting from Columbia, South Carolina. It was a birthday trip. We both were very impressed with the food and the service. Ty was our server. He was new to the job, but when asked something that he didn’t know, he made sure to find out for us. He was very personable as well as professional. The restaurant was bright and pleasantly decorated. We enjoyed looking at all the pictures that were hanging. It was a great experience for us. We give the restaurant and service an A+. Thank you!

We have always liked Kokkari, but a few months ago our server was Heather, and we were lucky enough to have her again this lunch. She is a total delight, and she makes the dining experience even more special. It was a birthday lunch, and it was a perfect place to celebrate. Thank you Kokkari-and Heather. Barbara T.
