    I LOVE the Angler! It is such a great spot in San Francisco. Located along the embarcadero, the ambiance inside and outside the restaurant is great. I have dined here at least times now, and have not had a bad dish. The wine/cocktail menu is great, with a good selection of mocktails as well. Dishes to highlight from 13Jan: embered oyster starter, radicchio salad, hen of the woods mushrooms, skate wing, full chicken (the BBQ sauce it's served with is so good), and of course the sundae and chocolate bar dessert. We tried the frog legs as well as they are always on the menu, and I never order them. The flavor was incredible, and the fry on them was also very nicely done. Worth trying at least once, even if it's not your thing. I already can't wait to go back! Service is always great, very friendly and personable staff to make the dining experience more fun. I would love to see the chili crusted sea bass make it back to the menu, as well as the antelope (venison?) tartare, as that was also delicious.

    My wife and I visited one of our favorite restaurants for a nice dinner with our 25 year old daughter, and had a great evening. The food and drinks were excellent as was the service. We will be back Skates on the Bay!

    Kim was an awesome waiter. I'm a local who entertained some cousins who were visiting from Greece. Everything was spot on. I'm glad I picked this place. It checked all the boxes.

    This was my first experience with Smelly's. It was worth it. The food was great. I'd love to take a date there. I'd go back just for the mac n cheese and garlic green beans. The garlic noodles are awesome too. I love garlic 🧄
