The Slanted Door - San Francisc

Will this place ever open again? Why is the owner brain dead?

Delicious food and so beautiful restaurant so beautiful place

Fantastic Vietnamese restaurant located in the Ferry Building. Lots of tables, many with some view of the waterfront.

If you want good Vietnamese food without being gouged go to San Jose or ask a Vietnamese friend to invite you over to their mother 's home for dinner. Any Vietnamese person when asked where is the best food? , they will always respond at my mother 's house. Not saying this isn 't good but it 's extremely overpriced. Vietnamese food is NOT fancy. It 's street/home food. The film Always Be My Maybe highlights this and so does Anthony Bourdain (the few non-viet who has a deep understanding of the food). Look at all of the photos...see how unspecial it all looks and how it looks like every other photo at every other vietnamese restaurant. If you want elevated Vietnamese food then go to Crustacean or any of the House of An locations. There you get your money 's worth because you are getting seafood and their dishes are aesthetically pleasing unlike the basic dishes here. And yes, my mother makes the best dishes that looks better than here.

Came here with my wife a while ago. I am sorry to see that it is closed. I am hoping that it opens up in the near future. Lots of good memories here and amazing good food. Maybe we will see them open in the coming days. The ambience and location are to die for
