• Filipino • North Beach
Booked 39 times today
Abacá is an airy, atelier-style restaurant with a cool outdoor terrace, whipping up Filipino-Californian cuisine with flair in Fisherman's Wharf. It's the bricks-and-mortar spin off of chef Francis Ang's pop-up Pinoy Heritage. The lively menu is split up into barbecue sticks, noodles and rice, and small to big plates, but its far more nuanced than just that. Flavourful dishes pull from family recipes and are glazed with modern and heritage technique to result in a vibrancy that's hard to come by. It's grounded by local produce. Smoked Bay scallops lead in the seafood pancit, heirloom tomatoes top homemade tinapay bread, chicken skin is glazed in an adobe before hitting the grill and guinea fowl comes slathered with peanut sauce. A truncated list of creative Southeast Asian libations bring it full circle – if you're on the terrace, cool off with the Baguio breeze slushy – a dreamy mix of pandan-infused vodka, coconut and strawberry.

Kokkari (pronounced “Ko-Kar-ee”) is a small fishing village located on the islands of Samos in the Aegean Sea, whose name is derived from the small onions that were once produced in the nearby fields. Its fertile soil and Mediterranean climate translated into an abundance of fresh produce as well as treasured seafood and game. Legend tells that Kokkari is the site where Orion, a mighty hunter and a young man of gigantic stature and great beauty, fell in love with the daughter of the king of Chios. For the love of her, Orion forged the island for wild game and seafood to prepare elaborate banquets in celebration of their love. Today, we hope you will enjoy your own celebration as you dine at Kokkari Estiatorio on food “fit for the Gods” prepared with an Aegean palate and the style of innovative California fare.

    Excellent service and food! The seafood is so fresh and the atmosphere so nice, you can’t go wrong with a special meal here. Close to Fishermen’s Wharf but tucked away in its own pier makes this long-standing establishment a locals, as opposed to a tourist, spot

    Finally a top notch experience. I’ve been there many times before with tourists and others but this was a date, a real date. The Mai Tais were delicious as was the poke appetizer. Both the basil chicken and salmon were very good, the portion size generous. The entertainment was old time tiki bar. The service was efficient, professional and friendly. The setting? There’s only one Tonga Room, the one that we old time San Franciscans can appreciate.

    Seated quickly at a lovely table. Service was friendly and efficient. Food was spectacular. I love the simple elegant Greek salad . The lamb rib lets are cooked to perfect tenderness and simple flavors without being overpowered with herbs. Look forward to next time

    Our waiter and every single person who served our dishes were wonderful. The service, from when we were greeted, all the way to the end—we were treated with such care and fun! We were in town to celebrate a reunion, a baby, and a birthday. We had the tasting menu with the kaldereta and cocktails/mocktails. All were fantastic. Because I am pregnant, the staff made sure I was accommodated and still experienced flavorful dishes. Everything was superb and, as a native Filipino, I was pleased as to how our heritage was honored. We will be back.
