Twenty-six years after opening its doors in San Francisco’s iconic Fisherman’s Wharf neighborhood, Restaurant Gary Danko continues to refine its award-winning combination of classic French cooking, thoughtful and inventive use of local ingredients and personable yet impeccable service. “You don’t just open a great restaurant,” says Chef Gary Danko, “it’s a constant work in progress.”
This commitment to excellence and innovation has earned Restaurant Gary Danko a Grand Award from Wine Spectator as well as a coveted Relais & Châteaux designation. The restaurant has also earned several James Beard Awards, including Best New Restaurant, Best Service and Best Chef - California.
In a warm, enveloping space with flowers and vibrant artworks, an evening at Gary Danko is both intimate and theatrical—a loving nod to an old-world dining experience with its heart thoroughly planted in the new: fresh, locally grown and raised foods drawn from the region’s vast seasonal offerings.
