• Filipino • North Beach
Booked 38 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.

    Can't leave the bay area without trying this place out. Serving Filipino food with great sophistication. Sat in the bar as a solo diner. I had pork lumpia, pork bbq skewers, chicken adobo skewers, and trout belly toast. Everything tasted great and their versions showed the rest of the world the potential for Filipino food to go mainstream. Will definitely return on my next trip to the bay.

    Supported Restaurant Week with a lunch visit to Blue Mermaid. Ordered Ahi Tuna Carpaccio and Branzino and my friend requested Warm Shrimp Salad and Market Mushroom Fritters. All were excellent and well presented. Both Carpaccio and Shrimp Salad were refreshing. Shrimp Salad had three whole shrimps which I thought was generous. Branzino was nicely pan seared plated on salsa verde sauce. Loved the curried sauce in the Mushroom Fritters dish. Our server, Hector, was attentive and efficient...asked us several times if we needed anything. Food was tasty and well seasoned. Hostess was warm and friendly. Will be back!
