Marina, San Francisco · restaurant
Counter seating, a cozy dining room, and a strip of sidewalk tables—Popi's Oysterette keeps the footprint small and the seafood focused. The daily oyster selection arrives with lime-black pepper mignonette and yuzu tobiko; grilled versions come either Milli (jalapeño, garlic, lemon, cilantro) or Vanilli (cream, pernod, spinach, parmesan breadcrumbs). They also carry local white sturgeon caviar from Tsar Nicoulai, if you're feeling fancy.
