This is not the most attractive spot in town, but the teriyaki here is really good, and the price is really low. It’s a little difficult to find, but not so much that it’s packed most every day during the week for lunch. They’re not opened for dinner or on weekends, sorry; so make sure you stop by when you’re strolling down Market between Union Square and the Ferry Building.
Go to First and Market; then head south a half block and turn right. It’s nearly on the corner of 1st and Stevenson.
Here’s another bike ride you might love. It’s really not a difficult ride and is more about the fun of it all, getting out on the water, having a little lunch and getting some exercise … and maybe a walk on the beach as a bonus.
Start by taking the ferry to Angel Island, which usually leaves from the Ferry Building, but check schedules to make sure. The Website is also a bit confusing; so be sure and double check everything … schedules change too.
If you need to rent a bike, it’ll be easier to make your way down to Pier 41, where you can nearly always catch the ferry to Angel Island, and there’s a Blazing Saddles bike rental shop there, OR, you can wait until you get to Angel Island and rent a bike there. I didn’t compare prices; so check to make sure. Then, you can board the ferry wherever it’s convenient and just have fun without the baggage of the bike … there and back.
If you want a truly quirky way to get around the island, try a Segway. We opted for a bike ride this trip, but next time. I’ll give the Segway a shot. It looks like fun.
AND, at the end of the ride, stop by Il Fornaio on Battery Street for an Affogado (espresso poured over ice cream and topped with whipped cream). YUM!
Not everyone wants to participate in a race, but marathons are popular here, for sure. I love to watch the people on the sidelines encourage the runners. It’s just great, doncha think?
