I get invited to some pretty cool things because of my job. One of the "cool things" was a thank-you dinner for the San Francisco Little League's coaches and volunteers. Not wanting to go alone, since I only knew the president of the SFLL, I took my boss, who decided to wear a pink shirt, since he knew he would probably be the only gay male there. We pulled up to the St. Francis Yacht Club after winding through the Presidio. There was plenty of parking, and even though it was mostly overcast, the dusk light made Crissy Field and the Golden Gate Bridge shimmer. Upon entering, it felt like an old-school members-only club with tall wooden double doors, and then plush green carpeting. We were in the Golden Gate Room, which was to the left of the entrance, and the doors opened out to the patio directly overlooking Crissy Field. With the hardwood floors, high ceilings and great view, this would be an ideal location for a wedding reception. "Vicky, this is the PERFECT kind of event and place for a single girl to meet guys!" "Um, these guys are ALL DADS and they're ALL MARRIED." "Oh. Well maybe there'll be at least one cute one." "I think at this point, I'd be better off as your wing-woman." "Am I the only guy wearing pink? YES I AM." "Well, there's a guy wearing salmon." "That's it. I'm going to pretend to be your date, because if one more old guy checks you out, I'm going to be sick." "I don't think you'll be able to pull that off, because you're wearing a pink shirt. Should've thought about that one." We had dinner provided by the club, and the food was AWESOME. We started off with a spinach salad topped with a vinaigrette, beets, soft goat's milk cheese (my guess) and pine nuts. Possibly one of the best salads I've had, I think, and I'm not really a fan of salads (it makes me feel like a horse when I shove a forkful of green leaves into my mouth). Our main dishes were delicious too: I had the chicken breast, which was roasted and then topped with a savory gravy, accompanied by roasted red potatoes and a tomato-corn-bell pepper type of salsa. The chicken was a bit dry, but the gravy made it all the better. My boss had the salmon, and he said it was the first time that it wasn't overcooked. It came with fingerling potatoes and carrots in a green puree (not sure what it was, but everyone at our table ate everything). Finally we were ready to leave because dessert hadn't come out yet, so we just assumed that they weren't going to serve any. After we said our goodbyes, we started heading towards the door and were about 3 feet away when I spotted the wait staff bringing out plates of a delicious square chocolate cake. "WAIT, we CAN'T leave yet! They're bringing out DESSERT!" So we sat back down at the table and explained to everyone that we were staying just for the dessert. And we were SO glad we did: the cake-looking thing turned out to be a black forest and vanilla mousse cake (2 inches of the black forest chocolatey mousse on the bottom, with a centimeter of vanilla mousse on top), coated entirely with a dark chocolate ganache, and served with a circle of dark chocolate syrup and crushed macadamia nuts. IT. WAS. HEAVEN. So, full of food, drinks and conversation about baseball (we were like, "wtf is the lower farm league?" the whole time), we left. A great location, great food, and plenty of parking in San Francisco? The St. Francis Yacht Club gets my high marks for being a wonderful place in the city! And if anyone is wondering, no, I didn't meet any young single guys.
The not so great part: It's in a far-off part of the Marina where cabs never go, so it'll be really hard to get to and from if you're at an event where you'll be having cocktails. The absolutely fantastic part: On a clear day, I truly believe this may be the best view in all of San Francisco. With the crashing waves and the bridge in the distance, this is the stuff people dream about when they think of this beautiful city. So, I'd say the good definitely outweighs the bad. I don't have a yacht but I had the chance to visit this locale for a wedding rehearsal dinner and we were lucky enough to have it on one of the warmest days of the year so far. It was absolutely breathtaking. As for the dinner and service, it was just fine - but it's really all about the view!
I put a deposit down to hold my wedding here. I then cancelled the engagement and was under a contract which the manager did not make an exception to cancel. So, I decided to hold a Halloween party (October of 2015). Their events manager went on leave so I had to deal with her replacement after many, many unreturned calls. They tried to up-sell me on everything. The food for the price I paid was ridiculously meager. Despite knowing my situation, they did not tell me that I would be refunded the difference of whatever was not spent. Had I known that, I would not have tried to spend the entire deposit to make the most of the sunken cost. The bartender was friendly - that is about the only thing I can say for this place.
"Lock up the good Scotch, Buffy!" If I were a pretentious, sea-faring socialite-type who wore pearls and, crap, what do preppies wear? Right, a sweater over my shoulders, I would join the St. Francis Yacht Club. Boy, they have a great view at that place! Only, I would permanently guest-list all my friends so they wouldn't have to wait for me to show up in order to have a cocktail. Which is what I did last night. Waited. For a cocktail. Until the guest of honor and her card-carrying club member arrived. It was a long and painful 20 minutes... I think we were beginning to frighten the cocktail waitress. Like we were gonna mutiny or something. So, yeah. I'd guest-list my friends. And laugh a lot. Loudly. And propose many champagne-fueled toasts and clink glasses and laugh some more! There wasn't too much of that going on in the place before my unruly & rambunctious pals showed up. A bit stuffy & uptight, the blue-bloods at the St. Francis Yacht Club are. But no one had us thrown out, so they can't be all bad.
The food is mediocre. The people are pretentious and horrible (I'm talking Bentleys in the parking lot sort of place) Outside tables are horribly windy Servers ignore you unless you "look the part" So why three stars then, you may ask. Why not just 1? The view is gorgeous The gossip is fantastic The drinks are the strongest I've had in my life. Therefore: Mussels in a lemon butter sauce for lunch: $20 Grey Goose and tonic that was 75 or 80% alcohol: God only knows Going to a private club at 20 years old, not getting carded, AND charging lunch to the company account: Priceless.
Went there for a cocktail reception and the sushi was just awful. I didn't finish what was on my plate which I rarely ever do. Other dishes were so-so as well, breading falling off the shrimp, and pasta that I could make better at home. Big disappointment for such a classy venue, and I'm sure they paid a fortune for the room and food.
I called to ask about a venue for my wedding and before i could finish introducing myself put on hold. The woman on the phone who did not introduce herself told me it was a members only club. I proceeded to thank her anyways and she hung up. Wow !
This is SPECIFICALLY a review for the buffet-style dinner at their restaurant. Wow, I most definitely have experienced better, especially for that price. The shrimp was so tough I thought I was eating rubber, the roast beef was overcooked, as in way past dead, on the outside but bloody as heck on the inside. The bread was barley better than stale and the crackers for the cheese were soggy. I mean all of it looked ok but don't put it in your mouth. Meh, my friend's mom was footing the bill. Reedemingly, the view of the bridge is magnificent, especially at night when it's all lit up.
I came here as a guest for a company event. This review is based on the experience and view of the location only. The room that my company had rented oversees the Golden Gate bridge and you can also see the Alcatraz. At the time we had the event, there was people who was wind sufing and it was a great view. It was an amazing experience since my company had paid for the event and no out of pocket cost to me :). The food that was served was great! Had the 3 course meal and service was exceptional. I did not give it a 5 star because I don't know the pricings of the food and beverages.
So... my alma mater hosted an event here thanks to a rich, i mean a generous yacht club member/alum who sponsored the thing. Straight off the bat, you smell exclusivity :) I yelped before I went and considering none of my friends had ever been, I asked the wise Mamasita what she thought of the place -- and like a ridiculously-expensive-ass piece of jewelry or marriage, she said she considered it a thing you should try once. (should is becoming could, nowadays but onwards.) So on i went... Granted we were super lucky to find ourselves situated on the dock -- the window of the main mingling area is right by the water -- with no fog and a perfect, clear, beautiful view of the GGB, the space was just a well-kept, upscale version of a recreational or city hall building of sorts. Blue carpet, conference rooms, walls with paintings, windows into the courtyard... I think the outside is more interesting than the inside though. Obviously, food will depend on the venue and budget, but hors d'ouevres were so-so and my vegetarian friends went underfed due to poor choices :( The pile-it-yourself meat slices, veggie sticks, and cheese buffets were nicely stocked and I couldn't even make it to the bar. My group wasn't VIP enough so I didn't get to taste their main food.... ugh. Useless, i tell you!! But if you're considering an event here, just make sure they have ample vegetarian options. The stars are mainly for the view of the water, spacious parking, the night sky after the venue ended, and the laughs from our accidental ride to GGB when we missed our turn... good times.

It was an offshoot of the San Francisco Yacht Club, which was founded in 1856 and had its facility in Sausalito, across the Bay. That facility burned to the ground in the mid-twenties and a fierce debate ...
