Private Dining Guidelines

Transcription

1 Private Dining Guidelines Located on The Embarcadero waterfront in the Rincon Park area, Waterbar features sustainable seafood available from both local and international waters, respecting seasonality and the natural essence of the sea. Under the direction of Executive Chef and Owner Parke Ulrich, preparations are soulful, elegant and unpretentious. The entire Second Floor of Waterbar is dedicated to Private Dining. The Bridge Tower Room, on the south side of the building, is nestled directly under the Bay Bridge on the San Francisco Bay. Wall-to-wall windows allow for a Bay and City view simultaneously, and the private terrace provides a theatrical backdrop for the private dining room. The Looking Glass, on the north side of the building, is a partially-enclosed and covered terrace that also includes access to an indoor bar overlooking the main restaurant. The newly renovated space is a great location for smaller groups and has sweeping views of the Bay. The Private Dining Menu offers many options: a large selection of hors d oeuvres, Oysters Adrift showcasing decadent raw bars, classic fish dishes as well as sustainably raised meat and poultry. Several family-style options, including a Lobster Feat or Clambake, are ideal for creating a festive mood.
