San Francisco, CA
Fog Harbor Fish House stands out for its environmental leadership at Fisherman’s Wharf. Run by the Simmons family, it was the first restaurant in Fisherman’s Wharf to offer a 100% sustainable seafood menu, approved by the Aquarium of the Bay and meeting the standards of the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch Program. With sweeping views of the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz, Fog Harbor shows that busy, well-known restaurants can and should protect the marine ecosystems that San Francisco depends on.
The Sustainability Print:
At Fog Harbor, sustainability goes beyond a label. The restaurant is a Platinum Sustainable Seafood Alliance partner and a certified San Francisco Green Business, ensuring that every species on the menu is harvested responsibly. Their leadership has helped raise the bar at the Wharf, and their ongoing relationship with the Aquarium of the Bay keeps them current with the latest in marine science and ethical harvesting practices. It’s not just the seafood either — every ingredient on the menu is obtained using environmentally responsible practices.
