Serving seasonal American cuisine in a prime location in the Embarcadero area, One Market has proven its staying power. The classy, contemporary atmosphere is soothing, with wrought-iron chandeliers, mustard and terra-cotta walls, and floor-to-ceiling windows offering views of the cable cars and passersby. This restaurant also wins points for attentive service and a nice selection of wines by the glass. The crowd is part business, part tourist. Larger groups can request the chef’s table in the kitchen or the wine room for a memorable meal. Live piano music entertains diners on Saturday nights.
