Alioto's Restaurant, a beloved San Francisco fixture at Fisherman's Wharf since the 1930s, closed in 2020 and is now scheduled for demolition as part of a $10 million revitalization plan. The Port of San Francisco aims to replace it with a public plaza to enhance the area, which has suffered from business closures due to the pandemic. Local residents and visitors express sadness over the changes, reflecting on memories tied to the iconic restaurant. The project also includes plans for improved lighting, an overlook, seismic upgrades, and new retail spaces, with completion expected next summer.
I mean, I spent my 20th anniversary here. My heart is literally in San Francisco, and this kills me.
To me, it was coming here and watching the crab pots boil and getting the wonderful aromas.
