Feel bullied into eating soggy pizza at the airport? Do your own thing when you head out for summer vacation, and tie up to Yankee Pier. This East Coast-inspired seafood joint infuses SFO with a boost of chowdah...that actually tastes good. Sit down at the full bar for a bevvy and fresh oysters, or grab a Dungeness crab roll to go (there are also staples like salads and veggie pasta). Its seasonal produce is sourced locally (no transport emissions), and so is most of the seafood (Maine lobster ain't just a clever name, unfortch), but it's all sourced according to the Seafood Watch program, which protects against overfishing. C'mon, you know you wanna...

Wanna Try: 

Yankee Pier; SFO's United domestic terminal, post-security (650-821-8938).
