I miss the old Slanted Door back when it started in the Mission. Even though it was smaller, it had lots more personality and superb service. I find the new location in the Ferry Building over-hyped. Though boasting great architecture, the ultra modern decor doesn't quite do it for me. Feels cold and uninviting. Food is always good, but I don't think it is so great to warrant the impossible to get reservations for weekend dining. All around a bit frustrating that I've stopped trying. Frankly, there are better options. Though if you want to entertain friends from out of town, it is a good place to stop by-- try lunch on a Sat so you can do the Ferry Building, the Farmer's Market and if the line is too long to wait for Slanted Door, they also have a take out section that provides quicker service.
