The legend of this popular Victorian bar and restaurant dates back to its construction in 1884. The story goes that the "Fat Lady" was a madame who ran the busiest brothel on the Oakland wharf and that Jack London may have been a customer. The decor at this family-run place is lavishly Victorian. On weekend nights the salon-style bar is filled with locals enjoying the live music. During the workweek, it is popular with professionals. The menu features an electric mix of steaks, seafood, chicken, pasta, burgers, salads and more. The house liver pate made with ground walnuts and cognac. The double-cut French Lamb Chops are marinated in virgin olive oil and fresh rosemary. Weekend brunch dishes include Cinnamon Bread French Toast soaked in a special Grand Marnier Batter and topped with Berries.
