Surisan, San Francisco: A Fried-Egg Pot, Meat Plates and Noodles in Fisherman's Wharf
Surisan is a Korean restaurant at 505 Beach Street in San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf, and 7x7's July 2026 guide to the neighborhood says it serves Korean fried chicken, BBQ and bibimbap at lunch and dinner. The photos below are from my March 2022 visit.
A pot that looks like bibimbap
The cover photo shows a black pot on a wooden board with steam rising. A fried egg with an orange yolk sits under sesame seeds and black flakes, with shredded cabbage and carrot, thin slices of dark meat, pink shreds that look like pickled onions, and a small white cup of red sauce. It looks like bibimbap (비빔밥), the Korean dish of rice mixed with vegetables, meat and egg, though I can't see the rice under the toppings.
A plate of sliced meat and pieces that look like fried chicken

On a black plate set on a round wooden board, thin slices of meat lie over scallion stalks, red-glazed in front and dark brown behind.

On a speckled gray-green plate, pieces that look like fried chicken shine under a red-orange glaze with sesame seeds and green flakes, beside a small white cup of pink cubes that look like pickled radish. Korean fried chicken is usually fried crisp and tossed in a sweet and spicy glaze, and pickled radish is a common side.
A tray of noodles and the Surisan sign

On a metal tray, curly noodles lie under green sprouts, yellow petals and sesame seeds, with a fried egg and a long dark red-brown piece that looks like a sausage. A red Nongshim instant-noodle cup printed with 辛 and Gourmet Spicy lies across the tray's edge. I can't tell from the photo what this dish is called.

Outside, a rust-colored panel on a brick wall reads SURISAN in spaced white capitals, with 수리산 in Korean letters below it.
What 7x7 says about Surisan
7x7's July 6, 2026 guide to Fisherman's Wharf, written by Shoshi Parks, says Surisan serves a mix of American-style and Korean-style breakfasts in the morning, such as jook (죽), a rice porridge, bulgogi (불고기, marinated beef) fried rice and benedicts, and Korean fried chicken, BBQ and dishes like bibimbap for lunch and dinner. It calls the room inviting and industrial-accented, and off the tourist track. Surisan's hours are not listed in 7x7's guide, the only current source I could open for the restaurant, so check them before you go.
