Megan BauerMarch 6, 2015Their cocktails and wine list are a perfect way to end an evening. Very pleased with the cauliflower (tasting menu turns a la carte at the bar) fyi the scallops are raw. This is a must see!
EaterJuly 30, 2012Inspired flavor combinations—think 'bbq pork' with cornbread, mustard ash and licorice root—join a cocktail program and interior design that are best in their San Francisco class.

Rafi SyedMarch 20, 2013They have a secret stash of Pappy Van Winkle 13 and 20, but you have to ask really nicely and know what you're talking about. Otherwise you're stuck drinking the Van Winkle Lot B. #whiskeyprobs
Frederique DDecember 2, 2012The pork loin hash w/ fried eggs and the French toast w/ buttermilk fried chicken are a must. Also: no lines and reasonably priced for brunch.
Ali AndersonApril 6, 20154 course Easter Brunch - amazing brioche with sweet potato purée used for the eggs Benedict.
One of the best seasonal fixed menu in town. Terrific date spot!
Probably one of the best culinary experiences available in San Francisco. Thoroughly enjoyable in every way!
The Daily SipJanuary 11, 2012Impressive and deep wine list with some interesting gems. Save the $20 corkage fee by buying one of their many reasonably priced bottles for a few dollars more.
Shirley LiuMay 11, 2013Splurge for the tasting menu if you're hungry! Empire Builder was a refreshing cocktail with a celery juice base -- worth checking out.
Amy PospiechApril 2, 2014Amazing food as well as seasonal cocktails. Classy with a nice vibe. Don't miss it!!!
Sam SSeptember 8, 2013Delicious. Order everything you can. The cobbler and AQ benedict were particularly good.
Christian WilliamsMarch 24, 2014A memorable and near-flawless experience, the 10-course Chef's tasting menu is an excellent value.
Michel TrianaSeptember 14, 2012Best pork I've tried in my life. The insane flavors will hunt you in your dreams... and then you want more and more
MikeMarch 6, 2013Noteworthy cocktails, Notable food, Extensive spirits, Great atmosphere, Exceptional wine list.
Tanner ChristensenJuly 16, 2016Try anything. Everything here is amazing. Cocktails, caviar, good atmosphere.
Jessica SkeltonDecember 21, 2014Unbelievable tasting menu in winter. Get the cauliflower with scallops.
Anna EbbesenMarch 27, 2013Treat yourself to the tasting menu with the wine paring. They make for a unique combination.
Ian SullivanAugust 29, 2013Great cocktails, great food, and huge wine list. A dangerous combination!
Rachel FairbanksNovember 5, 2011If you don't get one of the tasty tasty desserts, you're missing out. The brown butter sorbet is insanely good.
Stephan Van DamJune 17, 2016Experimental failure. Disruptive cuisine. It gets odd when the techies cook. There are other items than salt to provide flavor. Pretentious and overpriced and totally ignorant of the people out front.
The Bold ItalicMay 18, 2012Cocktail Lab ninjas Ethan and Timothy are known to concoct cocktails here, ask these guys what's delish. Read more
Lauren SchellerJune 23, 2013Unbelievable service. Gabriel is a fantastic, knowledgable and helpful waiter!
ShennyApril 8, 2013Great Bourbon list. Above average food. Not spectacular though. Courses are much larger than they make it out to be.
Katie FayramJune 14, 2012Get the coffee, even a decaf. Not only is it quality but it comes with a rock candy.
Ryan CApril 23, 2012Food is good, healthy and clean but portions are very small. Service is slowwwwww and unattentive. Don't come hungry or with immediate plans.
