Elizabeth BursteinNovember 28, 2017Phenomenal. Loved the truffle lobster, the uni cream appetizer, the pumpkin pasta, lobster pot pie, the wagyu beef shabu shabu, and the dark chocolate dessert. Did the 5 course with wine pairings.
Daniel BowenAugust 9, 2017I had the tuna tartare & the tomato salad for starters & the lobster pot pie for an entree. I preferred the more filling tuna tartare over the tiny tomato salad. The lobster roll was amazing!
Gaile GuevaraJanuary 6, 2019Exceptional service and food. I only wish I had brought company as I could barely finish my desert. Highly recommend the 6 course tasting menu. Delightful.
Gosia JJuly 1, 2013Fantastic restaurant! Definitely great place for all the foodies. Tuna tartar for a starter, dorade for a main and red velvet cake as a desert were excellent!! Tip top service and marvellous wine list
Christopher WestcottAugust 23, 2013A great wine selection. Definitely do pick a few of their whites. Oddly enough, my favorite dish was the complimentary grilled cheese and tomato soup snack ;-) But definitely try the tuna tartare too.
Jeepin' JeffSeptember 21, 2013This is one of the best restaurants I have EVER eaten in. If you come to SF you have to make this part of your itinerary. The food, wine and service is to die for. 4 out of 4 stars.
Wilson Favre-DelerueSeptember 26, 2016Worthy of its reputation as one of the better downtown restaurants. Tasty cocktails, inventive and tasty food, impeccable service.
Dov DNovember 24, 2019Very fancy, we had the 5 course tasting menu. The melon desert was spectacular.
Sin-Young ParkMay 11, 2017Carbonara and tuna tartare!!! Lobster pot pie was a bit overpriced and not as good. Good for business meetings
Damian BayonaNovember 25, 2016Walks in are readily available if you sit at the bar - same delicious menu without the wait or planning ahead 👍🏻
Stephanie OneilAugust 17, 2015Beautiful restaurant, food is incredible, service is outstanding, can't wait to go back!
Jane ChuMarch 16, 2012Amazing food. I think this is Michael Mina's best restaurant. Great service, great atmosphere and everything is cooked well. Not the cheapest, but lunch deal is not bad.
Great service! 9 course menu for 2 is amazing !! 18 courses of wow. Plus oh so naughty bread with honey and cheese
Michelin Travel & LifestyleNovember 26, 2013Leave room for refined renditions of classic desserts, like the rich red-velvet génoise with hibiscus-rooibos cream. – Green Guide Editor
Dean NorrisMay 15, 2016Regular chefs menu can be amazing. This place is like poker, sometimes the fold in the napkin is the best part.
John Fernandez SFFebruary 13, 2011The restaurant is an experience in itself, however aside from the food, the bread served is amazing! The CON: Corkage fee is $35!!!! That was a turn off. Visit me at personaltrainingSF.com
Silvestre AcedilloSeptember 22, 2013I'll be honest with you: My friend and I chose this restaurant because she said it is so popular and so hard to get in. At $400 for the Chef's Menu, Food was mediocre. And we had to eat in the bar!
@JaumePrimeroOctober 28, 2011I'm a close friend of the Asst. Beverage Director. Trust me the wine list is stellar here. Food and wine pairings some of the finest in SF.
heatJuly 19, 2013Luxury Dining. This fine establishment take the preparation of food to an artistic level, where presentation is as important as taste.
Karen MooreOctober 31, 2013Birthday dinner couldn't have been better. The bread with honey and cheese was amazing.
Michæl BrettApril 4, 2016Exceptional service but it's expensive. Highly recommend the lobster pot pie.
Rich TongJune 4, 2013Try the Red Velvet With Dehydrated Strawberries And Rasberry Rooibus Sauce - Wow. Yummy strawberry!
