If someone else is picking up the tab, I'd definitely cash it in here. Was here last Friday and the two of us had the tasting menu and a bottle of wine, ended up being about $600.

Overall, the service was fantastic and the food had its moments, out of the 18 courses there were probably about 4 that were fantastic, 8-10 that were really good, and the rest I didn't really care for.

This was quite good. It was really good. However, I would have to say that the lamb takes an edge over it. Perhaps I am more of a red meat person. But the salmon was quite ecellent. I started with the crispy farm egg, and it was quite good. Overall, a great place!

Makes me regret not trying the lamb. Oh well, there is always a next time and after the amazing time we had in Napa and SF there will definitely be a next time.

Thank SFflyer.

I called today for a reservation seven weeks from now and many of the times were already filled. Glad I didn't wait!

The last 3 times I've eaten here, I made no reservations and ate at the bar. For those that decide to eat here last min, just stop by. You may have to wait 15-30 mins, but well worth it.
