New American Restaurants near Brisbane, CA

“Love the happy hour. Anchor Steam Draft and Chicken wings. And the sexy manager is very �“

“The food in this restaurant is delicious, I hope you have time to try it.“

“Lovely meal, beautiful in the plate and palate and attentive, but not intrusive, staff. The star left off for ambience is for the cold breeze that hit us every time the door opened and the (ahem) nonfunctioning toilet (which staff was alerted to and prepared to address).“

“An absolute SF classic that lives up to the hype! The English cut prime rib was perfectly aged, tender, and juicy, spun tableside from the silver dome cart—pure theater. Loved the Yorkshire pudding, creamed spinach, and that massive baked potato. Cocktails are strong and old-school. The retro vibe with white tablecloths feels like stepping back in time. Reservations essential, but it's worth it for a special occasion meat-lover's feast.“

“🌟 NOPA San Francisco: A Bucket List Culinary Triumph! 🌟 Review by: The Bucket List Coach Webshow. I recently had the distinct pleasure of crossing a major culinary destination off my bucket list: NOPA San Francisco. My dining experience on December 12, 2025, was not just a meal; it was an absolute masterclass in hospitality and farm-to-table excellence. Exceptional Service: A Shoutout to Zach! From the moment we sat down, the experience was elevated by our server, Zach. He truly went above and beyond, anticipating needs and offering spot-on recommendations, making the dining experience feel incredibly special and seamless. A massive shoutout to Zach, as well as the entire Culinary team, Management team, and staff—the level of coordination and passion was palpable. Appetizers and Beverages: Instant Classics The meal kicked off with the Date and Pear appetizer, which was absolutely fantastic—a perfect balance of sweet, savory, and texture. And for the beer lovers out there, you must try the Honey Beer 🍺. I'm officially adding this to my personal "Beer Bucket List!" I will absolutely be recommending it to all my followers on my podcast and through my travel agency. Thanks to Woods Beer and Wine Company! The Entrée: Perfection on a Plate For the main course, I opted for the Duck, and it was cooked to perfection. Seriously, melt in the mouth- tender meat was phenomenal. The plate presentation was stunning, far exceeding my expectations—it was a true work of art. The side of Grapefruit and Vinaigrette Salad was the perfect accompaniment. It was one of the best salads I have ever had in San Francisco; the brightness of the grapefruit cut through the richness of the duck beautifully. Desserts: Celebrating National Cocoa Day! To celebrate National Cocoa Day Dec. 13th-I couldn't resist. I highly suggest partaking in the Hot Chocolate for a decadent dessert item—it was rich, velvety, and a perfect holiday treat. And if you still have room, the Cheesecake with Brown Sugar is another truly fantastic dessert that offers a wonderful, comforting finish to the meal. NOPA is more than just a restaurant; it's a destination. The ambiance, the incredible staff like Zach, and the impeccable, thoughtful food quality solidify NOPA as a must-visit spot in San Francisco. It earns its place on any serious foodie's bucket list Cindy Lee Podcast Host at Bucket List Coach Web Show & Founder of Bucket List Coach Travel Tours“

“One of my favorite restaurants in San Francisco. Excellent food, especially the homemade charcuterie and cheese selection.

Also fantastic cocktails, and a great wine selection. The Morris never disappoints! PS Get the Chartreuse Slushy as an aperitif. 😉“

“We had dinner there and the food was delicious…. The fried quail was the star. The starters were excellent. Very recommended restaurant“

“It took me a while to try this restaurant since we have many good options on Potrero Hill but finally I did and now love it and return regularly. The flavors are unique, the food is fresh, the staff is kind and the coffee good. I like to try different dishes and I've enjoyed: Roasted Cauliflower Bowl, Pesto Eggs Benedict, French Toast, Vegetarian Scramble. My husband is a fan of the wagyu skewers. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Highly recommend.“

“What an amazing culinary experience! We had a three course meal. The waiter was very helpful, friendly and had great recommendations! I highly recommend this place if you're in San Francisco!“

“We walked in on NYE without a reservation and they graciously found us a spot in the bar area. Service was on point and staff were festively dressed! I love a crafty cocktail but most are too sweet. I had the Smokey mezcal cocktail 🍹. Perfection. Appetizers were delish as well. Perfect way to start our NYE celebrations.“

“tasting menu was amazing. service was top notch.“

“Holy Schnike!!! The food is incredibly delicious, the non-seafood versions I am getting are the most amazing tastes. The Wines paired with the dishes are inspired and spot on.“

“awesome wine experience. Chris and his team are really dedicated sommeliers and love sharing their knowledge with you. i highly recomend this place. welcome to the world of wines.“

“Prospect pleasantly pleased palette-possibilities perfectly! 🙃 . . I opened with the Candace cocktail—Gin, Licor 43, St. Germaine, Peychaud’s and a citrus slice—flirted with my inner #Hedonist in a way that every cocktail should. Each sip sparkled with hints of sweet and sour with salacious depth. I find so much inspiration at the bottom of a glass… . . Then I went with my favorite protein, braised octopus; nested in squid ink gnocchi with an almond relish! It was a dope expression of land and sea in every bite. . . Followed, was the mushroom lasagna; layered with trumpets and truffles, dusted with lemon-shallot bread crumbles. It gave a béchamel-type flavor that was rich, luxurious and lingering. . . Finally—ending with the Scallops grounded in a Venetian black rice, sorrel butter and fennel sofrito! The sear was sensually done; perfectly caramelized Andy succulently sinful. . . Thank you Prospect for reinforcing the internal passion I have for gastronomy! 🗣 B R A V O ! .“

“Previously my visit in 2019 was treasured as my favorite meal I've ever had until this recent visit, which is now the greatest meal I've ever had. I'm grateful for Chef Corey Lee and his endless pursuit for excellence in elevating and innovating Asian cuisine. I came in Dec 26th the day after Christmas to see Chef Lee standing in the middle of the kitchen during service in admiration of his dedication and the dishes that were presented were exactly what I think fine dining, Michelin starred restaurants, and farm to table restaurants should represent. Taking classic Asian flavors and dishes from many different countries while using the finest produce to make dishes that set a new reference point. Some dishes were so familiar to me, the cod reminded me of my Vietnamese mom's catfish that I grew up eating, and other dishes while not nostalgic had clear intent to paint a picture through immaculate flavors and presentation. The dessert course I had in 2019 left much to be desired but this time it left me in awe at how complete the tasting menu is. Thank you Benu for an unforgettable experience.“

“The food was not only delicious but beautifully designed. Each plate was like a work of art. And entire staff was lovely and attentive. The added so many wonderful touches for my wife's birthday. It was truly a one of a kind experience.“

“awesome food , great service definitely recommended“

“Key Klub is one of my favorite spots in SF! The vibe is perfect — neon lights, exposed brick, and just the right mix of modern and cozy. The wine list is amazing (and super fun to explore), and the food is way better than your usual bar snacks. It’s great for a date night or a night out celebrating with friends. The staff are always friendly and make the whole experience even better.“

“This place is sooo BOMB!
I mean wicked good!
Staff are awesome.
The food is awesome.
The vibe is awesome.
Always catering to US.
I’m sooo glad this place is still here.
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO WORKS HERE!“

“Great food and ambience here!“

“What a great place, and why I have discovered it only now. John is the most gracious host who made us feel extremely welcome and comfortable. The whole place is very cozy. It's like a private dining. We were able to enjoy our food and talk as if we were the only people in the restaurant. The food was also great. I don't really like butternut squash soup, but I loved John's. Halibut was very delicious that melted in your mouth. The other dishes were also great and wonderfully presented. Even the dinner rolls which they bake in the house, were also delicious. I actually begged John, and he gave me some to take home. I think the local patrons should chip in and buy this place a great espresso machine :). That was the only thing missing for me in this dinner.“

“I’ve been coming here for years to meet w/family & friends to celebrate or anytime just because or to unwind in the comfy lounge & experience MKT Bar’s excellent service you find in a Four Seasons & the drinks are simply the best! Today was my daughter’s boyfriend’s 1st time here & he understood 💯 why we love MKT Bar & he is an awesome bartender!“

“The view is comfortable and the dishes are exquisite. It is highly recommended.“

“Dog friendly. Supper nice staff“

“The restaurant has a cozy and welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel at home as soon as you walk in the door. The environment is vibrant with warm lighting, rustic wooden tables, and friendly staff who will go out of their way to ensure you have a memorable visit. I ordered their famous lemon ricotta pancakes, which were perfectly fluffy, tangy, and served with crispy potatoes that were seasoned just right. The freshness of the ingredients really stood out, making every bite an absolute treat. What I loved most about dining at The Plough was the sense of community and comfort that one felt while dining. It's clear that the restaurant paid attention to every detail, from the decor to the presentation of the dishes, to create an inviting and enjoyable dining experience.“

“good food and love the mimosa“

“Very unique atmosphere! Great food and drinks!“

“The do called "inclusive" atmosphere is really just an owner who hates everyone who has different views. If your social or political views are woke, you aren't welcome. Spend your money elsewhere. This guy is an idiot.“

“Absolutely amazing food and service“

“One65 was an amazing discovery on our trip to San Francisco. Having spent the first half of our life in Montréal, Québec, Canada where it was hard to find a bad restaurant, we were absolutely amazed by this Bistro which looks more like a high end dining experience. The menu online & the photos attracted us to this location but we were amazed by the well timed service, the crisp white tablecloths, the table setting and the pleasant and calm atmosphere. My choices of charcuterie platter was perfectly sized; the chicken & the pork rillettes where a wonderful surprise. My husband had an onion tart with the crust as perfect as they get & which I envied. He loved his halibut, moist and tender and I raved over my grilled half lobster, so tender that I found myself munching on the shell parts as well. My bread pudding was not of overwhelming size & perfectly flavored. Don chose the Affogato (scoop of vanilla gelato « drowned » with a shot of hot espresso). We wanted to go back today but they are closed on Sundays.?“

“Personable and professional service. Promptly served“

“I must say i had high hopes but the meal was tasteless but my friends had too much salt. I wanted to like it. Wont return, wont recommend. ☹“

“Really clean, cute space. Staff is amazing. Hard to find a true local and well run place to eat. Prices are fine, clearly not cheap but the food and experience reflects it. Food was amazing. Literally best quiche I’ve ever had. It was perfect and plenty. Will be back with a date. Perfect spot for this. Lively, interesting but not loud and obnoxious.“

“Had our company team dinner here last night and the staff did an amazing job. We had 17 in our party and they were very quick to get us seated, take our orders, and get the food served. The staff was very attentive and the atmosphere was great for a large group like ours. Everyone commented on how delicious everything was - thank you for a great experience. Would definitely recommend and will be bringing my partner here soon!“

“Had San Francisco Cioppino (Mussels. Clams, Crab, Cod, Prawns, Scallops and Garlic Bread that was the bomb). Only giving 2 thumbs up as I only have 2. Great food, great service!“

“just lovely! vegan friendly but the fried chicken was tops!“

“Holy moly, this place was great! The food is tasty & beautifully served. The service was great & Hannah made terrific suggestions. Really well done!“

“A great way to experience a four course meal at an affordable price, with delicious food. We will definitely be back.“

“Love this place. Beautiful view and great customer service. Delicious food and the atmosphere was very relaxing…“

“Amazing dining experience. Worth the price“

“The food here is absolutely delicious and the staff is so friendly and accommodating. I can't recommend this little gem in the Lakeside neighborhood enough. Reasonable prices as well as many menu choices. Do yourself a favor and go there and sample everything, you will be very glad you did.“

“Great breakfast and fast service Thank you ♥️♥️“

“Cozy place for breakfast in town. Good foods mixture between American and Thai highly recommend friendly service .“

“I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. I am a business owner a few doors down and I wandered in with a friend after work one night about a month ago. We were met with such incredible warmth from the staff and the environment itself, even without a reservation. We sat at the bar and were greeted by Josh, only to find out later that he is the owner. He made excellent recommendations on everything from our drinks to dessert. The bar didn’t feel isolated from the rest of the restaurant and guests, but rather was lively hub frequented by kitchen and serving staff and warmed by a smoldering wood fire. The coziest. We swooned for the poke appetizer, complete with house-made toasted, but not crisp, blue corn tortillas. The pork shoulder tacos—also to die for. I have to say though, that the star on the sidelines was the beans. I honestly didn’t know I could feel this way about beans…but I digress. Josh bounced around from table to table all night, never letting a single ball drop, making every guest feel like *his* guest. A pot de crème sealed the evening in perfect bliss. I’m back a month later with the same friend, eating different and somehow even more incredible entrees: ribeye, halibut and a rhubarb crisp for dessert. I scarcely ever take the time to write a review as I prefer to vote with my $ and my feet, but I simply couldn’t eat here again without taking the time to sing it’s praises. Eat here.“

“Pretty drinks and yummy food“

“It was our first time and the service was amazing. Our dinner was more than excellent, the grilled pork chops with sweet potato puree best ever tasted. Great selection in red wine and great atmosphere! Owners were there and were very welcoming and down to earth! 100% recommended“

“An incredible dining experience that is absolutely worth the high praise and accolades both locally and internationally. The wine pairing experience was phenomenal and absolutely worth it. Especially the Santa Barbara Kiln labeled Cabernet Franc. A highlight of the evening. Chef Carlos provided a very personal touch to the experience explaining each dish and requesting feedback. A dining experience that truly is one of a kind.“
