Amazing discovery of unique foods cooked by chef Brian that are Sri Lankan influenced. Great wine selection in an intimate setting with top notch service.

We attended a private event at this beautiful cozy restaurant. The hosts were so welcoming, generous and attentive. We had a set menu so that made it easy to not worry about the ordering... And above all, the food was absolutely delish! The 'semifreddo' with Ceylon tea (Pic) was so lovely... ??.
Every single dish was a hit! Thanks Brian and team!

Came during happy hour with my daughter and the service was phenomenal. The waiter was absolutely the best. I wish I had gotten his name. He cater to us without a bothersome type of atmosphere.

We were recently in San Francisco and had an amazing evening at 1601. We were there with a large group and we had our 2 little boys with us. We all had so much fun tasting course after course! Everything was delicious and they easily accommodated our gluten preference. We will definitely go back next time we're in town.

Had the most incredible spread at 1601! The best, and most flavorful crab curry I've ever had! Plus the egg hoppers were to die for. And everyone at the restaurant were truly kind and attentive! This is a must try if you're in San Francisco.

Such a unique and delicious experience. Chef Brian does an incredible job of blending authentic Sri Lankan dishes with Modern Californian cuisine. I can't wait to go back there again.

1601 is one of the best restaurants in San Francisco. The food is excellent. If you’re looking for fine dining, it checks all the boxes. If you’re looking for authentic Sri Lankan flavors, it checks the boxes. If you’re looking for something interesting or just good… it’s got it all. An egg hopper with good sambol is something everyone should try (at least once).Excellent wine list to pair with the food. Reasonable prices on the wine and food.Plus the team behind it treats customers extremely well, like friends. I go back again and again.
