Great steaks and oysters. Also had a really good Caesar salad. Nice ambiance and great service

Absolutely wonderful. Nothing better in my book than the old established oakroom feel of a steakouse. Love the piano and bass, too.

It's our first time to dine at Harris. I was amazed with the elegance of the place. The maitre d' and staff are courteous and kind. Our server Adam is humble. The service is overwhelmingly excellent!

We had 4 kinds of steak. Overall the quality of steaks was very good. However, the Japanese A5 wagyu was below what I expected. Very fatty pieces and unevenly cooked in the 4 oz piece we had. Sides were fine. Lobster was not that good. Overall good food but way overpriced and certainly not in the top 3 steakhouses in SF.

Our steaks were not cooked to order. We ordered medium rare on the rare side and the rib eye steak and our filet migons came out medium. We CDwere dining with group of oeople so we didn't make a fuss. Disappointing to say the least.

Always a delight of consistency and excellence. Lucy is incredibly knowledgeable as a server and the maitre d Joseph/Martin are wonderful. Look forward to these dinners immensely.

I come to Harris' regularly. I always bring clients there. It is really the nicest restaurant in SF.

What an awesome night. We sat in one of the private rooms right next to the bar. So, you could hear the music, but it wasn't so loud that you couldn't hear each other speak. Service - Sean was our waiter and was awesome. He knew when to return to our table to inquire about anything we might need vs. leaving us be. He was also very knowledgeable about all the foods, wine, and cocktails we inquired about. Also, we were not rushed, like some other SF restaurants, which adds a negative experience to the evening. Harris Rest. just knows how to treat their patrons. The food was incredible. We ordered multiple items on the menu and shared them amongst the entire table. From steak tartare, wedge salad, crab cakes, steak, and asparagus, not to mention ice wine and strawberry pavlova (which was our night's surprise treat) - all were very shareable and very tasty. Costs - Honestly, between all the cocktails and wine, we expected the total bill to be higher than it was. So, a very reasonable deal for the high quality of the entire experience. This entire experience was wonderful and enjoyable. 3 out of 4 had never been to Harris before that evening. Needless to say, we're planning to return in the near future.

Old school restaurant wins again!! Food was delicious and service impeccable. And it was quiet which is hard to find nowadays.

Jon

The entire experience was outstanding. Our server, Lucy was exceptional. We look forward to returning.

Mauricio

Good taste of food. The meat was a little bit overcooked, but good size and nice presentation. The service is good, but could be much warmer, though it is polite!

Jaril

Amazing food and staff. Great experience. The food presentation and flavor are excellent and the staff are respectful, friendly and gave excellent recommendations. We had a wonderful time!

Soft leather, polished brass and dark wood are the core of Harris Hotel personality. Warm hospitality and dry aged prime cuts of meat cooked to order. We started at the bar with a friendly and indulgent bartender who added a little Mezcal to my rye Manhattan without blinking. We were called to a sumptuous booth. Our friend is a professional wine connoisseur. He made a suggestion to the sommelier whose face immediately went to personal affront, though my friend had only mentioned wines of interest. We don't know what offended him. Our server was a jewel. She listened well, suggested options and smiled even when we made some changes to enhance sharing options. My wife and I ordered rib eye medium rare. Our steaks were mostly gray, with just a touch of pink. The strawberry passionfruit Pavlova was beautiful and delicious. A great conclusion. We friends continued to talk, including our server, until we realized the room was empty. Our friends departed, and as we waited for Waymo to take us back to our SOMA home, the sommelier approached us. He found a wallet on our table. It was that of our wine pro. We promised to return the wallet to its owner and thanked the sommelier for chasing us down.

We're San Franciscans and come here for most family birthdays & bring visitors. The consistency of delicious food and service is unparalleled. We love hopping into the Waymo and it says to us, “starting ride to Harris' Restaurant- THE San Francisco Steakhouse “ I can hear an Emphasis on “THEE”. Our whole family is tickled by it. The porterhouse & filets are perfection. Everything is perfection from the starter cocktail to the oysters, beef tartare, scallop apps. The bread & butter. Muah! The mains are perfectly cooked. Veg sides incredible. I tend to get the asparagus & button mushrooms for the table. Bring over the sommelier for a robust Bourdeux. Everyone hoards their own perfect dessert to stick the landing. It's pricey but you can't do this at home from start to finish. We're spoiled by having HARRIS' in our city. Other steakhouses may have good steak but the service suffers or the drinks, apps or dessert is uninventive. Bravo!!
