We visited the Linden Room for their tasting menu and it was a great experience. The bar itself has such a cool, chill vibe—it's intimate and stylish without being pretentious. A huge shoutout to our bartender, Michael. Not only were his drinks absolutely delicious and perfectly balanced, but he was incredibly kind and genuinely cared that we were having a great time. As for the food, every dish in the tasting was distinct and inventive. You can tell so much thought goes into the flavors and presentation. If you want a superb, high-end experience that's fun and relaxed, this is the spot.

We enjoyed the Grinch Christmas menu. The service was excellent. They also provided vegetarian substitutes for my friend because she could not eat raw meat.

Food was amazing but the service was somehow even better?
The minor things that get dealt with SEAMLESSLY melted my heart. Partner ordered an NA cocktail? Champagne toast for the table was NA. Mother is slightly hard of hearing? All entree descriptions given standing next to her. None of these things were called out by us or the staff, they were just done! I wonder what else I missed that the staff did to accommodate us? It left us completely unencumbered to laugh, drink, and enjoy the amazing food. Thank you so much for an amazing experience!

Came here for a celebration and had an amazing time. Our server and the kitchen went above and beyond meeting dietary restrictions. The food was delicious and interesting but the service was just impeccable. We will definitely be back

A lovely 20th anniversary evening. Matt at the bar started the night of right and then William, Kirsten and the crew took over. They were all very knowledgeable about the menu and the wine. We ended up doing the wine pairing (7 wines for the 12 courses) and they were very thoughtful with the pairings. Will definitely look to go back again before another 20 years pass by!

Nightbird is our go-to restaurant in San Francisco. Service equal to the best Michelin starred restaurants; food lovingly prepared with intriguing tastes and textures. All served in a beautiful room with tables spaced to provide conversational room.

Not sure why there is any 1 star reviews this place blows any of my expectations out the door. The team is so talented

Very creative cooking, a little too much food though. Also, I pointed out to a server that the squab breast in one of my courses had been sloppily carved (I bit into some bone and cartilage - eww) and there was zero acknowledgment by the management of this issue. I expect better when paying this kind of money for a meal.

Absolutely incredible experience — creative and delicious dishes with a broad range of ingredients, composed thoughtfully and artistically in a simple space that's not overwhelming. Charming, courteous and professional staff.

If you're looking for an experience and food that you will think about the rest of the year, go here. Chef Kim's inventiveness and care shows through the food. Even the butter was carved into a sculpture. This is my favorite restaurant in SF!
