Excellent food, staff and beautiful location. The Sommelier is one of the best in SF.

We came here to celebrate birthday. In the evening, there is only one 9-course set menu. The food is spectacular. The service is outstanding and the atmosphere is upscale. It is Michelin 3-star quality and well deserved. Considering there are only three 3-star restaurants in San Francisco. It is by all means a worthwhile visit.

Enjoyed my tasting menu here. A very fast solo dining experience at the bar but I enjoyed the pace. Worth trying for sure

Service was great, atmosphere was classy, food was mediocre on average. Caviar is the best, desert was also good, gelato was very tasty, but most other courses were not delicious some even bad. Would not recommend if you are going here on your own expenses.

An intentional, considered and well-thought out vegetarian menu. Great depth of flavor and balanced courses. For drinks, we tried the non-alcoholic seasonal progression and a Chenin Blanc from Loire Valley. Both paired beautifully with the our 5-course menu. The autumnally inspired dessert was art on the plate. They sent us off at the door with a hot drink in a to-go cup which was a great touch for a chilly afternoon.

Went for dinner with a group of 4 people. Good experience, but nothing was spectacular. For how many stars they have I would have expected to have a wow effect with something.

The last two times, we sat at the bar (because I am in love with their bar). Last time, it was Eric who assisted us. This time, it was Jared. They have the most lovely professional easy-to-talk-to manners. We enjoyed watching them make the cocktails, as well as drinking them! :-) The bar is absolutely gorgeous as is the rest of the restaurant. And yes, the food is delicious. My husband, who is all about meat and potatoes, was waxing poetry about their deconstructed vegetable salad. I loved their lobster pasta, so perfectly al dente and the lobster cooked perfectly. And the wine suggestions! Thank you for making my birthday special.

Amazing experience at Quince, after a long break between visits... maybe 10 years! Food was amazing, service was perfect, but honestly, I won't go again anytime soon... still leaving 5 stars as it meets expectations, but it didn't blow my mind, it was very conservative in its approach. So I would still recommend it for a special occasion, a rare treat, but look around, maybe there's something else that's more original, and just as tasty, for the price... or much less!

We attended the Truffle Dinner at Quince, and the entire experience was outstanding. The staff was incredibly attentive and made me feel truly cared for, especially with my dietary restrictions, everything was handled with ease and respect. The food was exceptional, and the non-alcoholic pairing was one of the best I’ve ever had. My husband had the wine pairing, and he was blown away by the thoughtfulness and quality of each pour. A special thank-you to Chef Michael Tusk for taking the time to speak with us, it made the evening feel even more personal. And the beautiful birthday cake with a candle was such a thoughtful touch. Quince is a rare combination of world-class food, warm hospitality, and genuine detail. An unforgettable night.

Possibly some of the best services, pairing, and food we have ever had. This is going to be more about that and NOT a price to dinner.
The wine paring is great, tried a whole bunch of new wines and they did a great job with the meal.
The meal was fantastic, from start to finish, the staff is knowledgeable and friendly.
I don't want to know much before on restaurants like this, and I don't want to suggest what I want because I want to see what the chef is going to do. (I always just want protein)
Probably the best mushroom dish I've ever had. Glad I tried it. Do I want that all of the time? No. But its why I go to these places. Now I want to go home and fail at making it. Its fun!
I would tell people who go to Addison, FLaundry, Alinea, Le B., Disfrutar, ect... this is in your world and its worth it. You will not be disappointed.
Dining at Quince was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, every detail reflected precision, grace, and care. The atmosphere was calm, elegant, and inviting, with perfectly matched to the three-Michelin-star reputation.
The seasonal tasting menu was outstanding. Each course felt purposeful and beautifully executed, with ingredients that clearly spoke to California’s best farms and producers. The presentation, flavor balance, and pacing were all flawless.
What impressed me most, though, was the team’s genuine hospitality. The staff went out of their way to make sure we were completely comfortable, even taking the time to store our electric scooters safely during dinner. That small gesture says a lot about their awareness and willingness to accommodate guests beyond expectation.
Quince delivers everything a fine-dining experience should be: precise, personal, and memorable. It’s a restaurant that truly earns its three stars and leaves you feeling valued from start to finish.

Wonderful lunch at Quince.
The decor was elegant, understated and relaxing, yet interesting with all the different textures and tones in the room. I really enjoyed how inviting the atmosphere was, and felt that the decor reflected - yet firmly placing the focus on - the food at Quince.
Service was attentive, formal and friendly at the same time, with details paid to what one responds to. When I commented on the beautiful dinnerware, a book on a Kyoto artisan from whom Quince gets some of their dinnerware was brought over, which I found to be sweet, and appreciative of the different elements that make Quince what it is.
What I loved about the food was (in addition to the perfect techniques) its focus on ingredients yet with layers of flavor that felt just right for the season. Every dish seemed to flow from one to the other, while being unique. Creative, different, yet harmonious.
This was definitely one for the books and hope I’ll get to return in the future.

I first went to Quince in 2006 at their Hayes Valley location when I lived in SF, and returned again last month for a birthday weekend. Service is still extraordinary as the cuisine and I had one of the most memorable experiences I've ever had in a restaurant.
Every course of the 3 hour tasting menu was superb, creative and well presented and bursting with distinctive flavor. The attention to detail was inspiring.
I was treated to enjoying one of the later courses inside the kitchen, and it was surreal to see the immaculate environment with everyone executing with the precision expected in a 3 Michelin star restaurant.
I trust I will return there again soon, and won't let 19 years pass this time.
