Sessions at the Presidio

I had my wedding rehearsal dinner here for 13 people on October 3, 2024 and Jocelyn was fantastic. She made the day go seamlessly and feel special. The waiter helping us out that day, Agustin, was so lovely and helpful as well! Thank you!!! I definitely recommend this place if you’re looking to book a special dinner!

Food was good, service was not on par with the high prices. A little loud, even outside, but a nice view. Eh, probably won’t go back.

I ate at Sessions during our early October heatwave here in SF. I had reserved a table in the Patio and it was a perfect evening for dining outside. When I arrived I realized it was a bit cooler that evening and the hostess very kindly seated us at a table that was directly under a heat lamp. We shared a burger and the Caesar salad. The burger was very good - a nice thick patty on a warmed roll with excellent thick cut fries. I'm not always a fan of thick cut fries but these were exceptional. Caesar salad was fine - I do wish they would serve it with croutons versus the toasted crumbs (although the menu does specify 'crumble' versus croutons), but that was the only improvement that I would request to the food and wine that we shared. They had cut the burger in half for us and also brought us separate sharing plates so we could server the burger, fries, and salad onto our own plates. We also had a carafe of the Skywalker Rose which was very good. The carafe contains about 3 glasses of wine I think and was the perfect amount of wine to share between the two of us. The service here was excellent (I've always had great service here). The patio at Sessions is one of my favorite outdoor dining spots in San Francisco.

Sessions at Presdio is truly amazing. The service is 5 stars and so is the food, but at a reasonable price considering the area. The management is on point. I came 2 days in a row and they remembered me and my order. Highly recommended if you're in the area.

Food was absolutely delicious. Service was very very slow unfortunately. Perhaps they were short staffed on the day we visited

I usually enjoy Sessions, but my dinner last night was the worst service I’ve ever experienced. I’m not one to write Yelp reviews, but this was truly disappointing. We waited over 20 minutes just for a server to greet us, and it took another 25 minutes to get our drinks after being greeted.

I asked to speak with the manager, but he was busy making drinks and showed no sense of urgency. He never followed up or seemed concerned about improving our experience. Meanwhile, the staff were laughing and chatting by the bar, with no one checking in after I expressed my dissatisfaction.

The food is always good, but the service is inconsistent, and the management clearly doesn’t care. Beware.

Sessions at the Presidio is a great restaurant just inside the Presidio boundary with a lot going for it: creative seasonal menu, nice ambiance, covered heated patio that is dog friendly overlooking the Presidio park, and easy parking (underground).

Our server was very nice and attentive, the food was very good, and the ability to let our dog join us for dinner was great.

We had a wonderful time last night. We planned a small surprise birthday dinner for my 16 year old daughter, and the staff was lovely, helpful, and just terrific. We sat on the patio and everyone had a great time. Thanks for making our little celebration special. Brendan, our server, was especially great.

Good value for delicious food on their limited menu. My boyfriend had the roasted chicken and loved it. It's brined and I had the corn risotto with mushrooms and it was delicious. Since Lucas film has offices here, they offer wines from George's vineyards in San Rafael... With some additional offerings added in. Some better than others, but with the carafe offering, it's great value. This location at the Presidio is beautiful and peaceful...and interior design architecture by Don Olsen, is unique and well done. They deserve to succeed! We are foodies and we are glad we went!

Very Dog friendly. The covered outdoor patio had 6 dogs today. Love that they accept dogs there.

The staff was attentive and friendly. They were diligent in making sure that the list of allergies I gave them was triple checked and they reassured me when delivering my food to the table. It was very much appreciated.

The food and coffee was delicious. Highly recommend the Pork Belly Benedict. It was served on sourdough toast instead of English muffins which I loved.
