“Awesome awesome spot. Really incredible vibe in there and great music.

Food is clean eating and delicious, we ordered a ton and loved everything.

The mackerel, mushrooms, scallion chicken, and short rib were incredible. Got one of their highball cocktails as well which was insanely refreshing and a great balance of sweet and sour.

Highly recommend this spot! Seating is limited.“

“Excellent food! The prix fixed tasting menu was very generous and delicious. We were stuffed!“

“The food and coffee were great! Atmosphere indoors can be a bit loud during peak hours. Service was quick and the staff were friendly.
The bar stools inside vary in height and some were too low with respect to the table board across the wall. Otherwise a great place to have breakfast/brunch!“

“Really cool local bar…..the first time I ever tried Flor de Caña was from here…..all the proofs! Nice crowd, service, atmosphere, good drinks, vibe & bar bites! 👍🏿“

“Incredibly delicious food, great vibe, friendly staff.“

“Good experience. Food was well prepared and delicious. We have been to quite a few Michelin star restaurants and one thing that was missing from this experience was that level service. Explaining the dish as it was presented, etc. great food though!“

“A delightful neighborhood venue 😊❗️“

“Such a special place. Similar to La Ciccia, Binu Bonu maintains a lovely neighborhood feel. Huge selection of wine (all of it new to me and something I really liked), wonderful charcuterie type small plates (out of this world olives). The stars are the husband and wife that make the magic place happen.“

“Loved the speakeasy vibe, creative concept

The food was also very good, exceeded expectations. Have returned and highly recommended

The only knock is that it’s located in a bit of a sketchy neighborhood“

“The ingredients are very fresh, the restaurant atmosphere is very good, the service attitude of the staff is also very good, and I had a great time eating“

“Welcome to heaven on earth. SF local and either best resturant I've ever been at or tied for first with Han Il Kwan II. Ridiculous quality and exceptional taste. Highly reccomend.“

“Very good food, wine and ambiance“

“Great place to relax and enjoy great food and service in Haight- Ashbury! Very welcoming -“

“Lovely atmosphere and service from the hostess to our servers. Menu is unique yet simple. Great for vegetarians looking for finer menu. Every bite was flavorful and delicious!“

“The food is artisan caliber, the atmosphere is welcoming and intimate, and our family GOTO!! ❤❤❤❤❤“

“Amazing. Even one of our waiter was amazing. They forgot my sardines and they gave me mussels. Both were AMAZING. Drinks were amazing AND the staff were amazing as well. I dont usually leave reviews unless it is worth my time. Definitely a place to go“

“Absolutely blown away by this sushi spot. It’s a hidden gem with the perfect mix of cozy romantic ambiance and truly top tier sushi. The lighting is soft and intimate which makes it ideal for a date night or a quiet evening to treat yourself.

The nigiri is next level. Fresh, delicate, and full of flavor. I highly recommend sitting at the bar and letting the chef choose a few pieces for you if you’re open minded.

Because of the chef I discovered that I absolutely LOVE Horse Mackerel Nigiri, Kutuso, and Shima Aji. These were things I probably never would have picked on my own but now I can’t stop craving them.

Every piece felt like it was crafted with care and precision. You can really taste the passion and expertise behind each bite.
Already dreaming about my next visit. Easily one of my favorite sushi experiences in the Mission.“

“I’ve been coming here for years to meet w/family & friends to celebrate or anytime just because or to unwind in the comfy lounge & experience MKT Bar’s excellent service you find in a Four Seasons & the drinks are simply the best! Today was my daughter’s boyfriend’s 1st time here & he understood 💯 why we love MKT Bar & he is an awesome bartender!“

“I love Mediterranean food and this place is fantastic! Every dish we tried was amazing and their whiskey sour is consistently excellent and never disappoints. I’ve returned several times, and the food quality is always so good. But it’s not ideal for date nights, as most evenings feel like team events with large groups, making it quite loud and crowded“

“A real gem! I’ve ordered take out here multiple times and dined in, both experiences are 5 stars.

Service staff is incredibly kind, quick and attentive. They really create a wonderful atmosphere for guests. Food is also amazing - a large menu with plenty of options and all of them delicious.“

“Great food and service ! Love the ambience and variety offerings“

“Great experience!great food! family oriented.. takes you back to your roots. We had a huge group. we all tried something different, and we shared everything. it was all delicious. for dessert we had the churros with the Mexican melted chocolate ...delicious!!!!“

“Best sushi in the city. The chefs are super talented and the waitstaff are always great. Food is top notch. Good selection for different fish and apps. I usually go for omakase, but sometimes the kira kira or ninja roll. The atmosphere is not too loud. You can usually find parking within a couple blocks.“

“Easily our favourite restaurant in San Francisco! We always bring our family and friends here. They have the most delicious, fresh and innovative dishes here. And their service is great! We love the pork chop, Cornish hen, and lamb roti. We love everything on the menu really. Highly recommend!“

“Absolute favorite neighborhood bar! Drinks, food and vibes are always amazing ❤️✨

EDIT: I love Asiento even more now, after we hosted our wedding afterparty here! Debi, the owner, is an absolute rockstar. She was so incredibly helpful throughout our planning process, and genuinely cares about your event and guests. She specifically brought custom meals to guests with dietary restrictions, engaged with our friends, and was so fun and attentive at the same time. This place is such a gem and I’m so grateful to Debi and her team for creating such a wonderful bar. Everyone raved about the cocktails and food! Whether you just want a night out or want to throw a party…Asiento is the best!“

“Thank you, Le Petit Paris 75, for welcoming the Richard Crook trio to your delightful club. Always a friendly atmosphere, amazing cocktails, and awesome music line ups!“

“Amazing, the nicest people fells like family in here“

“Best sushi in the Marina District!“

“Excellent food and service“

“First brewery of the day and what an excellent neighborhood brew pub sitting on the corner of Bryant St and Cesar Chavez St. A lot to choose from so we went high ABV with the Hazed & Confused Double Hazy IPA at 9%. We both enjoyed it.“

“Absolutely delicious! This restaurant is Halal. We ordered the Chicken platter and the Lamb and Beef combo wrap with Hummus. It was delicious and the quantity was large as well. The wrap was stuffed with meat and the platter was as well. Definitely recommend.“

“Happy hour menu is so good. The skewer platter is a great meal and also much love to the agedashi tofu. I drank a lot of hot sake and enjoyed just hanging out. I would avoid the beef tongue because it was a bit dry. The wagyu beef skewer was spot on.“

“good food, great all you can drink menu! totally worth it. the new owner has really turned this place around, and really takes pride in his food. cannot recommend it enough. i recommend the lion king roll, symphony roll, ballet roll, the zenpo karaage, and especially the eggplant“

“Okay, honestly really good food. My wife and I had the penne pesto, I added the grilled chicken and also asked for some Parmesan and red pepper flakes on the side. The pesto was tasty and the pasta was nicely cooked, the chicken was also super tasty. Highly recommend if you need a meal!

Only ding is that the music from the neighboring convenience mart could be heard contrasting the music played in vino volo.“

“We had the most wonderful dinner tonight at Noren Izakaya! Everything was fantastic from start to finish! From the service to the cocktails to the variety of food, to the dessert! Japanese yakitori and grilled street food and even sashimi! My new favorite! A must if you live or are visiting San Francisco! Oh! And tonight is not the night to skip dessert! 😘“

“Great food. I’ve been coming here for years and it’s still one of my favorite tapas places in San Francisco“

“Josh and Jace made our night! Thank you for the hospitality ��“

“Definitely a great spot! It’s certainly not guaranteed that you’ll have a spot, but our group of 4 managed to get seats. Our server, Don was a great host and made us feel comfortable and not rushed at all. You’re much more likely to find seats as a smaller group, but it’s worth checking it out.“

“Today was my first time coming here and I really enjoyed the experience. I had the stuffed eggplant for lunch and it comes with rice and side salad. For those of you looking for healthy options, this is the place. I'm definitely coming here again.“
