“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!“

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

“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! 👍🏿“

“Going to bansang has been a topic of discussion between us for the past six months. I’m actually never getting over this meal

Mulwhe noodles were recommended by the waiter and they were the perfect first bite. I really enjoyed the spicy sauce and the banchan that they plopped on top. Normally not a fan of cold noodles but I ate this up

Uni scallop toast was phenomenal. Bread was soft on the inside and slightly crunchy on the outside, and the oceanic flavor from the uni, scallops, and seaweed puree was a nice punch in the face.

I liked the Korean twist on the steak tartare — Asian pear and sesame oil! It’s paired with seaweed which further brought out the flavors

Kimchi fried rice 😻😻😻 best dish. Best thing my mouth has ever experienced. So spicy, lots of meat, omg. Everyone deserves to eat this at least once in their life

I also loved the gochujang black cod. Incredibly tender and a bit sweet from the sauces

Miso marinated pork would’ve been even better if we weren’t on the verge of combustion. But regardless we still agreed that it was a really great dish for being the mid meat that is pork.

All the deserts were just wow. My fav was the pear sorbet 🍐“

“A delightful neighborhood venue 😊❗️“

“This place is a good spot, but I strongly recommend getting transportation to and from there since the surrounding area is sketchy, especially at night.

Great atmosphere and the pawn master was very funny. I didn't know you should bring something to pawn when I made the reservation, but they won't turn you away if you have nothing.

It doesn't have a full bar, but the food was delicious, especially the octopus. I felt the service could have been a bit more attentive. It almost seemed like no one stopped at the table asking how we were doing or if we would like to order anything else.“

“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.“

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

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

“great mediterranean spot in sf with a super welcoming vibe. i got the octopus and the cold dip mezze and both were so well-prepared. the bread was fresh and warm, and the dips were packed with flavor — couldn’t stop eating them. they also have a great wine list that pairs perfectly with the food. would come back in a heartbeat, especially for a cozy dinner or group meal.“

“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.“

“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“

“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.“

“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.“

“We stayed in San Francisco for 10 days and went to eat breakfast here almost every day. We tried almost everything on the menu and it was amazing. It's har to chose a favourite but I'd go with Rosemary Chicken With Bacon and BLTA. The juice was also very, very good.“

“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!“

“Best sushi in the Marina District!“

“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!“

“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 this neighborhood sushi place. The quality is high. The food is fresh. It never busy. We love the chicken karage, lion king, 49er, deluxe California and the unagu don.

Focus on fish. I would not recommend the ramen.“

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

“Really nice local joint to check out. The food was great and the bartender and owner were really nice. Good options for non drinkers and vegetarians. Very spacious. Looking forward to coming back for trivia and music. Forgot to take a pic before I was almost done with the food, it was too good to let sit.

Vegetarian options: The spinach balls were really good

Dietary restrictions: Most of the food was dairy free, lots of veg options“

“Excellent food and service“

“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“

“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!“

“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.“

“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! 😘“

“We ordered the combo plate with lamb, beef and chicken shawarma served with rice and salad. It was freshly made to order, with flavorful tender meat, yummy freshly sliced salad, and well cooked rice. Large portion for a very reasonable price. We all loved it and will definitely be back! Awesome healthy addition to the Stonestown food court.“

“Overall it was normal food.
I had high expectations because of the good ratings, but it was a bit more disappointing than I expected. However, when I revisited it, it was different.
I think it’s worth looking forward to the different types of food~^^“

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

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

“I recently had a delayed flight, which turned out to be a blessing in disguise when I stopped by Vino Volo for wine flights. The selection was absolutely delicious, and the service was top-notch! The guy who assisted me truly went above and beyond, making sure I had everything I needed for a pleasant experience. I left feeling relaxed and happy, despite the travel hiccup! Highly recommend this cozy spot for anyone looking to enjoy a glass of quality wine!“

“Great experience and very good service. Very relaxing place. Not too loud. Very low key and romantic spot as well or simply a place to come with a friend. Not for big groups because seating is extremely limited. It is self seating. We had charcuterie board and red wine. Not disappointed. Pricey, but worth it for the vibe and view you get.“

“We found this bar at the last minute before closing thank goodness. They have 4 big tv for sports and a Great selection of beers and wines. The Bartender Jason was very helpful and welcoming. So glad we are not having to deal with those stupid annoying kiosks popping up everywhere else. Would definitely recommend stopping here while in SFO.“

“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.“

“Amazing service. DELICIOUS food!!!!! Absolutely loved the ceviche and the steak w chimichurri....I can’t wait to go back! Great looking place w very good prices as well! Thank you!!!“
