Verjus was so amazing. The food, decor, and service was impeccable. One of my most memorable nights dining out in SF 🌁

Walking by and did not expect anything but the foods were delicious, especially must try the chocolate mousse for dessert.

Unfortunately, this was one of the more disappointing dining experiences I’ve had in quite some time. I arrived shortly after 4:00 PM and added my name to the waitlist. I wasn’t seated for about 30 minutes, which I understood, it was busy but the experience didn’t improve from there.
I was seated in a very tight space facing a brick wall. As a solo diner, I didn’t mind the setting too much, as I planned to journal and enjoy a quiet glass of wine. However, what followed felt discourteous. The manager walked past to deliver another table’s order and kicked my chair without offering any acknowledgment, no “excuse me” or apology. Shortly after, my server did the same thing, again without any recognition.
While these moments may seem small, they left me feeling invisible and unwelcome. For an establishment of this caliber, I expected a higher level of attentiveness and basic courtesy.
Ultimately, the food and overall experience felt unsatisfactory. Food was just okay.

I’ve been to Verjus three times—the first for dinner, the second for my husband’s holiday party, and most recently this week to celebrate my husband’s birthday. Every time the food, service, and ambiance have been incredible. What an absolute gem. To boot, I reached out asking if it would be possible to post a birthday message for my husband on the Marquis the day before our reservation and they were very accommodating. It made his night when he saw it and everyone was so sweet and warm and wished him a happy birthday all night. We got the best table right by the kitchen. It’s hard to get a reservation here but VERY worth the effort. Everything is sheer perfection.

What an amazing meal. From start to finish, amazingly well executed. I loved that you’re able to order a lot of small dishes. The desert was incredible too. We had the rake clams, the kampachi and mussels. Just look at the photos. You have to get the omelette too. And leave room for desert.

We visited just before valentine’s Day and really enjoyed the incredible food, especially the chicken liver pâté and wine. The service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere was lively. However, it was a bit too loud for a romantic date. we’d still happily come back, maybe with friends next time.

Intimate, stylish Jackson Square wine bar with standout French-California bites and a fantastic natural-leaning wine list. The razor clams were briny perfection, the omelette Boursin was pure comfort, and the duck confit melted in your mouth. Service was friendly, sharp, and spot-on with pairings. Cozy yet lively vibe—perfect for a relaxed date or catching up with friends. One of SF’s best right now. Go if you can! 🍷

5 This wine bar is the epitome of romance. No wonder it’s French-inspired. It’s dark, moody, candle-lit, wooden notes, and just so oolala. Very charming and warm with some wine hall energy. If you want romance on a date, take them here. That being said, I’m not sure it’s canoodling appropriate, maybe light pecks only. I think the wine list by glass is actually a bit limited? Not as good as Union Larder or Golden Sardine. Overall, great environment
Sommelier Danny was a gem, so welcoming and knowledgeable! I only knocked two stars from the service because the hostess acted like it was a chore to move us from the smallest table in the room ( a slab of wood nailed to the wall) to a proper one when we had multiple dishes, a bottle of wine and there was a full empty table available :( this left a sour taste in my mouth. When I go to an establishment wanted to have fun and lay top dollar for the food and drinks I would at least expect to feel welcomed and accommodated.
Maybe she had a bad night, I don't want to assume bad intent.

We absolutely loved the classic French foods here. The main entrees were more impressive than the smaller bites. Our favorites included the omelette, machego sausage (the bed of broccolini was amazing, and the dessert.
The service was top notch. Our only complaints were that there was no food menu and we had to crane our necks to see the sign on the wall.

I really wanted to love Verjus. While the atmosphere and overall vibe is a 10/10, and the food was good, the portion sizes were so small for what you pay for it just didn’t feel worth it. This is also a small thing but they brought us sparkling water to the table that was completely flat, which is something I normally wouldn’t really care about but then charged us $16 for it. This is a very nice restaurant but I can’t say that I would recommend unless you are not very hungry and prepared to spend quite a lot of money.

Came here for lunch with a girlfriend. A tad on the pricier side but worth it in my opinion - the quality of each course we got was incredible. Loved the vibe of the place too - felt like a passport to Paris. Will definitely be back to try their dinner!

Food is amazing! Wine is a little too expensive for the portion they pour :(
