Amazing!! A San Francisco must.
Service was awesome. Lunch recommendations were on point! Food was excellent!!
Highly attentive and fast service during the food rush. Informative about the drinks and selections, and helpful with recommendations for the dishes. Loved the baked oysters and the chef's choice of oyster of the day. During happy hour, if you don't have reservations, they do take walk-ins for the bar area and patio, depending on how busy they are..
