Wow I could not be more disappointed in my lunch. Picked up my husband from work for a lunch date - headed to Anecdote because it looked clean and cute, simple menu, which means it should be good - especially considering the 4.5 star average review - though only 30+ reviews - but it has a view - so we went. Once we found the place (exit the garage, head left) we entered and were seated right away. The place had few tables full but for some reason we were put right next to a couple that were seemingly on a date. Dude was talking about all of his cars... anyway, strange choice of tables but whatev. The menu had a slim selection but we weren't surprised - husband chose the tuna melt (gonna be some tasty home made cooked tuna, good cheese...right?) and I picked the Asian salad - always a good choice WRONG! The tuna melt tasted as if it were from a can, but made yesterday, the bread was fine, but nothing exciting. Whatever, fishy but edible. Got the fries for extra $ (seriously? potato chips included?) and they were the best part of the meal - perfectly cooked and salted - well at least the normal sized fries were - there were about 4 steak fries, then 1 huge one, and then some mishapen pieces that seemed to have been from the end of the bag. The salad. BOOOORING. Seriously. The chicken was served on the side and was so overcooked and dry. The greens were old, with some yellow leaves included, and the dressing was inocuous. I was waiting for something to shine, but it was simply the worst salad that I have ever had. The mint leaves couldn't even save it. I ate my mandatory 8 bites and was done. Well, at least the company was good. Love hanging out with my husband for lunch dates - but we agree, we will never come here again - I don't know where the 4 and 5 star reviews are coming from. Maybe from the distant-yet-uber-clean bathrooms, or perhaps the bar upstairs is hopping in the evenings. Upstairs is also where you will find the view of the marina. At least they validated my parking ticket so parking was free. Yay.

Excellent place, first time in SanFrancisco and the hotel we rented didn’t had a restaurant to eat breakfast and I found this place just 3 minutes away and it was great. They have breakfast and lunch, the food it’s organic and everything natural. Everything was delicious and the food it’s worth the price. The portions are big and with outstanding flavor. The waitress “Yamilette” was super nice and she gave us lots of tips from the city and recommended places to go visit.

I have been here 3 to 4 times and the feeling is always the same. The food is OK, but never spectacular. The service is slow and often messy (they never know what the desert menu is, it takes 20-30 min for desert to arrive, and there is always a missing cappuccino). The last dish I had was a burger. It was probably the simplest (least complex) burger I have had (any additional toppings are at a cost). The BBQed bun was too Smokey such that it cut thru the flavor of the meat. The only thing this place has for is it's decor. If the chef needs tips on how to make a stellar burger, please get in touch.

High ceilings with large windows allowing natural light provide for an airy/spacious atmosphere??

Good ambience inside and they validate for parking. Service was good, food is okay. We did take a nice walk afterwards.

What a beautiful hidden gem in ssf! This place is absolutely gorgeous. Their food, service and ambiance is a total must try. Their location and view makes this place even better. Can't wait to be back!

Tommaso was the man! Good vibes, awesome drinks. Alexandra was one of the best servers I’m experienced. Very welcoming, great atmosphere.

Nice lunch spot! Went with a bunch of coworkers. Right on the water, next to parking (although parking is a bit tricky). Highly recommend booking a table in advance if you have a group, as there is very limited seating. but the seating it nicely spaced apart and very comfortable. Food was really good and I greatly appreciated all fo the gluten free options, including buns for the yummy burgers. Services was good, (but they seemed a bit busy). Menu has decent amont of options for a lunch spot, and portions were big and worth the prices. I highly recommend. We will come again for sure! They aso have gift certificates available, and a cute bar for happy hour upstairs, but very small space / no large groups.
Nice environment and pleasant service team. Wait for food was longer than expected. Lobster bisque was watery and didn't have much flavor and serving size was modest. Flatbread was good but small. All serving sizes are precious and modestly small. Burger was ordered medium rare, typical small grass fed patty, nearly impossible to cook medium rare. Overall just meh. This is a business spot for all the biotech companies in this area. Bill for lunch with service and no drinks was $100 for 2 people. We won't go back.

Food was abundant and delicious Had the chicken sausage, eggs,potatoes and pancakes Coffee was exempliary
This is a great place for a business lunch, or to meet a friend. It has a great ambience and empanadas are fantastic. The service was really really good and it central in the oyster point area.

Came for lunch and the only tables left were outside, which was ok for us. Servers were prompt with getting us menus and also with taking orders, but it took over 30 minutes to get our food. Guess the lunch rush is too much for the kitchen. I had the fish tacos and they were tasty, but small. Surprised that $16 only gets you two small tacos and no sides. Way overpriced if you ask me.
