This is our annual holiday luncheon and it did not disappoint. Ralph’s service was Impeccable and the food was delicious. The soup of the day (porcini mushrooms with chestnut) was divine. Looking forward to next year at table # 45. 🦋

Hersol was an exceptional server. He genuinely cared about our experience and provided bespoke service. Not to mention the food was delicious and the restaurant has a great atmosphere.

Best French food in San Francisco. The onion tart is a must-order: decadent caramelized onions in a delightfully crispy pastry, all topped with goat cheese. The braised oxtail is a beauty: meat so tender it falls off the bone in an irresistible red wine sauce. Desserts are obligatory. The chocolate mousse is airy and rich but not over-the-top. The ice creams and sorbets, all made in-house, are masterful. Cocktails are great too. Leland is an expert bartender and he managed to chat with us about his favorite cocktails all while tending to the lively happy hour at the bar/lounge. His wine pairing suggestions—which were very reasonably priced—were very helpful too. The service is top-notch—Christie, the owner, is friendly and personable and made us feel welcome from the moment she stopped by our table. The atmosphere is elegant—after all this is a fine dining establishment—but also approachable and warm. Overall a great and memorable meal. To call this restaurant a bistro almost does a disservice to the expertness of the food here, which is crafted with such refinement that it doesn’t feel too out-of-step with the two-star Michelin heritage of Chef Chemel’s former restaurant.

Met up with some friends, it was our first time here and what an amazing view. The vibe was great, food was amazing! We were given the option to sit inside or outside. We chose to sit outside, even though it was cold the outdoor heaters made it comfortable. Overall great atmosphere, will definitely come back with more friends!

A very chic spot. On the eighth floor, seemingly “above it all.” A worthy successor to the now closed Hakkasan.
