    This is a favorite restaurant of mine, come here often. Both food and service are outstanding. I love the ambiance and the fact that I can choose between an equally great indoor and outdoor dining experience. I particularly like the lamb chops and have no idea how the chef has kale taste so good! The zucchini cakes are excellent and so are the lamb riblets, truth be told I've enjoyed every meal I've had here and so has my family. My sons tell me the ribeye steak and the scallops are great too. In most restaurants I pass on the bread but the rolls here are so yummy, it's impossible not to have at least one! John always has me feel welcome and the service is excellent. Parking can sometimes be a challenge so best to come on the earlier side. Highly recommend!

    RE: lunch. Portions were generous. Service staff was polite and attentive. Food was nicely seasoned but not "over-dressed" or dull (which can be the case, for example, in salads that are included.) Fries were to die for! very thinly cut, so the crispiness, not mushy inside, prevailed. And they were obviously fresh from the pan. I will definitely be introducing friends to this restaurant and hope they have success on Castro Street, where many establishments don't seem to be making it.
