We loved our night at Osso Steakhouse. With the exception of one person who did not like the way his steak was prepared, everyone else thought the food was super yummy. Crab cakes - exceptional. Branzino - exceptional. Petite Filet - perfect. Appetizers (I'm looking at you cheese bread!), salads and sides - quite memorable. Wine list - fun to peruse and with the help of our waiter, we found a lovely pinot that worked for the table. We all loved the waiter and the other staff - so warm and friendly and helpful. We left happy. Very happy. When I am next in SF, I will return.

Amazing lamb and ribeye. Drinks were amazing. Just a hint Champagne should always be served in a flute not a wine glass! Would have like to see a pre fixed option but al carte was good enough to share for 2 people.

We were celebrating our 18th wedding anniversary, Originally I was nervous because they sat us at the patio bar area but it was heated and blankets were provided. Our waiter, whose name I can't remember was pretty great, he checked on us, kept our wine glass filled, and did not steer me wrong with the espresso martini. The food was also delicious, we ordered the tomahawk, Brussel sprouts, mushrooms, poke, Caesar salad, and black truffle mac n cheese. everything was delicious. would definitely go back again.
