Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Hyde Park

Been forever since we have been to Nada. Looking for something Mexican and different after all the holiday meals we went to Nada. Restaurant was a little light on traffic when we got there, but the crowd picked up. Service was very friendly and helpful, but our food came out WAY to fast. We ordered appetizers and were going to split an entree. The apps came as they sat down our drinks. All good, we were hungry. Before we had tried the apps, here comes the entree. Start to finish we were there 45 mins. The food was great, really was impressed with the mixed fajitas, but our little table didn’t have enough space for everything at once. Would def be back but will order at our own pace.

We enjoyed a wonderful anniversary dinner at Via Vite. Our server, Katrina, ensured to make us feel special and did intentional things like bringing us prosecco to top off our evening. Managerial staff was visible and checked in with us, wishing a happy anniversary, and comped our dessert (ricotta donuts!). We enjoyed our drinks, appetizers, pastas, and desserts. Katrina created a great pace of coursing of all of our dishes and kept our table clear, making sure our conversations weren’t interrupted. Thank you again Via Vite for creating such a wonderful dining experience.

My wife and I went there for a date night and reserved the greenhouse room on the patio and were treated like kings and queens. We had the most kind server and the experience as well as the food was superb.

This place has become our favorite place for celebrating anything. Food is delicious and service is always great. Brewery beer on point. My husband loves the salad selection and I think the calamari is the best. Parking is also convenient since it's under the restaurant.

Three of us shared a special reunion dinner. The initial hosts were quite polished, yet I felt my guest's attire and my signature (SF Asian Art museum) baseball cap was a possible issue, so I was not surprised when we were sized up and sat in the back/vault. The back was GREAT. More privacy and tons more quiet than the front. The final server we had was THE BEST. He helped us with the menu quickly and seamlessly (he really knew his stuff.) His friendliness was NATURAL, not forced. We were not rushed. Plus he was the perfect balance between professional and friendly. Formal dining etiquette (re clearing and food delivery) were all present and perfect. Yes, this was rather pricy, but I will definitely return, esp for a special occasion. And our server deserved his 30% tip, even if provided by a guy in a baseball cap with casually-dressed guests. ; )
