Best Seasonal Restaurants in Bayview

A unique experience. If you are not a huge eater, I would stick to the “dim sum” plates. A great place to go if you want a variety of food and like to share plates. Fun atmosphere

Once again NOPA delivers on our dining experience. The food was delicious. We had wood baked beans, winter vegetable tagine , braised greens, and little gems salad. Service ( Felix & Rachel ) was very attentive. We will be going back soon.

The food was DELICIOUS!!!! Every dish that we ordered was outstanding. Went there for a friend’s birthday dinner, it was 5 of us. We ordered the focaccia which was divine, also the suppli which my gosh was out of this world. Then we got 3 different pastas: caramelle which had a tangy citrus oily sauce and the pasta filled with veggies just melted in your mouth. The gnocchi with truffle and Parmesan and I can say it was probably the BEST gnocchi I’ve had in a long time plus they were super generous with the truffle so HIGHLY recommend this dish. And lastly we got the Bigoli Nero which was exquisite and probably my favorite dish, and the Dungeness crab meat tasted super fresh. We also got the chicory pizza which was probably my least favorite dish as it didn’t wow me. It was tasty but nothing special about it. And for dessert we got the Tiramisu which didn’t disappoint. It was fresh, tasty, moist and the flavors well balanced. The service was A+ from the host which accommodated us to a table of 5 even when my resy was for 4 so that was amazing! To the servers who were super friendly and attentive, to the sommelier.

From the moment we stepped inside Saison, we knew we were in for something extraordinary. The atmosphere was both intimate and elegant, setting the perfect stage for what turned out to be one of the most memorable dining experiences we’ve ever had. Even before our visit, the Saison team reached out to inquire about any dietary restrictions or personal preferences we might have. Their willingness to accommodate and even modify the menu to suit our tastes was a testament to their dedication to providing an unparalleled dining experience. Each course demonstrated a meticulous balance of flavors and textures, with every bite revealing a delightful new surprise. The highlight of the evening for me was their trout—by far the best I’ve ever tasted. The delicate, melt-in-your-mouth texture along with that "crisp" skin, it was just flawless. Also the desserts stole my heart. Nasir, a friend who works as a pastry chef there, crafted sweet creations that felt more like edible art than simple treats. His imaginative flair and precise execution turned each dessert into a decadent escape to a world of pure delight. The staff was warm, knowledgeable, and attentive, guiding us through each course with thoughtful explanations. From the careful consideration of dietary needs to the seamless execution of every dish, Saison delivered an impeccable, artful experience I would recommend to any food lover. I can’t wait to return and see what new culinary wonders await.

Kokkari never disappoints. I eat here regularly for business but this dinner was with my husband. We had the baked Feta with cherry tomatoes and the feta salad to start. All the starters are amazing and it is always difficult to choose among them. My husband had the lamb special - a whole lamb was roasted on site in the large fireplace spit in the dining room, and I had the lamb souvlaki. Both dishes were amazing. But the thing that sets Kokkari apart is the service. The servers have all been there for years and have a deft sense of engagement and timing. if you have questions, they are knowledgeable about every aspect of the menu and wine list. If you need to conduct business or have a romantic meal, they move around you with elegance and grace. We will go back as often as they will have us.
