- JJacquesSan Francisco Bay Area •5 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoAlways a delight to have dinner at Mathilde's French Bistrot. My French-Canadian family was impressed and Lena, the owner and restaurateur, was warm and welcoming. The steak frites was cooked just right, and my parents enjoyed their Halibut and Duck confit. The risotto exploded with flavor when my wife shared a taste with me. The ambience in either the patio or main dining room is pleasant, roomy enough to give a sense of privacy to each table/party, and we could talk to each other without having to raise our voices since the playlist of French chansons acted as pleasant accompaniment rather than loud headliner. I highly recommend you have a meal there before it closes for good on 12/31/2024. Sad to see them go...More infoMathilde French BistroPrice: Very Expensive• French• SOMA•4.8
- MMadisonSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 7 days agoTaksim was incredible! Turks are some of the most hospitable people you will ever meet. The service was wonderful and we felt so taken care of. It was our anniversary and they gave us complementary Prosecco! We got the tasting menu which is extremely fairly priced. Every single thing was amazing. Favorites were the ezme crunch, blackened cauliflower, crispy shrimp, mantı, and the branzino- so fresh and perfectly crispy skin.

- AAraceliSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review4.0Dined on 19 Oct 2024This is a hidden gem. I live close by and had never been here before. I celebrated my birthday with pitchers of margaritas that were perfect. The food was delicious but would benefit from more options. The mole enchiladas were delicious. The flan was also delicious. I will come again.More infoBuena Vida CantinaPrice: Moderate• Contemporary Mexican• SOMA•4.3
