    We had a fairly simple meal, Steak Frites and S & S Salad. Both were split, bringing the meal into alignment with our appetites. Our red wines, a zinfandel and a pinot noir, we both very nice and fitting for our meal. Our server, and I am sorry to have not gotten her name, was enthusiastic and helpful. My one criticism is the noise level. My companion is legally blind, and I had to read the choices to her, shouting so she could hear. I think the room has too many hard surfaces.

    We had the market fish which was Salmon, Steak & Frites, Scallops and 2 orders of Pork Chops All of the dishes were very good, the Pork Chops are exceptional. Service was very good, we were celebrating a birthday and appreciated the complimentary chocolate cake which was also very good. Only downside is the noise level, we intentionally sat away from the kitchen, but the noise level is still too high. Difficult to talk with your guests.

    First time at S&S, even though its been open for a few years. Service was outstanding, the staff really took care of us by looking out for our allergies and asking the kitchen when the more esoteric details were unknown. Service was attentive but not intrusive. The food was well cooked and plated attractively. Flavors were muted though and I felt the there was some "finish" missing. For example, the potato appetizer we ordered as a split slide, needed both the sauce since the roasting dried out the veg and needed some salt sprinkled on top to add pop. As with everything in 2025, costs are up.. and value decreasing with the rising prices. Decent value for the times. One app + One entree = $65. We'll visit again when we are looking for something a short drive away with a cocktail and wine selection.

    Best meal I’ve had there (scallops risotto), good service, good ambience but, yes, got noisier as it filled up.

    Staff was very proactive about confirming allergies at the moment we got water, and followed through by confirming specific dish modifications several times before we could even ask. The food was incredible, not just in terms of the flavors but also the quality of the ingredients. It was wonderful all around.

    The space is nice and open feeling. The cocktails were great. We did not love a couple dishes and we found the menu to be extremely meat-centric. Maybe that is just the way it is there, but we fine dine regularly and always get 2 or 3 vegetarian entrees and maybe one meat one. this place had nothing vegetarian! So we think they need to work on that. We will go back maybe in 6 months and check it out again.

    We've eaten here twice and both experiences were great. Our server Sergio was wonderful and Patty is the friendliest human alive, she waited on our group at the Table and I was pleasantly surprised to also see her at this sister restaurant. We've tried a variety of dishes, with our dining groups - from steak to scallops to pasta to ahi tostadas. Everything has been very good, including the cocktails. When something isn't perfect, they make it right. We ordered the special Dungeness crab cake appetizer which was not exactly to our liking, and to our surprise, the server did not charge us for it. We will definitely be back again, it is becoming our go-to restaurant.
