    We went there for SF week to try it out. Appetizers were good, our main was just slightly odd as we got the lamb shoulder which was essentially a huge piece of meat with tiny garnishes and without any sides or vegetables. Desserts were fine, but nothing special. Cocktails were unfortunately not good. It didn’t feel like the service experience matched up with the already included 20% tip. This experience has made us not want to come back.

    The food was decent, particularly a tarragon-forward stone fruit burrata on toast. Entrees were hearty and luscious, if a bit indelicate for the price point. Weirdest thing was the lighting. With the bright lobby and dim restaurant lights it felt like we were eating in the dark, on a perfunctory stage set. They should turn up the chandelier lights or look at some kind of curtain dividing the restaurant from the hotel lobby. Then there was the service, which was idiosyncratic and obviously didn’t know which way it wanted to go between being a lobby bar (order incrementally, focus on drinks and shared plates) vs being a restaurant (order a meal upfront and customer expects service with timing). The team were personable and friendly and I feel for them with the format of the place. It did look like the back room had better lighting so maybe if dinner guests were seated there and the lobby was treated more as a bar, it would work better. But the lighting and color story are still hella problematic.

    Enjoyed an excellent lunch in a very beautiful setting. This hotel's dining area has several different size rooms and very comfortable furniture. Great for a business lunch or group. Service was very good as well. It was our second visit - last time was for dinner - and just as good.

    Great setting! Will recommend to all. The flavors were wonderful. We especially loved the appetizers. The tempura vegetables and the stone fruit with burrata. Yummy! We will definitely be back.

    The New York Steak was tiny! It was the most expensive item on the menu and it was the smallest!! We asked to exchange the mashed potatoes that came with the steak for a salad and they never brought it.

    Great stop before a show at the Curran. Reservation for 3 was seated by the fireplace right away. Beautiful room. Had the most amazing espresso martini. Tasted several wines and enjoyed the Orin Zin and the Geriche (sp?) Cab. Shared the lamb shank, mushroom risotto and the Brussels sprouts. Triple wow. Service was excellent.
