Excellent, I've never been disappointed by the food, service or ambience of the restaurant, and considering the quality overall I think their prices are reasonable, and unlike some other cities I don't feel gouged afterward by paying for the validated parking in the seemingly safe enough, clean and well-lighted parking garage. As for the music, Yoshi's is the best intimate venue by far in the S.F. Bay Area, every act they books is top notch, and the sound quality in there is superb regardless of where you sit. Normally it's difficult for businesses to coax even faint praise for me, so for me to take time out to write a glowing review means A LOT. Trust me.

Great atmosphere and service. We liked most of the food, some dishes more than others. Our favorites were the Piquillos, Croquetas, and the Sangria to drink. The desserts all looked great and we enjoyed one but I don’t recall the name. We recommend and will be back.
