Perfect dinner - delicious pasta, fish and burger meals thoroughly enjoyed by our party of 3. The service by our waiter Dickie was professional, delightful, attentive with fun humor too. His back up crew was efficient in serving as well as clearing. We had a most enjoyable evening at this great old time San Francisco restaurant and we look forward to returning hopefully soon.

We were back for the first time since reopening. NBR is a SF favorite for us. We have been coming here for years. The remodel is lovely. Samuel, our server was charming and gracious…service was impeccable! Our only complaint was the BLARING, OUT OF CHARACTER MUSIC…felt like we were in a disco and not a tasteful restaurant! We asked the manager to address the music and he said it was the owner’s prerogative to pick the music and not his which was a rather flip response…nothing changed and we could hardly hear ourselves talk!
