    It was a bad night for the team there. We had three different people serving our table. On one occasion one person took all our starter plates and cutlery ahead of the mains coming, a different person brought over the missing starter and apologized it was late but left us with the starter and no cutlery. Then a different person came over and gave us cutlery for our mains.

    Overall ok, nice interior design, good food, but several downsides. I imagined this spot to be great for a date night restaurant. The interior design is great, but it’s small/cramped and loud. Overall, it’s more like a fancy bar with good food, but not ideal for a romantic date-night restaurant. Prices are a bit high for a nice bar, and seem to reflect trying to be a nice restaurant. Service was mediocre, again more like a bar; they take your order and bring your food but don’t check in or refill drinks without being flagged down.

    For a business dinner the service was atrocious. I was embarrassed I chose the restaurant. Wine bottle value was good. Food was fine, but overshadowed by the service.

    The food didn’t taste great. I’ve come to expect higher quality cuisine from comparable SF restaurants
