One of my favorite San Francisco restaurants! Delicious cocktails and I really love the $9 martinis on Thursdays. I ordered the pork chop for the first time and it was delicious. Really flavorful and the broccolini and mashed potatoes were the perfect pairing.

Beautiful restaurant and delicious food! Bug be warned about Lakeshore Ave. Left and my car windows were smashed in. I knew better to have anything in the car. But apparently that didn’t matter. I’ll never be returning bc the area just isn’t good, sadly.
