Came here a year ago with a large group. We arrived early then too but they suggested that we sit at the bar if we wanted to order drinks before the back patio was at up for us.
Went last Saturday at 9, for SF Restaurant week. The plan was to have their 3 course dinner with Bavette Steak, a prime attraction (see menu attached). After placing the order and AFTER having the appetizer, we were informed the kitchen had run out of the steak!! Reluctantly, we both chose the Tuna instead. Minutes later, we were told that they had ONE Tuna left, so I HAD to take the Pork chop. The server did offer an extra dish on the house, but there literally isn’t anything else we wanted - just went with some Crab dumplings (very small, do not recommend) to get on with it.
The pork chop was not something I’d ever have again.
The ONLY good thing about it all was the appetizer (in hindsight should have had it as the extra dish) - the chicken liver pate was exquisite!
It’s VERY poor form to inform the guests AFTER serving them the appetizer that you’ve run out of the entree!
I ordered a burger, but a bit disappointed. It was dry, wasn’t juicy and overcooked. Steak wasn’t really good as expected.
Prices are reasonable.
Service was good, it was a main reason I gave 4 stars. Overall experience was ok. Will come back again if I go to Castro neighborhood.
I went for the fresh spaghetti with Starbelly bacon: the noodles were extra thick and fun to eat, but I do prefer my bacon crispier than their half-bacon, half-pork belly approach. Good sauce, good cheese.
We finished it off with lillet-soaked cherries in an arborio rice pudding. Did the cherries make any sense with the pudding? No! But I'm always going to be happy shoveling rice pudding in my mouth.
Would go again!
The patty was overcooked outside, there is no souse at all in the burger so it was dry. Tomato was tasteless. French fries was also overcooked. Do not recommend.
