   I really wanted to like this place because the food was fantastic and the ambience was lovely. The dishes were fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented—honestly, The vibe was also spot-on, cozy and inviting with a nice balance of energy without feeling too noisy. However, the service completely ruined the experience. It took forever for anyone to greet us, and even longer to get our drinks and food. Felt like we were begging to be there Our server was clearly overwhelmed and seemed to forget about us multiple times throughout the meal. The worst part was when we asked for no tomatoes in one of the dishes due to dietary restrictions when the food was being served it was riddled with tomatoes the waiter proceeded to ask “oh were you allergic” I understand that places get busy, but the lack of attention and basic service when it was barely full was just unacceptable. I really hope they can get their act together with the service because with that kind of food and vibe, this place could be amazing. Until then, I’ll probably be looking for somewhere else to dine.

   Came here with a group of colleagues from San Diego. Ambience is amazing - outdoor patio area is simply epic. Will definitely be back when the weather warms up. Great happy hour and wine/cocktail options.

   Dirty Habit is a mainstay on the list of places to go to get late night food and drinks that’s vibey but also a chill time. The food is good, the drinks are good, and the milk bread is a must! The staff is friendly and easy going.

   Amazing food. Great venue and ambiance. Wish service was a little better but understandable being there close to closing time.

   We ordered ribeye and NY strip steaks - both outstanding. Sides were YUMMY. Cocktails were creative and STRONG. Friendly service. We went with reservations 5pm on a Friday and not too busy. We had our choice of seating. It was cold and rainy outside so we chose a huge booth ...how luxurious to take up so much space for just 2 people! Lovely ambience. I'm not a fan of SOMA so coming and going were not so pleasant but once inside all was very nice.

   We booked a reservation before 7 because there were no later reservations. The restaurant was nearly empty when we showed up. We asked to sit outside - most of the tables were labeled ‘Reserved’ but we’re never filled during our meal, and the heater next to us was broken. Service was very slow despite the number of guests, and the server seemed surprised when we asked to order food. The food and drinks were delicious, but could be better considering the price (be aware of the 5% markup fee). The location and ambience were good, but will likely not return as the experience felt unorganized.

   Great dinner experience downtown! Ask for an elevator keycard on your way to the 5th floor (not marked in the elevator). Unless raining, the outdoor seating has a nice lounge vibe, and heaters. Nice drinks and bar area. Food and service were great, with some accessible comfort foods that my kids recognized and loved, nice ambiance. This place deserves to do well!

   I think this a better place as a cocktail lounge vs a restaurant. The food was not exciting. The table next to us was dirty the whole entire we were there. The restaurant was nearly empty. I can see why it’s empty for a reason.

    Outside terrace seating is the best. It’s Restaurant Week and the set menu they offered was totally worth it. Drinks, appetizers, soup, salad came as soon as we ordered, but entrees were taking a long time. we had a movie to catch so I asked for entrees and desserts to be served together, and they obliged.
