    The food and service was excellent. The appetizers were delicious. We celebrated a birthday there and the staff brought a very special desert with a candle. We never had an empty glass or a delay in service. Staff was very attentive. Will definitely go back.

    John’s Grill is one of my most favorite restaurants in SF. The staff are efficient and friendly. The ambiance is great, and I enjoy taking first-timers to this gem. The food is great, and my favorite is Jack LaLanne seafood salad with a glass of Chardonnay. Steaks and pasta dishes are great too! Make a toast or two to Hammett, Bogart, Astor, Greenstreet etc. Save a bit of time to check out The Maltese Falcon and other film noir items upstairs. Enjoy the day!

    Highly recommend this restaurant! Food was absolutely outstanding! Started with the house salad, spinach salad with a fabulous balsamic dressing and walnuts sprinkled on top. Then had the pappadelle pasta with shrimp. Wonderful creamy pesto sauce. My companion had the lasagna which came in a cute casserole dish. She said it was fabulous! Also, the bread was really fresh, and I liked the fact that oil and vinegar were left in decorative bottles on the table. Great service! Cute ambience. I’ll definitely be back.

    this is probably one of the best vegan restaurant in the bay area. I have been going there for almost a year and the food quality stays high. If you love mushrooms this is the place where you should go. I must say, you really don't need to be vegan to enjoy eating there. Our waiter is as always very attentive and considerate. To summarize: It's delicious, the service is impeccable, the setting is joyful, and the prices are very reasonable.
