It came out about $550 for two people with the wine pairing. The staff were wonderful and the space is cute, but that’s about where the positives end. The food was extremely basic, something you would almost expect to find in a diner. It was clearly pre-made several hours in advance, and some of the seafood had a little leathery crust on top, like they’d been sitting out or in the fridge for a while. Unacceptable for the price point. The bouillabaisse was basically just seafood sitting on a plate colored with a tiny bit of broth, but there wasn’t enough to use a spoon. The starter salad was a lettuce heart cut in quarters with some mayo-based thick dressing. The wine pairing included 2 to 3 ounce pours, which, for the extra $65 charge, was woefully inadequate. We really wanted to like this place, but we are never coming back for dinner!","rating":{"food":2,"service":5,"ambience":4,"value":1,"noise":"MODERATE","overall":3,"__typename":"ReviewRating"},"user":{"numOfApprovedReviews":2,"nickname":"Anna","metro":{"metroId":4,"displayName":"San Francisco","__typename":"Metro"},"initials":"A","isVip":null,"isLoggedInUser":false,"profileColor":"ICECREAM","profilePhoto":{"photoBySize":null,"__typename":"PublicDinerProfilePhoto"},"__typename":"ReviewUser"},"helpfulness":{"up":0,"down":0,"score":0,"__typename":"ReviewHelpfulness"},"publicRestaurantReply":null,"submittedDateTime":"2025-02-17T21:22:10Z","dinedDateTime":"2025-02-14T19:00:00-08:00","type":"OPENTABLEVERIFIED","fromPreviousConcept":false,"highlight":null,"photos":[],"__typename":"ReviewSearchResult"},{"reviewId":"OT-732781-91765-120132795502","text":"Valentine menu was a joke !\nFood felt not fresh\nCharged 150 per person\nWine tasting was not worth the money ($60)\nDefinitely not recommended","rating":{"food":1,"service":3,"ambience":1,"value":1,"noise":"QUIET","overall":1,"__typename":"ReviewRating"},"user":{"numOfApprovedReviews":2,"nickname":"Eric","metro":{"metroId":15,"displayName":"San Diego","__typename":"Metro"},"initials":"E","isVip":true,"isLoggedInUser":false,"profileColor":"PUMPKIN","profilePhoto":{"photoBySize":null,"__typename":"PublicDinerProfilePhoto"},"__typename":"ReviewUser"},"helpfulness":{"up":0,"down":0,"score":0,"__typename":"ReviewHelpfulness"},"publicRestaurantReply":null,"submittedDateTime":"2025-02-15T22:58:17Z","dinedDateTime":"2025-02-14T17:45:00-08:00","type":"OPENTABLEVERIFIED","fromPreviousConcept":false,"highlight":null,"photos":[],"__typename":"ReviewSearchResult"},{"reviewId":"OT-732781-91279-150106401015","text":"When we go to San Francisco this is our favorite lunch spot.","rating":{"food":5,"service":5,"ambience":5,"value":4,"noise":"QUIET","overall":5,"__typename":"ReviewRating"},"user":{"numOfApprovedReviews":1,"nickname":"William","metro":{"metroId":8,"displayName":"New York City","__typename":"Metro"},"initials":"W","isVip":null,"isLoggedInUser":false,"profileColor":"PLUM","profilePhoto":{"photoBySize":null,"__typename":"PublicDinerProfilePhoto"},"__typename":"ReviewUser"},"helpfulness":{"up":0,"down":0,"score":0,"__typename":"ReviewHelpfulness"},"publicRestaurantReply":null,"submittedDateTime":"2025-02-19T22:00:51Z","dinedDateTime":"2025-01-26T11:00:00-08:00","type":"OPENTABLEVERIFIED","fromPreviousConcept":false,"highlight":null,"photos":[],"__typename":"ReviewSearchResult"},{"reviewId":"OT-732781-91501-190004552959","text":"A somewhat different breakfast entree - smoked polenta with pork, cilantro and seasonings. Delicious and unique. Almost better still - the best hot tea I've ever had in a restaurant. The tea itself was superior English breakfast blend but it was served truly HOT in a double-walled metal teapot with loose tea leaves infused in a basket, and the second large ceramic cup of tea was as hot and perfectly brewed as the first. As an inveterate tea-drinker, believe me when I say this was a completely singular presentation in my (usually somewhat disappointing) experience.
