  • We were seated promptly at the time of our reservation in the backroom upstairs, which took away from the ambiance. Come here in smaller parties - no more than 4 to be seated in the main area with the open kitchen or overlooking the party tunnel or crazy red laser chandelier. The hostesses are dressed in short, kinda tacky, black sweetheart dresses with sheer long sleeve mesh (think ice skating outfit). In the back room, I felt like I was in a conference or a library. I definitely do NOT recommend begin seated there (that's where they seat the boring old people or the parties with kids). Not everyone wanted to do the tasting menu but most of the people ordered a beef wellington (THIS DISH TAKES 45 MINUTES - OURS TOOK OVER AN HOUR). Mine was perfectly medium rare, whereas the person next to me had one that was overcooked. The layer of seasoning between the steak and flaky bread was salty and prominent. You couldn't miss it and some bites I wish I did since it was so salty. The sauteed spinach, mac and cheese and brussel sprouts with bacon were all pretty good. But really salty. I would say the sear foie gras with huckleberries and toasted almonds was my favorite dish. It was really delicious. We savored each bite as it is impossible in SF to get any seared foie gras! Next time I'd order this and the kobe beef tartar instead of a huge wellington. We came here for a birthday dinner and unfortunately, they do not provide any birthday dessert. We ordered her a chocolate grenache cake ($12 for a stingy slice) and the toffee cake and brown butter ice cream for ourselves. The latter was outstanding. Together with the French press coffee, which came with a trio of chocolate liqueur spoons, dessert was truly the highlight of the meal. I would come here just for dessert. Jessica was our waitress, but the busser who refilled our waters and cleared our plates, who was also named Jessica, was outstanding. The waitress Jessica was lacking on the personal side and just rattled off what she was supposed to and didn't offer much else. The busser, Jessica, gave us the personal, thoughtful touches to our meal. No amuse bouche. Seriously? or birthday dessert. Really? I guess when you're Gordon Ramsay, you don't have to do these things? Thus, the three stars and the lackluster waitress.
