BOURBON STEAK San FranciscoOutstanding steak dinner!Duck fat fries compliments of the chef are amazingly good- prepared three ways with three dipping sauces- YUM! Beet salad was super fresh, ahi appetizer was excellent, prepared tableside and generous in portion. Steaks were prepared to perfection, so mouthwateringly good! Cream corn was excellent too- super sweet corn and sauce wasn't overly creamy. Beignets are to die for! Even my husband who doesn't eat dessert gobbled these down! Service was very accommodating and friendly. Took two kids with us and everyone was treated wonderfully!6/8/2013 12:00:00 AMRestaurant Find!Great food and excellent service. We went there twice and would definitely return if we are ever back in San Francisco!6/4/2013 12:00:00 AMThe steak was cooked perfect.The steak was cooked perfect. Took my father there for his 60th birthday. Three day's later he is still talking about the amazing dessert we had there!6/3/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat ambienceGot in to hotel from a day of travel and we decided to eat at this restaurant that was located in the hotel property. Their complimentary duck fries are the bomb! Had a great filet that was done perfectly. The only thing I didn't care for in this restaurant or any for that matter, is that if the restaurant is not full, why they put you right "on top" of another table dining. Maybe it's efficiency for the wait staff but it just baffles me as to why we were all shoved together in one little area when there were other tables available.6/3/2013 12:00:00 AMBe spoiltAlthough expensive, the service, quality ,variety & helpfulness of staff combined with an excellent wine list made this a most enjoyable night.
If looking for a "big night" out would thoroughly recommend.6/1/2013 12:00:00 AMFriday night in San FranciscoBourbon Steak has a historic ambiance with high ceilings and a unique menu. We got there early as the place filled up an hour later. It was rather difficult to hear conversation at our table as it was noisy...and full. The service was pretty good even though our waiter got two large tables pretty much at the same time. The food was excellent and portions were adequate. Better bring your credit card as it is pricy.5/31/2013 12:00:00 AMA Very Classy SpotWe had an early reservation after a SF event and didn't want to fight traffic back to the East Bay. Early was great - not too busy or noisy, very attentive wait staff. Steaks are always great here, sauces thoughtful, and my halibut was very tasty.5/28/2013 12:00:00 AMMy Last Visit to Bourbon Steak SFI have been to a few restaurants of Michael Mina's. I must say that this is not the best one and I am a bit disappointing with the quality of food in SF chain. As a tradition of Bourbon Steak, they served us duck fat fries which was used to be my favourite but the fries served in this SF restaurant did not have the same quality as the same ones from the other chains. The steak too is not outstanding and it was a bit dry in my opinion. My favourite is the one in Miami. The decoration is romatic and the food is awesome. If I visit SF again, I won't go to Bourbon Steak in SF again.5/22/2013 12:00:00 AMSmall complaintEverything at Bourbon steaks was great. My only small complaint was that the short ribs I ordered were too salty for my taste. My husband loved the steak he ordered. The beet and burrata salad was amazing. The ice creams and sorbets were a perfect complement to end the meal.5/22/2013 12:00:00 AMRemarkable Service, Excellent FoodI consider myself a bit of a steak aficionado, and Bourbon Steak was some of the best steak I've had the opportunity to enjoy. The service is truly perfect, a super attentive staff, this was an excellent dining experience where I felt completely taken care of.5/19/2013 12:00:00 AMBest steak in SFAmazing steaks, an incredible wine list and some of the best service I've ever encountered make this a very special place. It's currently my clear favorite in SF for a special night out on the town.5/2/2013 12:00:00 AMSpecial occassionMy wife and I went here for a special occassion and the whole restaurant really took care of us. Great service, great food, and awesome bourbon selection.4/30/2013 12:00:00 AMBourbon Steakhouse is exceptional!Bourbon Steakhouse is exceptional! The food is great, the service is impeccable, but it's a little pricey. I think they might have better identification on the street to indicate where the restaurant is, but once you realize there is no street entrance you will stumble upon the Westin Hotel on Powell St. This is a unique steakhouse. You don't get bread with the meal, but you do get bins of the most delicious French Fries and sauces you can imagine. Who needs bread! The tuna tartar requires a presentation by the server at the table to mix in some ingredients like apple pear into the tuna. That's delicious and original. The oysters were excellent as expected. The beet salad was great. And the steaks were amazing!4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMLove that they have the signatureLove that they have the signature item, fries were amazing.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMThe Flat Iron Steak, fromThe Flat Iron Steak, from Scake River Rarms, is great!4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMVery pricey, but drinks were great!Trying to find a place to eat in San Francisco on a Friday night, I ventured to Yelp and came across this restaurant. The waitress was very knowledgeable about the wine list and offered great suggestions on what to order food wise; however, my friend and I weren't in the mood to spend more than $100 on a meal.
We ordered drinks (she some wine, me, I asked that the bartender make up a drink using Hanger 1 Kaffir Lime, and boy, did he hit it out the park!) We decided to try the macaroni and cheese ($11). Definitely delicious, but for the amount given, definitely wasn't worth the price.
Overall, this would be a special occasion dining experience if I decide to go here again.4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMgreat food and the servicegreat food and the service was outstanding. servers explained what are on the menus. they also had the sample fries that went well with the dips. food came fast and tasted great. would definitely come back again next time. made my fiancee's birthday very memorable.4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMCame here with a group ofCame here with a group of coworkers and we had a nice dinner. It was a week night, so that probably made it easier for them to be flexible when we ended up being late (came in from the South Bay).
Food was so very good. Cocktails were lovely. And get the beignets for dessert!!4/18/2013 12:00:00 AMKerry and LisaWonderful in every way - food was delicious ( with exception

We LOVED it!4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMAs to be expected in a restaurantAs to be expected in a restaurant that size (with high ceilings) it was rather loud. I had to ask for my glass of wine twice before it was brought, but I could tell the server had a lot going on.
Over all, our entire party greatly enjoyed each dish we had. The food was phenomenal.4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMYum!Started with caviar and presentation was perfect, followed by exceptional taste. The steaks are amazing! All were good, however the flatiron steak was by far the best in flavor and texture. Beautiful open style restaurant within the St. Francis (old location of the Compass Rose). We would definitely recommend this for a steak lover!4/10/2013 12:00:00 AMPerfect experience. WonderfulPerfect experience. Wonderful ambiance. The steak was perfectly prepared, and sliced like butter. Excellent, proficient, amiable service. Accommodating of food allergies and preferences. If there is any criticism it would be their preparation of brussel sprouts, which was overdone and lacked originality.4/8/2013 12:00:00 AMMouth watering good steaksWe love Bourbon Steak!! It was my husband's 30th birthday and I wanted to take him out for a special dinner. It was just perfect. We've haven't been in almost a year, so their menu changed a little. We both had the Rib Cap, every bite was better than the last. If you have never had a Rib Cap you should have one. Divine.3/25/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellentGreat experience. Went for my seven year anniversary and couldn't have been better. Service was knowledgeable and timely. Rib Cap Steak was literally the best steak I had in my life. Appetizers and desserts were excellent. Wine list and Bourbon list had plenty of selection for the various tastes.3/25/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat GF/Special Occasion PlaceIt was a wonderful way to dine in the City after a matinee performance of Jersey Boys. Our waiter was fabulous, and the chef was marvelous at preparing gluten-free fare! It's pretty pricey, so be prepared. However, it's a great place to go if you want to indulge yourself or if you have a special occasion.3/24/2013 12:00:00 AMOutstanding food and service,Outstanding food and service, very helpful sommelier.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMThe food was excellent - oneThe food was excellent - one of the best steaks I've ever had.

I had the tuna tartar which fkavors were perfectly balanced and then finished off with the bone-in ribeye which was tender and flavorful and cooked to perfection. Our server, Olivia, was knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. The restaurant is a bit pricey but a truly wonderful experience.1/4/2013 12:00:00 AMSurprisingly good; landmark bldg.Surprisingly good food in landmark building. Even with all the great restaurants in SF, I'd put this in a top tier. You must try two things: the fries and the lobster pot pie. Yes, I know it's a steakhouse but trust me. Heaven on a brandy-cream-sauce-coated fork.1/1/0001 4:00:00 PMBon AppetiteBourbon Steak is a gem. Food quality and service were exceptional. Prices are high, yet worth the experience.1/1/0001 4:00:00 PM
