"Nice meal, but it wasn't outstanding. I had high expectations as it's my friend's favorite SF restaurant. We got there late and felt hurried to get out of there."

"There were 4 in our group, having dinner before our play at A.C.T. We all enjoyed our tasty but chewy spinach salads.... and our very good main courses. The service was friendly and efficient; the restaurant was busy and a bit noisy. We found free on-the-street parking and easily walked to the Geary St. Theater."

"When I am seated in a restaurant and immediately feel that there are about 40% more tables than the space allows it sends a foreboding message, I.E. that the business cares more about profit than much else. This was the case here. We were shoehorned in, and the wait staff had to contort there way to and fro as we shifted awkwardly to accommodate them. The food was also a let down. The salad seemed mass produced, and my Salmon Ravioli were smoke and salt bombs. The only positive note was the staff. They were polite, attentive and well presented. I would not return nor recommend this place."

"I love Kuleto's, I've never had a bad meal there. I always bring out of town guests & family
The service is always friendly and prompt. I took a friend there for her birthday & we split a spinach salad (never an extra charge) it was fabulous and we both had the veal with caper sauce & and side of their amazingly wonderful white polenta. It is the best I've ever had. I will continue to go back. I live in the East Bay & take BART. Just a short walk from the Powell St. station."
