- RRaeSan Francisco Bay Area •4 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoWe had a wonderful dining experience from beginning to end at Wayfare Tavern. The staff accommodated our special requests and were very gracious. The food was delicious starting with the warm popovers! Standouts for our table were the cheeseburger and the burrata mashed potatoes, but all our meals were good. The ambiance was warm and welcoming.More infoWayfare TavernPrice: Moderate• American• Financial District / Embarcadero•4.6
- MMargaretPhiladelphia County •7 reviews5.0Dined on Jan 25, 2025Those who complain on the thread about spicy food perplex me—why did they go to a Sichuan restaurant? I have a lower craving/tolerance for spice than a typical Chinese person with Sichuan roots—I like the flavor but don’t seek the heat necessarily. To me, the food at Z&Y was the appropriate level of spicy and flavorful. Actually, there’s a variety of regional specialties, and our party just ordered what we felt like without regard to trying to get a typical Sichuan meal. I had meant to book a table at Z&Y Peking Duck across the street, but I didn’t mind the mistake! I don’t live in SF, and am willing to shell it out for a Michelin fine dining experience. I found Z&Y was relatively expensive and in slightly more modest proportion to what one might expect for a typical Chinatown restaurant, but worth it due to the extremely high quality and authentic food. Decor and service style are also typical Chinatown vibe. We had to get egg rolls for the youngest adult with us, and they were crisp and tasty. Tan tan noodles had spice and subtle flavor at the same time. We ordered Peking duck and I wondered if we got the tea smoked duck, but we didn’t even complain because there was a LOT of duck and the smoky flavor was unique and delicious—and there were enough thin pancakes, sauce, cucumber, and spring onions. Pea shoots and cumin beef were very tasty. We added on Dong Po Ro (Pork Shoulder) as our last dish came to the table because we needed more food. It came to the table quickly and was melt in your mouth tender. Yes, it is very fatty, but that’s the point of this cut—if you don’t like fat, don’t get Dong Po Ro! Lots of happy accidents with this meal, wouldn’t change a thing.More infoZ & Y RestaurantPrice: Moderate• Chinese• Chinatown•4.5
- OTOpenTable DinerPortland / Oregon •3 reviews5.0Dined on Jan 11, 2025Overall had a great experience and meal at the vault. The heaters were the perfect temp. I chose the restaurant based on location near the Jay hotel and menu offerings. The crab dip was fantastic. The fried brussel sprouts were a bit burned. The risotto had great texture but I wasn't a fan of the mushrooms but that was personal taste. Overall a pleasant experience. Will try the Vault steak house next time in the city.More infoThe Vault GardenPrice: Expensive• Californian• Financial District / Embarcadero•4.3
