- DJchefDJVIPGreater Boston •63 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe had the most exquisite dining experience we have ever had at birdsong last night. Each course was so intricate with all the components, crafted into a delicious little sample of halibut, or abalone or quail or a tiny salad with petals of a flower, a sprig of fennel, a herb leaf all together to make a hard to describe salad. Chef Chris checked dishes as they came out and his team worked together to provide an outstanding array of courses that made us marvel at how he created them. I also appreciate how he adapted things to accommodate my gluten sensitivity. We were thoroughly impressed.More infoBirdsongPrice: Very Expensive• American• SOMA•4.9

The Lobster rolls are off the hook, order them alongside a bottle of Champagne and a better lunch cannot be had.More infoAngler San FranciscoPrice: Very Expensive• American• Financial District / Embarcadero•4.7
- GGiovanna1 review5.0Dined on May 1, 2025During a recent client gathering at Bistro 888, located within the InterContinental San Francisco, we were thoroughly impressed by the sophisticated ambiance, exceptional service, and delightful offerings. The lounge's contemporary design, with warm lighting and comfortable seating, provided an ideal setting for both relaxed conversations and professional engagements. The happy hour menu showcased a variety of artisanal cocktails and gourmet small plates. The cocktail selection was equally impressive, with unique options like the Italian Mojito and Eau De Vin, offering a refreshing twist on classic favorites. Service was attentive and knowledgeable, with staff ensuring our experience was seamless from start to finish. Bistro 888's upscale atmosphere, delectable menu, and outstanding service make it a top choice for business gatherings and social occasions. We look forward to returning and highly recommend it to anyone seeking a refined happy hour experience in San Francisco.More infoBISTRO 888Price: Expensive• Californian• SOMA•4.4
